Dear God,

o____o

I haven’t been on this tumblr for a while ><

So, it’s week 6. I still have a few more papers, one more midterm, and FINALS. For my HumCore research paper, I’m writing about…

Christianity in Korea!!

I’ll be writing about the pros and cons of the diffusion of Christianity in Korea during the 19th century. Please, please, PLEASE help me with this paper!

My face still hurts. Well, the sunburn isn’t as bad anymore. My face is really dry now. From now on, I will ALWAYSSSS use sunblock on my face. And use toner. This is a pretty bad sunburn, but now I learned to always take care of my face before heading out into a really, really hot day. (I just wanted to point out that I’m learning from my mistakes) ^^

Wow, how did I go from Christianity to sunburns? Anyways, I’m just so happy that I’m able to share everything and anything with You, God. I’m so glad I have a Father that’s always taking care of me. Through tough times, You are really there for me. Please keep me firm in my faith.. and help me to always be confident in You.

Thank You!

Love, 

Grace

Dear God,

I haven’t been on this tumblr for a while :/

Is this feeling from You? Or am I just wanting to think that it’s from You?

I’ll be praying about it. I want to talk about it, but I feel like it’ll seem ridiculous to someone else.

I know I’m being vague, but I really don’t want to say this outright before I can really know what this is. Maybe it’s just me. Maybe it’ll go away.

I’ll be praying & waiting.

Thank You, for everything.

Love,

Grace

Dear Lord,

Thank you so much. You really do provide and it’s amazing to see that You answered my prayer request so quickly. But, please help me to ALWAYS be thankful. Whenever there’s a bad situation I tend to get really upset and sulk for a long time. I think this is an attitude I really need to get rid of. 

Once again, thank you for today. Also, I pray that as I continue to read Isaiah, I hope that I will not be confused. I really pray for clarity and attentiveness as I read Your Word. Thank You.

Love,

Grace

Dear Lord,

I’m starting to get a little behind with my school work. BUT, thank you for this three day weekend. I was able to complete my math homework (before Wednesday) and relax before going back to school. This week is going to be a bit busy (in terms of school work) and I really do hope that You’ll give me strength, peace, patience, wisdom, and even knowledge. I’m especially nervous for my HumCore presentation. Dear Lord, help me to work hard yet also make room for You. I’m behind with my Bible readings for 2011 and I feel like i’m prioritizing a lot of a stuff before You. 

Thank you for this day and may I really live this week for You!!!

Love,

Grace

Dear God,

It’s Thursday! Wow, this week went by really fast. It’s going to be week 3 soon! >< This week is great so far! Yesterday I went witnessing for the first time with my 순장, Hee Sung 언니. I was really nervous at first. It’s like the nervous feeling I have before I do an oral presentation for a class (I’m so terrified of oral presentations). At first I didn’t talk much, but I did pray for two people. Afterward, I felt really.. refreshed. Showing love and comfort to people that I don’t even know is what God wants us to do. A huge weakness of mine is being afraid of sharing the gospel to people that I don’t know or even to my close friends (who aren’t Christians). I should fear God, not man. I pray that I will realize that God is the one who saves and that I shouldn’t be afraid at all. After all, Jesus went through persecution himself. 

At night I went to Irvine recomm! >< We went laser tagging and it was a great time of fellowship. I can’t wait for the Bible studies now! 

I went to KCCC’s open chapel today. God, I pray that I will remain faithful and alert during worship and sermons. Sometimes I feel so tired and burned out. I really do hope that you will give me strength, and may I never be tired of You!

This weekend is a long weekend. I really do hope and pray that I’ll be productive and keep up with everything! 

Thank you for an awesome week filled with fellowship.

Good night!

Love,

Grace

Dear God,

I had a great time with my 순장, Hee Sung 언니, yesterday. Thank you for giving us a wonderful time of fellowship! Today was okay. Just another day of classes. Although, for our HumCore oral presentation, we have to discuss whether or not Faust should go to Heaven. As much as I would like to say no, the evidence within the text nudges toward a yes. But then again, who am I to judge whether or not he deserves eternal salvation? I mean, even though he is an alchemist who wagers with the devil, if he did submit himself to You later on, then that would be an entirely different case. Aieeeee. I really do hope I will remain strong and faithful especially in my HumCore class! >< 

Tomorrow is going to be a great day! I only have math lecture and discussion. I’m going to go witnessing with KCCC tomorrow. I’m nervous, but I really do pray for YOU to be the one who saves. Also, Irvine recomm tomorrow! I’m excited for a time of fellowship! May we realize that You are within our conversations and in everything we do. 

Good night!

Love,

Grace

Dear God,

I went to church today! I learned that I need to share the fact that you are showering me with your blessings by sharing the gospel to the people around me! (Today’s sermon in a nutshell, I guess). I’m going back to school tomorrow. I already feel exhausted. I pray that you will give me the strength to keep studying (for you, of course ^^). I need to keep up with my readings! I have a great feeling about this quarter. Also, I feel like I should study really hard because I really, REALLY want to graduate in three years. I’m pretty sure I can do it.. there are going to be a couple of quarters where I have to take 20 units, but through you, I know that I can do it! Also, I plan on going witnessing on Wednesday with KCCC. I really hope that I won’t be nervous and that YOU WILL BE THE ONE WHO SAVES. Also, recomm on Wednesday! I look forward to it.

Oh man, it’s already week 2. This quarter is going to go by super fast. I pray that I will be blessed and filled with the Holy Spirit in everything that I do. Help me to study harder and pray harder. 

Well, I’m going to eat dinner soon, study (and hopefully focus), and sleep! Thank you for today, and I hope that I’ll really live this week out and for the rest of my life FOR YOU! :)

Love,

Grace

Dear God, 

I am dedicating this tumblr for You! I hope that through my posts, I will be able to reflect on my day’s events and realize that You are in everything that I do. I also hope that the people who read my posts will also take the chance to end the day by talking and really praying to You.

Today I went to HumCore lecture. I walk to class with Karen and I really like how we’re getting closer this quarter. I tried to stay awake in class. Then we went to the Science Library and then went to lunch. I had American Government (I can’t handle 1 hour and 20 minutes of it ><) and then I went to HumCore discussion. Throughout the day I was actually anticipating for KCCC Open Chapel. I was ready to sing songs of worship and get ready to hear Your Word! I thought there was going to be Recomm yesterday, but since there wasn’t I was really ready for Chapel!

Lord, thank you for helping me get into the discussion class I really wanted. I wanted to have the same HumCore discussion leader as last quarter. At first I was upset that I would be put on the wait list. However, one person dropped the class and I was able to get in! I know this may sound like a dumb, trivial thing to pray for, but it’s amazing to see that You answered my prayer on such a thing! I hope that i’ll use my studying to glorify You! May studying not be for me (or my parents), but really for You.

Open Chapel was amazing! I admit, I was a little sleepy, but it was a great time. Now I want to go witnessing not just because it’s “fun.” For 2011 and for the rest of my life, I want to win the day for You and just come to love the people at my campus and have a “holy frustration,” or hear brokenness (as Pastor Jonas Lee said) toward non-believing, unsaved people.

I came back with Jenny and as we were walking, we were eating nachos. haha. I’m glad we were able to walk together. I really don’t like walking by myself back to Mesa at night.

According to the Bible reading schedule that Sarang church gave out, I am 4 days behind my readings. I decided not to start reading Genesis and began reading Isaiah. I am trying to read 3-4 chapters a day: one in the morning, afternoon, and night. I feel like this is better than reading all 3-4 chapters at once because I get to experience and learn Your Word in between my classes and free time.

Ahhh, I’m tired right now. This letter seems rushed, but this was what I wanted to tell You today. Thank you for such a great day!

Love,

Grace
