Jus discovered a super nice Quiet time method. Listen to RBC ministry, just like how my mum listen to the radio every morning. Now I understand why my mum always listen. :) My mum is the best. I love her the most, because she is the best mum in the world. Thanks Mummy.
Back to the QT, the lesson learnt is that sometimes our problems seem to be bigger than God. The starting question is : Question: When is a bird bigger than a mountain? Answer: When the bird is closer than the mountain. In reality, the bird is not bigger than the mountain, but it sure looks that way when the feathery fellow is perched on my window ledge and the mountain is far away in the distance.
It is the same thing for our daily lives. Whenever we face huge tasks or difficulties, it seems like God is so small. Problems can exist in many forms, ranging from work, relationships to small issues. No problem is bigger than God. That includes the pilot problem my brother may be facing, unsure of how to overcome the test, unsure of how to get through the pilot selection. My brother is very strong and capable in terms of ability and determination. However, a pilot test is very different from what he may perceive it to be. You have to be able to stand G-forces and visualise things from a different angle. So brother, I pray that you will learn to depend on God rather than yourself. Don't forget that God is zillion times bigger than your pilot test. :)
For myself, I realise I have a BGR problem. My mind starts to wander to which girl I should pursue in Singapore. I am very clear that my relationship should start from a Christian perspective. The reason is because if I get involved with a Non-Christian girl, it is against what God commanded and there will be many differences in terms of opinion and beliefs. Next, for the practical issue, the timing has to be right, the other person has to be ready, the place has to be conducive. Many a times I missed out on timing. Because I wait too long for the Lord, and the girl zoomed passed me. If not, I become too impulsive and start to write song for the the girl I think I like. Perhaps its infatuation, perhaps its first love, perhaps its irrational.
I remember reading that Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy and it does not boast. I am learning to be patient and wait upon God to show me what I should do and how to show love to people around me. These people include my roommates Sasha, Vlad, Jan and Jen. Not only those, they also include my classmates who are mostly Taiwanese and I am the only Singaporean. The lone Ranger from Singapore. :)
Lastly, I want to end off today's writing by saying that God is Good, All the TIme. & All the Time, ?? Its Don Moen's classic, all ANgorians should know. HAhah
