♥ update
Today's CNY-eve and looking forward to reunion dinner later! :)
Helped mommy to spring-clean the house, vacuumed & mopped - it's tiring! but feeling satisfied. And then I fell asleep while trying to study abit of my Chinese lit.
Had a good 'talk' with Dad; asked him about China's history(cos it was related to what I'm studying) and he's just like a tap, that keeps on flowing and flowing. But I really learnt something from him, enhanced my knowledge so much on China's history.
The past 2 weeks.. Hmm ups & downs.
Built up a momentum on prayer and it really worked wonders. God showed me a few visions that are so clear that they kept flashing thru' my mind. One exceptionally powerful one happened on my way to school, while I was listening to a chinese worship song. Walking through the corridors of the classrooms in school, the presence of the Holy Spirit could be felt so strongly, my hair were all standing, and it went on for quite a while. It was so precious! That scene in my mind, I will carry in my heart and never forget.
Just as everything seems well and things are getting better. For this week, I suddenly felt weaker, I don't know how to explain but there's just this sudden tiredness and restlessness. Quite a bit of negative feelings and I kept reminding myself to practice mindfulness, but it was not workable. Shared with Fungqi and although it's just a casual conversation but she really affirms me.
With a bigger vision comes bigger obstacles and restrictions. The force and power of Satan - I will not succumb to it! I will not bow down! I will press on and fight till the end. I can sense persecution coming but I don't care anymore. Or in fact it has arrived. I only know one thing so strong in my heart, that is I will be unashamed about my love & passion for Christ. I will not hide it just to please men or the world.
The stronger your force, the firmer I stand!
Favor with God, then favor with men. I learnt my lesson; relevance with mankind.
He who is in me is stronger that he who is in the world. By faith I am strong. I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.
No longer I who lives but Christ who lives in me, I will depend on His might!
