Genesis

New Year Eve countdown :)

Everyone had fun camwhoring and celebrating, throwing confetti at each other. But what I loved most was that we spent our last few moments of the year with God. And I committed everything to God. I know that in 2009, things won't be easy, and I feel that God is going to ask me to do things that I really won't want to do... But I have to remember that God knows best. 2009 is going to be a very happening year, I know it. 

And we're going to be fearless.

Tomorrow, lessons begin. That marks the first chapter of my year. This year, my goal is to excel. In everything, even school. I don't want to be the slacker that was content with getting a B3, I want to be someone that strives and pushes herself to her fullest potential. Life is too short to spend my time bumming away. And I don't want people to see an ordinary Amadea going to school everyday. I want people to see an Amadea that is desprate for God to move in her school. I want to be an Amadea that relies on God... Because there is nothing better than depending on God and committing every day of your life to Him.

Surrendering everything to God is like blindfolding yourself and allowing God to lead you. Anyone who is blindfolded will definitely doubt... But what's important is whether you could muster the strength to carry on walking, even if you doubt, because underneath all the doubt, there is still that small faith, that our God is always faithful. And His love endures forever.

Usually, after a long holiday, I would be strangely afraid of returning to school. But not this time. Because now I know that God put me in school not to be fearful, but to be fearless. And to fearlessly stand up for Him. I'm more than ready for tomorrow, I can't wait to go back to school.
