Today, we got back our exam papers to check. So we also know how we fare for our year-end exams.
Good News - I PASSED ALL MY EXAMS!!! =D =] =) ;)
Sad News - I think I deproved for nearly all my subjects and to me (but not to my frens) my marks aren't very good =(
But to God be the Glory! At least I didnt get as badly as i thought i would get, and so i'm glad about that. Another good news for today... ... my teacher is treating me and my frens to Swenson! Yea!
He promised to treat us to Swenson to reward us for our hard work put in during our school carnival and also because we did quite a good job in our sales. We actually thought that it was a 'hollow promise' (as i call it) meaning that he was only joking with us. But we're receiving his treat this wk. yEA!!!
===========================
Last Saturday, i was in a weird mood. We usually start the service by praising God with our voices (singing). But on that faithful day, i just wasnt in the mood to praise God. My songs were sung half-heartedly. I knew that I am disappointing God and I was like lying through my singing as it just wasnt from my heart. As i started to check on myself, I remembered what a pastor said in a sermon just a few months back.
He was sharing with us about worship. He says that we are to worship God no matter what circumstances and situations we are going through, and no matter what/how we are feeling. But a phrase he said made me think. "Even when we don't feel like worshipping Him, is He than less worthy of our praise?" And i knew the answer perfectly well.
So, I started praying, asking God to just renew my heart and refresh me with His presence. And i made an effort to "get in the mood". Especially after the song "This is how we overcome"my heart was really just singing and worshipping God, nothing holding me back from God anymore. Praise God

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
( It goes something like this)
Your Light broke through my Night
Restore Exceeding Joy
Your Grace fell like the Rain
And made this desert sing
You have turned
My mourning into dancing
You have turned
My sorrow into Joy
This is How we Overcome
(repeated several times)
