Time is a strange thing. One moment its here, and the next it's gone, and we're left thinking what could have been. People have different ways of viewing time, and it affects their perception to a certain extent. I always tell myself this time next week, where will I be. And before I know it, I'm there. It never seizes to amaze me that as fast as time seems to fly by, I am always prepared for what is to come. OK, so perhaps I plan ahead sometimes, but just last week I had not done any of my exams, and I could not even imagine how I'd get through, and now I've got one paper left, and I've got confidence that it will turn out well. My friend who is doing the same paper this Wednesday, and I think has studied for it more than me is very worried. Too worried if you ask me.
What I'm trying to say is that all this could not have been possible without God.
I used to think quiet time was a chore, that I had to squeeze time out just to read the bible. But now, I can't imagine a day not reading the bible, or a night not praying to God. In a way I think studying here in Australia has opened up my spiritual life. Perhaps its uni, perhaps its fewer restrictions with school life. So I shall stop here before my anger towards the Singapore education system flares up again.
