| Lamentations 3: 19-26
Yeah, it's been a tough year. Okay, it's been tough for a really long time. But holding onto this and hoping for what's to come...
God really is faithful, and looking back, I can definitely say that with confidence.
because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
they are new every morning,
great is your faithfulness.

| Woah, it's over. I'm halfway done with college. It feels kind of weird.
This year has been...interesting. It was messy, confusing, difficult, tiring, painful, uncomfortable...probably one of the hardest years I've ever had to go through, but hey, at least I got through it in one piece. I'm still here.
And I think at the end of the day I can still stay that God has been faithful through it all. I'm such a fickle human being, and I change emotions and decisions every five minutes (people can attest to this). But God remains the same, and I have to remember that His promises never change either.
So may this summer be about reconciliation, reconnection, and redemption. I can reflect back on this year and think of it as a failure, or I can move on and take it for what it's worth, tomorrow is another day. It was tough, no doubt about it, but God is still working and he's not finished yet.

| Actually this isn't totally new, but it's becoming more on my mind as of late.
I just want to be real.
Too bad I don't really know what that means.

| Today I was sitting in Chinese class and suddenly thought about how long it’s been since I talked to any of my Chinese contacts from missions last summer. I felt a tinge of guilt for not being more active in keeping the relationships going and felt kind of sad that I won’t be able to see any of them this summer. And then I checked my e-mail and got this random message out of nowhere: Dear Liu: Hello, my friend! Do you remember me? We met and had a happy conversition about Christianity last summer under a biy tree in Northwest University Xi’an China. My name is yuan liu(劉源) which is very similar to yours(劉豐源). It has been about one year sine we met each other. Is everything goes well? How about your collage life? Sad, but I only remember him because his name was so similar to mine. He didn’t accept after I talked to him but I remembered he was very interested after we talked. Crazy that almost a year later he e-mails me. I wonder where it came from. Talk about seeds being planted last summer. | | |
