Shepherd

Dad's shower of blessing...introducing Jethro, which means a shepherd, a priest. A priest job is first minister to Him. So yayyyy, i wanna minister to His heart coz He's just so awesome! He told me I am to pick up and stand up. He's given me the authority and He wants me to rise up....
DAD's beauty compels me to sing! :)

Heroes

Everyone has a hero. Heroes stay in your heart because they shine a light when your world is so dark.
Heroes inspire you when there seems to be no other things seem to go right.

When i was a kid, not knowing what to do, no parents around, my grandpa's sister (the one on the bottom left), took me in.
She took care of me when no one else could. I was a helpless 2.5-year-old girl. She helped me be the 1st in class. She paid for everything i wanted as a kid. She'd wake up very early in the morning to prepare for chicken puffs that she was selling to pay for my school and everything i need. She took care of me until i was 9 years old.

After that my grandma, dad's mom (one on the top), took me in. She was taking care of my elder brother when i was in the hand of my other grandma. Now she handled both. This grandma was the one to discipline my brother and I into going to church. We didn't really know what it meant to go to church but we know we had to, else, she'd spank us.

Anyway, throughout my journey, if I look back, I could see how much my grandmas have played important parts in showing me bits of God in them.

I am thankful to have them in my life.
They taught me how to live for God

Sakura Trip

I went on a trip to the land of the rising sun on March 7-17.
And a major triplet disaster took place on March 11, yet by the grace of DAD, the team and i made it out safely.
So, here's a summary on what i was doing during the trip.

Be blessed,

something about dogs

I just watched a movie that really helped me.
Whatever it is, a dog really knows how to love its master.
What they do best seems to be knowing their master and to love their masters.
If a dog is loved and given a home to stay, it'll see the master's life as theirs.
It'll know what it means to be part of the family and that it'll know its role in it.
It'll protect the family members.

I reflect upon my own life.
I reflect upon my relationship with Dad.
i feel so much loved by Him and that He widely opens His arms to welcome me.
I wonder if i have showed him my loyalty.

One line that struck me from the movie:
"a dog doesn't need a car, doesn't need fancy clothes; all they know is if you give 'em your heart, they'll give you theirs"

Do i know how to give my heart to my master, in this case, my Dad...

Thank you for reminding me about this Dad..
Thank you for reminding me who i am...

If a dog knows its master, i should be better coz i'm not a dog..

L.O.V.E

is just a four-letter word.

but...

It is so hard to understand to what extend we ought to show love. It's not as easy as putting the 4 letters into a word.
As i was processing this, i was led to:

"Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behavior from their parents. Mostly what God does is love you. Keep company with him and learn a life of love. Observe how Christ loved us. His love was not cautious but extravagant. He didn't love in order to get something from us but to give everything of himself to us. Love like that."
Ephesians 5:1-2

"times like these is hard to see but somehow i have a peace you're near..
and i pray that you will use my life in whatever way your name is glorified
even if surrendering means leaving everything behind

and my life has never been this clear
now i know the reason why i'm here
you'll never know why you're alive until you know what you would die for

And i know i don't have much to give
but i promise you i'll give you all there is
can i possibly do less when through your own death i live"
