Reflect

Just recently I went into Village 1 (V1) main area on campus to deliver something to a frosh, and as I walked in to the area I couldn't help but to feel  nostalgic about this familiar place. I used to live there when I was a frosh 6 years ago. The place has not changed much, and I can still remember some of the feelings of anxiety, fear, uncertainty, and excitement when I was a frosh, a new person into Waterloo, knowing nobody, embarking myself into this new adventure called university.

A lot of changed since then. God has been so gracious in molding my character through the power of His Spirit, to give me the desire to go after His heart. God has blessed me so much and as time goes by, it is easy for me to take this for granted, or to even forget. 

So during this Christmas time, one of the things I like to do is to quiet down myself, and think about how good God is, how much He has changed my life, how gracious He is, how I need to humble myself and acknowledge His greatness! This is a great way for me to refresh myself in the Lord, to be encouraged for the challenges of next year.

"When I  think about the Lord

how He saved me, how He raised me

how He filled me with the Holy Ghost

how He healed me to the uttermost

when I think about the Lord

how He picked me up turned me around

how He set my feet on solid ground

It makes me wanna shout;
"Hallelujah, thank you Jesus,
Lord you're worthy of all the glory
and all the honor, and all the praise!"
It makes me wanna shout;
"Hallelujah, thank you Jesus,
Lord you're worthy of all the glory
and all the honor, and all the praise!"
