Hi guys. thanks for participating

Well.. exam is really over already, and i guess we should really thank God for it.

you know how sometimes we dread exams... but coming to think of it, I somehow or rather think it could be a blessing in disguise

the weeks before the finals had been a busy one, so many activities, so many happenings, sometimes i even get so tired that i forget to brush my teeth before going to sleep;)

but then when exams came, i notice a significant change in my lifestyle. since there was no need to worry about stress from YOU GUYS for the time being, i could take the time to reorganize my life while studying sejarah.

I really thank God for this long one month period that he blessed all of us with, that I could use to refocus myself on Him more.

without all the burdens weighing down on my shoulders, I suddenly realise how amazing God is. it is really amazing.

you know sometimes how we get so caught up in all that we do until we forgot to turn to God? i believe the same happened to me. i struggled everyday, trying to do everything by my own strength, trying to achieve everything by myself, how selfish sometimes we can get. and because of that, i grew weary and tired. sometimes, i don't even feel like getting up to go to school.

then when the exams came, I was suddenly DISPLACED from my state of mind. without the trouble of other things CLOGGING up my mind, i suddenly felt.... blank... (i dont know how to describe it)

I believe that God was at work then and now, because he used that opportunity to fill my mind with HIM. I began to realise where I was standing and how I have become. i was made aware of how frail we humans are, but most importantly how great GOD is.

MAtthew 6:33, ' But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all this things will be given to you as well'

I believe that passage struck deep in me. and that was the most amazing thing of my life, not good marks, not successful ventures, but realising the beauty of God. thank GOD for his grace

I pray continuously that God will bless all of us, that we would not be bounded by worldly things, but be reminded of HIM each day.

remember the last prayer request I made, well, i believe GOd answered it in the most amazing way possible.

My grandmother was really sick, and my family didnt know what to do but pray. She was really suffering. but God blessed her and receive her back into his fold last thursday. according to my mother who was at her death bed, grandma was at total peace when she breathe her last. suffering was gone from her eyes and she laid there peacefully. miraculousy, her swellings even subsided. as my mum puts it, it was like God has taken away all her sufferings. and I thank God for that.

Praise GOd
