Often in life, we are stricken by the word "failure", or by negative impression in our life that we are not going to make it. Today when I was teaching the Pri 6 Sci class, I sense deadness in the class. I was wondering why the class was without joy. I felt the instant prompting from God to cheer them up though they may have their Mid-Year Exam this coming wk and they felt discouraged by all the mistake conducted in the practice paper in tuition class and felt discouraged that they might fail their tests and whatsoever. I felt the need to encouraged them so I tell them that they shld not worry abt the exam failure but the most importance things is to get sth out of tuition lesson that will be beneficial to their upcoming exam and study for PSLE. So those words of encouragement really come from the past experiences I had with God, so I said to them no matter what faith u had, juz believe there is always hope at the end of it. With that words of encouragement the class atm become less tense.
When those words penetrated my heart and mind, peace began to flood my spirit, and I knew we were going to be okay. The Bible tells us, God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear, even if earthquakes come (Psalm 46:1-2 NLT). If your life is being shaken, steady yourself with the promises of God. Remember that He is your refuge and strength, no matter what is going on around you. The peace of God can flood your heart as you allow the Holy Spirit's voice to drown out the voices of fear and confusion. Because He is with you, you can handle anything that comes your way.
Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double; Everlasting joy shall be theirs.
Isaiah 61:7 (New King James Version)
