Not sure if anyone of you still checks this blog. But still, hello everyone!!! I can't believe this is the end of my 4 years stint in Sydney. How fast time passed!!! I just had my last paper of my uni life yesterday, and it just feels pretty surreal that this is the end.
Many of my friends here in Sydney have been asking me the past month, how I'm feeling now that I'm coming to the end of my "life in Sydney". To be honest, I really don't know. There's a mix of emotions - happy that I've finally finished my degree (enough studying for now, haha!), excited that I'm finally going to graduate, heavyhearted yet longing to return home, sad to say goodbye to friends in Sydney, and so much more...
Coming to Sydney has been a real blessing, and I can't thank God enough for this journey here. Amidst the ups and the downs, I know God is faithful and has led me through it all. I've learnt so much of God's word, of serving Him, of being His child. There's so much treasure to find in His word, and to truly apply it and be transformed by the Gospel that has saved us. Everywhere, anywhere, there will be problems in ministries; but we believe in a God who is bigger than any of this. And as long as we are faithful in the work God has placed in our hands, we can be certain that the Holy Spirit will work in and through us in His own perfect timing.
You girls were in good hands under Vera and Constance (thank you so much!!), and now all of you are in YAM already! I can't wait to be back to learn and serve alongside you all.
Till then,
lots of love, yiling xx

John Calvin wrote, "the evil in our desire typically does not lie in what we want, but in that we want it too much." David realized his mistake. Marriage was a good thing. It was good for him to desire it. But God was mercifully using the difficult experience of having this desire denied to show him that he wanted it too much. He had been placing his hope for happiness in starting a courtship and getting married instead of in trusting God for his ultimate satisfaction.

Joshua Harris, Boy Meets Girl - page 61

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus

Philippians 4:6-7

When I have learnt to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now. In so far as I learn to love my earthly dearest at the expense of God and instead of God, I shall be moving towards the state in which I shall not love my earthly dearest at all. When first things are put first, second things are not suppressed but increased.
- Cs Lewis
