Ah, idk

What a weird picture I chose for this blog... I just couldn't find another one, so yeahhh.

I just felt like writing (or typing, I guess) again, so I "reverted to draft" all my old posts from 2009/2010 and decided to start fresh as I begin to prepare for my freshman year of college. 

Lately, God has been revealing Himself so much to me. There was a point in time when I just felt so spiritually dry and apathetic toward everything. By His amazing grace, however, I was able to encounter the perfect people who showed me perfect love at a perfect time. Although there are no people or things without flaw in our world, everything seems so perfect in God's perfect timing and in His perfect plan. As I was driving home today, I was praying that God would reveal even more of Himself to me. And that's when I remembered the sometimes repetitive Bible studies with Pastor Young. "The Bible is the revelation of God." I became so encouraged to read the Bible and just see even more of God's beauty.

Also, today during mission training, Pastor Moses asked our team, "How many of you in here are completely sure that you are going to heaven?" And for the first time in my life, I didn't have to second guess myself. For the first time, I was able to raise my hand confidently without any doubt. It felt so good. Why? Because I knew that nothing, not the sins that I committed, the sins that I commit, nor the sins that I would commit in the future, could change the fact that Jesus Christ died, in my place, and resurrected. And it is not by my works that I am saved, it is by His grace. Nothing will ever change that. 

God is so great and He is so real. He is so beautiful, He is so giving, He is so amazing. He is so loving, He is so wonderful, He is so... yeah, amazing. :)
