intimacy
simply means to be BEST friends (BFFL).
& I say let’s all be BFFLs :) if only it was that simple.
always failing.
learning to walk with Him everyday, in holiness.
but it’s always easier said than done, and easier shown than lived.
i fail everyday, but His grace is abundant.
as long as i’m in His mercy, i will learn to fail everyday.
because its better to fail, than to not fail at all.

these days I wake up every morning with the same uncertain anticipation I go to sleep with every night…
You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

RSLE Part 1
Finally just watched Transformers 3. An awesome movie (.)
When the ending song started to play, repeatedly, the only word coming to my attention was “desperation.”
So I tried to relate the song to the movie, (because the OCD character in me thinks that it the songs should always tie in with the show)…
but instead led me to think of our own personal state that would be...

Time after time
deborahkwak:
Nehemiah 9:28 “But as soon as they were at rest, they again did what was evil in your sight. Then you abandoned them to the hand of their enemies so that they ruled over them. And when they cried out to you again, you heard from heaven, and in your compassion you delivered them time after time.

Matthew 23: 1-12
12 ” for those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.
I wonder if I had been all talk or if any of my actions may have been enough to justify my belief in whom I am found to be through Christ.
There is no doubt that I struggle everyday in trying to center my life around Jesus Christ, to be more honest in truly following...

deborahkwak:
One Sunday about 20 years ago, back in our days in the YWCA, I said something impromptu while receiving new members in the church that has stuck with us ever since. People were standing in a row across the front before me, and as I spoke, the Holy Spirit seemed to prompt me to add, “And now, I…

testimony for epic about china mission
[Sunday 8/21: gave a testimony with Nate about our experience in China] originally I intended to read straight out from my saved drafts on tumblr, because everything seemed to make so much more sense in writing… but I realized that I couldn’t multi-task, to read and to up to the crowd in between… and the holy spirit just took over. I don’t remember everything I said up...

We live in such a comfortable lifestyle that we don’t want to get out of. ”Why would anyone think about leaving this comfortable life, and go to places where people are suffering? Those jobs are for the missionaries, we’re called to do something else, to gain influence in the eyes of the world so…
family history book
today was a very chill day… having to stay home all day away from the sun as much as possible… I felt like an alien and my face looked and felt like I’ve been sunburned… (no pain, no gain). the night is so much nicer to my skin. [sorry but I’m not going to explain what I’m talking about, but I still wanted to vent out the slight pain I went through today..]
So...

thinking kills... maybe not
Yes literally, I’ve been having a very tough time lately of just thinking about a lot of dumb discouraging thoughts. They are so dumb that I just shake them off right after, but only after sulking in myself.
So I’ve been thinking about my situation… -yes, more thinking and I know this is ridiculous… that I’m being ridiculous- and I’ve concluded that...

I’ve nothing to feel “bad” in any unfortunate situations,...
– Works been tough lately.. But still hanging in there. I’ve gotten an opportunity to really reflect on myself, trying to convince myself to be grateful for being to work in itself. And I think I succeeded, I realized a lot of good change in character after coming into this work place. They...
reason
Today God taught me to be thankful for my family. Not that I have never been thankful for them, I would have to say that there are times I become burdened by their presence in my life. Nevertheless I still love them… most times. I can be honest about this because my thoughts have changed since today. If it was not for my parents and my little brother, I do not think that I would have...

home
I need to break them but before I can, I should grow stronger in Him. They have to break and only God can, So I’ve decided to let go entirely… finally. I don’t think I’ve felt any better. We’re all going to be home soon.
until then… just gotta believe, wait, and have faith.
lunch break
Psalms 34:1-3 (NIV) I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. My soul will boast in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together!
What a wonderful verse God has led me to today. Tomorrow will be my last day of fasting and I just wanted to thank the girls who has been and still is praying for me...
bad habit
so talk about inconsistency…
I failed at completing the 31 days, but I can’t help to take away some blame off myself, and complain it was beacuse tumblr was down for a day or two… let’s just forgive all and start fresh. Jesus’s birthday just passed and the new year is coming in just 5 more days!
I’ll be back more often now, to make up for the lost 22days or...
Day 4
The last place I went to for a holiday is… *drum rolls*
Cerritos Library garden!! … so sad. no? but had a good time shooting. Vic & I went for Thansgiving day, She had already come down for thanksgiving weekend and we both had nothing to do except shoot shoot shoot.
The weather was chilly but it felt good and I think I got some decent shots, all well worth it.

Day 3
I realized that we do not have a decent picture of the three of us. guess what that means~ ;) we need some time shooting a decent picture together. <3
We’re so adorable. We are all that. ;)
These girls are my breath of air and joy in life.
Day 2: the meaning behind my tumblr name.
Christmas is nearing!! 23 more days! This was taken last winter, a night out with my favorites from high school. thanks for the lovely picture Randy. :)
So… the meaning behind my tumblr name?
Beside’s the clear and obvious meaning that this blog is about the world I live in, the extra meaning I added after I had made this tumblr, is that it means literally “it is...

PORTO'S >> yumminess
I’ve finally had the chance to go to Porto’s that opened in Downey. & the waiting in line part was definitely worth it. I got the usual cheese bread, potato ball, and fruit tart, along with their Cubano sandwich. I think it was one of the best deli sandwich I’ve ever had… (I would never really opt for a deli sandwich, but this was Porto’s). It may...
LTG (Letter to God) #1
I see nothing but a blur of an image… but Lord what do you see? I want to see what you see.
if there was one factor in my life that I would not mind it being removed completely, it would be… would I live my live righteous and holy then?
Dear Daddy (up there),

origin of names.
Dara \d(a)- ra\ is pronounced DAR-ah. It is of Hebrew origin, and the meaning of Dara is “nugget of wisdom”. Biblical: the name of a descendant of Judah noted for his wisdom. Also, Dara and Darra are Gaelic names meaning “oak tree”.
wow. I’m a “nugget of wisdom.” aha sounds adorable~ no?
not too sure about being an “oak tree”...
