Ha-Young, Ye-Young, Eui-Sup, Jung-Won, In-Sook, and Eun-Tae, please pray for us and all those who pray for us.
Many people, when reflecting on their lives, often interpret events through their own reasoning, claiming "God did this for me" or "it was God's will." While this is not entirely wrong, the Bible teaches that before God acts, He speaks to those He has chosen. In John 14:29, Jesus tells His disciples that He speaks to them beforehand so that when events unfold, they may believe. Faith, the Bible also clarifies, is not for everyone—it is something God grants to those He chooses. Ezekiel 36 speaks of God removing our stony hearts and replacing them with a new spirit, enabling us to live according to His commandments. Jesus said that those who love Him and keep His commandments will be loved by Him and He will reveal Himself to them. His commandment is simple: "Love one another."
In conclusion, believing in Him and obeying His commandments depends entirely on God. He speaks to those He loves before things happen, and all blessings come from Him to those who ask.
Pray that God will: "Take our stony hearts, speak directly to us, fulfill His will in our lives, so we may see and believe His promises, and help us to keep His commandments and dwell with Him."

Please pray for Ha-Young, Ye-Young, Eui-Sup, Jung-Won, In-Sook, and Eun-Tae:
1. That the peace of God may come over us.
2. That God would show us great and unsearchable things of which we are unaware.
3. That God accomplishes His true desires while we are still alive, so that He alone may be praised for it.

"the arc of history is long but it bends towards justice," MLK. For prayers of gratitude ... we won a court case "Camoin vs Nelnet at the US Court of Appeals in June ... which under the First Amendment set a new precedent for a more accessible government. And last week the defendant who swindled $MM from taxpayers (on the backs of student loan borrowers) conceded no contest. For all the angels watching over us, thank you!
