Monday, July 16, 2007: almost over...
and so the two weeks of holidays are almost up; strangely i dont feel any longing to stay here. its also strange how many good days there were just in these two weeks, yet today just made the whole holiday feel miserable. today, i went visiting, just to say bye to some friends, yet they felt so foreign and distant. i guess that's what studying overseas does to you.
was just reminded of something as i walked to the bus stop: in everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven. Ecc 3:1
it was hard reminding myself that where i am now is where God wants me to be. to step out of what was my comfort zone, something that i was part of, and to sacrifice what i could have done to the plans that God laid ahead for me. yet i look at the things that God has put in my life, and i realise how much so God had, and still is, cared/caring for me. He put so many friends and things in my life so that i wouldnt be alone.
but just today, it was tough, it was so so tough trusting in God.
moodswings aside, i'll be getting back to perth in 3 days! so many things to look forward to, glenna's party, teaching at crossroads, and then finally 2nd sem starts next mon. okay so maybe i'm not looking forward to school. but i guess i'm missing company (: i cant wait to embrace another sem down under because i dont think there's anywhere else i'd really want to be now.
a shout of praise.
