Redeeming Time

The end of semester madness has begun. Only 5 more days of classes, 3 exams, 2 weekends, 2 projects, and 1 reading day left and BAM! It's winter break and the anticipation of PASSION 2010!!....and Spring semester of course :]

On Sunday, Pastor John talked about Ephesians 5 and "making the most of every opportunity." I had to ask myself: Am I living wisely? Am I making the most of every opportunity? Am I making the most of my time and not taking anything or anyone for granted?

So Sunday night, I contemplated how I can really redeem my time the next two and a half weeks and the answer came: give up gchat and facebook, the two most addicting devices. It consumes me. It's time I learn to redeem that time in prayer and the Word. Day 1: absolutely difficult and miserable. I didn't know what to do!! Day 2: power of prayer and the work of the Holy Spirit and I'm A-ok! Well, maybe not completely but definitely a huge difference. I realized that I like to take breaks in between doing work so I turn to gchat and fb but 10 minute breaks turn into hours. Bad Bad Bad, I know. So, until Dec. 18 when I take my last final, I will try to redeem my time as much as possible and I know that God will do his work!

On the topic of prayer, it's amazing how refreshing prayer can be if you make it consistent in your life. Talk to God! He is listening. I'm trying something new here. Every time I find myself sitting on my butt and thinking about my future or what I'm struggling with, I instead pray. It is written,

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

When I pray, I can also pray for my brothers and sisters, pray for this world, pray for my classmates, pray for my family. There are so many people in my life who are important to me so I know that praying for them is the greatest gift I can offer.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. James 5:16

I really am thankful for the people in my life! I couldn't have asked for the most encouraging family in Christ. Let's make every relationship God-centered and redeem time with every person you know!

Everyday

by Hillsong United

What to say, Lord? It's
You who gave me life and I
Can't explain just how
Much You mean to me now
That You have saved me, Lord
I give all that I am to You
That everyday I could
Be a light that shines Your name

Everyday, Lord, I'll
Learn to stand upon Your word
And I pray that I
That I might come to know You more
That You would guide me in every single step I take, that
Everyday I can
Be Your light unto the world

Everyday, it's You I live for
Everyday, I'll follow after You
Everyday, I'll walk with You, my Lord

Everyday, Lord, I'll
Learn to stand upon Your word
And I pray that I
That I might come to know You more
That You would guide me in every single step I take, that
Everyday I can
Be Your light unto the world

I've been singing this song over and over in my head a lot these days. I live on a day-by-day basis so it's so easy to choose to do the same things and let the day pass by quickly but it really comes down to making each day count. I want to treasure the 24 hours of the day when I meet up with people, or spend time in the Word, or even when I study or do one of my gazillion interviews for a story. I'm thankful to be learning about God's faithfulness every day. It's gonna be a jam-packed weekend of amazing blessings!

Seeking and Finding

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. Matthew 7:7, 8

When I get too caught up in the finding part, I forget that I need to seek first. How am I ever gonna find anything if I am not seeking? I want to seek after God and God alone, nothing else. Greater things are yet to come!


On another note (cuz i can never stay on topic): I always start each week freakin out about my story for the radio newscast on Wednesday. Who and when am I gonna interview? When am I gonna have time to go into the lab? blah blah blah. But somehow, everything always works out. HAH! buttt yessss it's the beginning of the week...let the fun times begin. First LIVE cast this week!! Tune in to UI-7 News

What I have learned.

Boring title I know, but this entry is really about what I've learned this week. Through all the stress, sickness, acne, God is faithful AND he's in complete control. I found it soooo hard this week to not complain. One thing went wrong and it was a domino effect of other things going wrong and me getting really emotional about it all. Prayer really pulled me through. I asked my family to pray for me, my friends to pray for me, my leaders to pray for me and man, it made such a difference!! Thank you thank you Jesus!

Highlights:
1. care package from my leaders with endless meds and goodies
2. gchat convo with my roomie
3. lobster with 2 very crasssy and lovely ppl in my life
4. finally waking up past 8am
5. talking on the phone with mom
6. reading the Word and loving it

For in him we live and move and have our being.
Acts 17:28

Sporadism

I am a sporadic email checker, sporadic schedule planner, sporadic eater.

There's one thing I don't want to be sporadic about: Loving Jesus. I want to love him every minute of the day. I don't mind being sporadic about everything else.

Teach me to be patient

Amen.

Nothing to say really

I called my mom today, a little embarrassed that I had nothing prepared to say or give or do. 2010 marks the silver anniversary of my parents but today marks 24 years of God's faithfulness in my parents' marriage life. I can only hope and wish that my own marriage life will reflect even a little bit of theirs. When I see how far they've come, how they've endured and fought through every thick and thin moment, I am simply humbled and thankful. I'm so thankful that they dealt with 20 years of my craziness.

When my mom picked up the phone and I stuttered the words "Happy Anniversary," she answered with the most genuine "Thank you" and "I love you." At that moment, I felt the love of Jesus pouring from a simple phone conversation, through a phone call I almost didn't make. How many times a day does God bless my every sleeping and waking moment and I don't realize it? All I do is call my sister and complain about how horrible my day went instead of acknowledging the good things that happened. But today, I am reminded AGAIN that God IS FAITHFUL despite the highs and lows I go through.

I tell this story to everyone I know and I repeat it over again and again to myself because it's a picture perfect portrait of answered prayer! When my mom was once a wee child, she hated the mornings her older sisters would wake her up and drag her to morning prayer. She dreaded sitting through the sermons and only wanted to crawl back into bed and sleep. Even in those times, she prayed apologetically to God for not wanting to be there and asked that some day, she would find a hot and holy man who loves God more than she. She probably didn't think much of what she prayed but it helped her get through those mornings. Lo and behold, she is a pastor's wife! Some people may think it's too early to pray for their significant other but my mom prayed for him as a little girl! It's never to early because God is more than happy when you entrust this area of life into his hands. Don't fret!

Thanks umma and appa. I'm glad to be your daughter. You inspire me every day and love me even when I fail a bazillion times. You show me God's perfect love.

Happy Anniversary!

step by step

As much as I like to plan things WAY ahead of time, I think I'm learning to take everything one day at a time. I'm all about the long-term commitments and future plans but I tend to avoid what's happening right in front of me. Every move I make, every word I say, every person I meet, every step I take counts towards something greater that is yet to come.

This year, my goal is to strive to make each moment count. Not just the really exciting ones or ones I feel most passionate about but even those that seem so mundane. I know that God has given me each moment for a reason. I don't want to live for this world but live for his kingdom. That's gonna take a step by step, day by day commitment through the power of prayer.

"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day." 2 Corinthians 4:16


On another note (cuz I can never stay on topic), today is my dear sister's bday. Happy 22nd bday sana!

Welcome Home.

God is good. All the time.

Lying in bed for the second day in a row gives me time to reflect on this week. Jgen 2009: I am thankful, humbled, in awe, excited, and too many other emotions all at once. More than anything this week, I had to keep checking my heart. God is teaching me to fight the sin in my heart every single waking moment. I have these two stickers by my webcam and i can't help but crack up every time i read them. "don't cry" and "fighting!" Yes, these are straight from the motherland and I can totally associate them with myself. they help me get through my debbie downer days.

God is working. He has been working. He keeps on working and never stops. Why? Cuz he wants my messed up heart to keep coming back to him. There were so many highs and lows this week but all in all, I am grateful for the opportunity to serve and to learn. What is even more encouraging is having other brothers and sisters to fight with who keep pushing me. It's crasssy what 4 days together can do. I feel like i know all these ppl inside out now. keep serving guys.

please pray i recover from this illness of mine by monday. i want to go to nyc. last hoorah of the summer and time to pack and be on my merry way. i will miss home dearly but i am excited to see what's in store this semester! Sooo excited to see my class ppl serve! muahaha

God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.

Take my hands and make them clean
Keep my heart in purity
That I may walk in all You have for me

Oh here I stand
Arms open wide
Oh I am Yours
And You are mine


God is good. All the time.


Journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee returned home!!
I am in shock but pretty much super glad knowing that God is always good and I never gave up hope that Laura and Euna would come home soon. When I heard they were sentenced to 12 years in labor camp, I was devastated but had this inkling that this would not follow-through and once again, God shows his power. Pray big prayers!

God is good. All the time.

This is our God

By the power of your word
I am restored
I am redeemed
By your spirit i am free
And i will fall at your feet


I turned on Pandora this morning and this is the first song that played. What a great reminder. Although I have major allergies and had little sleep, God is good. He never fails to amaze!

Last night we gathered for Bible study at church and I expected it to be just four of us but it ended up being eight! God really worked in our intimate gathering as we studied the book of Acts. Pray BIG prayers guys! No joke. Our God is not small.

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

1. Be joyful
2. pray continually
3. give thanks
Simple, yes. But why so hard to follow? God gives us something so incredible called faith. Make me faithful 100%. J-GEN next week!!





On a side note: I have this little obsession with Jackie O's timeless fashion

Finding Joy

"The misunderstanding of this book that I want most to avoid is that I am writing to make well-to-do Western Christians comfortable, as if the joy I have in mind is psychological icing on the cake of already superficial Christianity. Therefore let me say clearly here at the beginning that the joy I write to awaken is the sustaining strength of mercy, missions, and martyrdom."

Too selfish

In 1 Peter 2:11, 12 it says,

Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.

P. John's sermon yesterday really spoke to me. What are my sinful desires? We have this perception that we lack this one thing and if we only have that, it will make our lives better. Basically, you want what you don't have. Simple example: when I go shopping, I always tell myself I won't buy anything but then I find that ONE article of clothing that I feel I MUST have in order to make my wardrobe complete. Lo and behold, once I get that article, I STILL don't feel complete. It's a never-ending cycle. My sinful desire for buying things is always at war with the soul that is completely fulfilled only with love for Christ. In truth, what do I lack when I am God's beloved? Nothing. Nothing of this world will satisfy.
Galatians 5:16-18,

So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.

This is such a scary thought but it's the truth. I realize more and more that my selfishness is a product of my sinful nature but with repentance, the Spirit can conquer. How amazing is that!

Let's not let our sin overcome but fight for purity. Fight for righteousness. Fight for something real. What more can we ask for?

Can I complain just this once?

I contemplated whether to blog about today or to erase it from my memory and I have chosen the former.

Today...was...weirdd....

I went to my internship today and although I love the people I am working with, my program director could be somewhat boring at times and she tends to mumble a lot. For one, she has a really low voice (because she dambae pyuhs) and it's pretty monotone. When she showed us her sponsorship proposal and how to write it, sorry to say I was falling asleep and the heat in the backroom did more worse than good. There's a/c but for some reason they don't turn it in. Probably to save money.

Anywayssss, after she talked about her 15 page proposal and the guy who got murdered in front of her house, she told me and another intern to go back out to division street and give out invitations to our golf fundraiser in august. Feeling relieved to get out of the office for a while, we walked to the puerto rican parade office to give them an invitation. The secretary seemed pretty annoyed and said "Have a nice day" as we were leaving but she said it with the most unenthusiastic tone.

As we walked on one side of division street, there was a group of maybe four guys standing outside of a mart and we got hollered at. EW. one guy even cracked out a racist comment clearly directed towards me, since the other intern is white.

Sooo...we moved to the other side of the street and got hollered at again by a different group of guys! double EW.
[Note: Neither of us acknowledged those maniacs and neither of us were even wearing immodest attire. We were both wearing t-shirts and jeans and sneakers]

Anddd I really wish we didn't do what we did next: we walked into the ---- office and the ceo/president got friendly with my fellow intern right away. triple EW. He kept us there for a good 40 minutes but it felt like two hours of my life shriveling away. He talked so close to our faces and kept patting our backs and even stroked the other girl's hair. If he got any close to touching my hair, I would have punched him! FINALLY he let us go and we went back to the office to eat lunch.
[Note: I have nothing against the organization because it is doing great things for needy families.]

I happily spent the rest of the afternoon in the office printing and stuffing envelopes.
On the bus ride home, this guy sat next to me when there were so many open seats on the bus and he naem sae nah-ed. -____-

OK, I'm done being grossed out for the day but never again will I complain of my boring director and the hot backroom. And never again do I want to set foot on division street.

Relationships

I wrote practically everything I wanted to say in my plaid, hardcover journal so I have nothing left to say here...hehehehe
well, it's been a while since I actually started and FINISHED a whole book but this is where I break my streak

I kissed dating Goodbye by Josh Harris


I have to say that this book is GOOD. It really opened up my mind on relationships in general (not just guy-girl). It made me really evaluate my actions, thoughts, speech. What better time to read this than now when I'm not in a relationship? That way when people question me, I don't have to hide anything. hehe. I highly recommend this book. Very practical and very Bible-based. A good balance of perspective. Do not be fooled by the cover and title.

Listen to the author himself.

i'm boring.

Come What May









I enjoy stimulating convos. i had so many this past weekend on the topic of credit cards to past crushes to God's grace. i must say i've learned a lot about myself, the world, other people. Let's have more stimulating convos!

kosta! over and out.

Blog vs. Journal

I read about 15 other blogs. Some are really deep and some are just for fun. i think mine falls in between. i blog for the fun of it but then it's not that fun when i read it again. i blog to get some deep thoughts down but i never really hit that level and i shift over to my hardcover plaid journal from target. gosh, no consistently i know. i wonder if this applies to other things in my life. i wish not.

This week is prep time for kosta 09. physically, mentally, spiritually. time for a revival.
time to anticipate all the things God will do next week. exciting? heck yea.
you know what? it will be just as good this week.
love love.

"i don't wanna get over her. i wanna get her back."
one two three. AWWWWW

Korean dramas really make me think.

two things i found puzzling in the drama i'm watching:
- comfortable love is best
- money is scary

I really enjoy vid chatting :]


soooo once i thought i figured out my heart motive, i was told to evaluate it in times of extreme emotions. i felt some really extreme emotions this past weekend and i tried to evaluate. i think i might have partially succeeded but partially failed. I'll try again next time.
one thing i know, i dont have to PROVE my salvation. my faith is proof enough. I thank God!
sam's club and i went to the harold washington library on saturday and we both got such a huge pile of books that we almost sweat our butts off trying to carry them all home. my goal: to read them all. 9 total. i dont read much cuz i read soooo slow. all the books i got are christian books and i'm hoping that through those and the wonderful bible, i can make some solid decisions about my life this summer. prayer and anticipation

i have a secret rooting game. j.lee, i'll muzzle u in ur sleep if you spill the beans!
over and out.

Summer

So my internship got cancelled the next 3 weeks (well one week i cancelled it myself cuz of kosta) and i realized that with all this time, I need to make some goals in life if i wanna get anywhere and do anything useful starting with my summer goals.
in no particular order,

1. catch up on bible reading (one month and 2 days behind and it stays that way unless i start reading more than one day's worth)
2. be active (physically - jogging in the morning, softball, tennis, jumping jacks? watever)
3. read (and finish) some good christian books
4. complete: kimbo scholarship app, nbc app
5. learn (and master) videography and sound editing
6. STOP spending so much money! scrape and save for dreams of traveling
7. PRAY! for many many things. God's throwing me curveballs left and right and i'm missing each one. i dont wanna strike out!
8. get at least 150 in bowling :P
9. clean up my new space and pack EFFICIENTLY for school
10. practice French! i need to go to paris

that's all for now i guess...can't get too ahead of myself now.
also, i need to stop living life in fear. fear of failure. fear of rejection. fear of regret. fear of hurt. FDR said "Only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
i say, the one thing you need to fear is the Lord.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.

Psalm 111:10


on that note, living life on the edge is good, but i want to see the day when I am willing to jump off with the confidence that God will give me wings and i dont go crashing to the ground.



i really miss dancing. i do.

reflections on a single female

Everyone reaches that age when all your friends are getting married and you're attending wedding after wedding. I wonder...what if you're the last one? Wouldn't you feel left out? Do people scramble to be the first to go? In this day and age, it seems like there's no real competition anymore. Most people are so caught up getting their careers together that there's no time to settle down, let alone "look&find" their significant other. Traditional Korean parents are learning to adjust to their second gen children and maybe even accept the fact that their child will never be wed. Sad? you decide.

As for me, I am in no position or age to get married now but I do think about it a lot. I don't think it's very good for my mental health. The answer: pray.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
Jeremiah 29:11-13


Good to know there's a plan. Believe it or not, your life is already planned out for you. SO stop trying to control it!

T-storms

"The end of a matter is better than its beginning,
and patience is better than pride." Ecclesiastes 7:8



Even though I stay indoors most of the time...when the rains come, I suddenly have this urge to go outside. But i can't.
i dislike rain very very much.
it was thundering sooo loud earlier but now all the thunder i hear is from the tape my bro turned on that has t-storm sounds, car horns, and rain. kinda funny.

anywayss...some lovely pics of my 20th bday. photo credits to nahms park.

my loving bro timothy wrote me a poem for my bday

Each year with age
Hair turns shades of grey
But don't worry, or forwn
No need for dismay

Things like this
Are not always beyond repair
Our birthday gift this year
advanced facial care

Sadly, with age
Tour nails start to tarnish
So we fixed it all up
With "Christmas-colors" varnish

Finally to relieve all the stress
That's built up overtime
We massaged your face
With help of videos online

Happy 20th Birthday
In this very real thought
Prompted by the signs
Your Birthday brought

dramas galore

Battle of the Smithsonian

I'm obsessed with night at the museum 2. it's freakin hilarious and i've been watching it over and over again.


star of the movie: kahmunrah.



everything he says and does cracks me up!

best lines:

to ivan the terrible- "I just told mr. capone here this is not a dress it is in fact a tunic, very big difference."

to jedidiah - "i just cant take you seriously. you're just adorable. even when you're threatening me it's hilarious. is it just me or are these guys unbelievably cute?

to darth vader - "is that you breathing because I can't hear myself think. can i make one suggestion to you, my friend just to simplify this there's just too much going on here, you're evil, you're automatic, you're a robot and what is the cape for? are we going to the opera? i don't think so. "

honorable mentions:

general to sacajewea - "you sacajewaqoieurjk. sacademia. sac-in-the-box. cincodemayo."

napoleon to larry - "were you guys like friends in college and now both afraid to move your relationship like telling the other person you want to be more than friends like you like like each other?"

jed to kahmunrah - "you know there are 2 words that come to mind when i hear you talk: delusional and weirdo. and if i had to say a third: goofy. just goofy."



and before i take all the good jokes from the movie....GO watch it!

i go against everything i said! i hate cleaning!
i'm not cleaning for another month!


these madd allergies won't go away!



the economist who lectures my online course is getting on my nerves! he keeps swallowing really loud and it's really really gross. why am i so super annoyed right now?

i'm a governess

i happen to be a maid in my own home. but elisee said a better word is governess.
i earn my room and board by cooking and cleaning

yesterday, i cleaned my sister's entire closet and discovered that she got more clothes than me!! it took me all morning and i rewarded myself with a shower and super extravagant salad with strawberries and everything!

today, tackle the basement and other sister's pigsty. cleaning kinda relieves me. i feel better about myself. weird i know.



not gonna lie, i was super impressed when b pulled up in his mustang convertible (his dad's actually) and the top down. i got to ride shotgun and the baby had to sit in the back with her hair tickling her neck the whole way. sweeeeet ride.

no this is not the actual car...i found a picture online :] :]

Nice try, mom.

Mom: don't they have sub place or something near north park?
me: yes they do
Mom: why don't you just buy something for lunch?
me: because if i'm gonna buy something, i have to buy it with my own money and you're not gonna pack me lunch. are you gonna give me money to buy a sub?
Mom: no. AISH!

Start of Something New

So after starting this blogspot as well as a tumblr account, I decided to stick to tumblr and delete my blogspot. After failing at my tumblr and being told that I'm lame, I undelete this blogspot and try again.

Can you say obsessed? When I get obsessed with a song, it's pretty much play 24/7 until I get sick. the winner right now? FIRE by 2NE1
Although these girls are pretty hot in both MVs, I can't get enough of the street version!
the leader, CL, is only 18! and Minzy (she caught my attention right away) is only 15! Bom is 25 and Dara is 24.

they finally debuted on stage




on a different note...haha
hillsong came out with a new CD! Tear Down the Walls
I like You Hold Me Now

Philippians 4:6 always comes back to rebuke me.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
