He is the ultimate judge...

I learnt something new again from my 2nd trial as a lawyer.

From the first trial, I learnt that God is with me in my work and that with courage and faith, I can see justice done in a case.

Now...the 2nd trial...the outcome was not what I hoped for. The person I was doing my best to help eventually lost...I thought I would be utterly disappointed with God, but no...I prayed that I will surrender the outcome to Him.

Although the final outcome was not what I hoped for, when I spoke to my client and heard his encouragement, I felt appreciated. He did not scold me for not winning the case, neither did he sound very negative. Instead, he thanked me for fighting all the way.

So what did I learn? I learnt that there will not be perfect justice in this world because it is made up of imperfect humans. Judges and lawyers are imperfect and do not have perfect knowledge. How should I perceive my profession? What does God require of me? How should I walk along?

To do justice, to love mercy, to walk humby with my God.

I cannot promise anyone justice, but I can fight for justice! haha =)

Oh well...more lessons to come. I know that the ultimate Judge of all knows everything. One may escape in this lifetime but definitely not in the lifetime to come.

Apart from all that, I made some boos boos here and there lah..super obvious that I am new. So err...got to learn lah!

Still packing at this hour when I am flying off tomorrow morning..crazy..

I NEED SOME GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD REST...

I am proud of you dear, success lies not in the outcome, but the process - in this case. - Guang
