While pondering...

It occurs to me that i should 'journal'' this journey so that the 'forgetful' me can look back on days when i need it and remember how good God is...'tracing' His hands in leading me...may it also be a testimony for His glory and goodness if one day i get to share it...
This journey started more than 8 years ago...it was sparked by an article in a youth devotional magazine...an article shared by a youth who went and helped build a facility in a developing country...strangely or probably divinely, it stirs my heart and excites me to go forth to do the same...that's how the journey into teaching begins...
With God's grace, i've come to the end of the 8 years of nie and teaching bond...i've got the qualification to teach and the experience to go with it that i hope will come into good use and be a platform for outreach.
But now, this journey seemed to have taken a new facet...it's like a new milestone...a crossroad and a step that will change the course of the whole journey...
It's like mountain-climbing...just like "Much-Afraid"...you want to climb to the submmit...but the higher you climb, the steeper it becomes...it is more difficult and challenging or even dangerous...but there is also a new scenery and a new perspective...
Like "Much-Afraid", i am much afraid but God reminds me that it is not me but Him who will do it...He will accomplish His purpose...it is His work...i only need to be the willing instrument...
So many things have been going through my mind in a matter of these few short weeks...so maybe it was God who allowed me to go through all these and consider all these...
1. Jean's verse to me: Luke 9:62
62Jesus said to him, (A) "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God."
2. Lay Hoon giving me my mum's perspective
3. Nancy's advice to reunite my parents' relationship and getting both my parents' blessings
But i also give thanks that God has given me people around me to pray with me...Sis Claire...Lay Khim...Fanny...Chris & Shirley hopefully...Nancy & the DG...
