What a difference a couple years makes! The last time I shared at Evangelical Chinese Bible Church (ECBC) Dorothy Tanaka was the one there supporting me and I didn’t know if I was ever going to get married, and where I was going to work. It was amazing to go back this year with my husband, and as a clinic owner!
It’s crazy how my husband is / made happen all the random things I wished for!
I remember going to Dora Ho and Timothy Chu‘s wedding thinking it was so cool how they had their scout crew as their honour guard, but that I could never have that at my wedding since I’m not a scout leader ;p (Thanks Fox and Felix for being our honour guard!
). I wanted a man who would pursue me, but my personality didn’t really allow for that, because I’m so straight up – when I’m interested, it’s pretty obvious
but I was honestly turned off by Stu’s lack of profile picture on ChristianMingle – which he didn’t have because he was involved in The Number One most attractive thing to me – teaching in high schools. He teaching about social media – telling kids to be careful what they put on the internet because you can’t erase your cyber footprint ;p Thank God Pastor Emily Lim ran Danny Lee Silk‘s Define The Relationship Class and gave us the homework of going on a couple dates, so I actually paid for a Christian Mingle Membership, and could finally read the messages he had sent me to explain that. And that he happened to send me another smile a couple days before we were going to report on our homework, so I actually looked at his messages and was highly motivated to go on a date with him asap (so I could be the star of class)
Thank you Jesus for being So Faithful and True to Your Word!!! It’s crazy how two of my Sexual Integrity Teacher friends (Jessica Littlehigh and Catherine Thomas) and I met our husbands / fiance within 2 weeks of each other. Actually I thought of them right away when I met Stu, thinking if it didn’t work out with me I could introduce him to them My friends are so awesome, it would have been easy for me to be insecure, because I could totally see how he might prefer them over me, but it just so happens Stu has a thing for Hong Kong Chinese girls – and I fully understand that because I have a thing for white guys ;p I also had a thing for Claddagh rings because I used to love Buffy The Vampire Slayer– so it’s particularly sweet to me that He’s Irish! ![]()
God really does give us the desires of our heart as we delight in Him! I’m constantly shocked and amazed by His Goodness and the Reality of His Work in my Life! All this and more is too much for coincidence!!!
It was great too how He orchestrated that night – putting it on Wesley Liu and Jonathan Liu‘s hearts to share about Job (a great lead in to discussing Job 1:8 and 31:1-12) and to see how much they and others like Patrick Zhu have grown since the last time I was there – passionately leading worship and prayer!
Great Job Philip Yee, Joyce Yee, Michael Hovater, John Ku, Rachel Lowe and all the others who’ve poured into this Epic group!
The nights I have been able to spend with you have been a privilege and blessing!
