WA(H)

WAH! today in WA meeting (lame pun intended), gave me a few things to ponder about...we were planning for next week's service, and next week's passage focus is from Philippians 3:1-11, it's when Paul talks about how he's this super awesome guy, but it's all rubbish to him. so then a question popped up, who can't you live without? so then this made me think, who can't I live without? the first people that pop into my head are like family and LLFs, but let's be real here. i'm living perfectly fine without my LLFs...hahaha, so then i was thinking, REALLY? who can't i live without? i don't have an answer yet, it made me think. (i know that God is the answer, but that's not the point here...)

second thing that made me ponder: why do we always answer "how are you doing?" with "busy"? (especially during this midterm season) why is it that we must always seem like we're up to a lot and doing so many important things? as [bible] Paul (not paul ryan...) says, RUBBISH! hahaha, i thought about how true it is, that everyone's first response to "how are you doing?" is "sigh...busy..." hahaha

anyways, our new fine arts center is opening this wednesday! how exciting?! and loft service is gonna be in there this sunday! whee! also, church retreat this weekend and family weekend at calvin...lots of piano time...what a perfect time for my wrist to be in pain huh? oh well, i love me a challenge, because Satan thinks this'll stop me from playing piano? HE'S WRONG. :) time to study.

Personal and Communal

my worship team had to lead calvin's chapel and LOFT (sunday service) all week last week...so i was hecka busy and there was almost no breathing time. but PTL! because homework was light, hahaha. anyways, so then i had to be at all the chapels (even though, i technically should go anyways :P) but it made me love calvin's chapel and loft! i went to VERY few of the services last year, so i wasn't too interested, but being sorta "required" to go, i really enjoyed each time. sunday after LOFT i was SO hyper that i was sitting at my desk flipping out, i kept telling everyone how hyper i was and everyone just thought i was crazy...i had so much extra energy with nothing to do. ANYWAYS, the point is: our relationship with Christ is both personal and communal. last year, God was kept reminding me the importance of a personal relationship with Him, and last year i learned to push myself to move forward...so like no more parents/brother reminding me to do what i'm suppo...

Lovey Dovey

this post is gonna deal a lot with 戀愛, haha, don't blame me, it's just what's been going on lately. because there's quite a lot, i'll try to condense it as much as possible. i'm also just jotting these down for my sake, because they work as a good reminder for myself, so don't feel obligated to read it. ha. 1) the things one does for the other this is coming from watching a lot of friends and the study of Exodus. so in Friends, Ross pretty much does ANYTHING for Rachel, he skips his dinosaur thingy for her, he does this and that for her, he's always sacrificing his own things for her. But Rachel never realizes. of course, being a TV show, she does eventually find out the stuff he does for her and goes awww. but anyways, it's just that, the receiving end never really knows what's going on in the sacrificing end, and kind of just takes everything for granted because...well, you're getting your way. anyways, i saw this in the study of Exodus too...

God Is So Good!

"尋求耶和華的甚麼好處都不缺。" 詩篇34：10b "God is so good, God is so good, God is so good, He's so good to me!" Man, this song perfectly captures my thoughts. God is SO good to me!!! 祢太愛我了。My ticket to Israel and Egypt was bought yesterday, and i've been trying to get a ticket for the longest time, but time just never seemed to be good enough, and when i finally settled down on one, my program's itinerary was changed...i was like RAWR! So i sent the updated itinerary to my agent, and PTL! I'm on the exact flight as the group, except I'll be flying from Phoenix and back!!! I'm so thankful, God knew before that the group flight would be changed, so no ticket was prepared for me, but now everything works out! 哇，太奇妙了。NEXT, I've been researching netbooks because I don't wanna bring my apple abroad, and netbooks are just easier...and I researched before I told my mom I was gonna buy one, cause then it'd be easier to convince her. So I also prayed befor...
