Today is our 151st day!

Here we go again. We’re so “busy” that we forgot to greet one another!

But we’re not mad with each other. We just laughed it off!
It was like, “hey! It seems like we’re so serious with our relationship huh?” (The other way around)
 
Anyway, yeah! I’m busy this week. I am a volunteer in our church children ministry’s VBS (Vacation Bible School).

It’s my 2nd day.

Second day of getting up early.

Second day of my unusual routine.
And I love it!

By God’s strength, I’m still up!
He sustains me and will sustain me for the coming days.

You know, it’s a humbling experience that the Lord gives you what you NEED.
I need strength and presence of mind.
I need wisdom and patience.
I need this experience to see HIS plans for me after my VBS experience.


I was just tapped 2 weeks ago and at first I was hesitant to join because of my work schedule – FEAR OF BEING LATE IN MY WORK!

But TWO days, the Lord brings me at the office ahead of time, safe and sound.

And I am enjoying my experience!

To see kids of different levels and with different behaviors. It reminds me of my Preschool job experience – handling kids one on one.
 
But this time, it’s not just about assisting those kids or helping them.
It’s about LEADING them to the Lord.
That they may know who their SAVIOR is.

And that is JESUS CHRIST!

I know I will be physically tired. But the Lord gives me good night sleep! It’s not my 8 hours of sleep but in 2 days, it was like I had it! Though I'm breaking my anti-caffeine rule. This time, I need it badly for me to stay awake for my Korean classes. aja~
 
All because of God’s grace, that’s why I’m still here.
God bless you!

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...

IKAW BA SI GALING?

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 ...
