Give thanks:)

This week can be graded as GREAT:)

it's a time of thanksgiving for me..

i give thanks for my current consultant whom i'm attached to
for his ever patience to teach us without realising the whole team was waiting for his decision.

for his chilling-ness, inviting us(SHO,FY1,Medical students) to have a cup of tea,

at the park next to the ward, chit-chatting under the hot sun,

eventhough he hasn't completed his ward rounds.

(p/s: tho the HOT sun is high up, Lily n I were still freezing coz it's so windy..and us just cant stand it. But for the locals..it's boiling all the time:P)

i give thanks for the 2 days of diarrhea i had

rushing in and out the washroom >15 times

not knowing what i ate wrongly

but He still sustain me, and spared me

i wasn't dehydrated or exhausted..still up and about:)

i give thanks for the ONE and ONLY SUNNY Thursday

when other days throughout the week was rainy and windy

because the heat has warmed me up a bit

and SF on that day was good

as Sheila, our church missionary reminded us about the promise God has told us

i.e: He will be with us always, willing to listen and guide

i give thanks for all the food on my table

even though it's just a thin slice of turkey ham plus a bun

2 pieces of bread with honey

or a creamy piece of fish which i dun really fancy

i shall still eat it with a smile because it is the Lord who has provided this meal for me

i shall not complain but be contented.

i give thanks for supportive friends

who are always there to spur you on

through sms, emails, phone calls, facebook or msn

sending me their warm wishes and encouragements

or even a prayer through a phone call, sharing each other's lives though we're miles apart

has always been a great blessing

i give thanks for exams

though it's just one week away for progress test

and so much more to cover and memorise

i shall not fear but to prepare myself and trust God

for i know that surrendering my exams to Him is an act of obedience

it's by Faith I am walking this journey

to sail through Med school is a definite NONO if it was by my own strength

I give thanks for weekends

for it's the only time we could have proper Chinese dishes for dinner

and the time i dont feel guilty eating a bit extra

or reward myself with a piece of chocolate or blueberry muffin as dessert

for it's a 2 days OFF from strict diet of vege, brown bread and fruits..
