So... After 3 months of activities....

Oke. Gue udah lama gak ngeblog. Seriously, banyak banget yang pengen gue ceritain.

Basically, gue exhausted. Too many activities in short space of time.

NUANSA is getting nearer. ExxonMobil started already. NUS Choir start practices. Tech Crew haven't end yet. Photo Comm started already. 24 hours of lecture a week. 5 hours of tutorial a week. Assignment starts. Argh!! To many activities in such a short space of time.

So far, thank God that I'm able to manage rush everything and get everything done on time. But, I don't know how long I can last. Really.

CaBs.

A story to share

Thank God because orientation, both Hall and PINUS, is well done. PINUS Orientation is getting a hugely good review from freshmen, also participating senior and alumni, while TH Orientation is enjoyable by the new batch coming. 9th Tech Crew, while tiring and exhausting, is very good as a team. We work hard together, and those who joining the orientation were blessed by us as we provide them the best support for lighting, sound, photo, and video. Thank God for that.

I thank God for everything. At first, I thought that PINUS Orientation won't be this good. I know that the expectancy is very high, we were expected to create a really really enjoyable event. I thought we will never achieve that.

On Sunday before the orientation starts, July 12th, I went to church with all the burdens in my mind. About everything. Orientation and all the stuffs. We haven't finished the programme yet. Logistic is not fully prepared. Freshmen is coming soon.

Suddenly it changed. Suddenly the musician played a song. A very very familiar song. Suddenly the singer sings, "Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee, how great Thou art, how great Thou art..."

And the Holy Spirit touch me. He touch my heart. My worried heart. I feel that God speaks to me through the song, "No need to worry, I'm a great God, I'm the one who knows what will happen. I know your worry, and I promise that the orientation will be well." And I cried. I cried my heart to the Lord.

Suddenly I feel peace. The peace of the Lord. In the middle of the worship, I feel that the orientation will be well because God has promised so. What I have to do now is doing my best. I'll do my best, let God do the rest.

I thank God because He never fail. I thank God because He is always on time. I wonder if He don't give me the insight through the worship that day, I wonder if the song wasn't "How Great Thou Art", I wonder if He doesn't exchange my worry with peace. I wonder.

After all, let the glory is for God alone.
