thinking in progress
This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
There comes a point in time when erring on the side of safety due to uncertainty results in lost opportunity.
Have the faith to accept it when He says no.
I guess this puts an end to any hope of being a pilot. Nevertheless, I believe that it is all part of God’s plan and although I am somewhat disappointed, I know that I need not worry about whatever happens for it has all been taken care of by Him.
I possibly have an interview for NUS Concurrent Degree Programme and I do have the PSC Interview Board next Monday. I am going to submit them to Him and try my best but if He has better plans for me, may they come to pass!
I only have You to trust in to see me through. Lord, I pray that I’d be obedient to Your will.
Note to self:
If you try your best but you don’t succeed, God has something much greater in store for you.
it’s about the man next to you. that’s what NS is really about.
there’s no bigger picture in the toughest of times, no deep patriotism or keeping in mind why we serve.
there’s really only the guy next to you.
In everything, give thanks to God.
Was my intention truly noble, or was I just lying to myself.
I’m so impressed by the passion and bravery of the Italian activists who freed 30 beagles from Green Hill, a massive, hellish breeding farm that supplies dogs to vivisection labs.
Because of their loving and forgiving nature, beagles are commonly tested on all across the world (notoriously by cigarette companies, with the exception of American Spirits). Unfortunately, a few of the beagles were confiscated and returned to their prison, but they will not be forgotten. My hope is that their story and their sacrifice will be shared and publicized so that people will open their hearts and eyes and stand up against unreliable, unjustified animal testing.
Keep being awesome, Italians.
It’s hard to press on when uncertainty suddenly shrouds your path and the people beside you encourage the doubts.
Me of little faith
It seems that I have to constantly remind myself that everything happens for a reason and God places us in situations to allow us to grow. I have never dreaded something that I wanted. At least I will enter with the assurance that God is with me and although I may forget that at times, He will never forget me. At the end I hope I will be able to say “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the Faith”.
Deuteronomy 31:8 - “The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
What does it mean to surrender all
