Helping Hand

There was a bad news for me last 2 weeks, the operation that initially done on 5th of May was postponed. It made me so worry that the doctor didn't give me a new date of operation when he told me it was delayed, he just asked me to come to see doctor again after 3 weeks. My new semester will start in July! What am I gonna do?! It's too late if I make my operation appointment again after 3 weeks!

After struggling for a week, I decided to go to find doctor without an appointment. For public hospital, we can not see doctor without an appointment, and we can not choose freely the day of operation as we like. However, God opened the doors for me! Firstly, at the registration counter, the lady who was very strict was not there, and the nurse was so good, she helped me to go inside and ask the doctor. Secondly, because I was a walk in patient, so I was the last one who consulted the doctor. But God opened the second door for me, after waited for 10 minutes, my name was being called, I was so surprise that I no need to wait until the last one. And at last, God again opened a door for me, a good doctor that I met last time was my medical consultant this time, I thought it's someone else, because his name was not in the on duty doctor list on the white board, really thank God, I no need to say anything and the doctor directly helped me to schedule my operation. He patiently checked day by day for an empty slot, made my operation as early as possible. With God's helping hand, I get an operation date at 30th June.

Before I went to the hospital I was so afraid, afraid that the nurse will not let me in, afraid that the doctor will not give me a confirm date for operation. In the time I was waiting outside, I clicked into my mobile Bible, and it showed a verse to me:

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."- Isaiah 41:10

And He is faithful, He really helped me and uphold me by opening these 3 doors for me. I really thank Him so much! As long as I believe in Him and follow His ways, He will make my path straight.

My Feeling After Exam

Yeah! My exam had finished! But I didn't really feel happy. I was too naive, thought that I studied randomly also could get good result, however I felt regret with my last subject, not because of the result was very bad, but because of I didn't try my best. I took this burden in my heart for a few days, until God's word comforted my heart.

Proverbs 3:11-12

My son, do not despise the Lord's discipline and do not resent his rebukes, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.

This verse really comforted me. This was a training for me from Him, like a father trained his son, to be a better person, to be more discipline. Maybe I was too lazy recently, not focus in study, always tempted by computer during study period, this was a hint from Him. I really thank God for giving me this conscious, this wisdom, letting me realize it, that is much more important than the result that I gain. Not only in study area, I will be more discipline in other areas too in the future.

The matter in the past just let it be, the important thing is the future. But I will still keep this lesson from God in my heart, and do my best in everything everyday, not wasting time which is precious, and use my holiday in a beneficial way.
