(random thoughts) 1) I find that there's something amazingly theraputic about playing basketball. I suppose this extends to most physical activities in general. After playing basketball tonite until my legs started cramping, I feel nice. A handful of kids from inner-city Dallas are on a tour of America, I beleive this is part of Sebastian Huyhn's ministry to reach out to kids. So we ate pizza together and hooped, and I think they're gonna be on their way up to California. 2) Went with cousins Michael, Andy and brother Daniel to an internet cafe to play some Warcraft 3 for a couple of hours. We got beat by the computer twice and won once. That game is pretty hard. 3) I find that having a definite set of goals in life helps tremendously. It gives a purpose to daily life - and man that's so good to have. 4) Spending time in the Bible, I'm rediscovering the beauty of some of God's truths. - If God has justified me, who can condemn me? - God will never leave me nor forsake me. - God will use all things for my good. - The weapons of our warfare are powerful and effective for tearing down strongholds of evil in our lives. - If God didn't spare his only son for me, how much more then is he willing to give to his own? - The joy of the Lord is my strength. 5) Spending time around friends is really nice. 6) Being around other Christians can be so refreshing - like water to the soul. God really provides the right people at the right time. 7) Although I often forget to do so, today on the way to work, I prayed for help for a critical problem that had been assigned to me. I made no headway the day before. After praying, the problem was resolved within an hour of being at work this morning - the answer practically revealed itself. So thank you God for your faithfulness and for reminding me. 8) I'm a bit scared of tearing my ACL (anterior cruciate ligament - in the knee connecting the fibia and tibula I think). So I've been doing some quad and ham strengthening exercises. 9) Cong is getting married soon! 10) Cousin Ping is getting married soon too!
