Trap in a Box

Hey,

Man is just another two week left to summer break. So much to do like studying, finding job, signing up for next fall semester classes, housing and so on. All have to be done. Thank God that I'm at top at things.

As far as studies, I'm doing pretty well, with good scores and good attendances, i can smell a 3.5 and above GPA on my transcript. Now, I'm been thinking of this is that should i do a honors program? I know is good for my transcript and and a lot of scholarships. But i want so badly to be a school athletic. Going to see my adviser on these things and whether i can be both. It will ease a lot on the money be paying next year.

All this scores, shows the Lord Jesus Christ blessing in my life. I think i couldn't done it without Him. everyday pushing me forward thinking of my main goal. Taking each class at a time. And making sure that i do my homework on time and studying to know what I'm doing. Some times i wonder why wasn't i like that in school? i think Malaysia has many distractions for me. hehe. Or maybe everything here is straight forward and understandable.

Besides all that, i in a dilemma now. It is that to stay here or go back home to Malaysia for summer? First let me explain, summer school here is expensive because Liberty Uni is a private school. It is not a state school. So doing summer classes are like doing spring and fall semester prices. So that option is out. Second is finding a job here during summer is crazy. I have been applying to so many jobs areas on campus and is been on the waiting list to long. I started at the mid of school and no reply. All my international friends are having this same problem. A sad face for me, =( and i think that they are being biased. Only giving to those they think that can speak English. I think they see Chinese name straight away they put on the waiting list. Because i got a friend, who is from England. He got a job within 3 weeks from applying it.

i like to stay here but i will be wasting a lot of money if i done get a job or study which is a waste of time. I really like to go back and enjoy the tasty food like bak kut teh, chicken rice, mee goreng, lobak, white noodles and so on. Also, to spend time with church members and of course family. Back home, i can help out in the ministry and do things. But of course, i won't get to see friends that are in Australia studying.

What do i choose? and i think I'm beginning to lead towards coming back home.

Anyway, i think i made you guys and gals help me decide for me. I will pray to God about it and also pray harder to get a job. And sleep is calling me, so till then nighty night.

Jonathan Falwell speaks powerful message, borrowed from his dad

April 22, 2009 : Dominique McKay

Dr. Jerry falwell, Sr.'s sermon lives on ...

Jonathan Falwell, senior pastor of Thomas Road Baptist Church, brought back the memories of his father, the late Dr. Jerry Falwell, Sr., at Wednesday’s convocation with the same sermon of encouragement his dad preached at the end of every school year.

“All of you have been called by God into a specific area of ministry,” Jonathan Falwell said Wednesday. “It’s such an encouragement to see you students of Liberty University truly become what dad talked about when he started this university, and that is becoming young Champions for Christ.”

He recited the questions his father had told students to ask themselves: “What would I do if I thought I might succeed? What goal would I set if I knew I could not fail? What price am I willing to pay, and what sacrifices am I willing to make?”

“These are the four questions my dad wanted students of Liberty University to remember, and so today I want you to remember these questions as well,” Jonathan Falwell said.

Reading from II Tim 1:7, he told students that God does not want them to live in a spirit of fear but in a spirit of power. Taking queues from his father’s sermon, Falwell said God wants Christians to be bold, not to focus on their own problems, and to believe that He can do the impossible.

“With God all things are possible and without Him life is impossible,” Falwell said.

He told students that they are the only ones who can know what God’s will is for their lives, and they need to commit themselves to Him daily by reading His word.

He cited John 16:33, which says, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have tribulations, but take heart. I have overcome the world.”

He encouraged students to remember his father’s words, “Never, never quit.”

“The battle has already been won,” he said. “Christ — when he stretched his arms out on that cross and paid the ultimate price for us — he won it. Now all we’ve got to do is fight it.”

Under the Pile of Sky

Hey,

Pretty alright day was super tired though because i didn't have enough sleep. That is another reason too. Because my roommate was up the whole half of the night. i think he slept at 3.30 am in the morning which was insane. And he had no respect for me, singing to loud music and talking so loud. So i was quite erratic and moody. Not depress. But that. Thank God that i didn't blow up on anyone. Didn't do much talking today or did much today. Just wanted to get done with classes and homework fast and rush home as fast as possible, take a really hot shower and dry my hair. Quickly settle in my bed for a good late afternoon nap.

I just woke up like 2 hours ago. Just to post this up and send some email and maybe watch some shows.

Things in school is getting a bit having many irons in the fire. Busy la. Cause is just about one more week to exams finals. Many of the classes of my classes have finish with test, it is not exams, just test. Now is just waiting for test.

Anyway, I'm still cooking up the list of food that i need to take went i get back home. i know one thing for sure is that I'm really graving for good Malaysian Chinese rice. The rice here can't compare to any Asian country at all. Is like 3 out of 10. Total suck out. But i still eat the rice because it is the only element that is close to home even though they have Chinese food also but it can't compare to home food or any Asian country.

Besides all that i wish you all a blessed night till then nighty night. =)

Students hold special worship and prayer convocation

April 20, 2009 : Dominique McKay

Sounds of Liberty

Center for Worship House Band

As the last full week of classes began at Liberty University Monday, students prepared their hearts and minds at a special worship and prayer convocation.

Liberty’s Campus Praise Band set the mood for the service as they performed with a combined choir that included choral groups from LU’s Center for Worship, the Department of Ministry Teams, LU Praise members, student members of the Thomas Road Baptist Choir, and the University Chorale, Concert Choir and Chamber Singers. Students joined in the worship, singing “Makes Us One” and “In Christ Alone.”

"It was a joint effort of hundreds of the musicians on campus this morning. Praise the Lord!" said David McKinney, campus worship pastor.

Sounds of Liberty, one of Liberty’s traveling ministry teams, performed “Lord, You’re Holy.” Sounds of Liberty is made up of six vocalists, a five-piece band and an audio technician. The team performs nearly 100 concerts year and has ministered in some of the largest churches and organizational events in the country.

Dr. Joe Crider, professor of worship and music at the Center for Worship and Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary, spoke to students about what it means to engage in true worship.

“Worshiping [Christ] is an intentional decision — a choice every single one of us face every single moment of every day,” he said. “Worship is a response to a relationship that we don’t deserve.”

Dr. Joe Crider

Crider joined the Liberty faculty in fall 2007 after spending nearly 14 years as the worship pastor of Second Baptist Church in Springfield, Missouri.

High in the bleachers behind the main stage, Liberty’s Worship Orchestra then performed “Make Me Glad,” “Sweeter” and “All Hail the Power,” along with the Center for Worship House Band.

The Campus Praise Band closed the convocation with “When I Speak Your Name,” “Revelation Song” and “You Saved Me.”

Fighting the Fight of Sleepiness

Hi,

Monday, every one most sleepy and blues day. Well my day was mostly alright. Pretty much enjoy it. Classes went smoothly. Just 4 more exams to go till school is over. i got Bible, Math, English and Kine exam. Math and Kine is easy. Bible and English is medium easy. It is intense thinking about these exams and studying hard for them. Doing homework after more homework. Making sure every homework is well done and excellence, so i can prove that is not me that i do but is God working in me that do these great work.

After classes went to workout. Good workout to release the tension and maybe stress in me. Looking at myself at the mirror, i think i have gain pounds and muscle but still look the same size. Maybe taller. Have to measure. hehe. Is really amazing that i see the changes of my lifestyle. I guess i'll be a whole different person went i get back. For sure I'm still crazy for coke, McD, Nike, and God. I think my character has been molded a lot, i tend to think more, take action more, and somethings has grown in is listening. Taking God more seriously, has taking me new levels that i can't imagine and is still guiding me through the process of my life.

i have been thinking a lot and asking a lot too, whether should i do another major in ministry? But what ministry, pastor? youth? worship? mission? the lists goes on. Also, have minor in sound(PA). i need prayer on this, would you guys pray for me on this. I will of course finish up my kines major but my consciences tell me to study more. you guys can comment or email on this.

Besides all that, today at convocation, is good of course but it was heart heating up. The theme for today was worship and it was good. It speaks so much. Will post later.

Anyway, i got to sleep now. Got to wake up early tomorrow to study and study and work hard. Till then nighty night.
