Hi everybody
Hello brothers and sisters.. this is Flince typing from home.. Thanks a lot to Joyce for making this blog.. Not an easy skill.. haha me still trying to figure out how to do blog skins and chatboxes and all that (or rather, used to, now I stopped blogging for a while ald).
Just want to wish everybody jiayou for the upcoming sem.. everybody walking around with stressed faces recently.. Like what the famous verse in Psalms 23 says, "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." (KJV, I like the traditional version, paiseh)
Think I've seen more and more friends around me, both Christians and non-Christians, walking through their individual dark valleys nowadays.. Though I consider my life to be unusually blessed - almost nothing bad happens to me, think the days ahead of me will be getting more and more challenging, as I start to sort out various things in my life.
But.. "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever." With that promise of better things to come, let us take comfort in our struggles, and do not forget to be happy with what we are now and what we have..
A bit solemn, sorry. Cos one of my oldest friend's father just passed away a few months back. He was living with his dad only, and is still schooling in university, with loans to pay. Think in our age, we (as a generation) all don't really appreciate our parents enough. Again, I consider myself lucky in the sense that since I don't see them months in a row, I tend to pay more attention to them when they are at home. But still, wish I coud cherish them more.
Blah, anyway, jiayou all~! Let's all do give our best to glorify God.. don't overstress yourselves though woh. =)
