I've long wanted to tell all of you this, but I have been soo... bogged down by work: training pupils for the National Bilingual Speech competition, attending a 3 full days Special Needs course at NIE, setting 3N exam papers and then 3 days of 'N' levels invigilation during the September break!
The next day after my entry about losing hope and strength as a teacher due to 4/4, I was immediately comforted by God during the homily of the Assumption of Mary mass. Father Thomas mentioned that all of us, including Mother Mary, have to accept our own set of strengths and weaknesses before we can fulfill God's mission. He also added that we need to stay hopeful despite setbacks or failures so that we can reach the perfection stage one day, and this day CAN HAPPEN IN OUR CURRENT LIFE!
I felt so touched by Jesus's love for me and was once again assured of his omnipotent (mighty; powerful) presence in my life. Really, nowadays, the Lord is my refuge (a shelter; a safe place) and He comforts and encourages me before I even have the time to talk to Him. The Lord is really magnificent and compassionate! I'm glad that I can sense his presence more acutely (sharply; conspicuously) than before. Alleluia! Praise be to the Lord!
