A new semester ... and the final lap
A new semester ... and the final lap
The new semester begins officially with the start of lectures on Monday 5th Jan. As this new semester begins, it also marks the beginning of our final lap here in seminary. I'm doing 5 modules this time round, though I need only 4 to graduate. On paper, the requirements for these 5 modules looks managable, yet coupled with all the other extra commitments (Council duties - can't wait for the handover!!! planning for our graduation dinner, etc) I'm beginning to be worried.
As I ponder about what I'm worrying about, perhaps the pressure was due to my perfectionist characteristic - that I want to do everything in the most perfect and excellent manner ... perhaps the fear was due to wondering if I can meet up with the expectation of myself and others ... Of course I'm well aware that with God by my side, and committing all concerns to Him, He can carry me through as He always did, but still humanly, the tasks ahead seemed daunting ...
