...about Saturday...

ah…last Koinonia Coffeehouse ever :( ‘twas a long/hot day…worth every second of it! *sniff* it was so amazing :) there were so many new people who showed up and who were helping as well! ‘twas so refreshing to see so many youngins helping out! man i feel old.
food was hype! (disappeared quite rapidly as well :P) the decorations were amazing ;) testimonies were amazing ;) drama was amazing. worship was amazing. the redeemer skit!! it was seriously the best that i’ve seen it of all the times you guys have ever performed it…honestly dudes…you all did an awesome job :) i’m gonna miss Coffeehouses! :T

i've come the the realizationt that:

1) i could never be a lawyer…i get way too emotional when i argue..hahaha what's new :P
2) i love having a brother for many reasons…but one of the many is because he’s good to argue w/. but i hate how he always argues so well against me but in the end still agrees w/ me and just does that for the sake of arguing. bah!
3) it is way easier to argue in favour of the same-sex marriage bill (w/o God in the picture :P)...but at the end of the day…i have to trust and know and cling to what is true, and that’s it :)

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.”

-Philippians 4:8

some Nee for y’all:

(this excerpt was definitely one of the highlights of the book. he writes so redundantly but for a reason :) and i love how he clarifies everything previously stated, to just make so much sense in the end)

God is waiting for a settlement of all our controversies with him…Our complete surrender of ourselves to the Lord generally hinges upon some one particular thing, and God waits for that one thing. He must have it, for he must have our all. I was greatly impressed by something a great national leader wrote in his autobiography: “I want nothing for myself; I want everything for my country.” If a man can be willing that his country should have everything and he himself nothing, cannot we say to our God: “Lord, I want nothing for myself; I want all for Thee. I will what Thou willest, and I want to have nothing outside Thy will.” Not until we take the place of a servant can he take his place as Lord. He is not calling us to devote ourselves to his cause: he is asking us to yield ourselves unconditionally to his will. Are you prepared for that?”
