"After my all has been run through
I'll give what's left of me to You
Knowing in time I'll be renewed
And walking again

Teach me to know that I need You
Simply because, Lord I need You
Not cause I'm tired from what I do

So before my all has been run through
I'll give the whole of me to You
Wait for Your will in all I do
And walk in Your strength."



A new focus and a new vision for my remaining time here in Korea. There's a grander purpose in everything, and I need to open my eyes and heart to allow Him to show me.

Cafe Harue waffles are delicious.

Happiness is...

-a light dusting of snow over everything.
-reading The Princess Bride.
-watching 현 play computer games.
-snuggling under a cozy blanket.
-establishing real, God-centered friendships.
-an already peeled tangerine.
-Tim Oh and his 된장찌개-encrusted lips.

2008

I don't know why, but I'm filled with peace and excitement for this upcoming year. No doubt this year will present its fair share of drama and hardship, but rather than be afraid and overthink everything, I'm going to resolve to allow God to take control by depending on Him more.

Though there's been this funk hovering over me since I returned back to Korea, I'm trusting that there is a reason for this, and that in due time, it will all be revealed. In the meantime, I am so thankful for the time I've spent here and the remaining time I have left here... it is seriously only by the grace of God that I was brought out here to Korea and stripped of my familiarities and comforts to rediscover Him on His terms.

So with that, I eagerly anticipate that this year will be particularly different, and in all that may happen in 2008, I pray that I will continue to be obedient to His calling.

Happy New Year! =]
