Hey God,
So lately, I've been meditating quite a bit.
It's so frustrating knowing that I'm such a sinful person. It disgusts me.
Sometimes, I just... hate myself, Lord. But knowing that You created me perfectly the way You wanted me to be, makes me love myself.
Lord, I praise Thee for brothers and sisters in Christ. As a body of Christ, we should laugh together, cry together, and comfort one another.
Lord, I praise Thee for Your creation. Everything part of nature, was creatively crafted to show how much You're worth. Even the the mountains and tall trees bow before you, and the ocean roar in Your prescence.
Lord, You are truly amazing beyond understanding.
I pray that I'll live a life pleasing to You. Not only through actions, but through my faith, through my every thought, Lord, may they all be pleasing to You.
You are a God that does not tolerate sin, yet You love me, and I thank You for it.
I want to worship You, my God.
"Take my life and let it be, consecrated Lord to Thee"
I want to live my life just for You!
God, I know I'm super far from perfect, but I will try my best to live out a life pleasing to You!
Again, let not only my actions be pleasing to You, but my thoughts as well.

8.9 Magnitude Earthquake in Japan
I assume that quite a bit of people know about the earthquake (And after-shocks) that had/are happening.
It really breaks my heart to hear about this. A nation that I love so much, a nation that I've been longing to reach, yet so many of the unreached either died or are suffering some traumatizing things.
Yet some people choose to ignore it, like they chose to ignore other earthquakes that had happened.
When will I go out? I don't know, but I know that God will provide an opportunity to serve these people.
God is a God that provides. God is good. He will provide comfort and shelter for the needy.

Simple JOY #3
"To be thankful for life's simplest gifts"
I guess this entry would sorta be a random one.
Well, not really. Interestingly enough, during Sunday School, we discussed about the difference between happiness and Joy.
Happiness, coming from the root word "Happening", means to feel "content" after something happens but the feeling of being content doesn't necessarily last.
While, for Joy, it's an eternal thing, nothing really has to "happen"
Lately, I've been thinking quite a bit about life; How I'm so thankful for it.
I'm so thankful that God saved me from making a terrible mistake.
And I guess, after all life is a mystery, life is unfair, life is filled with people that hate me, but in the end, I'm still super happy that I'm still alive today...
Life is beautiful, and I thank God for giving me life.
