Mentos and all that is green~

"He is Lord, He is Lord, sings my soul... He is LORD."

I must take this time to praise the Lord (: Unwittingly, my entire day just whisked past O.O I didn't even have the time to double-take. My days started out with a now-usual trip to the library at 8.30 am to reserve seats for Eileen and I. And before I can even say glycosylphosphatidylinositol linker, its 9.15pm and I'm munching on a banana!
... Okay. So maybe the banana isn't that important XD

I wonder who first coined the phrase "time really flies". Because now, together with the invention of e-mail (which is now succeeded by SMS) and microwave ovens, TIME WARPS. Hahaha. Bad pun. But yes it does. It has a space-time-continuum-altering device that allows it to become tomorrow before you even realise yesterday had passed you by.

On the way back home from my tutee's house, I was rather despondent... It had been 7 hours since I last hit the books and I wasted it on travelling. Haha. Ugh. Oh, I wanted so much to be given a teleportation device thing-a-ma-gig at that very moment so I could just 'beam' home. But I didn't. And so I continued walking. Meanwhile, Time was racing ahead of me, making funny faces while I ate its dust.

But not wanting to really waste time, I decided that maybe I could meditate on the Lord instead (: I switch the song on my nano to 'This is our God'. And began to just think about the things He has taught me. Of course, I was still getting distracted by the world around me, but as I thought back to what has happened over the course of this week, I began to really see...

I saw a loving Lord who stood by my side and held me back in embrace when I wanted to ... urm ... add a 'fullstop' to my 'essay' (shall we say?). He reminded me this week that the Lord only reprimands those He loves and if we taste the whip, its because He wants to teach us something that will stay with us forever (: He also showed me the importance of friendship and understanding ((: and the meaning of staying true to your love~ ^^ Then suddenly, from the deep recesses of my mind, a single soft but adamant voice rang out...

"I watched Confucius create examinations. Are you really going to let 6 stacks of paper take away your hope of everything I have promised you? Trust in me. I held the waters of the Red Sea back for you. What makes you think I can't save you from this examination?"

And just like the rainbow God painted across the sky after Noah came out from the ark, a flood of green - people wearing green, green kites, green bags, green shoes, just appeared before me out of the .. green XD haha. When the train stopped, it was (just nice!) in the green section. I know it sounds childish, me noticing all the 'greenery', but if you were standing in my position, you'd be moved to tears too. Alright, so I didn't cry in public... but the message God sent was loud and clear (:

Hebrews 10:27
"Let us hold on unswervingly to the hope that we profess, for the Lord who promises is faithful."
