Got the ball rolling with support raising! So thankful for the opportunity I had to share at my church last Sunday. I had hoped I could do the sharing in Chinese but I realised my ability is not enough to express all that I wanted to say (too many difficult terms!). But it's in my weaknesses that I see God's power and grace, especially as a good brother in Christ (CJ) at church was doing Chi-Eng/Eng-Chi translation. I'm on 5% now! Still a long way to go but I know that I can place full trust in God and His provision. I'm already slowly seeing God working in this and I really can't wait to be able to share with people how things turn out in the next few months!
So many emotions are running through my head, especially as I realise I still have so much to raise! But I'm feeling really excited about being able to meet and share with people about how God has been leading me and I'm quite happy to be support raising now (I can't believe it haha)!
God is good.

The t-shirts that many of the Chilean miners wore as they were being rescued were a gift from Campus Crusade for Christ (Agapé), Chile, and read "thank you Lord" on the front, and on the back: "In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also." Psalm 95:4.

two more weeks!
Less than two weeks before my graduation ceremony! And officially finishing up with helping Student Life at Monash :( Time has seriously flown by. It's been 5 years! It's a little hard for me to believe that my time as a uni student is already OVER. I wouldn't change any of it though.
The SL spring ball was already over a week ago too. Feels like so much was put in but then it was over in a flash. So thankful to my sister, Gina, for helping with so much. Without her, it wouldn't have happened. And for the people who came earlier to set up too (Vincent, Cecilia and Nelson). It was a good way to end my time at uni and with Student Life at Monash as a student. So grateful to God how He used SL to work in me and also in my sister. aw I'm sad to be leaving :'(
Anyway, God has been teaching me so much as I've been leading a small group of teenage girls at church and going through some really important concepts about who God is and what it means to be a Christian. I've read some really cool stories and analogies about different topics so I should share them on my blog in the future.
While I was looking for materials/resources I came across the videos on the American Every Student website. I watched this 3 part testimony by Josh McDowell, the author of the book "More Than A Carpenter". His story is so powerful and so worth watching:
