Thinking aloud

Where are you going?

In Tension

Thursday, January 19, 2006
For those who have been following my blog...

...you will know that I wasn't in a mood to celebrate Christmas.

An msn message and email from hold informed me that one of my church youth was (is now) undergoing treatment for leaukemia.

He is in good spirits. No news so far, and all that can be done now is to wait and pray.

Wait and pray. Living in tension, it is especially painful for Aunty Annie who watches her son (Ju Liang) go through a life threatening crisis.

I had an epiphany while taking a walk just now....

Being spiritual does not mean the pain of disappointment is taken away. One must hope against all hope, pray the very heart out for healing and expect that God will act mightily.

We are only human...to even ask the question, " Is it God's will?" is a mockery of our humanity.

I sincerely hope and believe that Ju Liang will be healed...

Temporary

Wednesday, January 18, 2006
I can't access blogsome. Seems that they are changing servers. I'll have to blog here temporarily.

It rained today, quite strange considering the warm weather. But it was welcome.

Quite through with my presentation. The big picture is there. On a related note, i just realized I actually haven't quite finished my thesis. I've been slacking far too much. :P

I wish I could blog more personal stuff here. But it is impossible, it wouldn't be right. Some of it goes into my journal. As it is said, " ...the unpresentable parts, we treat with special modesty..."
