Flower of Flowers?

Posted in Uncategorized on September 28, 2008 by Chris_Esther

I visited toowoomba for the first time for the flower festival. It was a lovely small town with 28 parks! Although it was nearly the end of the festival period, still the flowers were awesomely beautiful! It was unreal! I’ve been wanting to join the festival for few years already but never had a chance. This year, although it was right in the middle of the ‘happenings’ going on, i felt like it’s my mission to get myself down there. And, yes it was worth it. It was my own reward for myself kinda thing.

Praise God who created the flowers in so much variety, He must be a pure genius!

Fantastic flowers..

Never seen so many beauiful flowers in one place before!

No, I didn’t buy the skirt. Mom bought it for me.

Pretty brilliant ideas..btw that’s the paper flowers.

There was a live music band, playing some jazz music. It was very refreshing and beautiful day. What else can I say? I am going again next year!

Dreamy Chris awakened

For past 3 months, I wrote 9 articles in korean newspaper. (Sorry for not being able to translate them into english..mainly it’s there for the storage purpose) Today the last articles has been published and I am finishing this culuum now. The money has been transfered into my mom’s account.

..Interesting. Who said, life is like a box of chocolate that you don’t know which flavor you will pick up next. I had a long dream of being a writer, and it came to me like an unexpected chocolate flavor in the box. What’s left are many encouraging emails i’ve received from readers, sum of commission money in mom’s bank account, folder of printed articles, and the memory.

Here and now, I am letting go of the long waited dream.

After the cake

Dear Lord, I have given my best years to you. I didn’t look left or right but walked straightahead. My days on the earth are running out. Let your will be done for your kingdom, as I give the best and the rest to you and you only. ‘Seach me, O Lord, and know my heart. test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.’ (Psalm 139:23-24)

I know it will just get better and better as years go by. He’s done a miracle 29yrs ago and he is still doing that everyday in my life. It is joy to be fading away in the service of my Lord. Help me, that I will never fall away from you for the rest of my life remained, till I see you face to face. But if I fall, may your people keep going and growing even stronger.

with all my heart.

Speak up

The prophecy by pastor John Jacks dawn upon me once again.

“I(God)’m gonna cause there to be a new courage within the depth of your heart. others will look and say “what is that? she’s been so nice up to this point. she seem so gentle and so sweet and now she’s so annoying and scaring us!” but it shall be by the spirit of God that shall come upon you. The anointing of God shall cause you to stand against the enemy and the destructuin he will bring into lives…”

“…What I saw about you is a needle on a compass, and the needle is ultra-sensitive…now God is gonna give you an insight into people’s lives and into sin. and you will confront sin. but you will do it in love, great love. you’re not gonna do this without the oversight of leadership knowing what’s going on. you submit to them but then God’s gonna give you real boldness to confront the sin…”

I didn’t understand most of the prophecies at that point of time. Just lately I saw myself began to fulfill the words of the prophets one by one, including this part. I didn’t ‘try’ to be changed however it began to happen and things are more understandable now. Although I certainly did not want to annoy anyone, or scare anyone.

I am realising it becomes more difficult to get an honest feedbacks and corrections from others. The truth is, people tell leaders less and less truth as leaders goes up higher, as once ps wilson said. To find a truth teller is a great challenge to leaders. People try to impress their leaders more, agree to their leader’s opinion, at times, over the obvious and plain truth.

I want someone who will be so truthful and sincere that it hurts. I don’t want complaisance, I want the truth. Plain truth. And I will promise with all my sincereity that I would do it for you too.
