seeing the plank in my eye

I have decided that i am a self-centred egoistic girl and shall try my hardest to be less of both.
This profound revelation hit me at around 1 am last night, while talking on msn. most of my statements, it seemed, started with and "I..." followed by some personal anecdote that applied to the conversation. Looking at the situation, one realises that the ideal state of a volley conversation is where there is equal participation of both parties, where one listens attentively while the other talks. with thiss piece of information in mind, one is able to recall the unpleasantness of an unequal conversation where the other party involved was unable to get a word in edge-wise. i am talking funny because of sleep deprivation due to insomnia and interesting conversation last night. Plus the nice show called Lost that ended pretty late. And the worry of undone homework. The last mentioned factor further resulting in my early rising at 8am, although the nature of one's headache causes one to wish that one had exceeded one's wake up time by more than one hour instead.

The four lost boys have been found! *cheers*
It goes to show that GOd is truly the God of faith and hope, and the God of mercy.
But most importantly, it goes to show that our prayers are heard!
Jeremy Tio's mother, presumably mrs Tio had prayed for her son's return most fervently one assumes, and guess what?
God answered!

things to do:
-remember psalms 103:10-12
he does not treat us as our sins deserve,
or repay us according to our iniquities.
For as high as the heavens are from the earth,
so great is his love for those who fear him;
as far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
- do finish my einstein poster - Thank God for einstein, but Lord, please help me love my physics teachers!
- do finish my math tuition homework - Dear Lord, forgive me for procrastinating, but PLEASE help me finish it.
- pack my luggage AGAIN- Please let the weather in england be kind cos i don't have enough pants
- pray for a safe journey without hiccups. literally and figuratively.
- pray for good weather on sunday, for the swordfeesh outing
- pray for the state of my mental health.
-most importantly, pray that i will change and become more Christ-centred and less self-centred
