As the worse presenter of the night yesterday, no doubt I...
felt defeated.
felt upset.
felt disappointed.
...
Questions like why am i still giving this kind of standard until now and why I cannot even bring what I want to say across, etc, came into my mind.
However, I felt so much relieved after sharing with my beloved Sister, Josephine, about how exactly I felt.
She understands it all because she went through the exact same stage I am in now, and that of a even greater measure.
Thanks for all your words of encouragement and your prayer. I will press on, no matter what, in Him. I guess I am only human. =) I do have my down times too. However, I thank God that I am past the mountain of backsliding. No matter what, I will press on. I will stick on with Him no matter what!
Ken, thanks for your encouraging SMS too. Really appreciate it even if it may not seem so. =)
Xianbi, you are the encouraging one! Felt so encouraged as I read your this post. Thanks so much!

Many times we think we are weak or are constantly restricted by our limitations and we forget who we are in Christ. Have you ever wondered who told you that you are weak? "Who told you that you couldn't make it?" "Who told you that you are not pretty enough?"wasn't God. It was never God.
But yet we allow ourselves and talk ourselves into thinking these ways. And because we are already defeated in the spirit and mind we are defeated also in the flesh. So the next time you feel discourage because of something, ask yourself what God ask Adam. "who told you that?" Yearn for that encounter. It's what that keeps me on and what that will keep you on too.
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive."
Jeremiah 29:11-14
This was exactly the reminder which I need!
This is my stepping stone to become someone of more confidence! My confidence comes from the Lord. ;)
I will build, and keep on building in this area.
3 CHEERS TO ISABEL, HUIZHEN AND JESSICA and all other teams!

*pats off all the disappointments and says: devil, you won't have it your way!Isaiah 40:31
"but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."
