Finally found the time from work and studies to update my blog once more. Its a bit funny to keep both a personal handwritten journal and an online blog. Though the events of my life are repeated twice, (being one who is always long winded) my journal is always twice and sometimes thrice the length of my blog. Yeah i got to admit that i still feel a tad insecure abt revealing too much online having heard of many 'horror' stories from the media and of course, a couple real life encounters. Anyways....the upload on my life......
Still working as usual.....got scolded the second time by my 7th week.......boss still usued the same words on me......'stupid', 'brainless' etc.....however this time round i'm not the onli one that made a mistake but is shared btw the four of us (TP intern students) and my boss fault(partially).....abt what happened? ....long story.....maybe share it the next time we meet up. Anyways, after being 'screamed' at by my supervisor the second time, i realised that i had finally came to accept the harsh reality of working in the fast pace hectic life. The responsibilities to carry, the constant need to come up with ideas to improve different systems under one's working scope and most importantly, the temptations that we had to guard against.
Been reading a book,'Mountain Rain' - a new bio of James O.Fraser, about this missionary who gave up a promising engineering at the young age of 21 and embarked on a mission to rural China on his own self. What a soul enriching experience to read of how God is turn seemly 'impossible' task to man, into possible situations and to know that He is able to use just one man to bring several hundreds to their knees in repentance for their sins. His journeys up the mountains to bring the gospel to the Lisu people kindled a desire in me to want to also be his special companion to have also those beautiful feet to climb the hills and to share his burden and go to God in faith. Bus rides to and from work are never a much dreaded time anymore as the inspiring journey of an obedient servant's life unfolded many beautiful truths like prayer and faith, accompanied me in a oft packed bus. Now i'm in a dilemia to want to finish the entire book at one shot but also wanting it to last for a long time (at least till the end of my attachment), its reali a good book for anyone who is interested in missions or merely just want a good read but still benefit spiritually from it.
k, better stop here or i never end. gotta go and prepare for tml day's work already. so till next time...... Pro Rega
