Love in action

Look at the nations and watch -- and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told. Habakkuk 1:5

Change is coming

According to a new report from the Justice Department, over 80% of reported human trafficking is related to forced prostitution. Around 40% of them involve the sexual exploitation of children.

There is an increase of awareness in the states. Craigslist got rid of their erotic service section, legislations are changing, people are figuring out how to notice underground brothels, and more.

‘Because of the oppression of the weak and the groaning of the needy, I will now arise,’ says the Lord. ‘I will protect them from those who malign them.’ “

I’ve been attending New Philly for 15 months now.  I was watching a breakdance video in Jeju Island during an outreach and in the middle of the video, God spoke and said, “Leave your church and go to New Philadelphia Church”.  I was currently on salary with another church in Daejeon but knew I had to give that up for the sake of obedience.  After returning from outreach I went to my pastor and shared what I had heard and found out that many of the leaders of that church were transitioning to new things and new staff were coming in.  It was a total God set up and I was released with a blessing.   I started attending New Philly in Dec 2009.  What I began to receive from the church was so much greater than a salary.  My life was being enriched with great teachings, worship and relationships.  The worship times were amazing but it’s evolved significantly in the short time I’ve been with the church.  I’m seeing much more freedom and joy during our times of worship these days.  Today once again, worship was (HOT) 뜨거워!  As we sang the oldie, “Did you feel the mountains tremble”, the level of freedom during worship seemed to have reached a new level as greater numbers of people were shouting, dancing and leaping without a care in the world.  Just a bunch of kids lovesick for Daddy.  It’s hard to describe how I feel during worship.  But its greater than any drug or any other form of pleasure this world has to offer.  If only the world knew how good He is.  아빠! 사랑해!

Is it right?

Chris asks me after every problem, “Is it right?” And almost every time, the answer, “yup, perfect!” Sometimes he takes a moment to take in the truth. And sometimes he even gives a little nod of approval. ..cutie. But most times he squints up at me, “are you sure?”

Maybe he doesn’t believe himself? Maybe he doesn’t believe me?

About the third week, Chris asks “Is this right?” “You’re always right. Chris, remember I told you you’re a genius!” “No I’m not.” he mumbles sheepishly. “yeah you are. You calling me a liar! You sheki!” “but I don’t want to get it wrong.” “I know, I don’t want you to get it wrong either. Don’t worry, Chris. If it’s wrong, I’ll make sure we go over it again and make it right.” “alright..”

He still asks, “Is it right?” Not too often. But it’s fine, I like him. …hope he likes me too.

“There’s a time to read history, and a time to make history.” - David Batstone of ‘Not For Sale’

Prophecy

The impossibility of knowing the right does not escape the reality of having to act. And because what you do is a display of what you believe to be morally right, either you will choose or the choice will be made for you. Yes, the restlessness of reason is forever.

We, however, have Papa who knows all, and need only to ask.

Hope I’ll never have to take any sort of philosophy class.
