Friday. It was a shocker for me. i woke up to the sound alarm of my phone ringing away. i know i didn't put an alarm on because i told myself that i was going to sleep in. The phone ringing. Peeping at my phone. It was a phone call from my friend that i was staying with.
Early in the morning, he told me that he was going out with me still three-quarter sleep. About 1 hour later the call i receive on my phone. It was my friend. He was stuck in the snow just outside the house. He call me to help him out with snow. Shover snow.
The scenario is that he was going to drop of his son to school. The drive away down to the main street was cover with snow and the snow cover the path down. He drove down and got stuck in a big layer of snow. Tried to dig him out of it but is hard. It's just not easy working or clearing snow in cold weather.
He called reenforcement to clear the snow and another person to drop his school to school.
We manage to get the car free. Clear a good path from the garage to the main street.
My day was just feeling a little sleepy. I mostly sleep again. Today was exceptionally cold. People and reporters say that this winter season is the worse. It was suppose to get worse during February which i guess it's going to be even worse at that month.
Anyway, pray for the weather to subside. So i can fly back to Lynchburg with no delay. Hopefully school would be open for me to buy books and get ready for school.
More personal level:
I'm doing fine except for the cold weather. I enjoy this snow Christmas. I experience the American Christmas with an American family. It was worth seeing the traditions and culture here. Well Christmas here is totally different in Malaysia.
Besides that, i guess i'm doing fine. I just cannot wait to go home to Malaysia. On my mind now is just to finish this semester studies strong, reach my fitness level, and have greater relationship with God. Do continue to pray for me.
Pray,
1. Pray for me to continue to have good health
2. Pray that i will stay focus on my studies
3. Pray that my relationship with Jesus is intense. More love
4. Pray for me to get more scholarships. It is truly very hard for internationals.
5. Pray for God to guide me in what second-degree He wants me to have. Struggling whether i should do youth ministry or ministry or Bible history or
I guess i cover the most important things to pray for me.
Other things...
I heard about the Church burning thing back home in Malaysia. I find it not shocking at all. Why is it so important to use "Allah" in the Bible or other usage. This matter is so small. It shouldn't trouble us, Christian. The most important issue that should bother us, Christians, is in how to tell them the truth. They are lost in their religion. We, Christians, should be the one to guide people to know the love-relationship with Jesus Christ. We, Christians, are the ones that suppose to disciple people the truth. People don't understand that Christianity is not a religion but is a love-relationship with Jesus-Christ.
So Christians don't make it any bigger of a issue of this. We should be praying for them and loving them. The first commandment that Jesus Christ gave us should be so dear to our heart and should be apply to all people. Matthew 22:36-40.
i hope i'm straight to my point. This problem is the like the saying the Bible "reap what you sow" Galatians 6:7-9. From this there will be more problems.
i'm not tell you this to push you off but to tell you the truth.
Okay, i guess if you have any questions. Please be good questions and worth while arguing. Anyway, off to bed for me. Nighty night.
Lighting,
