Haven't blogged in a while as I have been busy over my university admissions. Just went for an education fair and applied to an australian university. The representative told me I would get a reply in 2 weeks and I was wondering how come my admission to med school in NUS took 2 months to reply.
Had a good talk with Wei Qin yesterday about speech therapy and was in pretty good spirits for the first time in days. Not sure if it is because the idea of going overseas with a friend is so thrilling or because it could be what the Lord had in mind for me. I prayed after that, should God want me to become a speech pathologist and work with autistic children, then He will open the door for me to get a scholarship and gain admission into the course.
Later on, I read in this book, twentysomething, that God is not interested in the path that we take, but rather the person that we become. It suddenly struck me that all these"life-changing" decisions are just ripples in the sea of God's plan for me. Despite all my hard work, I still did not enter medicine. Not because I did not make the cut, but simply because it was not God's will. My dad often reminded me when I was young that "Lydea can't but God can!" As a very independent person, I often relied on myself and not on God. But thru all these, I finally realized that God is the potter and I am only the clay.
