Its been a Long time since I was last on!! haha

But I want to share what is on my heart.

*Disclaimer!!!* If you are a girl, you probobly should not read this. It would be very, very awkward.

For the brothers, this is something I have been struggling with, and I think a lot of brothers struggle with this sin. The link is a sermon that was really helpful and uplifting to me as I was struggling, and I hope you will be blessed as well.

OK, so I've decided where i'm going to go. but first let me say that God really answers prayers. It may not be what you want but He answers them in His own way. Through this entire process, I've been praying to God asking Him to make it clear where He wants to lead me, especially in college. There were places that I really wanted to get into, but i wanted to make sure it was where God wanted me to go too.

Well, He made it very, very clear. I got my Wheaton acceptance first, and i was excited, but honestly i wanted to stay local so i didn't think much of it. I wanted to stay local because of friends and because of church. I was really excited about going to eCollege ministry. Wheaton had been my only out of state college. But then i got rejected from UCSD, which was dissapointing, since i really liked that college. So, i was still waiting for Irvine and still holding out hope for UCLA, since these campuses were close enough to stay here. Unfortunately i got rejected by both of those colleges too. =/

I was a bit suprised, I kinda understood UCLA and UCSD, but I really thought I was going to get into Irvine. And it was pretty hard at first, since I really wanted to stay local but got rejected from most major local colleges. But through this, I realised that God had answered my prayer, He made His plan for me clear, at least for college. I may have wanted to go to any college around here, but He wants me to go to Illinois. I don't know what i'm going to do there, but i trust that God has my future in His hand. When i remember this, i'm not that dissapointed anymore. I'm actually a bit relieved that God has shown me His plan. UC Berkeley and Biola havn't replied yet, but I think God has already shown me where He wants me to go.

So, finally, I believe God has called me to Chicago to go to Wheaton College!!! =)

Micheal, you're a great kid. visiting you at the hospital was a great experience for me and it really opened my eyes. You are the strongest person I have ever met and I really hope the rest of the recovery process goes smoothly. God bless you.

Another thing, I don't think I can eat Korean bbq for a while. Ate pine hill for freaking two and a half hours yesterday.It was GOOD though. =P

Hey, it's christmas eve, and my family is trying to eat at tgi fridays wich is just accross from Brea mall, and we can't find a place to park with everyone doing last minute shopping. We then go to buy new shoes because mine are atrociously worn out, and we encounter the same problem. It seems that this is the season where stress is at its highest.

It seems that people and society are moving too fast and they don't realize that there can be little things that can really lift someone up, calm someone down, or give comfort to someone hurting. People don't realize these things because they move too fast. They don't take the time to realize that God is in control and that you don't have to worry too much over things that don't mean much in the long run anyways.

We say we want God to work in our lives, to answer our prayers. But how many times do we expect Him to actually come through? How many times do we look for God's answer throughout the day? Last night I didn't feel like sleeping so I took a walk at one in the morning. There are no cars or people in the streets. I can walk in the middle of the road because theres no traffic.

I saw what downtown Brea was like when all the people and the cars are gone, and honestly, it was pretty cool. I don't know why it felt this way, but it felt special, like God was telling me to calm down because I have been worrying too much, so much that I have forgotten about His embrace and His security.

College apps are coming up in January, the semester is almost over and my grades are nowhere near where they should be, I'm helping out at church for various stuff, especially for retreat, and I've been trying to lose weight with very little success. I felt used up in school and burnt out in worship. I've been praying for God to rejuvinate me in every aspect of my life, and I felt so discouraged when He didn't answer me.

As I was walking at one in the morining, that was when I realized God was answering me, or at least He was there with me to guide me through life. It was me who wasn't answering God, who wasn't expecting God to do things in my life everyday.

How many times are we so busy that we put of QT or Bible reading, or prayer? It seems small, but God uses small things to do big works. I'm not saying that we should become lazy and compeletly let go. I'm just saying don't get too caught up in life that we miss God's blessings that He tries to pour out to us everyday. Expect it and look for it. At the very least, it is a source of encouragement. It was for me. =)

Merry Christmas!!!
