A PE LESSON!

Hey hey!! today i very free because it is the first day of school and i left my notes in school so i cannot study! i so smart right?! hahahaha^^
Today i wanna tell you all about my PE!
Cause as i was writing on a book between me and leng shan de then the holy spirit somehow linked my experience with God...which is kinda cool and encouraging..so i just wanna encourage you all with it!

Today, our class had issac lim (an odac cum pe teacher) he is like the super hiong and train ppl to be very tough kind you know..
Anws, today is our second time we had pe with him...
The first time was bad enough...we had to climb 32 GSTs!( grandstand torture) means going up and down the grandstand 32 times!! cause up and down is considered as 1, so we climbed a total of 64 grandstand flight of steps!
Anws, today's experience is really a once in a lifetime experience..
Without any warning, we had to go down to the big drains at the outside of CJC....
And you know the big drains will have like a slightly smaller circle tunnel at the end one?
Yupps, we had to walk and crawl through that!
i cannot even stand up straight kind..and it was so so dark! i cannot even see what i am stepping on!
There are spider webs (cause when we came out of the tunnel, some of us had spider webs stuck to our hair), and all the other gross stuff in the drain water...which i cannot see la..
Anws, we were all kinda shocked to find out that he wants us to crawl through the tunnel!!!! cause it is a mon! and most of us wore school shoes which are white in colour...
Anws, at the starting of the tunnel, i tried to keep myself dry by doing sort of like a split and using my hands and legs to crawl through..not touching the floor..but at the end, i got so tired and out of breathe, i gave up...also got kinda scared...
As we got deeper and deeper into the tunnel, the light source seems to disappear!
Finally, i couldn't see a thing! i couldn't see even my hands nor the person in front or at the back of me...
so freaky right?
ya..i was kinda scared..but i prayed and i dunno why the phrase "let God be my light" kept on appearing in my mind..
then my friend in front held my hand and lead me forward...i feel so so secure...
then right, finally i manage to complete it and get out into the light once again!
Phew...
but because there were alot of screaming and vulgarities and stuff, we had to do push ups across the big drain...
The last activity was to go up a steep slope...
Our teacher emphasise on the fact that we cannot help ppl and we cannot get helped by others...
So right, we all tried to chiong up with our wet and soggy shoes..we kept slipping as we climb...for me, it was a struggle and i grabbed the grass and soil and stuff...

At the end of everything, our teacher said the story behind our wet shoes.
It is that alot of people wants to be in our shoes...like our place in CJC is actually taking over somebody else who wants to be here..
If we complain about our wet shoes, we must be thankful that at least we've got shoes...whereas others out there do not have and want to have...they only got sandals..
If they complain about their sandals, they must be thankful that they have got sandals while others out there have to "grow their shoes" which also means growing a thick layer of skin at the soles of their feet as they walk barefooted around..
If they complain that they have to walk barefooted, they must be thankful that they have got legs to walk..
All in all, it is about how fortunate we actually are!
I dunno why, but when he said this sentence, i thought about hoe fortunate we are as we get to build churches openly, worship God openly and declaring His name out loud...however, in other countries like china, when you do all these, you will get killed and persecuted physically!
Then the lesson about the drain was that our teacher do not want to see all our hard work and efforts in terms of studies and cca trainings to go down to drain....
He says that we must put up a good fight and earn the respect from ppl even though we may be on the loosing end...

yupps! so now i am going to create the link..between my experience in the tunnel and God..
Rmb i said that there is one thought in my mind and it was "let God be my light?"
It shows that in times of depair and when we are at lost, not knowing what to do or where to go, as long as we look towards God, He will show us the way! He is never changing and His promises are always there yesterday, today or tomorrow, He is the same...and there is no one else on earth that you can place your faith and trust in besides Him..

Anws, as i travel from darkness to light, it reminded me that i once was blind, but now i see!
Because it was so dark in the tunnel, i felt like a blind person...it is like talking about my past (blinded) but now, i see^^

Also, the long, dark and scary tunnel represents the obstacles that we are facing, the tough christian life that we have to lead on earth...and even though it may be difficult, as long as we grab hold and work with the holy spirit (which is in this case my friend, serena), holding on to the promises of God, we will be able to perservere, sercure and succeed this long and tough journey and get out into the light (which is the kingdom of God)!
We may not be able to see it now but it doesn't mean that it is not there...(it doesn't mean there is no opening)

The tunnel is only travelling in one direction and there is no turning back!
just like how we cannot turn back time and go back to the past but to continually focus, move forward and continue to grow in the Lord as we take every single step in the tunnel...
Also, there is only 1 way to heaven and that is through Jesus christ=)

EXTRA: i thought about it and i decide to put it down...cause i scared the blog post too long then ppl lazy to read mahs..hahaha^^
Anws, as i was eating dinner with my family just now, my mum talked about my grandma complaining about her eldest son being the most loved one however as he grew up, he is unable to love his mother back as much as how much his mother loved him in the past...
I was reminded of how much God love us and we always do not love him the same way..just like how my uncle treat his mother...
and since his mother which is my grandmother will be so upset because of this lack of love, even though she got like 6 more other children, how much more will God be upset because of our lack of love for Him or even to forget all about Him?

God bless you!!
