From the Inside Out--Hillsong United

So last night I finally finished reading Romans (Yes...I went on without you Jon because you're a slacker). Anyways, it's interesting because there were a lot on my mind and I was fighting with a problem I was having. So before I started reading I prayed that this issue could be resolved and while I was reading Romans, verses began to jump out and impact me. For the first time, I genuinely felt like I was having a conversation with God through the Bible and it was pretty amazing. This also reinforces my goal to continue reading the Bible every day.

Anyways, today we went to the Family Christian Store because my mom had to pick up a gift for some lady at church who's getting baptized on Easter Sunday. While I was there, I found an interesting book called Extreme Answers to Life's Tough Questions and it's a really good book. It basically goes through every issue imaginable (ex: Anger, Repentance, Responsibility, Abortion, Rape, Music, Parents, and even Euthanasia) and presents what the Bible states about common questions regarding these issues. (there are hundreds in the book) Not only does it present how God answers these questions but also gives support through many verses. [: I'm currently in the process of going through the book and have already learned a lot. It's quite enlightening.

Well in other news, I found the cutest J Prom dress. :D It's hot pink and I know that Asians don't usually look good in pink but I don't care because I couldn't pass it up. Spring Break is going well so far...nothing exciting but still a great break from school.

Tribute
This is a tribute to my amazing parents, who often say things that make my day.

Texts

From Dad after I forgot to text/call for a day: "Lost and find connie yuan. Female. 17. Last time found at wei yuan house. Since then, we lost contact"

From Mom: "How are you going today. We miss you. Dad said your group was wired. Connie maybe was kidnapped. You know your dad himself is wired. Mom. [I think she meant "weird" [: This was after my dad dropped me off at camp and saw the mob and was freaked out.]

From Mom after I forgot to text again (oops): "Bad pang pang [fatty--my parents' nickname for me]. You lost again."
