THANK YOU GOD!

317th Day in Melbourne

Cloudy & Rainy

This week has been a really special and unbelievable week for me..First, on Monday i received an e-mail about the success of my scholarship application, the application that i've prayed for months to GOD above, pleading with GOD to grant me the scholarship as without it, life would be really difficult for me starting next year. And GOD answered my prayer. GOD knows what i needed and to HIM, HE must have felt that i really needed it, hence he granted me the scholarship! This was the 2nd time i'm applying for the scholarship upgrade and i thought back on the time when my 1st application was unsuccessful. I didn't blame GOD for not granting it to me back then, as i knew that i have not worked hard for it and does not deserve the scholarship even if GOD granted it to me..

This time round, i worked hard and i prayed night after night months before the submission of the application and every night i told GOD that if he thinks i deserve the scholarship, please grant it to me..I ask GOD to grant it to me only if HE thinks i deserve it, so even if HE didn't, i know that it's not because HE doesn't love me, but i haven't worked hard enough..But GOD, you granted it to me this time, and i know YOU love me so much to grant it to me...THANK YOU LORD! Of course, i have to thank GOD for giving me such a supportive Head of School for i know Jennie has fought so hard for me to get the scholarship. THANK YOU JENNIE!

Not just that, this morning, i received another e-mail saying that i was awarded the faculty excellence award due to my good grades and that i will receive an extra $5k/annum for living expenses!! Yoohoo!!!!!! This is really great news come unexpected!! Oh my GOD! THANK YOU GOD!! I really didn't expect i'll receive this...though it's stated that it's given to the top 8 students in the faculty, i have a feeling that everyone in my class got the award.. it's not surprising given how hard my classmates worked too! The extra sum of money will definitely be a great support for me, and now that i do not have to pay for school fees with the scholarship, the extra money from this award will go towards my savings so that i can pay Daddy back the money he gave me for start-up here in Melbourne...I felt really bad when i took the money from Daddy and i know GOD knows that..that's why HE's giving me this extra support...THANK YOU GOD!

I'm still dizzy from all these good news and can't wait to share this with all my friends and family. If you all are reading this, THANK YOU for being there for me in big and small ways. I'll continue to work hard!
