Saturdee with Po

-
09:00 A.M.  - Left eye opened.
10:00 A.M.  - Right eye opened. Rolled to the right side. Right foot hanging. Thump! Up and awake. Turned to the left. Sighed. "Po~ wake up! We need to go out soon." 
10:05 A.M.  - "Po, let's go."
10:10 A.M.  - "Po, come on. Let's go."
10:15 A.M.  - "Po, hurry up. Let's go."
10:20 A.M.  - "Hey, let's go."
10:25 A.M.  - "Po..." Po rolled her eyes and said, "Can you say something different?"
10:30 A.M.  - Left the apartment.
10:37 A.M.  - 

Stuck in downtown traffic!

11:00 A.M  - Ugh! Couldn't find a parking spot to go to the Farmer's Market, so left for Botanical Garden instead. 

Bluebonnets

12:00 P.M.   - Yum! Lunch! My fave slice of pizza is Pizza Margherita! 

Margherita slice on the left

 01:00 P.M.  - We were melting under the Texas' sun after lunch, so we decided to cross the street and get the super refreshing Iced B.B. from a local coffee shop.


Espresso shots, hazelnut flavor, milk, and some not-sure-what deliciousness.

02:00 P.M.  - "Po, let's get some herb plants before spring is over." Yay, 2 for $5. 

Italian Parsley & Sweet Basil

03:00 P.M.  - So that was the half-Saturdee I spent with Po. Btw, I'm thinking to try out making spaghetti aglio e olio, using my own parsley. Hmm, one of these days...

"Po, this is totally you chillax-ing!!!"

Crossing The River Jordan

"And the priests who carried the Ark of the Covenant of Jehovah stood firmly on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel was crossing over on dry ground, until all the nation had completely crossed over the Jordan." (Joshua 3:17) I attended a virtual crystallization-study of the Books of Joshua, Judges, and Ruth. Like always the in-depth trainings held by Living Stream Ministry have been landmarks in my Christian life, prompting me to come to the Lord Himself to dwell on the revelations unfolded in these sessions of spoken messages. I take them as messages spoken from the Lord Himself. This time I was struck by the record of the children of Israel crossing over the River Jordan to enter into the good land. The parting of the Red Sea is quite famous, where the children of Israel exited the world (Egypt) and the ruler of the world with his evil forces (Pharaoh and his army) were buried. In our Christian life, the crossing of the Red Sea is a picture of our baptis...

John 8:32 on the UT Tower in Austin, Texas About Christians on Campus For decades, members of Christians on Campus have endeavored to focus on Christ and Christ alone. In-depth Bible study, building up spiritual companions, and mutual fellowship in the homes are some among many highlights that characterize the club activities with Christians on Campus.  My Experience with the Club I'm not a paid marketer. I'm just a living testimony of how Christians on Campus has changed my human and spiritual life. I don't even know how to begin thanking the Lord for His mercy and sovereignty in placing me where I need to be, so that I can grow. This series of blog posts on Christians on Campus is just my personal testimony and experience as a young Christian in college, nothing more, nothing less. So let me begin here.  Christians on Campus was the reason I went to UT Austin. After I graduated from high school, I had to go abroad for college (I'm from ...

Summer 2012 Puerto Rico Blending Trip: The People

-
Image
Please read my previous post to find out more about the island of Puerto Rico . Without a doubt, Puerto Rico has it all:  nature and culture . Yet what I enjoyed the most was meeting Christians, young and old, and having a rich fellowship with them (despite the language barrier that we had since I don't really speak Spanish). I also met a lot of college students who were affiliated with Christians on Campus. Their endeavor to reach the young people on campus, to bring the gospel to them, to fellowship, and to dive into the Word of God was too precious!  From Puerto Rico with Love. I realized that even though we were so far apart geographically, we all, in Texas and in Puerto Rico, had been endeavoring to do the same thing: gaining young people for God . Furthermore, even though we didn't speak the same language and weren't brought up within the same culture, there was always a prevailing atmosphere of love and joy among us. At the end o...

In the Midst of a Pandemic: Anxiety, Assembling, Built Up Together

-

Different lines of thoughts run through my mind during this COVID-19 outbreak. What is truly happening? Is this just the beginning? Anxiety, panic, fear mixed in with some utter ignorance and recklessness. Then the actual pestilence itself swiping through nations. The world is shaken. As a Christian, I know that I have to participate in prayers and caring for those in need. I also acknowledge that God has a specific need in this time, although I am not yet clear what He needs except for the unchanging fact that I must seek Him in prayers and in His word. He also obviously desires to spread the gospel of the kingdom to all the nations. But there's this great torpidity that drags me into a spiritual inertia. I have more idle time in my hands. It makes me restless and anxious wanting to fill my day with other stimulating excitements at this time. I can easily enjoy activities that do not necessitate the presence of many others. (I am an introvert by natural makeup so general soci...
