Who am I? What do I do?
A quiet time with Tim.
John: 1:19-28. I was doing my quiet time today on this passage and was looking at John the Baptist. He never failed to give his testimony. He was the voice that calls out in the desert, prepared the hearts of people and pointed to Christ. This is who he was, what he did, and his calling. So the question I asked myself, who am I and what do I do? Honestly, this is a tough question to answer. Yeah, I’m Tim Hsieh, but what does that say? Nothing. To me, it’s not the name that’s important but what that person does that describes who they are. Who you are and what you do are inter-related and connected to each other and even your calling. As I was thinking about it, I felt that maybe part of my calling was to teach people to follow Jesus. Maybe. But definately food for thought. Application: contempt on who am I and who am I to be?

Congrats Bush on you presidency. May God continue to use you for another 4 years. Time to get praying. It’s alot easier to wake up while your sleeping on the floor compared to your bed. Thanks Ollie for that tip, it works. The quality of small group does not necessarily reflect your spiritual walk. Your small group can be doing great b/c of God and not you, or you can be doing great but people’s hearts are just hard. I’m thoroughly unprepared for my exam on Friday, time to study. I won three games of Settlers this weekend, all time high. It’s all about the sound track for Praise Night skits. Skits with better sound tracks usually come out better as shown by the ‘More Than This’ skit. I hate Illinois weather, it keeps changing. Make up your mind! I don’t want to wear shorts the next day and my winter jacket the next. Housing started, I need a roommate (or two) for next year. Any takers? I love History Books, I’m in Joshua right now, about to finish it. Alright, enough brain dump, time to fill it up!
