haha... that sounds so totally funny to rejoice because it's exam time right? =PpP But the truth is, it is indeed a time to rejoice! The word of God says "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." - James 1:2-4
It is truly during this period of time that I can see God's hand moving more clearly. I can see Him blessing me in all my papers. It is especially during times such as these that I am more sensitive to The Holy Spirit. You know, on Monday as I was studying with a friend, The Holy Spirit prompted me to pray for her. At first, I struggled... cos it's feels so weird to ask her whether i can pray for her cos she's a non-Christian. But anyway, i decided to take the step of faith to ask and I thank the Holy Spirit for giving me the words to say. =) hehs. At that moment, i trust that God has planted a seed of faith in her heart. And you know what? today as both of us rushed to go for our papers together, she said, "aey, we havn't prayed yet." wow! really thank God for His big open door. haha. so i prayed for both of us on the bus toward the exam hall. =) indeed God is a good God!
Also, i was really really dizzy before I went for my exam paper today. And i was praying like mad for God's strength... cos this is the paper that I studied the HARDEST for... and I cannot do badly for it cos all my efforts would have gone down the drain. But i thank God. Indeed like Paul said in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10... God's grace is sufficient for us... and His power is made perfect in our weaknesses. Therefore, I choose to delight in my weaknesses! =) Although the paper was really hard and took up all of my brain juices, and made me momentarily demoralised; but i still want to thank God... cos He allowed me to do my best for it. =) After the paper, as i talked to others about it, i realised that maybe i didn't do that badly after all... cos I filled in many more blanks than others. haha. Don't get me wrong, i don't say this to show that i am smart or anything... I say this because I know that it is God's divine intervention in the midst of my exams. Indeed, He gave me the wisdom to study stuff that came out in the exam paper! haha. yay. so fun. =) Our God is a God of more than enough.
"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."
