Mugger Muggle

There is one thing I admit. I'm a muggle not a mugger.

I don't possess any magic trait in my blood. I don't even believe in magic. They are just illusions.

It's been quite some time since I wrote my blog right. Been months, hmm... 4-5 months?
I don't know what's been to me. Perhaps I'm lazy to blog.

Well, here's one of my latest entries. I'm grateful for what God had done. I finished my exams paper. A for chemistry and biology and D for maths. I'm very disappointed with my maths results. Ask me why? I didn't really practise I suppose. I was over confident. Way over. On that day before my maths paper, I hardly did any work because I was confident of my own ability. And ouch, the grade 'D' hurts. What's more, I knew how to do and it's all the carelessness that makes me cry. God, what are You trying to teach me in this?

Rely not on my own ability but the Lord's wisdom and strength.

For chemistry and biology, I was confident too. Here's my secret. I'm no mugger. It's God's wisdom and consistency. I mean, God will help those who help themselves. Humans submit to God what they cannot control.(hmm... this statement is quite controversial) I can't control the marker who marks my script. I can't control the mood of my marker. I just leave them all to God. I helped myself with consistency and God's wisdom filled in the gaps of my knowledge. God is loving. The saying 'you reap what you sow' is true.

Just some truth from myself: I think muggers are those who study hardcore. Although this term is relative to various individuals. But I didn't stay up all night to study for my papers. I stopped everyday at ten pm and I go and meet God. I am still lazy to study too because I feel confident partly and because I am just reluctance to start work at times.So I am still classified as one? God knows how much I study, you ask Him.

Dear Father in Heaven,
hallowed be Thy Name. God, may my results glorify thee. Lord, I know without Your wisdom I am not capable of even writing out the answers. Father, I thank You for sustaining me through this exams and I thank You that I may be able to glorify You. Lord, help me lean not on my own understanding but on Yours which transcends all understanding on earth and heaven. I praise You for what You've done from the Cross to the very day that I was born and up til this day. Thy kingdom come. Thy kingdom come. In Jesus' most Precious Name, Amen.

There's a reason for everything,
a season for everything.
