Has 2008 been the best year yet for my life? The year started with a failed relationship which isn't worth mentioning at all. Filled with regrets and hurts, but I thank God that it ended fast enough to prevent causing further misery. I was blessed with wonderful CG members and friends who stood by me when I was hurt. And life started to pick up after this event. God is still good to me.
I may not have achieved as much as some people, but I considered it great joy to have gotten my degree with 2nd lowers honours. I was blessed with good results despite emotional distractions every semester. I was blessed with my choice of being posted back to the same school again. I am blessed with wonderful colleagues who celebrate my return and treat me really well. I am blessed to have the favour of men and to be given opportunities to serve my school in various areas.
I am blessed with a good leader in church, Wendy. Seriously, I would have given up and left church last year if she hadn't agreed to take me in. She didn't SAY she accepted me for who I am and forgave me for what I'd done wrongly. She showed her love and acceptance through her actions. She showed her trust in me by not forcing me to do things but giving me the freedom of choice to do things out of my own will. I've been cruising along for one year. I am thankful to be given opportunities to lead games, praise and offering in the CG. I need to push myself more forward rather than stand still in 2009.
I thank God for placing wonderful people in my life. Friendship and trust is often reciprocal. Thank you all my friends for being there for me and encouraging me whenever I am down. You know who you are. I will not list down names. Touch your heart and you'll know if I'm talking about you. Haha.
I thank God for helping me to get out of debts completely earlier than I had expected. I'm finally reaping what I've been sowing all these while. And I believe this is just the beginning. I'm gonna prosper and continue prospering until I become very prosperous!! I am not a burden to others financially. I am a blessing!!!
2008 gonna end in 2 days' time. This year has so far been the best year of my life. But I believe 2009 gonna be the best year YET of my life. New challenges are already knocking on my door. I need to depend even more on God in 2009. I can't afford to keep making the same mistakes. Mistakes ought to make me stronger and wiser.
"Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." =Phil 3:13-14=
