Orientation is over, School's back.

its the pre semester blues we were suffering from when we all played haphazard badminton yesterday at the rec centre.... following that also was some Texas Hold 'em Poker. haha, oh well, school's officially back on scene. The notes, books, readings, thesis dissertation (for a few), exams... all will become part of our daily conversations.

Anyhoos, its just the start... was reading a friend's email about his revelation of the song "Be Magnified"- He said he teared when he sung the line, "i have leaned on the wisdom of men". In my heart there was a silent agreement, how true... i thought. Pastor Henry Seely touched on the topic of the validation of men in our lives, versus the stamp of approval from God. How many times have we sought the approval and the comfort from men rather den the ONE who created us. WOW. great revelation.

Not trying to be a cynic like sarah, but who can live in this world honestly saying that we don't yearn the approval of men. i guess we all fall short of His glory and His purposes. Even so, it is possible to renew our minds daily, to re-focus and to plant our identities in the ONE who has redeemed us. Knowing your privilege and position in Christ.... what a blessing.
