(no subject)
this past few days have been a whirl of exhilarating moments (:
but at the back of my mind, this thought gnaws away: "am i pleasing God in all that i'm doing?"
i believe, it is time to talk to my mom again.
in other news, THANK GOD for His very timely blessings, indeed God is good (:
i remember feeling super stressed out about mock trials on monday when i came back after the weekend and realised there was so much more to the mock trial problem than i thought there was.
and i felt this immense sense of hopelessness and helplessness because i know i'm not good at these kinds of things - mock trials and moots; basically litigation.
sitting in the library after property lecture i suddenly felt so overwhelmed by the stress and anxiety that i just could not focus on mugging. so i prayed.
i prayed for peace, i prayed for trust. i prayed for faith to know and believe that God was in control of all this. that just as He brought me through my moot, he will likewise bring me through my mock trial. i prayed for wisdom. i prayed that i would feel His presence, that i would experience His guiding and leading hand upon me.
and i felt at peace after i prayed (: i was able to finish up remedies for minority shareholders for company law that day.
and the next day, God also sent dear paul who helped aiwern and i see the light for our mock trial problem.
and suddenly, the defence case doesn't seem so cui anymore. suddenly, i don't feel as if i'm fighting a losing case. suddenly, i feel this renewed sense of vigour and confidence.
and i just wanna say, THANK YOU LORD. for indeed as You have promised, You will be faithful, You will provide a way, if only we believe.
and as ernie says, prayer works wonders (:
so Lord, i await my mock trial on friday with silent eager expectation, trusting that You will be by my side all the way (:
(prayers for me for my mock trial will be much appreciated!)
