Lunar Birthday

Wheee Today was my Lunar Calendar Birthday! And filled with wonderfulness from the Lord! Despite the fact that I spent the entire day at school!

We also had our info session today for LYN. It went pretty well, and I am happy to meet our new members! I find that we are more effective in getting to know our members more now and actually making friends with them! AND we had a lot of food, which is always a good thing!

Another good thing is that I am really enjoying my KIN 375 class! (even though I have to miss Weds cell group because of it :( ) Today we learned about embryology and watched a 42min video about fetal development inside the mother's womb. It was so fasinating and I am so amazed that at 3months, pretty much our heart and all our vital organs and functions are already made, and yet the fetus is only like an inch big! That video made me really excited as they kept talking about the development as time goes up until birth.
I started to think about God, and how He has created and designed us so wonderfully. A Bible verse popped into my mind:
"For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb."
-Psalm 139:13

Despite the fact that we grow at rapid rates inside our mother's womb, God is the one who formed everything, and knows how everything is. I bet He is really excited with every cell that divides and with every motion that we start to make while we were inside our mother's womb! I started to understand the infinite and personal attention and joy God has on us more, its really amazing!

Yes, these days I have been meditating and captured by the infinite-ness of God, and yet He has personal love, care and joy for us in the most detailed way! Think about it, He knows every star, every cell, every electron, every thought, the position of every molecule right at this moment. The more I learn about science the more I am facinated by God's infinite-ness(wow I dont even know if thats a word, but I'll just keep using it). But how precious, that with this infinite-ness He loves us infinitely, detailedly and personally. Think about it, He takes all of this infinite-ness and puts it into everything related to us! We are so special and precious to Him! I feel so settled because He knows absolutely everything about me and everything that concerns me or anything that will come in contact with me. Worrying about anything seems so silly when I know this reality!

And a gift from the Lord today....when I looked out the window while walking to the info session, I saw that it was really foggy. I had a conversation with the Lord and just told Him, hey, maybe it will be cold enough to snow?? But then during our info session sunlight came shinning through the windows and I forgot about that.
THEN! When I finished my last class, and I walked outside....IT WAS SNOWING!! Like pretty heavily! The Lord sure has personal love towards me, and its always gently outpoured towards me like the snow!

PLUS when I came home and checked the mail, I got my paycheck from a 3hr job of setting up posters at SFU, which in reality only took 2hrs-that means I got paid 3hrs for working 2hrs haha. So yay, now I have some money for my birthday!

Ok, now I really got to sleep! Woo I got really excited while typing this post, hopefully I'll be able to sleep!

OH and P.S.!! LYNC is featured on SFU ENGAGE BLOG! Yay for Love Your Neighbour!!
