Exams are nearing and the pressure is on. it doesn't help that Brian's counting down...lol luckily I don't see him every day like how Cheryl does. Well God has been very consistent this past week in reminding me that salvation isn't through works. Amen to that!!! It first came up during Joey's teaching on Philippians during lifegroup on Friday and then during Pastor Bryan's sermon on Sat. Hmm...too much of a coincidence right!!!!

Another thing that I've been wondering about this past week is the gift of tongues. I've been asking myself the reason behind my desire for it. Is it because of peer pressure? Is it because I want self gratification? Or is it because I desire to have a closer relationship with God? Well...I'm still in the midst of sorting that out and I know we should always ask for things with the rift attitude and mindset. I acknowledge that God is Sovereign and will do what He thinks is right and good for me in His own time. My attitude now is that of God I desire it and if You think it is right, you'll give it to me but if You don't I'm fine with it.

Another thing on my heart is Unidas. Though I haven't been attending Hope Church Brisbane for long but I feel that it is worth investing in Unidas. It is because I see the value in it and I share the heartbeat and vision of wanting to impact the community. I do not know how log my stay in Australia will be but I want to leave a legacy behind and I know I can do that through Unidas. It's an exciting journey with God and I'll see where He'll lead me to next.
