hihi fiona here!!!! i knoe u guys r having a lot of stress about the exams n stuff.....remember today's daily bread teaching that when the circumstances overwhelm and seem too much to bear, depend upon the Lord for strength and trust his tender care. will pray for all of yah!! i am pretty much struggling myself with loneliness, boredom, home sickness, being racially insulted, problems with flatmate and the list goes on. It has been an emotional roller coaster ride for me just bearly two months of being here in Perth....i just break out in tears over small things. i feel dat i havent laughed for a long time. Lost my cheerfulness n became a sad, worried, lonely n sensitive freak. n poor jolene's email seems to be flooded with all my problems n lamentings. i have wondered so many times y GOD had brought me to this place to go through all these...wouldnt it been better if i stayed in spore. but now i knoe how wrong i am to think that way. I have never felt so excited, looking forward to the end of the week coz there is cell group meetings on friday and church on sunday. n with the free time on hand, i have started reading the bible from page one n getting fascinated by the biblical characters n HIS wonderful miracles. I am listening to the christian radio station everyday too...unfortunately only a few of the songs r christian song. the radio station have very powerful speakers who share their testimonies every night....every time i feel that God is speaking to me thru their message. I have finally sorted out my thots tonight...GOD brought me here so that i can spend more time with him n not the short 10 minutes i devote to him in spore every night. He also wanted me to go thru all these trials so that i can learn to lean on him n let him take control of my life. Life is never lonely without Him!!! i promise u all esp jolene that i will learn to let go of my problems n be optimistic n happy no matter what happens!!!!
