It was a blessed weekend!

Saturday: August 28, 2010
I had a 2 pm appointment to meet at the church but something happened importantly in the house. I was late then ^^
I reached at around 3:30pm. I had to teach some of my church mates on a dance presentation the following day. The team wasn’t complete.
After the dance practice, I had to meet my practice for our presentation. We practiced the song “God of this city” with the use of the grand piano... waahh! Notes! I cannot read notes!
I must admit that I had difficult time in singing the song although I know the song very well, but please do not let me sing that song using the chords or lyrics to be read in notes.
Then we proceed to our Saturday practice- The Praise and Worship practice. It was a bit tiring for me because I really had a tough time prior the practice. I was physically exhausted. At the back of my mind, I haven’t practice yet for my presentation for the Discipleship Convergence.
After our practice, I had now the chance to practice my piece. Oh…that was the moment I have been waiting because I have not sing that kind of song before with the band.
It was a successful practice. It was not just a practice. It was an exerted effort for the Lord.

By the way, my friends, Jai and Joris went in our church, not actually to visit me. But I really appreciate their time to stay in our church during practice. They were really supportive in what I do. (oh, I haven’t thank them yet)

It was Saturday! It couldn’t be complete without our usual bonding time spent at Dunkin Donut!
Whether our friend, Ren haven’t got back his car yet, the cravings for Icy Choco must go on! Haha!

After Dunkin Donut get together ( not actually a get together though), we visited our friend Ken. Oh what an overwhelming feeling to see our friend who happens to leave the church for like a year already. He was one of my friends in the church whom I trusted in a way. For a short time of our friendship, we, somehow shared stories of different experiences in life, and of course on how the Lord had been part of those experiences. I honestly miss him =(
I pray that one day, he’ll surprise us at the church and that he could spend time with us again.

I praise the Lord for the activities I had today. For the friendship that I have with people whom I also share with joy through Christ!

Lessons from the Lord’s Prayer

When Jesus taught His disciples the Lord’s Prayer, he was not giving them a prayer to memorize and recite every time they prayed.   He was giving them a model for their own prayers.   As you study the model prayer that Jesus gave, compare it with the prayers you offer to God.   What can you learn from the way Jesus prayed that can help you to be more effective in your own praying? (I am sharing material from my devotional book The Experience Day-by-Day with God by Henry and Richard Blackaby) God bless as you read.... Our Father This is how you should pray: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” -Matthew 6:9            Everyone wants to be loved.   God designed the family to be a source of love and encouragement.   If you have a family that loves you and that is in your corner, you can take on life with confidence.   But what is that is not your experience? What if, to you, family means cr...

Fast Delivery!

    photo at debragrayelliott.blogspot.com HATE LATE? This slogan of an ad must be familiar to you. You might not be patient to wait for something to fill in your stomach. How about in the concept of PRAYING? Do you pray and always wanting to be answered immediately? or you still pray even if there's no answer yet? They say when you pray, God will only respond in 3 ways: YES, NO, and WAIT. HATE LATE when it comes to prayer? God has never been late in answering our prayers. He wants us to WAIT for He will answer in His own terms, in His beautiful and perfect time. What are you thankful for? "I thank God for His perfect delivery in my prayer!" Let me share you my story... C ouple of weeks ago, I was sending resume to different media companies. I am still employed up to this time, but I still dream that one day, I could work in a media company. As you know, I am an English teacher for Korean students. I am capable of teaching but I am not a licensed tea...

Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. -Matthew 19:17 A person who is a good person is an individual of lofty ideals, noble purposes, strong character, reliable conduct and trustworthy integrity. The only one who truly embodies all of those characteristics is Jesus Christ. We come to understand the word goodness as we it alongside the word righteousness. Someone has said that justice is what God gives to us that we deserve. Goodness goes beyond that and is that which God gives us beyond what we deserve. The great characteristic of goodness as it is found in relationship with righteousness is generosity. It is what a person gets that isn’t deserved. It is what God gives to a person that could never be earned. Goodness in its relationship to righteousness teaches us about generosity. You don’t have to be rich to be generous. But what do you do with what you have? We need to take a good long look at our lives and ask God how our attitudes have been to the ...
