please...

heal uncle steve.

remove the hopelessness on their faces
restore them
It seems as though they're trying so hard to reach You, for Your power, but to no avail. They look so discouraged, so despondent. It kills to see them so down.

I love them all so much, but I know Your love for them is far greater and unwavering. You'll come through.

if I say that I miss you

you'd probably wouldn't believe me anyway

every time I want to send you a greeting, I withhold because I'm scared... of the rejection, of the silence. Instead, I'd type it out anyway and then imagine sending it, praying that the message would still reach you somehow, through magical wings, via God.

job. aspirations.

it looks like it, the start of the next phase of life. This current period after all, is pure fantasy and a waste of breath anyway. Is it of any value to be a kid forever? My life so far is rockstar. I will miss being the entertainment IC and party coordinator. I guess, it’s time to grow up. But does growing up... entail working? Pursuing a career? Bringing home the cash? Does this define what growing up means?
let this secular task be ministry, and let all my actions be worship. In fact, there will be no divide between what is secular or not, let everything I do be scrutinised by You. Only then will there be meaning and truth in everything I do. Growing up simply just means I'm being used by you in the area of grown up matters.

I will rock in my job, I will rock it so hard

in the drudgery of work I will find passion & worship
in workplace politics I will choose love
in the people and departments I will see ministry
in anger and confict, I will choose Christlikeness
in everything please give me the strength to follow Jesus

give me love so that I can love others
give me wisdom so that I can change the systems
give me open doors and opportunities to shine for you

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

Hey Jem, hope you like it! May the shoes hold the blessed feet of this blessed man who goes forth to the marketplace in the name of Jesus Christ & unto His glory. God bless you, my dear nephew! Blessings...
-My uncle, who bought me my first pair of working shoes

I'm so pumped on starting work!

decisions.

well, a second interview had come today- the dream job I had previously wanted so much.
Had you called earlier, it'd have been really tough to choose. Was this meant to be? This whole difference in timing had made my job selection way too easy.
I realize, I actually do have passion(s), whether it was in that job, or the current one I have accepted, both have struck me with a lot of interest. It'll be mental, and I will love it.

big. bang.

돌아보지 말고 떠나가라 또 나를 찾지 말고 살아가라 너를 사랑했기에 후회 없기에 좋았던 기억만 가져가라 그럭저럭 참아 볼만 해 그럭저럭 견뎌 낼만 해 넌 그럴수록 행복해야 돼 하루하루 무뎌져 가네
