Thanks be to God....

Thank You Lord for granting me a pass in my EOS...
Personally speaking, I never thought that I will pass...Because it was a shaky paper that I did..Whatever I studied didn't came out in the qustions and whatever I answered was merely based on what I think it is, in other words, am playing a guessing game...
But all glory goes to our Lord Jesus...
Only by His grace I can enter this course
Only by His grace am I able to persevere and pul through every stress and emotional turmoil that I have been through...
During cell yesterday...
We were sharing about this verse from John 10: 1-18:
" I tell you the truth, the man who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climb in by some other way, is a thief and a robber.The man who enters by the gate is the shephard of his sheep.The watchman opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice.He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them,and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.But they will never follow a stranger, in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger's voice." Jesus used this figure of speech but they do not understand what he was telling them. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep.All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.He will come in and go out, and find pasture.The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." I am the good shepherd.The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.The hired hand is not the shepherd who owns the sheep.So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away.Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it.The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep." I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep knows me- just as the Father knows me and I know the Father-and I lay down my life for the sheep.I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen.I must bring them also.They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life-only to take it up again.No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord.I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again.This command I received from my Father."

2 questions were raised and really got me into thinking...
1. Am I living an abundant life?
2. What has been stolen from me in the past 3months or so?
well, maybe is good to post the questions here and for you to ponder upon to...no harm right?

Another thing is...after this exam, I know I have to work harder la....But to me hardwork is not the only thing that I'm looking upon to because when you look at hardwork alone, you are actually looking at yourself and your own efforts and as humans it is extraordinary normal to get drained out after awhile.So look upon to the Lord for He will give you His strength and His wisdom for us to persevere on...
