Choki Choki? or Ferrero Rocher?

Michelle (Meshell) Fong posted a post that reminded me about something.



"Start believing in yourself,in the Christ who lives within you,in the gifts He's placed at your disposal,and the destiny to which He's called you."

This context was relating to our exams. If we believe we can strive an A in the paper, and believe in ourself, we can get an A.


I remembered a sermon Jason Kang shared in one of our cell group meetings. "Do not settle for Choki Choki, if God wants to give you Ferrero Rocher". (for those who doesnt know what is that, it's Ferehlo Rohseh). It means that if God give you something better, go for it, do not settle for second best

The arguement is that, "What if God decides that Choki Choki is enough for us? I mean if God gives us Choki Choki, other people think that is some lower class chocolate, and Ferrero Rocher is definately higher class and more delicious. But for me, Choki Choki is the world's best chocolate. So does it mean that God didn't give me the best?"

So, what I'm trying to say is, do not despair if your exam result is not an A. Who knows if God wants you to get a B or a C or a D, (or fail)? So, you don't need to cry about your results for 40 days and nights and make another Noah, just do your best, study hard, and when the time comes, you will not regret all the hardship you put through.

wah wah wah..wait..i didnt read finish before i reply..hahha

well, few things to say.
(few things i've learned along the way)

The Choki Choki thing was for another context, i forgot what it was for already.
But in the context of your exam, i think you got it right. Do your best and we have to realise, WHAT WE PUT IN IS WHAT WE GET...if you study hard, and you put effort and time with what you do, you're giving something for God to bless you with. You're giving God the OPPORTUNITY to bless.
So, still, work hard, and you'll get good results.
(not everything depends on God, there are times when WE have to come in to do our part)

But i'm sure you pretty much know this already.

Gosh, i've learned alot since i've been here, cant wait to share.
