Oh Lamb of God, Sweet lamb of God I love the Holy Lamb of God Oh wash me in His precious Blood My Jesus Christ the Lamb of God: School starts in a week, and I have disappointed myself this last school year. Help me to be better, but only with Your strength, Your prayer, and Your continuous and bountiful love which you have never failed to give. Wash me again. I was so lost I should have died ...

Written by an anonymous guy: You are a woman of beauty. You know who you are. You will not be defined by another man, or compromise your boundaries. You will not be pushed around, you will stand for purity. You refuse to give anyone your heart, you demand that they pursue it, and prove that they can protect it. You are secure in who you are, you don’t live off the praises of others. You...

Emails

This was an email conversation I had with the woman I used to work with. Before I came to Davis, I was a occupational therapist and I worked with a severely autistic kid (Jonathan) for two years. The work was hard, but I always enjoyed going. It’s been almost about a year since Kim (the mom) contacted me, and it really made my day knowing that I made that big of a difference in her life! She...

Frustration

If only the people in this world weren’t so selfish for themselves. If only they could listen to what you had to say, lend a hand, or not put their interests ahead of yours. If only they took a second look at what the situation was instead of arguing for themselves. Or if they weren’t so derogatory, self-centered, egotistic, narcissistic, so wrapped up in what THEY have to say.. ...

“At the end of your life, when you stand before God, and he asks, “Did you learn love?” what will you say? Will you show him your accomplishments? Or will you show him the times it was hard but you still held on to a friendship; the times you wanted to leave, but you stayed; the times you were hurting, but you forgave. If you have the love of Christ working inside of you, it will always...

Dear Lord, I come to You in brokenness today. I give myself over to You even in my weakness and frailness. No matter if I’ve been broken by sin or circumstances, I ask You to fill my broken pot and pour out through me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Don’t you guys feel like you’re always busy or distracted? I feel like there’s always something to do…whether it’s class, internship, dboat, church…the list goes on… But then, I also remember peace. The feeling of rest and being able to listen to God’s soothing voice saying verses on rest, abiding by his commands instead of following my own. I miss...

Sadly to say, I haven’t been involved in church here in Davis as much as I’d like to be. After 5 years of serving back at my own home church, it kind of became a comfort zone to me- it almost required me to stay at church 4 days/week, be a part of a regular bible studies, hang out with fellowship all the time, lead small groups…overall, to be fully immersed into the culture of...

You vs Me

You meet a lot of different people in college- but no one ever comes close to those who are filled with the humility of Christ, His love, grace, and mercy. There’s always a huge difference when I hang out with those who are Christian vs the non Christians. It’s hard to be with those where in an environment, all they want is best for themselves: the element of selfishness. As...

2011

The best winter break yet. Spent it with everyone I needed to without running out of time, and had the best NYE ever. Starting this year off right! 2010 was really good. I almost couldn’t say it- but (sigh) no regrets. Overall, this has probably been one of the better years (: For new years resolutions- let’s set our hearts and minds on not what our flesh wants- but instead, on the...

Thanksgiving!

Thankful for: - God for His provisions. Thank you for being so gracious and compassionate. The LORD is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all he does. The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them. The LORD watches over all who love him, but all the wicked he will destroy. My...

College is Amazing!

But right now, I’m pretty sure I’m most thankful for my dragon boat team and even the sport itself- I think I can say it’s been one of the best decisions of my life. I’ve enjoyed all 3 teams I’ve been on- the feelings and emotions- from being so wrapped up in the camaraderie of the sport to the adrenaline rush at the starting line, looks of relief at the finish. That...

A Good Reminder

Just a short (edited) email I wrote to a discouraged friend earlier: I think the one thing that has gotten me up and running is learning this- You can’t always depend on people to give you that love and support, and maybe sometimes not even us (even if we’re a stable group of friends). People will let you down eventually, and sometimes we can’t always be there for you, and...

Typical Wednesday Morning

I’m really really blessed to be at UC Davis- I still feel a little overwhelmed every time I step onto campus each morning, even though it’s been a month of school already. This is still such a weird lifestyle to live in- crowded morning buses, gigantic lecture halls, running into bikers… But you know, in a way, the whole “getting away from home and experiencing...

Mom.

I hope I never take mom for granted. She’s my best friend, my support system, and the epitome of home. And when I’m weary, disheartened, discouraged…she’s only a phone call away, even when it’s 1:30 in the morning.

Philippians 4:4

Reminders: God is at work to sanctify my heart. God is at work in adversity to accomplish his good purposes. God is at work in these trials to deepen my relationship with Him. Our joy cannot come from our circumstances. I can’t alter my circumstances, so instead, I must transform my perspective. “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice”

Steadfastness

As of late, I’ve been feeling pretty down when it comes to God. I feel like I’ve never really struggled with my faith before, but now I know what “hard” feels like…the feeling when you start questioning everything you thought you knew about God or even His love. It’s sad to say, even all He has done for me, all the blessings I’ve experienced, all the...

Relationships

I was doing some homework yesterday when one of my housemates came knocking and crying into my room yesterday- eyes red and puffy, wrapped in a blanket, tissues in hand. She was very close to her grandpa and he had suddenly passed away that night. My first reaction- I was stunned because as a house, I felt as if we never had that bond or comfort of knowing each other- (heck, it’s been 3...

Hello fellow bloggers :) Sorry I’ve disappeared for so long. I’ve been going through some big adjustments in life as of late, and the biggest issue was being able to trust God through it all.
