Sunday Dec. 9th:
IT SNOWEDD!!!!!
Went to a different church with Soo today. It was one that is near Marushoku. At 1st it was frustrating because it was in korean and i could not understand.. plus the translation was very strange to me... but things got better later. The older ladies (obasans) were very kind!!!!! Very Very kind :)! After lunch we had bible study, of which ... I am skeptical of the pastors interpretation... but.. hmm.. i dont know... somthing to think about... it was the topic of our journey and the path that God has for us. He said that there is no "right" or "wrong" path, since the Holy Spirit is with us. But i know that there are times where it is not ok ... and if you go against the Spirit's voice you begin to not hear anymore because you tune him out... If other voices become louder than letting the soft quiet voice of the Spirit, then we tend to turn and run into and do things that hurt us, and are consequential later. These i do not believe is the will of God, since he wants what is best for us. He is with us where ever we go i do belive! I know also that dispite what we do, he is still with us, but our choices can hurt us because we are like sheep right... so sometimes when we go somewhere that looks good to us, or rush into things... it is like falling off a ledge or getting sick from eating raw meat... it is because we do not know what is best. That is why we grow and learn to hear God's voice... right?... still pondering
