Hi Folks...today's date is August 20, 1997 and I came back last Saturday from my high school church retreat. But why did I go to the High School retreat you ask? Well it's because I went up as a counselor. I never knew that being a counselor would be so tough. But with God's grace and mercy, he helped me realize my weaknesses and put me back on track. You know I just realized today that I really haven't put a lot of focus on God in my web pages. I'll tell you why...
Lately I've felt that God hasn't really been there for me. What I mean is that whenever I pray or do anything "OF GOD" i just really feel like I'm talking to a wall. I'm sure many of you people can relate to what I'm talking about. What I like in a "relationship" though is communication, and if I talk to someone who just doesn't talk back to me...you know I have many other things to do. This even refers to some {eeehem} supposed friends that I know. Well back to my point...I realized at my retreat that my sins are really separating me from talking with GOD. I prayed earnestly for forgiveness of any sins I could remember...but does GOD forgive the sins that have been forgotten by man...yet haven't been forgivven? NE WAYI really want to seek GOD but I'm going to college and I'll have to find a church...and I know that things are going to happen. Oh...and during last week, as one of my teachers were praying for me, he saw a vision of a clock with its hands moving really quickly. Then after a short time the hands stopped and in the middle was an X. My teacher...CHARLES{who just came back from Kenya and had this cool lookin beard but shaved it} well he asked me if I was waiting for something...and I told him that I really couldn't wait to go to school. Then he said that The time I wait for college to come will go by real quick. Then a time will come whenthings will stop...and I would come to stop and meet X--Christ i believe.
Through this retreat God has really reavealed a lot of things to me. I could tell you some stories about how this guy named John Moon was manifesting and how the Holy Spirit actually made the lights blow out. Man... I was relly blown away. Now I bet you're thinkin that I'm some wierdo saying strange things. But I'm really skeptical about these things and I still wonder why these things happen....I guess you could say that I think like a Presbeterian. But you know what...these things happen and are very real. Why do you think witchcraft is real and polterguist stories ever came to life...because there are things arounds us that we can't see but are there. I'm still struggling though.
The Harvest Crusade is a big meeting of more than 100,000 people a year at the Aneheim Stadium. It usually starts on a Thursday and ends on Sunday. I went last Sunday the 17th and saw Crystal lewis and the Kry perform. I thought it was perty cool and I even brought home some of the stadium grass =D. Let's see, what else happened? Oh, Greg Lawry is the pastor and gave a sermon about souls. What would we be without our souls? The body lasts just a few years and the soul lasts an eternity. They also had an interview of some people at Santa Monica beach and some people said they would sell there sould for a million daollars. One other guy was questioned if he had a soul...and he said that he "came from Detroit...of course I have soul." I believe that this world is just so confused and that this world will turn more and more to the world rather than to GOD.
Well for those of you who forgot...it was my birthday last August 16, 1979. Does anyoone care? After this birthday, I now truly understand the meaning of GIFTS. Gifts? what are they? I still haven't gotten anything.....but I gues it's not the gifst that really matter......BUT IT"S THE MONEY!!!! HA HA HA ..j/k no ...My birthday was ok except for the traditional belly slap at retreat...these church guys always plan the retreats on my birthday!!....and an occasional hug or two from the girls and a beating from all the guys.
I've usually found birthdays to be depressing because I'm just not around people that I can talk to....All I want is a little attention..........and a girlriend..hehehehe...that's my b-day wish.......BUT I"M NOT DESPERATE....I'm hoping that a relationship will just come up in college.
For those of you who know my Prom date Bow Ryum...well she's going off to Korea forever...=C She was going to UC Irvine...but due to financial difficulies and family stuff...she's gonna have to find refuge with her family in Korea. She's leaving sometime August 27th.
On August 24th I'm thinking of going to the Junior High retreat and being a counselor...this time I'm going to pray and be prepared and not make all the mistakes I made at my HS retreat.....Oh did I mention that I got 1st place as a group.....I guess GOD really was there for me!
August 30th...this is probably going to be the last day that I work at Benetton....so hurry up ladies and ask me for a discount...cuz times a runnin out.
September 11-14....I'm thinkin about going to CANADA to visit my Uncle's family...they live in Vancouver and I'm hoping I can check out the fishing over tere.
