Not too many people read this, but if you do, you have seen I have went through different name changes for this blog. [If you don't normally read this and you read this, I have grown up a lot in my faith and some of the posts I've written in the past years is not complete biblical truth so don't read them..] It was lovingabba, and I tried to make it something biblical and cool. The problem is is that everything is taken. One thing that is definitely not taken is my name, Myung Sue. If you don't know me then well you obviously didn't know that my first name is Myung, but I go by my middle name Sue. It's less ethnic and easy. But more recently I've been embracing my first name Myung, and my friends love calling me that. What's really fun is to say Myung Sue Kang all at once in a crazy accent of your choice.
Tonight was a really sweet night with the Lord. I went to dorm ministry bible study tonight, and hearing what God is doing on campus is so powerful, I can't even explain it. He is pointing people to salvation through some ordinary college kids. But these aren't ordinary college kids. The body of Christ here at Auburn has amazed me everyday!
School is basically almost over for me, I am two exams and a pizza party away from being a sophomore in college. WEIRD... But basically a huge part of my testimony for my freshman year experience at Auburn is experiencing the fullness of God through community and true biblical fellowship. Sounds like it should be on a brochure or something, but I'm being completely for real and serious. By the grace of God, I've been surrounded by Christians who are completely after Christ's heart. They don't just claim to know Christ and bring a few rando friends to church on Sunday, but these guys are taking it to the next level.
The body that I've been surrounded with has the love of Christ just oozing out of them like I've never seen. They love Christ so they do the things that the Bible says that seem just strange and unordinary. But Christians aren't called to be ordinary, and Jesus has chosen us to be set apart from the world (John 15:19). It's a classic Auburn thing to be not doing what the Bible says, but living it. What I've learned a lot of and still continue to be reminded of is that, it's not about doing all these things that Jesus told us to do in a checklist, but to pursue Jesus and seek Jesus and ultimately follow him in order that we might live our life according to truth and everything else will fall into place. Because these people are pursuing Jesus so much, they are witnessing to so many people each day, and not only that but serving in such a humble way that it can only point to the cross. I've met some great people in this world and some "altruistic" people, but this is incredible. [On a side note, I don't think anyone is truly altruistic except God and a minority amount of Christians. Every single human does something to receive something for their actions.]
Joe talked about keeping a prayer journal. Then Zach talked about how God has answered, 700 prayers in 2 months. George Mueller had like 50,000+. How amazing. Really amazing. Not like "this froyo is amazing" but like God is powerful and faithful amazing. So I want to be posting and just praising God for his answered prayers whether he said yes or no and just giving him the glory! He does so much in our lives, and we just gotta embrace as much of it as we are able to!
Our soul waits for the Lord;
he is our help and our shield.
For our heart is glad in him,
because we trust in his holy name.
Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us,
even as we hope in you.
{Psalm 33:20-22}
