FINALS
this is basically my freak-out reaction to any decision ever in life.
this is me at least once a day.
Yeah, this is how I feel during finals. I must admit.
My father
My father started attending the local Episcopalian church and has come back to the Anglican fold. He took communion and gained membership in the congregation.
It is a step in the right direction. I pray he will truly accept Jesus Christ as his savior and let go of the false beliefs and attachments he holds in his heart.
Lift him up in prayer.
For sure. I actually like the Anglican church a lot. :)
The Church.
I feel like the church is so comfortable with sin, and so uncomfortable with rebuke.
Why do Christians feel comfortable with words that imply sexual jokes, or things degrading to others. Why are Christians okay with praises and curses coming from the same mouth? But then when someone rebukes you for it, you claim that they’re judging you, or have a plank in their own eye? Paul said, Are we not to judge those within the church? He goes on to say those outside the church we aren’t to judge, but the ones inside, it’s A okay (Paraphrase.)
Leonard Ravenhill said he’s baffled and confused when we go around proclaiming we have 70 million Spirit filled believers in America. Why? Well, simply because we’re one of the most disgusting nation on the face of the earth. What happened when 12 people saw the risen Lord? They turned the world upside down for Him.
read & reblog.
everyone, i know this blog is usually me just whining about my views on things and how much my life sucks or whatever, but i want to be serious for just a minute. i want to use this blog as a tool to get word out there, in whatever way i can. so i’m going to ask all of my followers to read and reblog this. it isn’t that much to ask.
seeing as the holidays are coming up, i think i might start somewhat of an awareness theme for this blog on sundays. christmas/hanukkah/other holidays are soon, and after a recent conversation, i’ve really started thinking. we are all really lucky people, whether we want to admit it or not. the fact that you’re sitting here reading this means you have a computer or some kind of internet. a lot of people don’t.
there are people who have no home, no family, and no one to share their holiday with. they live outside, in the freezing cold, snow, and ice. because they have nowhere to stay. homeless shelters only house so many people and feed so many people. there’s never enough room for everyone. i’m asking you to imagine yourself for five minutes living on the streets on christmas instead of sitting in your warm family room opening presents. it’s not a happy thought, is it? no one deserves that. no matter what they’ve done in their lives.
so. for every reblog that this post gets, i will donate a bag of food to local homeless shelters in my area. for every “like” that it gets, i will donate $1.00 to a local charity or soup kitchen. let’s see what you tumblrers can do.
Reblog if you follow Jesus.

Of course I will. Every single person deserves rights. And I wouldn’t take away somebody’s rights for lying or cussing or any other sin. People who dehumanize others are truly only dehumanizing themselves.
People aren’t born homosexual. So the question that is being begged is a non-sequitur. I’m not trying to push a Christian fundamentalist agenda by any means, but geneticist and physicist who was in charge of the human genome project, Francis Collins noted this. There is not aby any means evidence that states people are born homosexual.
For my new followers.
First off, I am a Christian. This tumblr is not so you guys think I am this hip kid who really “gets it”. This is for God’s glory. So I blog about my faith a whole lot. If you don’t like that, unfollow me. It may be annoying if you don’t believe what I believe and I understand.
For the most part, I just try to share whatever is nice and good and righteous on this tumblr when it comes to videos, music, pictures, etc. I like to share what is beautiful in this world.
So yeah. My name is Hye Sung. I am sixteen years old. I am a nice boy, or I try to be. Sufjan Stevens is my hero. The banjo is my favorite instrument. I like theology and I dive into reading for hours. I struggle with arrogance and anger issues… but Christ loves me nonetheless.
What are your interests in theology? Who are your favorite writers? Into philosophy and apologetics?
the furious longing of God
“I have two choices. I can escape below into skepticism and intellectualism, hanging on for dear life. Or, with radical amazement, I can stay on deck and boldly stand in surrendered faith to the truth of my belovedness, caught up in the reckless raging fury that they call the love of God. And learn to pray.”
