A new week begins

Working feverishly on my OT theology paper - albeit not getting too far, haha.

However, I am thankful that I am still motivated to work, even though it means sitting in one spot for hours on end - juicing my brain, staring at the computer screen blankly, typing and deleting (deleting more than typing), day-dreaming of the day when my paper will be finally completed (I've got to present it on the 18th of Oct, a 40-minutes presentation), what have you... I pray that I'll get past where I am right now. Spoke to a friend or two last week - and was pretty relieved that I am not the only one having problems with my paper. *Phew*

I guess I'll try a little harder before I ask for help from the wise one (a.k.a. Dr. V). O God, please guide me!

And because I'm feeling silly.....

A challenging week has ended - and here comes another one. I've truly experienced the power of prayer in the previous week, and thus, I'm moving on with more prayer. At first, nothing seemed to be happening. God seemed silent and faraway (or so I felt, in my insecurities); my prayers sounded so silly and small. I was one miserable and desperate woman. And then, suddenly on Thursday...it was as if a rainbow had appeared after the storm. God showed me (in the most gracious way) that He had heard and remembered me. I only wish that I could share what I prayed about/for - but it is really too personal to be blogged about. Suffice it to say that it was something that I had been feeling conflicted about - a source of much confusion, emotional stress, emotional drain and depression. Perhaps, I was being overly sensitive. Too much introspection as well. Too much analysis of words spoken to another human being, on my part. Or perhaps, I was being intuitive. Whatever it was, I am so grateful that God comforted, affirmed me and let things fall into place (in His time) so that I would have peace of mind. It has been such a lesson on trusting Him and letting Him be God!

God, You are good.

It will be my last day at work tomorrow (Monday). After that, I'll work strictly on juicing my brain - and writing. Here goes!!!

Told you that I'm feeling silly!
