Chasing pavements... with God.


Photos from Fel's photoshoot :D Was a lovely one, really. Thanks Fels for the lovely shots!


Recently I have really felt the Spirit flow, flow, flow.
Suddenly, area's in my life are improving. I prayed forever for my drama monologue and I have FAITH that I'm gonna see a breakthrough today for my devised monologue. I drew the monologue from my own experience about death.


And tonight, for H2o+, I'm presenting "This Is Our God" and "High And Lifted Up" from the new hillsong album This Is Our God with Edward...songs that have really impacted me during this time. My quiet time is full of the Spirit, I got goosebumps while praising to With Everything.




And studying. Phew! I'm almost done with Bio for the first time, and I've stopped comparing what I've studied with what everyone else has studied. Everyone has been asking everyone how much they have and as Meishi said, it's quite stupid. Most of the time, we only do that to make ourselves feel better when we've studied more (or worse when we haven't). I guess its a way to comfort oneself. But ultimately, its really not about how fast you've studied.


I've prayed and prayed, asking God to help me absorb things and though I started off quite slow, I absorbed a lot! And somehow, although there didn't seem to be enough time, He's made it such that there is!


Goodness. Quiet Time has led to reflections and acceptance of my emotions. A few weeks ago, I made the decision, yet again, to move on, but this time, full-head on, a new discovery spurring me on. To leave that person behind and say No, it's enough. I'm done here.


Its been a long 9-month struggle, yes? I finally received my answers to questions I had been asking.

All my questions answered, though they weren't very pleasant ones. I accepted them and I
won't say I've completely moved on, but I have made some progress. God's helping me every step of the way, reminding me he has it all in his hands and the times when I feel like I'm drowning under water, that I just have to trust it into his hands.

Just when I thought it was easy to forget, of course that person pops up again but I've had the strength of will to tell myself You're not going down that path again. And to stop that weakness that kept me going back in the past.




There are a few people I'd like to thank... this has been quite a turbulent time for me, accepting and healing. Healing, a lot.


Freda, for being my ever-loving friend who has seen me through and understands me sometimes more than I understand herself.

Meishi- for bringing God into school life and never giving up on me.


My family, especially mum and dad and andrew who have been really understanding and allowing good communication to flow- another grace God has given.


eXcess; for beinng God-loving people and letting God manifest himself so strongly in our relationships.


Jo; for listening with understanding and empathy; for really being that listening and sympathetic ear.
