Monday the 3rd did not start well for my 2 students. Immediately after entering the office, I proceed to complete the costing for next year OMA. Then went for project review. My students was not there and they had not handed in their report.
Looking at OMA, I praised God for the opportunities. At least one more year of travel. It seems that there is more travel opportunities when you work on students affairs, plus the chance to deal with students rather than machines. God I prayed for this opening and wonder how this door may still be open for me to re-enter China.
After lunch I went back to review the projects, again my 2 students was not there and I have to sms them to remind them. I am angry with another student, when it is his job as a students to do and complete his project and he failed to do so. And the excuse is that he had no interest in the subject and proudly say that he is going to be a lawyer. Such a bad attitude and I wonder will he do well in life. Anyway my students did not show any demo for their project. I give them till this Wed to hand up the report and next Tuesday to show their work.
Well maybe even at times I gave up. But not at the risk of an important decision point - or a failure in a major exam. I still remember that after so many years, I still study hard for my ACTA course.
I had Monday afternoon to read Gen 20. It was about 2 man and many contrast. A godly man who lied vs a pagan king who lives with integrity. A prevent of sin not when Abraham lied but God intervene to the king through dreams. Instead, the king bless Abraham. God called Abraham a prophet and the king a dead man.
Abraham sin and as a result was "rewarded" with a thousand pieces of silver. And this is the second time he did that. It is therefore not how righteous a man that God will bless, but rather how the word bless was defined. If blessings are counted as material wealth, then we can see how unrighteous man can prosper. Instead, being with God and walking in Him is already a blessing. Knowing that after all, Christ cam and died, the plan for salvation fr mankind and I can be with this God forever is a blessings. His grace is sufficient for us.
Next is knowing that God cares. things may not go well, but God cares. Rather than let logical thoughts or fear overtook us and made decisions that is man, know that God cares and what ever the out comes, He cares. Learn to submit and walk not by sight but by faith.
Today is a free day. Teaching compro is easy. The students has completed their work. I spent my time working on the next semester learning materials. I completed the first week and target to complete the second week material by this week.
Rach is stressed by her work. Well that is true when you work for someone. But the good point is God cares and in all situation God is in control.

Church talked about legacy. What is the legacy that you want to leave for your family? On the day I breathe my last, have I live a life that is full, good and in the will of God?
Frankly, I do not know the will of God. But living everyday in Him is the will of God. Therefore has I dwell in His word, seek Him through prayers and give praise and thanks though worship?
From His word, I wait hear from God and obey. Through worship, I wait on the Lord and hear from Him. Though prayers I commune with Him and find out what He want from me for the day.
As for my family, I am the first generation Christian, how can this knowledge, the fear of God be pass on from Jo generation to the next. That this house may be called as one that serve you.
After church, I taught Deb math and science. I was reminded that she is still a little girl. She needs break so as to keep concentration. Overall she is an obedient girl, who listen. I pray that she will want to understand rather than just to finish her work.
During cell, I did not share as I did not really do my time alone with God. I do not have a plan on what is the life and legacy. But during the man sharing, I shared about my bucket list - to design my own house as well as to run my own café. It is a childhood dream. But more importantly, what is God intention for my life and family, which is a question?
But nevertheless it starts with my daily walk with God, so that my family will follow me to dwell in the words, worship and pray.
In the evening, I saw my 3 kids playing the piano. I smiled, so please that Jo was teaching Deb and Deb was showing Mat. Jo played so tune and to me it was lovely. I prayed that if God you are to use Jo to bring light to the many others through music, you will provide. That the perfect will of God will be the best for his life. How then can I support Jo? knowing that music cannot make a living in Singapore, I put this trust in you.
It is nice to see my children, taking books to rad before bed. A habit of continuous learning and the acquisition of knowledge. I read on the empress of ancient China. Most of them do not have a happy ending. In my heart, there is no hope except power to be the number one. But that number one depends so so much on the emperor. Our king Jesus is eternal, our hope in Him is eternal. It is him that we seek to please, like the emperor. But the difference is that we can swell in the house of the Lord forever, that those who is thirsty and hungry will find eternal living water and spiritual food.
