Weekly Devotion: Psalms 135; Proverbs 11

Praise the LORD's Wonderful Works. Vanity of Idols

"Praise the LORD! Praise the name of the LORD; Praise Him, O servants of the LORD, You stand in the house of the LORD, In the courts of the house of our God! Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; Sing praises to Him name, for it is lovely. For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for His own possession. For I know that the LORD is great And that our Lord is above all gods. Whatever the LORD pleases, He does, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps. He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who makes lightnings for the rain, Who brings forth the wind from His treasuries. He smote the firstborn of Egypt, Both of man and beast. He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh and all his servants. He smote the firstborn of Egypt, Both of man and beast. He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh and all his servants. He smote many nations and slew mighty kings. Sihon, king of the Amorites, And Og, king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan; And He gave their land as a heritage, A heritage to Israel His people. Your name, O LORD, is everlasting, Your remembrance, O LORD, throughout all generations. For the LORD will judge His people And will have compassion on His servants. The idols of the nations are but silver and gold, The work of man's hands. They have mouths, but they do not speak; They have eyes, but they do not hear, Nor is there any breath at all in their mouths. Those who make them will be like them, Yes, everyone who trusts in them. O house of Israel, bless the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless the LORD; O house of Levi, bless the LORD; You who revere the LORD, bless the LORD. Blessed be the LORD from Zion, Who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!"

I started my commitment to read Bible since December 25, and it has been about 80 days now that I read the Bible everyday. It was a hard and tough journey. I never had a habit of reading Bible until now, and now, I feel weird when I do not read Bible everyday. It has been truly my heavenly father walking with me during the time. Without him, I would have not gained perseverance to overcome my weaknesses. There has been number of times that I was lazy enough to give up. I have to give a lots of thanks to him. Not only reading Bible everyday, but I also found a habit of keeping record of my day. Every single day, I wrote something about the day, and I cannot wait to read all those stories once I get back to college.

[Travel NewYorkCity] Day 4

Hi :) last meal before leaving New York 갈비탕 (galbi soup) in Korea Town heading to New York Public Library guy juggling New York Public Library back entrance front entrance I started reading this book since the travel. Though I did not finish reading the whole book, it brought me more fun during the travel since the setting in the book takes place in New York. I think I should do this more (taking books that are related to the place I travel).

Korean Idioms Questions

1)  This old idiom is used when someone acts in the way that makes the situation even worse. 나쁜 일이 있는데 또 나쁜 일이 겹쳐서 아주 지리리 불운한 상황을 뜻합니다. What is this idiom in both Korean and English? Hint: It originated from the fables of Phaedrus in the first century. He gives a story about how a bald man  who tries to swat a fly but instead hits his head.

(Answer either in  Korean or English).

Weekly Devotion: Romans 8:38-39; Exodus 33:14; 1 John 1:7,9

Romans 8:38-39, "For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Exodus 33:14, "My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest." 1 John 1:7,9, "But if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." The word for today: do not be deceived by Satan. Do not worry. Depending on emotion with Lord is sometimes dangerous, but (you) remember the Bible verses about God's love and forgiveness. And he will always forgive you no matter what. Do not be a fool like me to write such things below. Remember that Satan...
