Okay actually there are many many more pics, which I will eventually upload if only blogger cooperates with me. But anyway that isn't the point. Haha.

I just can't believe that my 3 months in tung ling has finally came to an end. I remembered not too long ago, the only reason I signed up was because my mummy promised me a blackberry. Yes, I know it all sounds so ever materialistic. But I mean even without the blackberry, if she HAD INSISTED, I would have eventually signed up. All I can say is that these 3 months in tung ling has changed me a great deal. I can actually feel myself maturing not just in my christian walk but as a person.

My time in tung ling has come to an end but as much as I'm saddened to leave this place I've grown so fond of, I know that this is just but the beginning, the start of something new. TLBS has taught me alot of things and to translate all of it into writing would require a really patient reader and a very detailed me.

To sum everything I've learnt it would be that, I  have finally understood what it means to have my very own personal relationship with God. I know this may come as a surprise to many of you. Especially so when I have been a Christian for quite some time. But honestly, I've never felt this close to God as I do now. Being able to hear him speak to me, minister in my life through prayers, getting reaffirmed by others, has been nothing short of wonderful. It is no longer a matter of how much God speaks to me THROUGH my parents but instead, Him speaking personally to me. Me listening and waiting by his throne.

I thank God for having answered my prayers, healing this hurt I had over a certain relationship and really seeing me through. I remembered feeling like everything was at its wits end. That the pain I felt so immense I could literally envision a knife cutting through my heart. It was so terrible but God healed me. He thought me to love again, brought me back to the very basics, reminded me of His ever flowing love for me. He gave me new friends to bring life, love and laughter, cliche as it may seem, into my heart. He brought them, to me, injecting new life into my tired and broken soul. He built even stronger friendships, now providing me with good Christian soundboards, to whom I can bear my soul to and trust to obtain good advice from. God has really blessed me and the richness I have gotten out of tung ling is something I would have never envisioned.

The power of prayer was reignited within me. I understand how powerful prayer is. Revisited the times when I was completely on fire for God and would pray unceasingly for my friends. Through my time in tung ling, God has brought me back to understanding and appreciating the power of prayer so much more. I still don't know if the situations I'm in now are reminders to myself to pray hard, but I know I won't ever forget what he has done for me through these 3 months.

Right now as I embark on this new and uncertain journey I pray I will be able to keep to this. Hugs myself! Hahaha.

I would just really like to thank God for the grades he has given me. I mean yes I wish there were somethings that could be changed but even more so I thank God for the grace he has shown me. I am not particularly pleased with the results I got. Definitely not actually. But I know God has his own sacred plans for me and I know what I should be doing with my life. Call this a wake up call. But I know what I need to do.
