I was at a dear friends funeral today. A 24 year young David died last Thursday. As I remember him, I know that God has taught thousands of people through David.

Some lessons I learned from him are:
  • He had some physical limitations / "disabilities", but he did not pay attention to them, nor did he let them stop him from what he wanted to do.
  • He took part in a vast number of activities, like Spartan Christian Fellowship, Crave Youth Group, Asian Club, among others.
  • He worshiped the Lord with his whole heart, without caring about how he sounded or looked.
  • He smiled, and his eyes opened wide, when he saw those whom he knew; and he hugged them strong. I could see that he loved them.
I want to take these lessons to heart.

On a similar note, when we came back from the funeral, I realized that our dog Nuka was always happy and joyous when she saw us after a few hours of being away from home, or in the mornings. I want to be like this with those I love.

Today

Today David my brother in law who is visiting us for the summer, found a ticket on the train to Chicago. Soon after we arrived and left the train, a man came up asking for help in buying a ticket for the train. David had one! Praise God that this you g man now had this ticket, as God provides opportnities like this to impact the world in a positive way. Mom Reyes, my mom in law, told me a story about a homeless veteran who died outside in the winter months in Alexandria. She said that he was offered help and was off the streets for six months, but after that time he was back homeless. Mom said that the man, Jimmy, may have had trouble with his mind. He may have had trouble keeping a job in his state of mind. That's tragic.

Today at work, I was searching for a solution to a project, regarding calculating of shipping to Canada with Google Checkout, and was browsing in FireFox, with some search results open in a window. I was then about to open up an Internet Explorer window, which had some examples to resolve the issue at hand, though in XML code, which was different than what I use at work, but felt in my hear not to open that window, but to continue searching in FireFox. After continuing to search in FireFox, the next search result I opened included an example to Canada with the code which I use. Weeeeoeoeoeooewoowowowowowowoow owwoowowowo. Obedience to the Lord is woowowowowoowowoeooeooeooewoowo eowoowoeoowowwwowowowo awesome.

Higher Calling: Your purpose

1 Peter 2:9-12 Luke 2:49-50 Jesus understood His purpose at a young age, because He knew who He was. What you do flows out of your identity. The "I must" purpose ... 1) It will determine where you go 2) It will determine who you hang out with 3) It will determine what you say 4) It will determine how you spend your time 5) It will determine how you spend your money
