August update: All I have is Christ.

I can't really believe that August is coming to an end and September is here tomorrow. T-minus 9 days until I write le UFE......!!! It's again a nerve-wrecking process, and I am no where close to being "ready". Do I have what it takes to pass? I do not know... I am pretty excited to be done, to finally finish my UFE race, and to begin my full-time career. I'm not exactly excited for the job aspect but more of my after work-hours - you know, to do things I want to do :P hehehheeh. Mmm, to sum up this month, it will have to be studying, studying, studying and studying. But even with the studying, I was able to do a lot more on the evenings and weekends. One thing that sticks out is women's group (I will have to write another post about this after the UFE because I learned a lot from doing a book study with the ladiesss this summer!!). Another thing is being able to encourage and support people who are going through tough situations. We all deal with uncertainty about the future - whether we will fail the UFE, lose our jobs, someone not having a FT job, or not being able to go to missions, or not being able to do anything at all, etc. But despite all these worries and uncertainties, we have Christ. So even if I fail this and that - I have Christ. Knowing that I have Christ, the outcome doesn't matter anymore, but more of the progress getting to the outcome - that I'm trusting in God and being patient. So in the end, no matter what happens, we shall rejoice in the good and in the bad; we shall give thanks in the good and in the bad; and we shall pray in the good and in the bad (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18). Let's ultimately continue to glorify God in our lives :)

"Hallelujah, all I have is Christ.

Hallelujah, Jesus is my life."
