70 times 7..
hello helloo!
Perhaps it's this inner desire of me, this part of me that I'm simply yearning to share that has made me decide to 'revive' my blog..
It's been so long since I last blogged.. mainly because I've been so caught up with block tests and school affairs. Moreover, moving into my new house has given me much unwanted trouble and annoyance, and brought about a large extent of inconvenience.
First things 1st,
The Block tests are finally over!
Hist-C
Econs-C
Maths-C
E Lit-D
GP-E
I think I actually did quite alright, considering the fact that I didn't study at all during the school holidays, and keeping in mind that I almost forgot how to use a pen! (yes, that bad.. ), I think I should give glory to God for it is in His grace that I can still keep my "Pass everything" status albeit the very long 'break' during last year of end holidays.
Though it's still Cs and Ds, I know that I can do even better! God is our provider and has promised the best for us. I still believe in miracles, even Shasila praised me for the first time! That, itself is purely a miracle.. :)
I have always wanted her praise and acknowledgement, and she has given me immense encouragement, I never thought I would see this coming for real. (A once childish dream of being praised by every teacher that taught me)
I really want to do well this year, because I only get one shot, just one.
Secondly,
The book of Matthew 18:21-22 really inspired me.
70 times 7.
Jesus said we have to forgive others 70 times 7 times, not just being satisfied with 7 times, hoping that we can get away by forgiving only once a day, in every week. Although 7 is the holy number, God's numerical figure, 7 is simply not enough. We have to keep forgiving others as many times as it takes, despite all the wrongs and sins committed.
Forgiveness is still a lesson worth learning, especially when it comes to forgiving oneself I guess.
So for tonight, admist my pensive state..
I will learn to forgive.
