My Life in the Seminary

Life here had been great. Besides the opportunity to help out in the kitchen, in which i hope to rule over it one day..muahaha..i had the chance to enrich my spiritual life. I had more time to pray and seek God and I'm determined to finish the bible in a year. Who's with me??haha..it has truly been a blessing too meeting new friends and knowing how God transforms their lives really encouraged me a lot.

The first week I was here, there were 2 snakes killed. It was scary. I was just finished sweeping the floor for campus cleaning when a guy ran to us panting and saying that there is a snake. I quickly rushed to the scene hoping to see one as I have never really had the experience of looking at a snake. It was hiding underneath the drain and I was holding my broom. One of the guy from the rural areas of Thailand saw me and said that I won't be able to kill the snake with the broom. I looked at him and I guess he saw it through my eyes that I was not going to chase after a snake and kill it. Haha.

Just now, we went to the 'pasar malam' or the night market and both of my friends from Korea and Indonesia fell in love with lok lok. Well, one of my Sandakan friend loved it so much that he is addicted to it right now. It was a truly Malaysian experience for those who had never tried such awesome food.

Well, praying that we would continue to grow stronger to become brave soldier for God not forgetting who we are and what Christ did on the cross for us. Praise Him for the wonderful brothers and sisters in Christ in my life.
