Spring 2011

I have been praying Psalm 51:12 since the beginning of the year. And God definitely answered it. In many many amazing ways.

"Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me."
-- Psalm 51:12

1. He taught and is teaching me how to forgive. The previous semester has left me with bitterness and unforgiveness in my heart toward a person. It was very ugly and I can't tell you how much it hurts. Both of us. But the Lord is good and has revealed to me that I need to ask forgiveness from this person, that I should restore my relationship with the person. I can't explain how much I struggled to just put down my pride and stubbornness to apologize. But God totally set me free from that! I felt so much freedom after letting God to take care of the situation instead of me trying to take control of it. My heart was so broken but He is willing to give me a new heart. And I am so grateful that God has restored this friendship, which I will cherish forever.

2. Asian life group is just another testimony of God's faithfulness and how He can work things out for us. He carries all our burden whenever we are willing to yield to His will. I have been talking a lot about the life group so I think I don't have to say much here anymore. Haha.

3. Dicipleship. I started to really love my dicipleship group. I love how we share lives with each other. That I know I can rely on these two amazing ladies whenever I need help. I can even call them in the middle of the night whenever I need prayers. I can be completely broken in front of them and cry my lungs out. I totally believe that God has sent them in my life to help me, as a tangible way to show me how much He loves and cares about me.

4. This is kind of like a little secret (erm... maybe not anymore) that I don't tell many people. I am serving in the worship team at Chi Alpha as well. I would be lying if I would to say that I have never thought of wanting to be in the worship team. That is kind of like a desire I hide in my heart but never thought anyone will notice it. But I was so wrong because God noticed it! I was asked early in the semester if I would like to join the worship team, which is completely a surprise to me. With a voice that my family used to laugh at (that I cannot sing), I am now singing for the Lord in the worship team, and sometimes, playing piano too. This just showed me how willing and eager God is to meet our heart desires. He is not a mean boss that select whom of His servants can serve Him and whom cannot. He welcomes everyone. And He takes delight in each one of us, His beautiful creation, molded in His own image.

5. And there is another journey that God has taken me along since last semester. Another secret that not many people know about. Which needs a complete new post for itself. Which will only be revealed once I am completely out of this place. Just a little more time friends, I will be sharing this testimony with you. I am eagerly waiting for the day to come.

There are so many other things that God has done throughout this semester. He never cease working in our lives. I am excited for the summer to see what He has in store for me and you =)
