Fasting

I have been with my new groups for two weeks already and we get to know each and everyone of us more and more as times go by. I have a chance to break the fast with my groupmates. It is super awesome especially when I was fasting on Monday. After class, I stayed back and I have an opportunity to study with my groupmates in campus. Normally I will straight away going back to home after the class and at home, normally I will take a nap. However, on my first day fasting, I felt like I can perform better as in I did not felt tired in the evening. In fact, I still have energy to stay awake to do my SCTL and attend a meeting. My groupmates especially Atikah is so lovely that she had a count down for me on how many hours left to break the fast. Besides, I keep motivating myself that "Evelyn, I can do it". I really enjoyed the moment I break the fast with my friends. Besides, through fasting, I appreciate the food more. In Christian perspective, mentioned in Bible, Luke 4.4: "And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." For the next week, I will try my best to fast again.

An unreserved Love

I've always been told, love won't endure.
Nowhere can one find love long and true.
The world just thinks love comes and passes through.
“Don’t make promise” is the rule…

But I still believe love can last long.
Your unfailing love has made me strong.
You are the one I can depend upon.
Come what may, you’ll love me all along!

Who died on the cross and took away my curse.
Great is your love, I don’t think I should deserve.
Your bleeding hands proved your love unreserved.
You're my only joy and treasure on the earth…

Giving everything to you is all I pray.
Use my life to serve you truly every day.
I’ll hold your hands and give you all my praise.
Let the whole world know your love and grace!

But I still believe love can last long.
Your unfailing love has made me strong.
You are the one I can depend upon.
Come what may, you’ll love me all along!
I’ll hold your hands and give you all my praise.
Let the whole world know your love and grace!

Jesus Loves Us

To focus what I need to, to ignore what is not needed.

Yeah.. first week is over. I can say that everything is fine. Thanks God for that. Just that I had a little feelings on something. Only last night, I was clear that "she" is no longer the one that I knew two years ago.

So, only by accepting the truth that, "she had changed, and I had lost a friend... I will feel better.!" However, the most important thing is still, do not stop caring about your surrounding people^^ I wanted to move on, and I hope to make this semester a super awesome one! Yeah! ^^

I had procrastinate a lot of things e.g.: my studies on John Wesley's sermon and interfaith studies, will going to start, not tomorrow, not later but right now..

To focus what I need to, to ignore what is not needed :)
