YOU DESERVE

As I consider who You are
How You deliver and heal my scars
You’re the forgiver of my wrong
You’re the source of my song

I will lift up Your Name
From my heart I will say
That You are worthy of the glory
And the reason for my praise

I will worship my king
You deserve this offering
From the depths of my soul
I want this life to let you know
That you deserve
(Glory and honor)
You deserve
(Wisdom and power)
You deserve
(Belongs to You forever)
That’s what You deserve

My refuge in the storm
You give direction bring me home
You come to my rescue when I’m lost
And because of who You are

I will lift up Your Name
From my heart I will say
That You are worthy of the glory
And the reason for my praise

When I think of who You are
And what You’ve done
In spite of me
I just have to say
(I have to say)
I wanna say
(I wanna say)

Give Me Faith - Elevation Worship

Thought I heard this song for the first time a few days ago, but realized that jaychoi showed me a year before. I guess God showed me again since I needed it. #Hisperfecttiming :)

I may be weak. Your Spirit’s strong in me.
My flesh may fail. My God You never will.

Rant

I was suppose to stay at home for a month, but because of certain circumstances, I’ve ended up spending only a week at home. I’m thankful for all the time and experiences I’ve shared with my family and friends this week, but I can’t help but feel uneasy? sure i’m going to have to miss out on all the things my family&friends planned, but the thing that’s bothering me is that i know that as college progresses, it’s going to be harder to keep in touch with my friends back home. 

asdfsajfjk i wish i could articulate my feelings. it’s feel like i’m growing up too fast. reality has slapped in the face and it’s forcing me to make a decision between the community here at home and at Berkeley. i want to have both, but is that realisitc? idk. i’m too drained to think about it. whatever it is, i know that God’s will is going to be done, and that this summer is going to be a transitional period in my life. time to man up and stop being a baby.

Thank You God for being steadfast and for having a perfect plan for me. Help me to trust in You and trust in that whatever You have for me is the best for me. That’s all I can depend on right now.


i love you guys and i’m gonna miss every single one of you, especially my logos family. “The most beautiful discovery true friends can make is that they can grow separately without growing apart” i’ll see you when i see you.

"My feelings are not God. God is God. My feelings do not define truth. God’s word defines truth. My feelings are echoes and responses to what my mind perceives. And sometimes - many times - my feelings are out of sync with the truth. When that happens - and it happens every day in some measure - I try not to bend the truth to justify my imperfect feelings, but rather, I plead with God: Purify my perceptions of your truth and transform my feelings so that they are in sync with the truth."

Life through Instagram p.TWO. 3.11.12

After AP Art, came home + baked the bread for mini eclairs for the Mother’s Day Dinner, tanned + read and did.. Absolutely nothing :’) Thennnn to church where we fellowshipped while decorating the room, cooking dinna (pasta, bread, strawberry+almond+poppyseed salad, mini eclairs with strawberries+mint+vanilla cream) and served the moms while we ate dinner together :) We had 3572350981 leftover strawberries so Irene had the best idea ever and we made ANOTHER strawberry salad with melted nutella + powdered sugar + almonds + sprinkles.. So good wtf… We spent an hour and a half or so making the individual flower bouquets we make every year to pass out on Sunday and Jay Choi is.. The slowest.. Cutter.. Ever.. HAHAH idk why but even when we’re working on the most boring projects I get so happy at Logos :’) So thankful and sososooso excitedddd for the summer together~ 

nobody knows this (except john cause he noticed i was either mad or sleepy HAHA) but i went to church that night more pissed than anyone could ever know but as soon as i got there, everything and everybody made me happier… nothing cheers me up faster than a night with logos.. i love these guys more than anything <3 + the food we make… LOL

Taken for granted?

Sometimes i feel like people forget that im human too. I also experience emotions, stress, and hardships, but i try to choose peace and joy (from Christ) over those things. It’s hard and it’s not like I have a supernatural ability to do it. I guess i’m “too” nice and because of that, people take it for granted the things I do and don’t appreciate it as much because it seems normal. whatevers.


Jesus Christ is the most under-appreciated person and His actions are always taken-for-granted, so I shouldn’t complain. I guess this is what it means to pick up my cross… to truly die to myself and to regard others better than myself. While at the same time, i should expect nothing back, not even a thankyou or anything. Because if I do, my heart is in the wrong place and, inevitably, i’ll burn out or be disappointed.


Thank you Jesus for what You did on the cross. Help me to never take you for granted. 

EDIT** 
Hebrew 6:10 “For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name in serving the saints, as you still do”

Thank you taryn so much for this verse. My audience is God and not people. I receive all the affirmation, appreciation, and approval i’ll ever need from God :)

Seriously blessed with such awesome brothers & sisters in Christ. Thank you God for teaching me this lesson.. you’re only preparing me to pour into the incoming freshmen class and whoever it is that you send me. yaaaaay God you’re so exciting haha

Beauty of Your Sunrise - Sam Pulcano

I see the beauty of Your sunrise
I see hope with every ray
For joy comes in the morning
And mercies everyday

For I know I can trust in Your unfailing love
Yes I know I can trust in Your unfailing love 

In every season You’ll be the God who never fails
You’re the God who never fails
You are and You’ll be the God who never fails
You’re the God who never fails me

There’s no depth You cannot fathom
No chain You cannot break
Your death has paid my ransom
And Your life, it gives me faith

Faith to know I can trust in Your unfailing love
For I know I can trust in Your unfailing love

Come what may, my song will always be
In valleys and mountain peaks
My God never fails
And when it seems that all my hope is lost
I will not fear because my God never fails
