Well went to this restaurant with my family. Interesting pricing. We went for my grandmother's birthday. It was very cheap for what you got.






Good food and a good price. Gotta love it.

Ryohei

So I need to make up for the lack of posting.

Recently the Lord has really blessed me and that is with my cousin Ryohei deciding to become a follower of Christ.




I just got off of work so my hair is really crazy. But this is me and Ryohei. We were at some park in Urasoe.

But last week Ryohei decided to become a follower of Christ. He has been coming to the Church which has been a blessing to have him come. Please pray for him and the rest of my unsaved family.

Hmmmm

Hmmm well maybe I will actually start blogging again.

Recently I have gotten a job. It pays well but I am very very busy now. But good news is is that I am still able to do ministry in the Church. I have now started leading worship at the Church. It's been a blessing to be able to still serve the Lord.

So I am going to be using my phone to blog more often. So we shall see how this all works out. I am actually able to post pictures now but I don't think I will for this post.

A New Post!

So I have no idea what to post about right now...

School is over, and its the break... I wish I had a camera, blogging would be much easier haha.

Just went to Tonaki Jima and we were able to share with Izuru and have some fellowship with him. That was a blessing.

So also tomorrow we are supposed to have a nice typhoon coming. So will tune you in with more.

Let's see, what else... Things are rather uneventful right now. I am working on a newsletter to start actually sending out. It will be different from my blog as the focus of the newsletter will be different. I am going to do my best to make it monthly, but there are no promises.

So what God has speaking to me recently.

On Tonaki I was reading through Titus, and this was really on my heart.

an elder must be without fault; he must have only one wife, and his children must be believers and not have the reputation of being wild or disobedient. For since a church leader is in charge of God's work, he should be without fault. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered, or a drunkard or violent or greedy for money. He must be hospitable and love what is good. He must be self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. He must hold firmly to the message which can be trusted and which agrees with the doctrine. In this way he will be able to encourage others with the true teaching and also to show the error of those who are opposed to it.
(Titus 1:6-9)

I was reading this and it reminded me... This is what God wants from me. I want to be serving God in the ministry. I want to oversee His work in the Church. Other translations don't say a Church Leader, but say a steward of God. But I want to be a steward of what God gives me, and I want to be a good steward. This is what God asks of me.

I need to be prepared to fulfill these qualifications. I don't believe I am a drunkard, arrogant, quick-tempered, violent, or greedy for money. But I don't think I can say I am faultless. I still have many things that someone could say are faults. God is wanting me to work on those areas and to be disciplined.

This will be my standard, this is my point of aim. With God's help I know I can be these things, otherwise He would not ask these things of me. So my prayer is that I can be qualified for the services God has for me. I want to be able to say, my life is modeled after this.

Been a bit...

Its been a bit since I last updated this. I became way too busy to make any worthwhile posts. I apologize for my lack of time and efforts, but it was a necessary sacrifice.

So since my last post things have been very interesting. Finals week came around and I had some good finals to do and study for.

We also had a worship conference that was a huge blessing. It was a blessing to listen to the pastors teaching on the subject of worshiping in hard times. I was very blessed by what they had to say.

Then came the sad week... Everyone was leaving... My best friend left... Sadness... But she will be back :P

I really need more time to write on all this. But everyone was truly a blessing this semester... And it was fun to have everyone here...

I promise I will get around to writing something more thorough and in depth but I have one last final to get done... So until then...
