But the angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven, "Abraham! Abraham!" "Here I am!", he replied. "Do not lay a hand on the boy," He said. "Do not do anything to him. How I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from Me your son, your only son." genesis 22:1-12 Abraham and David are two of my most fav bible characters. In the Old Testament, Abraham was willing to kill his own son in obedience to God. it was such a big sacrifice that Abraham was willing and ready to make! Jesus calls us to give all of ourselves to Him, every part of our lives. for that, i admit i'm unable to do that yet and sometimes, i dun even realise it.it was also just merely a sentence that someone said to me that impacted me...it was something like he didn't care becos Jesus gave it all what. does Jesus deserve only a part of my life? He definitely doesn't. God made the ultimate sacrifice...what will I sacrifice for Him today?
i'm really glad that i've finally started studying at night and reading up on my lecture notes before lessons the next day. hmm. partly it's because i'm having a marketing test on thurs...kind of gan cheong. there's tons of things i need to know and rem! i need discipline to carry on doing this thru the nights...and i always fall aslp when i tell myself to take a 15mins nap~ but it didn't happen ytd night...cos i slept on my red table! hahaha.
i want to keep going...my ultimate goal is to head to uni after getting a diploma *grin*
everything else fades away...when u focus on Jesus.
