Oooohhh man... exams are killing me.. ever since exams started i've had no life at all.. the only things i've been doing is study, study, and more study..i wake up at 8-9am do devotions for a while then head off to the library to study. All the way till 7-8pm before the library closes then head home to want to do more studies, but whenever i get home i'm always too tired to even think of studying and i end up wasting an hour or two doing pointless stuff then getting frustrated at myself at the end of it for wasting precious time. Do more studies then head off to bed at 12-1am, praying for a good night's sleep so that when i wake up the next day i won't be too tired to study. That's pretty much been my life for the past two weeks, and the worse thing is that time is getting shorter and shorter, and the exams seem to get harder and harder till the point that all i want to do is just to be able to pass this semester and thank God for it. Blehh..3 more exams to go, Sat, Tues, and Thurs all morning papers..i should be alright for the saturday paper, and if i study really hard on saturday arvo/night and monday, i should be able to pass my tuesday paper..but then my thursday paper..right now im at 0%..tried studying for it soo many times before, but it seems that everytime after studying, i don't seem to remember a single thing that i read. I've pretty much got one and a half days to understand the whole macroeconomics concept, tues and weds(which currently makes 0 sense to me at all..why am i even in commerce..), and it's also partly my fault since i should be doing microeconomics before doing macroeconomics, and since i didn't know anything about it when i was selecting my courses, im practically learning how to run before even knowing how to crawl in one and a half days!! How exciting! Me passing this semester itself is going to be a miracle that i can't wait for it to happen!
Not to mention that my spiritual life isn't exactly 100% too, there's also things where i gotta improve on and gotta change. And with the whole transitioning into g12 with the whole spiritual father thing is which isn't getting any easier, and a whole lot of other problems that im constantly praying for.. Now especially with the upcoming revival that no one wants to miss out on, we gotta get more involved with God's buisness and turn from participators into load carriers, and with people saying things everywhere isn't lightening the load but seems to make it heavier..arggh i just need more of God in my life..
With Christ in the vessel we can smile at the storm, as we go sailing home..great song, but really hard to live..
Anyway gotta do more studies after this so gotta be quick with this. Devotion this morning was from 1 Cor 7:20-24.
20 Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called. 21 Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it. 22 For he who is called in the Lord while a slave is the Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who is called while free is Christ’s slave. 23 You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men. 24 Brethren, let each one remain with God in that state in which he was called.
hmmm i read this when i just woke up so i don't know what i was thinking then..but reading it again, it makes me realise that i've become sort of like a 'slave' to men/world. Being so caught up in my studies, which is indeed important, and many times forgetting that God can help us in our exams too..but God won't help us if we don't study for our exams and put our effort into it, and we gotta live a life of excellence, doing well in everything we do and giving it our 100%. Like my mum used to tell me, we're not glorifying if we're always doing badly at uni or failing..My aim is to glorify God in all that i do, but its definitely not easy..So if i want God to help me in my exams, i gotta give my 100% to studies, but at the same time i also have to give God my 100% too because without God I'm nothing..but if i add it up it equates to 200%!!! haha i really need to depend on God for the other 100% on top of my own 100%..once these two weeks are over, its gonna be hillsong all the way!!+ more free time to play drums/learn guitar, and building myself up in God. But i really need to lift the next week into God's hands, with my exam on saturday a course with a fail rate of 70% from past years..Its time for God to shine!
God of all days, Glorious in all of Your ways, the majesty the wonder and grace, in light of Your name..

That was a big vent, law law :)
To be a champion you need to speak like a champion. To speak like a champion you need to think like a champion. To think like a champion you need to know that the Word.
God says it.
You believe it.
That settles it.
Don't doubt. Only believe. Speak strength. Speak life. Speak peace.
You will have whatever you say.
[Mark 11:22-24].
When Peter saw Jesus & heard His words, Peter walked on water.
When Peter looked at the waves he sank. You will find strength in the storm when your eyes aren't on the problem, but on the solution.
