Blessings of the Lord
This is a testimony of how God has blessed me with his abundance of his kingdom.
Today I received confirmation that my idea that was sent in for Imagine Cup was selected.
Praise God and all glory be onto Him!
2 days before the final submission of proposals for the preliminary round
The course coordinator called my team up for a brainstorming session
as we were on the verge of giving up our hopes on this competition.
During the session my teammate Kelvin came up with an idea all unanimously agreed upon.
However as for me, my idea was subtly rejected. unfaced by the circumstances I pressed on and went spinning more ideas and God blessed me with one.
On the actual day of the submiossion, again I went to consult my teacher. He wasn't much impressed, however he told me not to give up. I was alittle discouraged initially however I was asking myself what's there to loose? I went to call a recycling company just to find out whether they would like to endorse my idea. True enough as the Lord will, my idea was accepted by them for endorsement within just 5 minutes of talk on the phone. I was motivated to continue developing my idea futher.
Hence when I went home, I locked my door and stared on my proposal. I was asking myself " HOw can I finish a 5 page long proposal within 5 hours? [[submission was on 23:59]] ". Anyway strugging to put my content right, I managed by God's grace to finish within 4 hours only. Making final adjustments within the next half an hour, I was 30 minutes from the dateline.
I was elated. Everything worked the way I wanted. I was sent my mail and was ready for bed. However, my attachment did not go thru! I was anxious what could possibly go wrong?! I prayed desperately to God however it just would not pass. Then only at 1:35 did the mail go through. I was really worried, would my proposals [Kelvin's and mine]] be accepted? we had passed the official dateline.
Great is the grace of God, I learnt that the official dateline has been shited backwards for us to make adjustments afew days after. I was so relieved that ours are in good hands.
Today, whilst I called the Imagine Cup personnel to check who's proposal was choosen, Glory onto God, it was mine! I was on cloud nine!
Hence If not for my course coordinator, I would have easily just given up, If not for his comments, I would not be willing to challenge myself to imagine more. If not for God, we will not be in the semi finals. THe top 16 teams choosen in entire Singapore.Labels: Testimony
