Blessings

Hi fellas... =). How are you today? It has been 5 days already since the "school" started. I was so enthusiastic with everything here, including the classes. However, a lot of difficulties i have encountered, really lots of them. Finally, now i understand why they said that high school life is easier.

The assignments are in papers and readings... As a Biola student, I need to take one bible class and it was pretty hectic. You need to THINK... You need to reflect about the books and the bible passage and watsoever... i still can't get it eventhough i read the syllabus for hundreds of time. =(. There is no exam though for this class, but it requires a lot of works.

I also spend 3 hours in library on SATURDAY, reading some books and articles, and yet, i only understand one of them.. phew... everything is very difficult because it is in English. *sigh. I was so desperate then... i don't know what to do. I am so bad at writing and i don't like to read. Failing the class maybe will be the biggest chance i have. =.='... helppp....

Lacucaracha lacucaracha... i should change my thought anyway.. need to study harder.. manage my time wisely. I believe everything will go well if I surrender everything to God besides studying with efforts. =).

Here's the song that quite popular these days... =)

We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
It's not our home

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching(s) of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise





Blessings,
