Almost all students are having their summer vacation at this time of the year. We are just starting our final group project. Well, time flies so fast and my 1 year study will come to an end in less than 20 days. I used to have countdowns when I was in college but this time it seems that I don’t want to count how many days left before the classes end. We’re busy doing our respective group projects but at the back of my mind, I’m starting to get lonely. I will miss many things…the parking lot, manong guards, labs, classmates, teachers, Japanese experts, and many more. Just few more days before we say, “So long, farewell, I hate to say goodbye”. There’s a time for everything as the Bible said in Ecclesiastes.
Because many students are in vacation already, traffic jam is not so usual these days. Driving is easier than before. Anyhow, my mom commented that my car speed is getting faster and she’s quite worried. Hehe. I didn’t notice that I’m driving the car faster than before. Maybe it’s just because I’m quite used to driving already and the streets are not crowded with lots of cars so why take it slow, right. Hehe. I’m feeling there’s some kind of need for speed. And besides it’s what people want these days. We want speed… we want fastfood… we hate long queues…we like instant coffee, instant noodles, instant cash, instant transformation and a lot of “instants”. In this world where people want everything to be in an instant, we’re forgetting that this world is a time-bound planet. There’s a time for everything. God has His own timetable. Why am I saying all these things? I notice I’m quite in a hurry for nothing recently… waiting is such a wonderful process if we could only see its bright side. Most of the time I just want to get out of God’s waiting room. But I always fail to remember that this life is just a series of waiting rooms…once you get out from one, you’re entering another one. So no need to be in a hurry to get out from one, they are all waiting rooms anyway. Take time to look at things positively while staying in one waiting room. Appreciate the moment and take note of the lessons being taught. Anyway, God is seldom early but never late. He’s right on schedule even if we feel he is very late. Am I reminding myself? Hehe :)
“God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” Numbers 23:19
By the way, I think go-kart racing is cool! :)
P.S. This “loser” idea can’t get off my mind. I made an acronym for a loser like me…
Leaving Oneself Securely Entrusted to the Redeemer! :)
