youth conference.
Thank you Lord for showing Your power and majesty! Now here in Seattle for the SFC conference, show us even more, Lord! Amen.
Tuesday, July 25, 2006 1:55AM i was meant to be here. new header picture: Late 70's. my mommy, daddy and brothers are the ones in the middle. my mom is so pretty, my daddy so handsome, and my brothers so cute hehe :). i wasn't born yet. and now about 30 years later, here i am. created by God...for a specific reason, destined to be in this specific place, at this specific time. you see, He had it all written out. even as i started writing this entry a week ago, sitting in the LAX airport close to midnight catching a red eye to houston for the cfcy conference preps. the past month or so a lot has happened. visiting my family...and future family. cherishing time with my grandparents. witnessing and celebrating the 25th anniversary of the community that helped mold me into who i am today, and through which i serve to change this world. sharing in the joy of franny and dave's wedding, being renewed & inspired once again by a kuya father Francis recollection, and hearing one of my greatest friends is now engaged (pictures to come of all of that). but now i am here in Houston. Why? Because God destined me to be here. His plan is perfect and beautiful, though i do not know why. But there is a reason why i am here. and my heart starts to beat faster as i think of it, that God wants to use me for a specific purpose for this conference, as He does each of us. i was meant to be here, and i have to believe that. for it is His promise fulfilled. the more i understand the profundity that He had this planned even before i was born, the more i ache in my heart to be emptied of myself and be used by His Spirit to bring His glory and power to this conference, and to this world. Something big is going to happen. Something beyond you or me. and to think that we are a part of it?... what a good and gracious God we have! As the days count down to the conference, more and more of myself wants to disappear as He takes over. that He may increase as i decrease my mind, my thoughts, my actions, my speech, and my very being...that it may be transformed to his very likeness. Lord, hold our hands through this. we are nothing without you. Lord, this Aug 4,5,6, show your power and majesty to us all! Amen. I'll see you there.

Thursday, May 4, 2006 11:22PM happy birthday, daddy! protector. provider. pastor. friend. counsel. inspiration. model. my daddy...humble. strong. wise. funny. child-like. intense. enjoys life. understanding. open. genuine. real. happy. loveable. giving. from you i have learned things i could never learn from anyone else. your love for God, dedication of your life to Him and your sacrifice for others grabs me at my heart and squeezes it to feel only deep thanks to my God for blessing me with a daddy like you. uncomparable to others. thank you for raising me up the way that you did. thank you for loving mommy the way that you do so i know what i deserve too. :) thank you for being my model in words, thoughts and actions. i cherish having e a father that i know understands what i'm thinking, without me even having to say it. You taught me to "savor the moment." to seize this life God has given us. and to give it all right back to Him. You have molded me by every wise conversation we have had...and i can't explain to you the way i cling to your words. They resound in my head, at the times i least expect it. And that is God's voice speaking to my heart. that connection is amazing to me. God is so good to me. i have the best daddy in the world. i love you daddy. Here's to 60 blessed more years!

Wednesday, April 19, 2006 11:21AM new creation. I spent Easter with my parents seeing God's artistic hand in His beautiful creation of the Grand Canyon, just got off the plane the other night and now I'm in LA. I feel like God's been knocking at my heart, calling me back to him…to the way that it used to be. Since I've been reassigned to the US for Mission Work, somewhere along the way, something has happened that I swore I would never allow to happen….For me to forget. I have engrossed my mind and preoccupation in all the work to be done for the US, that I lost the feeling of riding on the tail of the the Holy Spirit sweeping through countries at a time. I remember while I was down there in Latin America, I would think to myself…if only people knew what life is like here. They wouldn't be so caught up in what they are doing for a "living". I mean what is the meaning of life anyway. For whom are we living? For what is any of this worth? Nothing...if it is not to bring yourself and the rest of the world as much as possible back to the God who made us and loves us. Through all my recent roadtrips, God has spoken to me loud and clear of how my soul longs to be out on mission, and how all other things just quickly fade away to nothing as I think of that freedom that only comes from being alone with my Father serving Him. For it is why I was even created in the first place. It is why I live and breathe this very moment. No other reason. I don't want to waste a single day of this life I have been given. Why work for something that will just fade away anyway. What really matters? What really has worth in this life? For whom do we live? I do not live for myself. I do not live to make my life pleasing to me. I do not live for success and accomplishment in the world's eyes. I do not life for conformity. I do not live for my gratification, but I live for God's glorification. For what else should I live for? What else can compare to a life lived for our God? But I am first made for God. I am first made to be alone with Him and I will forever be alone with Him and I cannot lose that, or I lose my life. We cannot afford to just live each day to day. We can't afford to make less of this life that we are living. We need to be waken up, shaken up. The moment i allowed myself to forget, is when i just let the days pass by without first remembering why i was created. I forgot. I forgot about the adventure this life is. And i realized that the worse thing i would ever want to fall into is to just live each day to day in a monotonous repetitive existence. So I'm going to be real...if you are, break out of it and start living! Don't waste your time. Don't make plans that won't build on your life's calling. Don't spend the majority of your day working for something that doesn't fulfill your heart's desire - God's call for you. Don't be with your boyfriend or girlfriend if you don't plan on marrying them soon or if you aren't making any efforts to get to the stage where you can say you will marry that person in the future. Don't let a day pass without asking God to renew you, for Him to show you more. Live anew...live for Him. For He promises that you will become a new creation. Lord, renew my heart. Let it live for you. For it's all about You, Jesus! Not about me. Give our lives true meaning. Let us live each moment for you. A great adventure is what you promise us. Show it to us! Alleluia! We praise Your Name! We love you Lord. Never let go of us. Thank you Lord...Amen.
