I just turned 26 this past Friday. Thanks everyone for all the...

Cards...



E-mails & cakes! (some in the face!! ),





Lunches, dinners... and flowers?!??  (I've never really gotten flowers before... it was kinda weird... I didn't know what to do with them! What's the point?!? I mean they look nice... but they just sit there... )

And especially all the prayers!! I'm not much of a camera man so I don't have pictures of everything. But I was so encouraged and thankful for friends and brothers and sisters in Christ that care so much!

So, it's weird... for the first time in my life I feel "old". I also realized that I've been a Christian for almost 14 years!! I'm definitely not where I thought I would be spiritually... I have such a  l o n g  way to go. But I've been so thankful that God would actually save someone like me... and that He would bring me from NY to U of I so that I could know Him more intimately and be trained at CFC... I remember hating CFC even before I came to campus. Then after being forced to go to 1 or 2  services, I was hooked! He's brought me a long way... and I'm definitely a work in progress... but He's so faithful.  Thank You Lord!

So I took my car into the shop yesterday and they asked me if I needed a ride to work. I said “sure”. So they called into the garage and asked someone to drive me… So I’m expecting someone like this:

 

But NOOOOO… instead this is who came out to DRIVE me home!




What the?!? A little boy drove me home!! I looked him over and he couldn’t have been more than 12 yrs old… definitely didn’t hit puberty yet. So we’re in the car and it’s really awkward… …. Because he’s TWELVE!!! 

I asked some questions to find out more…

Me: So are you in school?!?
Little boy
: No, I’m actually 19. I dropped out of high school.
Me
: (Thinking) “YOU LITTLE LIAR!!”
Me
: Oh really?  What school did you go to?? (And I’m watching him the whole time because he’s DRIVING the SPEED LIMIT!! Who does that?!? 
He was being careful not to get pulled over… the whole time I’m wondering if I’ll get arrested)

So we talked and talked and he dropped me off. I call later that afternoon when my car is done and I talked with the cashier:

Cashier Lady: So Mr. Won, will you be needing a ride?
Me
: Yes, could you please send someone out?
Cashier Lady
: Sure! Jin dropped you off. SHE probably remembers how to get back.
Me
: Oh ok... so... HE’LL be by soon?
Cashier Lady
: Yes, SHE’LL leave now.
Me
: Can you ask HIM to call me when HE gets here??
Cashier Lady
: Oh, SHE doesn’t have a phone so could you just come out in a few minutes?

VVVAAT?!? HE WAS A GIRL!!! So now I can’t wait for HER to come pick me up. I felt all weird when she came and I couldn’t help staring at him/her. I felt bad… but how was I supposed to know!?! She had a boy haircut and was wearing a hat!!

Anyway… Praise Night has been rough… The leaders met Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, tonight and tomorrow night…. Each night has gone until almost 2AM or 4AM. ZIPPO. ZILCH. ZERO. Nothing. No skit. No ideas. Please help!!


**EDIT**
We now have a praise night skit!!! It's the story of the boy who gave 5 loaves and 2 fish (lot of food for one boy eh?). The only potential name for our skit is
"The Little Fat Boy". Probably not gonna fly. Any suggestions?!?

.: 2 0 0 6 :.
.: One Desire :.



God has really been convicting me of this these past few weeks. I've focused so much on fighting my sin and struggling with my heart... which isn't bad, but I've learned (as I've been rebuked) that you cannot grow by merely fighting to overcome sin. There must be an increase in our Spirit's desire to love God and live for Him.


I want Jesus Christ to be my one desire and I'm praying that this will become more true of me in 2006.
As basic as this may sound, it's still been revolutionary in my relationship with God. I can't say enough of how thankful I am for the ways that God has stretched me and rebuked me so far this break. Awesome.

OIL WAS FREAKING INCREDIBLE!!!

We kind of expected the wireless mic to not work so we rushed up on the stage to set up the podium and mic... and everyone started laughing.  It looks like Matt and I are moving and adjusting things... and apparently Tek is giving moral support and is extremely focused on the mic.



I feel like I've been around these guys 24/7 for the past couple of weeks and I can definitely say it's always a privilege to fight along side them and get stretched together. These last 2 retreats have been crazy... no sleep, late night drives back and forth to the middle of nowhere, getting blessed like no other. Let's pray that we would do crazier things for the Lord!

Also some pics from my SG hangout in Chicago...



Lunch @ Joy Yee's

  Then we went to go check out the Museum of Science and Industry...

| I was kinda disappointed with this one...







Fight on CRH10!!

After the holidays my roommate's dad marinated some kalbi for us to eat... so Jim went all out and made this spread of food to go with it. Needless to say I was thoroughly impressed with his skills. I don't know too many guys that can cook like this... dang boy. Do it! He's still single ladies...




And I don't know why I thought this next thing was so funny... but I had to post it... (what a diverse xanga post huh?!? From blessings to Chuck Norris.)

Some Chuck Norris Facts: (Stolen from Angell's xanga)

1. Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.
2. Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.
3. To prove it isn't that big of a deal to beat cancer. Chuck Norris smoked 15 cartons of cigarettes a day for 2 years and acquired 7 different kinds of cancer only to rid them from his body by flexing for 30 minutes. Beat that, Lance Armstrong.
4. Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are trademarked names for his left and right legs.
5. The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.
6. If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death.
7. Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing.
8. Chuck Norris built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Chuck met all three bullets with his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement.
9. Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.
10. When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.
11. A blind man once stepped on Chuck Norris' shoe. Chuck replied, "Don't you know who I am? I'm Chuck Norris!" The mere mention of his name cured this man blindness. Sadly the first, last, and only thing this man ever saw, was a fatal roundhouse delivered by Chuck Norris.
12. Chuck Norris counted to infinity - twice.
13. When Chuck Norris sends in his taxes, he sends blank forms and includes only a picture of himself, crouched and ready to attack. Chuck Norris has not had to pay taxes ever.
14. According to Einstein's theory of relativity, Chuck Norris can actually roundhouse kick you yesterday.
15. A Handicap parking sign does not signify that this spot is for handicapped people. It is actually in fact a warning, that the spot belongs to Chuck Norris and that you will be handicapped if you park there.
16 .The quickest way to a man's heart is with Chuck Norris's fist.
17. They say that lightning never strikes the same place twice. Niether does Chuck Norris. He doesn't have to.
18. Chuck Norris doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.
19. When Chuck Norris was driving he saw a sign that said, "Caution: Small Children Playing." So he slowed down, but then it occurred to him: Chuck Norris isn't afraid of small children.
20. If you ask Chuck Norris what time it is, he always says, "Two seconds till." After you ask, "Two seconds to what?" he roundhouse kicks you in the face.
21. Chuck Norris frequently donates blood to the Red Cross. Just never his own.
