The ending of a chapter

I was going through a few blogs, and a lot of them were about how bad their life was. Sad, disappointing, upseting type of entries. Their conclusion...2005 was really a s*cky year.

It is end of the university year for me. In less than 8 hours, I'll be on plane, on my way home. And here I am thinking about this whole 9 months I have spent in Coventry.
Was it a good year, or bad year??
I have grown so much since I came. Spiritually. Well, I know I grew in size too...coz they're tons of clothes i cant wear anymore. But yea, the wonders of drawing closer to God, getting to know Him like I've never before...it was truly amazing. The friendships built, the support I got from leaders, the fellowship I never ever experienced before, it was amazing. How I was 'forced' to turning to and relying on God and no one else.
It wasnt a stroll through the park, but I suppose I learnt and am still learning that God is indeed in control throught the storm.

The step of faith I am gonna take...I dont think I am quite that ready yet, but I think I will be when I need to be. Now's not the time to plan my words, or think of ways to speak the truth.
Mark 13:11
Whenever you arrested and brought to trial, do not worry beforehand about what to say. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking but the Holy Spirit.

I guess the whole chapter of "First year at Coventry" is gonna end. But I'm looking forward to "Summer in Malaysia" and the trials and lessons awaiting me.
