Last night was awesome with Nick & Brittney. They're twins, one goes to school in Singapore and the other goes to school in Minnesota. Crazy athletes at Hockey & Ice Skating. Their parents love them and want them to have a great life.
Nick needs to learn when to be quiet at times, not talking over his mom.

Revelations 4-7
Christ is the ONLY one worthy in heaven or on earth to be in the presence of God & to be judge.

In heaven, I will perfectly worship God day and night. I need to worship God day and night now. I'm not ready to do that right now, but I need to grow & love God enough to worship him with my life. BECAUSE of who He is, not what He can give me or anything.

Lunch at bad Japanese place & walked around Burlingame.
Going to eat dinner with Dad's family friends.

Revelations 1-3
Salvation is based upon Christ's standard, not man's.
Do not tolerate sin in a church. (or anywhere but especially in a church & its elders)

Fight for Christ with a SINCERE & SERIOUS attitude.

My dad,mom,me dropped my sister off at the airport. I won't see her for a long time.
We were there for about an hour & dad called to yell at me for not telling him how long it would take.
Dad was very mad, but did teach me a lesson.
At the same time, he was very un-Christlike & made me cry...I thought he should be more sensitive to the way I am. (This sounds so emo)

To apply:
1. Acknowledge my own emotional attachment to my parents and recognize that I need to be that attached to God & accept his rebuke.
2. Be sensitive to future wife & kids...know their DEMEANOR and how they respond, change accordingly.
3. Know my weakness in holding back my tears...I cried out of frustration, not sadness. Let those close to me know this.


1 John 3-5 (End)
Love in ACTION, not words.
Pray according to God's will.
