M is for Monica. i'm a full time commerce student @ UWA. i turn one year older on the 14th Oct. i ♥ Jesus and not afraid to tell the world. i want to do YWAM and missions in the future. i love heights - planes, skyscrapers, mountains, cliffs, you name it. One day i hope to go bungee jumping and sky diving. i was born in China but have lived in Australia most of my life. Having said that, i'm still quite chinese lol. i like pink things, ribbons, bows, hearts, hello kitty, ruffles, lace, florals. i have a shoe fetish. i wouldn't call myself a shopaholic, although most of my friends would say otherwise. People often see me as strong, independent, ambitious. i thank God for the past 21 years that i've been alive. He has been ever faithful, gracious and loving.

oh how easy it is to say; but when it actually comes down to doing...

i'm scared, but i know Lord You will do amazing things. Wherever, however, whenever.

just a scatter of thoughts going through my head; caught up with Sharon today and we talked about a lot of things.

It's weird how this year there's been so much talk of ywam. It's good to be mission minded, and i guess we lacked that in previous years; but not every single person is called to be a missionary overseas. This is our mission field right now: where we live, study, work, spend most of our time. The majority of people will lead 'normal' lives but still glorify God through them. Right now i'm not sure whether i really wanna do ywam or just because everyone's been talking about it. i know i def wanna do missions tho, so i guess ywam will be a good starting point.

i've realised that when we really do things for God's glory, it all falls into place. However often it's so easy to say we are doing it for God, but are we really? Perhaps we need to question our true motives constantly. Oh how hard it is to be selfless. Lord please refine me through the flame, to become more like You.

A guy from ywam (Sam) shared his testimony with us last night. He talked alot bout passion and gifting. How alot of the times, the two don't coincide. We may be naturally good at something but not necessarily have the passion for it. Two simple examples he gave outta the blue were accounting and piano. That was like 'ding' 'ding' for me. i've never been too bad at accounting; up to the point where i would not do anything (literally) the whole semester, cram during study break and somehow it would still be my highest scoring unit. Whereas the other units i actually do work during the semester. Even though i have a natural thing for accounting, i hate it to bits! i dont have any interest in it at all! The second example was piano - i've learnt piano for 6 years in the past. My teachers have commented that i was good, just needed to practice more. The reason why i never practiced was because i had no passion for it. But somehow even without practicing my pieces (apart from the few weeks leading up to exams) i still managed to finish up to grade 6 AMEB. After that i tried grade 7 but just couldn't be bothered anymore. So my classical piano journey ended there lol. For the past few years i've always thought i would become an accountant, somehow. No matter how much i hated it, i was never able to get away. And i thought this is what God wanted me to do too. But God had better plans. As i'm 3/4 of the way through my degree, i'm beginning to see more clearly where God is leading me. Things are just falling into place and i'm excited about the future. Whatever the future holds, i know it is in God's hands (:

i have been inspired to take guitar more seriously, after i come back from China ;D
