"...The LORD Will Provide."

the entire Genesis passage on God's provision (providing Isaac to Sarah in her old age & providing a ram as a burnt offering) is my all-time favorite...and undoubtedly turns out to be the passage that spoke to me the most this semester... *I PARTICULARLY LOVED OUR BIBLE STUDY ON THIS PASSAGE (conviction)*

having faith in God's provision has always been my struggle and it still is.

but i think God continues to put me in situations where i have to have faith in this area.
(He makes me struggle LOL) then He proves Himself to be faithful every time (legit, just ask me.
there are too many instances to write them here).

again, i'm under a test right now (starting this past semester).
i'm wondering if i received a conviction lol.
i'm trying to see if i can shape it.
oh i wish God just told me loud and clear (maybe he did. maybe my lack of faith is
just muddling it-_-).

but if everything was so loud and clear, "faith has no value and
the promise is worthless (Romans 4:14)," yeah? :)

i hope i get to share this with you undies! sorry for being so vague haha!
maybe after this break? after one desire fast? we shall see!

Here's something definite: God is so awesome. His timing is so perfect. His plans are so great.

oooh, i like this version too. Matthew 15, Mark 8, Luke 9 ("Jesus Feeds" passages)!!

SO behind...

(1) what are your prayer requests for break?
i think i shared before that i have a terrible prayer life!
i need to pray...!

(2) what is the meanest thing you've ever done to someone else?
my sister and i used to figure skate when we were...6?? my mom came home with two
figure skater's costumes. i took the prettier one and my sister wasn't even there.
by the time she came around, i was already wearing it and flaunting it.
it was totally unfair lol. the worst part is, i didn't even feel guilty...
(i'm sure i did meaner things than this but this was the 1st thing that came to my mind)

Thanks #9: Sunghyun Hong, my niece!

her humor
her accent (<3)
her openness
her love for God
her energy
her prayer life (when she's praying, she's IN THE ZONE)!!

i'm so blessed just by who she is :)

Thanks #8: October

Thanks #7: November

1 & 2 Learning what's difficult: "In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps." - Proverbs 16:9

3 Favorite Memory: Missions week <3 - Reminder of God's faithfulness and all the blessings ("God's promises being fulfilled"). DO MISSIONS. OMG. "GO and do likewise (Luke 10:37)." DO IT. What's holding you back? Talk to me. I'll remind you why you should GO.

Thanks #6: Prayer

Father, I pray for convictions, more convictions, and affirmation of those convictions.

And we may know that by your power you will "fulfill every act prompted
by our faith." As it is written, "the one who calls us is faithful and he will do it."

In Christ's name, amen.

Thanks #5: Romans 1:11-12

"I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith."

YAY for CSMP 2011 (AA + Chi-town)Reunion!
we're getting some visitors and i look forward to
be encouraged by how God's been working in their lives.
(we parted almost half a year ago!)
