Prayer 1- Surrendering Love

"Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned." (Song of Solomon 8:7)

The "PFYFH" Series

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." (Romans 15:13)

I've been reading a series of prayer guide written by a Taiwanese pastor, Pastor Yeh, titled "Prayers For Seeking A Godly Marriage." It is a book similar to "Letters To Karen" (by Charlie W. Shedd, a collection of letters from a father to his daughter with straight talk about love in marriage, the things that build it up and the that tear it down, preparing his daughter for her future marriage. There's also "Letters to Philip" for guys.), a collection of prayer guides and words of encouragement and wisdom as they seek and pray for their future marriage. The one I am reading is specifically for sisters, there's also a "Prayers for Seeking A Godly Marriage" for brothers.

Mine, Yours, Ours.

My journey of learning Korean started when the ever so lovely Mrs. Lee wanted to learn Chinese, so we'd get together and "exchange" our languages.

Now, it has evolved into a way I bond with my Korean friends, a way that I hangout with them, a way of building friendship, a way to share the Jesus in me with them.

"This Is The Way...."

From "Streams In The Desert".


"Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”"(Isa. 30:21.)

I've Got Nothing

There's always a "giving glory to God" time in the weekly Leader's Meeting. During that time, people share about things that they would like to give glory to God by saying "I want to give glory to God" to begin their sharing, and others celebrate those events by saying"amen!"

I usually have something I could share to give glory to God, but today, I didn't, I couldn't, I've got nothing.

To Live Is Christ

It was then when I fully believe "life flashing back in front of my eyes" could actually happen.
I was traveling back from St. Louis to Columbia, it was during rush hour, the traffic was backed up and I came to stop.
I saw a bright light from my rearview mirror, and the next thing I knew, I was flying toward the opposite bound.

"For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain." Philippians 1:21

Sorting...

Sometimes I feel like I'm just walking and exploring through a maze...

Recently, I've been doing a lot of sorting of my heart and feelings. I am starting to "refeel" some of the feelings that I thought I have gotten over with and were long gone. It has been a thought-provoking process, as well as feeling quite uncertain and vulnerable.
