Favour,

Too much has happened since Liberated. Besides being jam-pack with work & adjusting to my new independent friend-free lifestyle, a lot of good things has been happening to me. I was just too preoccupied trying to fight against all the 'bad' stuff to be able to see it.

For one thing, stopping in the middle of nowhere on the way home sitting by my favorite playground and just sobbing is not exactly exemplifying how blessed I am now. I've been unmotivated, unfocused, and basically been floating on my own cloud of depression and pity party.

In this one month alone I've started a christian prayer group with the DADP Year 2s, started work at the drama company that inspired me to be where I am in the first place, been selected for Celebrate Drama! 2012, and above all, gotten approval to go to Timor & implement an applied drama programme there.

AND I HARDLY EVEN DO ANYTHING. I just sit here and lepak and mind my own business and God calls, I take one simple step ie. talk to ONE dadp year 2/do my work/talk to my parents/talk to Ps Tom and BAM! all these things happen.

I guess this is what it means to not strive. In this past year I have lost my focus. I've forgotten my purpose and my one true motivation. I've put aside my calling. I am called to this field of work to reach out to the lost, to the poor in spirit and whose hearts are weak. Not to get As and be the top 10% of the course, tyvm.

I was at FOP with Aaron yesterday, and Ps John Bevere preached about extraordinary lives lived out through the empowering power of His grace and HIS GRACE ALONE. What have I been doing, trying to prove myself right and working so hard for my grades and my results? Does God CARE if I get an A or top the course?

No, He is looking at the heart. He is looking at if I've honoured Him in my work. If I've given my all.

I have three presentations, two exams, and three applied drama workshop plans to plan in the next 2 weeks. I am going to do this, and damn well am I going to do this right.

By His strength, and His strength alone.

Matt 25:23 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

P.S. Thank you wyn <3
