Perseverance and Responsibilities.

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."

Romans 5:1-11

"By the grace of God, I go."
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

"With All I Am:

Into Your hand
I commit again
With all I am
For You Lord

You hold my world
In the palm of Your hand
And I'm Yours forever

Jesus I believe in You
Jesus I belong to You
You are the reason that I live
The reason that I sing
With all I am

I will walk with You
Wherever You go
Through tears and joy
I'll trust in You

And I will live
In all of Your ways and
Your promises forever

I will worship
I will worship You forever."

-Hillsong.

Total Dependency on God.

"Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;
Before you were born I sanctified you;
I ordained you a prophet to the nations."

Then said I:

"Ah, Lord God!
Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a youth."

But the Lord said to me:

"Do not say, 'I am a youth,'
For you shall go to all to whom I send you,
And whatever I command you,
you shall speak.
Do not be afraid of their faces,
For I am with you to deliver you," says the Lord."

-Jeremiah 1:4-8 [New King James Version]

Active.

"And He said to them, "Which of you shall have a friend, and go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me on his journey, and I have nothing to set before him'; and he will answer from within and say, 'Do not trouble me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give to you'? I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as many as he needs.
"So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"
-Luke 11:5-13 [New King James Version]

I shall actively ask.
I shall actively seek.
I shall actively wait.
And I will trust in His Love and goodness.

Whatever I will do with my life, it will not be wasted.
Life full of regrets and dead dreams is my worst nightmare.

To Have Our Hope in God Alone.

"a man has a choice. that's why we are different from animals."

"what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger."
-my highschool law teacher.


life is not easy, but life is good.
i shall do my best every moment, take one day at a time, and leave the rest in the hands of God.
i am forever thankful for the people whom God has put in my life, but it is only God in whom I shall have my hope.

Summer. Then 2007-2008.

Looking back, the theme of this summer has been 'the exploration of the new': new place, new church, new people, new job, and new experiences.

And truly, I am done with exploration for now, and ready to go back anew.
2007-2008 shall be simple yet focused, and genuine and from the heart.

God Bless,
-Kim.

"NHF Retreat - Break Out"

some notes after NHF retreat:

Recently I have witnessed lost souls find their Love.
My heart has tasted the real joy of living, and one's touched heart overflows with tears of joy and gratitude.

The arms of my heart are lifted high.
Its lips are praising the songs of Love.
The wetted eyes of my heart twinkle at the beauty of the Lord’s creations.


The quiet sound of the river gently caresses my soul, calming my heart's storms and rains.
And the mountain’s breeze winds through my heart, bringing peace to my soul.

I lie down on grass and watch the clouds flow by, embracing the sky and the earth and the whole.

There, I become small, and the Lord, in control.
There, I weep and whisper in Hid ears that my heart desires to seek Him again, and to be full in His Love once again.

All these praises and delights, I have kept in my heart.


Oh Lord…
Let me be Your faithful servant forever and ever...
