His Fingerprints - Nov. 25, 2006 Sunday

I can't believe that it is only a month till Christmas. I can't believe I am leaving in two weeks. It seems awfully short.

* It was so much fun to see the casting and shooting of the Christmas pageant. :-)

* How wonderful it was to share the 4SL with AL and to witness her praying to accept Jesus into her heart. God is GOOD, ALL the time!

* My trip was announced. I was encouraged by people who came to talk with me. At the same time, I was overly concerned about the financial aspect of things. Dear LORD, help me trust in you FULLY. And YOU alone!

* I was so grieved that I lost my patience with my parents during the course of the conversation. I could not explain where I felt blocked and stuffed so often by my parents. Is it smothering? Anyhow I was quite irritated by the comment on my voice (Should I be always overly excited to satisfy my parents?) and the inquiry regarding the trip (I guess I knew my parents' opinion and felt my boundary was violated). Whatever it is, I should not have raised my voice and got annoyed. My heart was saddened after the conversation. I called back to apologize and once again my mom denied any need for apology stating that it was natural for parents to tolerate. Once again I felt the blocked and stuffed feeling. I was in tears. Dear Lord, please help me.

* I had a thought to have a fast of TV shows and movies from now to my departure. It felt hard, but maybe I should do it. Maybe I should share during the prayer time tomorrow morning and get some accountability from JB.
