Believe within
Today I felt overwhelmed
But I will trust in God's promise.
Jer 29:11-14 (The Message)
This is God's Word on the subject: "As soon as Babylon's seventy years are up and not a day before, I'll show up and take care of you as I promised and bring you back home. I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
"When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I'll listen.
"When you come looking for me, you'll find me.
"Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I'll make sure you won't be disappointed." God's Decree. "I'll turn things around for you. I'll bring you back from all the countries into which I drove you"—God's Decree—"bring you home to the place from which I sent you off into exile. You can count on it.

Happy Night
I had such a fabulous time with Steve tonight. :) He will be very happy to read this - more than knowing that he is my best friend, it's him who has set me into action, to write an entry tonight.
Sometimes, things done in an impromptu manner bring about amazing results. We hadn't really intended to meet... I was already home, and then, yeah, we decided to go to Ajisen. It's been about 2 plus or 3 years since I last went to Ajisen. In our earlier years, we frequented Ajisen and it was a dating dinner place for us, so tonight, somehow, it was special. And enjoy the ramen we did.
What I want to say is that a relationship - a meaningful, deep relationship - is treasure. To find someone who understands you, can communicate with you, gives you the assurance and confidence... the list goes on... this is truly a blessing. Tonight we just talked. If you ask me what I talked about, actually I can't really recall now, ahha, but we just talked and fellowshipped. Thank you my dear. :)
And another highlight of the night - had a long chat with Maki over the phone and she shared with me about her trip back to Japan, the church there and the Holy Spirit. I really enjoyed the conversation with her, and we prayed together. I'm so looking forward to going to the mission trip in May. I know it will be a life-changing experience, and I pray that I can continue to be a blessing to the Japanese.
It's almost 1am... and tomorrow is Friday. Have to wake up early to work, but somehow I am wide awake. Could it be the mocha after the ramen? :) Steve and I went to Starbucks after Ajisen, and had a MO JIA. I am thankful that it's Fri, and weekend is coming, cos for certain, I'm looking forward to CG and service.
Suddenly I think that life is so beautiful.:) In the cool of the night, as I type this and reflect on my bed, I thank God for all He has shown me and blessed me with. I know 2011 will be a blast year!!
