Recently I have looked back at my life. And realized God's beautiful planning and timing in my life. His timing is perfect. I feel so blessed to have Him in control, because everything just fits together like a puzzle. I was most touched that God really used a lot of events/things to prepare my heart when I had the heart to pursue Him. I must admit that I didnt always have a heart for God. But um...reading my past diary entries since grade 6 lol. God has kept me, and never gave up on me.
Well..on to today, I took some time with God. To be alone with Him. I have really been lacking that this week or so. I needed today.
My one hour break from classes was well spent. I walked slowly with God outside. I am really surprising myself, because recently I prefered going outside rather than staying inside. Before I wouldn't mind going outside, but I prefered to stay inside because there are less distractions. But now, I think I trained myself to enjoy God outside, and it really is more enjoyable when you are not so constrained in a room or building. Anyways...back to my walk with God lol.
That one hour, I spent singing to Him, and worshiping. It felt so refreshing. God gave me a quiet spot too, where no one really goes in SFU. And it was beautiful.
I was also reflecting back on my life...again. And how blessed I am. How His love to me shown in all the stages of my life. How much He's changed me, to be a better person, and more importantly, to be closer to Him. Man, we are soooo very blessed to obtain such an amazing love! And as I grow older, I'll bet I'll get to understand this love even more. I am excited! It's only been like less than 19 years, and He has done so much! The path ahead is going to be soo glorious!
Other than that I also started to think about my Birthday wishes.
I feel loved =) I've already had two Bday celebrations haha. One of which was yesterday with my homestay parents. We had hotpot and they even bought me a cute little cake! It was so sweet of them.
My parents are also coming for my Bday. Oh how blessed I am.
Ok back to today haha. After school...I was supposed to go to the gym to exercise, but it was fully booked, like all the machines and stuff, so I decided to spend more time alone with God. I went by the bay...or whatever you call it. It was really foggy, but I really enjoyed it. I really thought about turning nineteen. I was really thinking...I will only be nineteen once. I can never go back and be fifteen, or sixteen again, and change the past. Whats done is done, and if I dont use my days for God, its gone forever. Therefore, I really need to treasure my days. Treasure my last days of being eighteen, treasre when I am nineteen, and walk on the path that God wants me to take. Because once its gone, its gone. I started to pray for myself, and I realized that I had a lot to improve on. But the Lord assured me that He will listen to my prayers, and help me improve, if I do my part too.
Life is so wonderful and beautiful with God. Only in HIM can I find true joy, true love, and true rest.
Whaaa, 10 days-
