Shanghai, baby!

If all goes well, i might really be going to Shanghai for a workshop training! hahaha. I'm super eggcited!

Anyway, today i was reading sth else, and i literally stumbled upon Romans 12:2 "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will."

And sth struck me. We are all familiar with the first part, "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." but we rarely remember the second part, at least, i don't.

It says, "THEN (there is a direct cause and effect there...) you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will."

The writer uses "test and approve" and in other translations, it means about the same thing. It requires us to move before God will move. We always ask God to show us His will, but we don't move. We don't test and approve... We don't discern... And i love it that when we move, God will reveal his good, pleasing and perfect will! AMAZING! PERFECT leh! it's flawless. Which other God will tell you His perfect will? God wants us to know His perfect will!


I love it! I get excited when i read the Word now, cos i'm taking Personal Bible Study class at PBC and i'm finally learning how to study the bible...

FUN!!!!!
