Come Home Running

What happened to our blog :( haha.

I just wanted to tell you all how blessed my last two days were. Dang freaking blew me away, seriously. On wednesday, i went UCSD! woop! anyway, i went because the india teams 2k6, 2k7, 2k8 and 2k9 from SD were meeting all up, so i hopped on a train and went. during the time of fellowship we had at cafe india, all the sd people in our team and i tried nan (soo good!), chai tea and curry. other than the food, the experiences people like sheldon and leo shared were hilarious! "uncle, more beads...uncle!" haha oh gosh. it was funnnnny. anyway, i was blessed to have such an awesome time in fellowship with my brothers and sister (eugenia) haha. after, i stayed up till 2 am helping RAKSTAR with his art project. it was a really good time just sharing our testimonies and other stuff. On thursday, i went to UCLA kcm with albert. praise was awesome but what was more awesome was the sermon by pastor richard. i learned that so many times we do "works" to get acceptance from others around us, but God being the creator of this whole world, a thing we do is nothing compared to his greatness. yet, he still shines down on us and accepts us. another thing that was soo convicting was when pastor richard asked... after you do this sin like cuss someone out or other deeper sins, can you, five minutes later, praise God or read the bible or pray? and my response was heck no. haha but later he revealed that, no matter what we do, God will always take us in. he made an analogy that God is like the prodigal son's father. God waits for us to come back home running to him. from this sermon, i was just so blessed, praise God.



i hope all of you guys are doing well, india team! sunday is almost near and UCLA cafe night is tomorrow!! i will see most of you guys there :) have a great day and dont forget to pray for our team, our leader--pastor john, the missionaries in india, the lost, and etc. love you all :)
