And so the new year has finally gone into full swing (albeit the apparent lack of teachers today). Classes have been sorted, the ice has been broken, and hopefully we've all got to know one another better - both within and outside our own classes. The Lecture Theatre today was truly filled with a whole concoction of mixed emotions - joy, disappointment, pleasant surprise, tragic irony. All things aside, we have finally made it past the day we had all eagerly anticipated.
Now that we're in classes, do build up on those classmate to classmate relationships, and spur one another onward to a more fruitful and loving relationship with our God. Fortunately, our prayer group had been scattered rather evenly: look around you and you've probably have one or two from the same prayer group - do uphold each other!
One chopstick breaks easily, but a bundle is tough to crack.
(or if you detest those ancient Chinese proverbs)
We are one in the body of Christ!
Just a quiet reminder here for all of us to be faithful in our quiet time with God. Truly, the best time spent is in quiet solitude with our Father in heaven, in bowing down humbly, and in realising His majesty. In acknowledging that we are nothing, and yet He is everything. In marvelling that in all His greatness He has set His love upon us. In crying out to Him, in praising aloud to Him, in loving and being loved.
Perhaps get a partner to call you up now and then and check with you. Be accountable for one another, and encourage one another when we start to stumble. Keep watching out for each other!
And a reminder to bless a teacher this week. So many teachers out there. May no corner be left untouched!
"Be still and know that I am God,
I will be exalted in all the earth"
Psalms 46:8
