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.

God's awesome, wonderful work!

Here is an excerpt from an email that a co-worker has sent to me:   “ What church do you and your wife go to? I have been thinking alot lately about going to church. I have never really attended church and don't know much about the bible. But I have a desire to know. I feel strange just waltzing into a church and being lost.”   How awesome is the work of the Lord! And that we can take part in it! Woah! Alleluja!
Amazing! We came to church today, and Jessica was feeling down. During the sermon, which was about faith, a statement was said by the pastor about not dwelling on the past, nor "what if's". In this statement, God had put on the pastor's heart to say a series of "if we had only..." statements, and one of them was "Do not say, 'if we had only stayed in Texas, things would be different'..." As the pastor said this, Jessica and I looked at each other, as we could relate :) Allow Peace and Love to dwell in you!
