Psalms 34

I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears,
Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered in shame.

Today, I went to church with a heavy heart, and even hesitated about going for service. Normally, I'm on high every day, and even more so on sundays no idea why I felt so down on sunday before service. I contemplated turning back home to go chiong for MYE instead. But decided to go, I didn't know why either. I've been depressed for 2 entire days, mostly from the stress of MYE, pressure to perform well, lack of time to study, lack of motivation etc. I felt that I haven't even entered the battle and already felt like I've lost halfway through. I FEARED that I couldn't pass my exams with flying colours.

However, I'm glad I went for service (: Today's sermon+service was so apt!!!

I feared that I would fail, I feared that I wouldn't do up to my expectations hence somehow, I've led Satan to alienate me and feel me with loneliness and despair.

BUT NO LONGER! cos, I'll stay close to God and my spiritual family.

I'll briefly go through the points of Pastor Khong's sermon.

(1) You have hope! -overcoming hopelessness
Indeed I'm gonna claim the hope that God has given when Jesus died for us.
I'm not gonna be afraid about tomorrow.
Because Ephesians 1:18 says " ....know the HOPE to which he has called you"
I'll continue praying and not stop fighting the work of the devil.

(2) You have a destiny -overcoming aimlessness.
I just felt a new sense of direction in my life.
Life does hold a tomorrow that we can look forward to.
And I'm gonna look forward to every tomorrow.
No words of discouragement can bring me down.

(3) You are an overcomer -overcoming hopelessness.
Pastor Khong shared some phrases which made a lot of sense but I only remembered some heee.

" failure doesn't mean that you are inferior, it means that you are not perfect."
" failure does not mean we have failed, but we have yet to succeed"
" when we fail it means that God has better plans!"

so amazing. so whenever I fail, I'll remember that God has better plans.

So this exams, I'm gonna just do my best in my revision and commit my fears and other every area to God. I'm gonna just trust God. =D Thank God for renewing my hope, for lifting my spirits up. I'm gonna seek God above all else.

1 Timothy 6:6
Godliness with contentment is great gain.

I'll be happy with where I am, what I am and what the Lord has blessed me with.


-my comfort my shelter-
-tower of refuge and strength-
