Hooray!

Managed to register myself for one assignment-based subject last week.

Just when I was fretting myself silly about how deep a dent this round of education would be, the programme registrar told me that due to my past studentship record I only need to pay for the tuition fee! :)

Oh, some background on the matter.

I took up this course about 5 years ago, and stopped halfway due to financial constraints and lack of concentration & goal-setting on my part. Never did de-register myself from the college since I stopped going for classes, so my studentship record (and fees paid) still exists.

Praise the Lord for providing this bonus at this time of need...despite being the 'absent' student for some time, I don't have to pay for another round of registration and studentship fees. :)

The moral of this story?

Do Not Worry
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life ?
“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

So
do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Matthew 6:25-34
