Block test.

so super sian-ded by all the studying! it's all about BIO, CHEM, ECONS and MATHS. at first it is, but after that it's not. it's more about glorifying God with everything that I do.

went back to Medan on fri. we had a short memorial service at home for ama's 1 year's bdae in heaven. isn't that wonderful? she didnt have to suffer everything in this earth, all the illness and pain, but she's in heaven, just worshipping God her whole life. she's walking on roads made of pure gold, not marble or what. and she's looking down on us, all praising God for bringing her up. the WL said a story which truly hit me: once, there was a family and the daughter of the family is getting married. at first they cried, thinking that they'll 'lose' their daughter. but looking at the couple so satisfied and happy, the tears of sorrow slowly became tears of joy. at first i thought that it was irrelevant to the occasion? after that he continued: similarly, when our beloved mom/ama went up to the heaven one year ago, it's inevitable that we'll shed tears of sorrow. even until now, when we think of her, we might still tear, but that'll be the tears that comes out as we remember the impact she made in our lives, the touch and difference that she created. =P

i just remembered years ago, she was still such a devoted Buddhist, praying in front of that altar in her house almost every single day, and she was just so so hard in the heart. but after talking to her, caring for her, praying for her, and everything, she became a believer. isn't that the most most amazing thing that can ever happen in life? her hardness in heart was just just so beyond words. but she even got baptised!! praise God. look at how true and perfect God's love is. she's really an example that inspired me, cos i've seriously never seen someone so devoted to her religion, that she really just dislikes Christianity, and yet God's love can touch her and she can be a believer. who can't then?

ok, enough of my short break!! shall get back to my bonding. i love to bond with God! not with molecules and ions!!
