09:05 pm - graduation
im finally done!!!

well almost...i am graduating from esthetician school tomorrow at 2:30 and i bought my massage license yesterday so everything is coming to an end (school wise). i am about to start a whole new season of my life and i am so excited, and yet so scared at the same time. i guess i am more nervous than anything. most of the time, i am not the biggest fan of change but i do know that great things can come out of it, so i try to stay open but its very hard...i get stuck in routine. i love knowing exactly what i have to do every day, but if its something that i dont like all that much i can get frustrated and bored (ie:school) so when ever i do something new im hesitant because i like to stick with it for the long run...i am committed to do it, i dont want to have to try it for a while then end up having to quit because im in over my head. i hate that. but i also know that i will never learn anything if i dont get out there and figure it out and try it at least for a while...thats something that my very wise dad always tried to make it be known with us girls, "its not a mistake if you learned something new from it. either never do that again or you love it or you learned something new about yourself, but try it. i am always here to help you." i love that about my family.they are always so supportive and thoughtful. like tonight we went out to thai smile (fav. restaurant) and when we got to the table there was a bouquet of roses and a hand written noteencouraging me and saying that they re proud of me...i almost cried. i felt really blessed. they were helping me celebrate my finishing up in school!! im so excited that im done. but i am also nervous because i still have to take my state board exam -very stressful- and then how am i going to transition to working as a therapist and am i going to still help out at the front desk...so many new things to think about...please pray for me... everyday is brand new journey in finding out who i am in this world and what God is wanting me to do with my life...
i think that is all that i can share right now...i havent posted in so long...i hope that wasnt too much...

12:42 am - a "hmmm" from oswald this evening
"discouragement is disillusioned self-love, and self-love may be love for my devotion to Jesus-- not love for Jesus Himself."

hmmm

05:47 pm - amazing hymn (i think its called 'Come to Jesus')
Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
Raise your head, for Love is passing by
And come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live


Now your burdens lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stains
So sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live

Like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk sometimes we fall
So fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live

Sometimes the way is lonely
And stiff and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain
Then cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live

And when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside
Then dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live

With your final heartbeat
You kiss the world goodbye
Go in peace, and laugh on glory's side
Then fly to Jesus
FLy to Jeus
Fly to Jesus and live

Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live

11:46 pm - don't freak- but i'm posteing twice in one day!

       ok so even though i was feeling so relieved that i didn't have to go to the museum, and thought that the spiritual warfare inside me wouldn't in fact go on (you know "the it's amzing science but it is really right?") the warfare that would go on once i left the house was unbelievable....

        Read more... )

i know this is really long but if you just went straight to the bottom please pray for strength cause i'm about to blow a gasget, and thats not how i want to share my faith, by demeaning what the everyone else belives....and please pray that i don't bail cause i am literally alone in that class...and actually all of  my classes. everyone has a very eastern way of thinking(zen, the healing power of Qi, you are your own god, etc.) 

thank you so much if you got this far....love you all and good night

12:15 am

i just found out the i don't have to go to that weird, sick museum tomorrow...but instead i just have class from 1-5 then 6-10....yeah...i'm so excited(said in monotone voice) no seriously i was really struggling with going to that "exhibit" i's prayed about it and honestly wasn't sure what to do and apparently, i wasn't supposed to go...
...praise you Father that you spoke so plainly in not letting me go...and last minute....i love you Lord....

that takes away a lot of stress....i SO didn't deserve to be relieved.....i don't deserve anything....but God is SO  good  all the time that.....i can't describe it....he's just amazing....

have i mentioned that i was reading the best novel ever?! well let me tell you--its the greatest novel ever!!! =) i just finished it the other day. it was very twilight zone though...most if not all of the things that happened in the book, happened to me...like a certain situation, or thoughts, she (one of the main characters) was in, or had, was strikingly similar to what had happened to me, or was exactly what i thought in that same moment...and this happened to me either that day or (at least) w/in a week before...like i'm not over exaggerating either... you can ask my mom...she can vouch for me....awesome and amazing but the book started to become less like me when she got married/engaged and obviously that hasn;t happened to me yet so...(yet=hopelly, someday)

i love quiet times.

on a slightly different note:  it's dans bday tomorrow and we decorated his officina....muy funny!!!i love it!!

anyways i am going to spend some "quality time in the word" (both literally and jokingly) teehee i hope you get that...whoever you are...

yo quiero mimi's (i know carlo i'm embarrassing you and probably offending you and your people)

01:23 pm - THE GREATEST BOOK EVER!!!(WELL AFTER THE BIBLE=)
in this part in the book, the Phillips family is sitting around the campfire (at their annual trail ride, picnic, and campfire). this is when everyone (tons of people) gather around the campfire for midnight prayers for the counrty and its leaders..i thought that this was kinda cool, and applied to what Jonathan was talking baout at theSIRENproject...

"Merciful Father[...]forgive us our sin. Open our eyes to the ways we have failed to reflect Your heart or speak Your mindon the innumerable griefs of this fallen world. Our bent to pride and superiority is as terrible as it is unfounded. How often our words and attitudes are those that would never be displayed by Jesus. For give us, Father."

AMEN!!!

this book is so amazing...there are so many things that go on in the book that parrallel my life and the things going on around me...(ie: praying for my ountry and its leaders, whoever they are) i gotta tell you, i really felt convicted to pray the leaders now and the leaders that are going to be...then to read this in the book...AMAZING!! its like 'ok God, i get it know you only had to tell me a thousand times!' teehee

02:05 pm - ok spiritual warfare...
i was just about to post this and the "page could not be displayed"

crazy...fong tze...teehee

don't you love it when you can listen to a song over and over and know all the words and every note, but when you are honestly worshiping God with all of your heart when you sing it, it all of a sudden has new meaning, it's like it's a brand new song that you're hearing for the first time...
...Praise The Lord...PTL...Passion Tea Lemonade...jk teehee

our God is sooo Good ...All the Time...!

01:09 pm - God is good...
my Lord God is so amazing some times (all the time=)) i almost can't believe it. this morning was a tough morning. not only for me but i think the whole fam started out kinda rough today...i got up late and there was confusion this morning which is never encouraging for the rest of the day...got to work and a coworker read something to me that she thoguht was interesting and it was perfect for this morning..."youu look to God when your world is shaking only to realize the He is the one that is shaking it" (something like that) and it was soo cool because i was just thinking about the Rock Cafe tonigh and how awesome thats gonna be and how the morning went not that great and its because satan is trying to ruin our day so that we won't be able to worship God fully with this amazing opportunity. i think that either God shook up our/my day or allowed satan to enter in to realize how good God is in that He will always be there to put us back to nomal (as normal as we could be)and that there are worse things in life than starting off your morning the wrong way...i don't know if this makes any sense at all but thats what i was just thinking about...

...p.s....please come to the Rock Cafe tonight...it'll be a blast!

03:04 pm - from the book "enjoying God"
praise God for this book...i've only read the first 10 pages but it is amazing...i love it...=)

"...Have you ever been in love? when you look into the eyes of the one you love you realizw your priorities have changed. time, cost, distance, and sacrifice have a way of paling when you look at your beloved. lvoe has a way of taking you further than you want to go, making you offer more than you would naturally give, and prompting you to sacrifice the most precious thing you have for the sake of another. it's both powerful and beautiful. and it was intended to be that way before the beginning of time..."

Lord, i want to look at you in this way, before i even think about looking at anyone else like this...AMEN

11:47 am - HOMICIDAL MANIACS ON SCOOTERS
lets just say that the people that decide to drive on the "roads" here in Taiwan are CRAZY!!! we rode in the car to see some of the sights, i'm very thankful that we are sitting here today...Chiken thought the drivers were scary even after living in New York!!!!our destination was an adorable street with shops and restaraunts, we even fond a clean squatty-potty....that is a photo opportunity fo show...found more gifts and things:
-Dan=DONE DONE DONE DONE!!!
-David and Jackie=DONE
-just Jackie=DONE
-Dee=DONE
-J=DONE
-JT=DONE

thats just so far...
DINNER:
we walked to a street vendor and i ordered beef dumplings,Chiken got(are you ready) BEEF and noodles, burn your mouth spicy and it was even too hot for chiken....WHOA NELLY, good but interesting veggies, and Sandy ordered beef and noodles...walked back to church, after stopping at the 7/11 to get cash from Chiken's ATM card but it didn't work so we stopped at a similar place called Family Mart, and after laying hands on the ATM machine, it gave her cash!!!PRAISE GOD!!! we met Claire and Carol, some friends of Sandy, who (PTL) spoke very good English, we will be teaching with them for the next 6 days. we had a nice relaxing evening reading Mary Higgins Clark murder/mystery "We'll meet again". woke up (again) at the butt crack of dawn and couldn't fall asleep...today we didn't even try to sleep more, instead we read some more of her book and compared mosquito bites. (p.s. pray that we don't get malaria or yellow fever=)) we are not yet accustomed to the staring, but at least we were warned that it's not rude. we kinda stand out just a bit...today is our first day teaching English and we are both a little nervous
we love you all and miss you all so much...keep those prayers coming...

-Kristen and Kelly
