Word of the day: Hustle
Since the last October, my soul has been stuck in hustle more than ever. How do I know? I had all the three signs of hustle hostage like Emily described--indecision, distraction, and lack of inspiration. I am a person who feels safe and sound when my inner world is organized and calm. Reading and writing helps me sift my flying thoughts, and sharing my thoughts by articulating them clearly helps me move on to the next step. But I simply didn't have enough energy to sit still. Well, nope. To be honest, choosing to sit still, discern my true motives under God's light, redirect my perspective, organize my thoughts, articulate my inner world clearly, and share it with the world takes time and energy; and I didn't want to do it. So I refused to sit still with the excuse, 'I deserve to take some rest'. And the cycle went on with the burden accumulating. What I am learning for surer from this season is that this is not a life-giving choice for me. I admit that choosing to give the excuse is a decision I made by being pushed by fear. And the result? Hustle has taken over me.
So I pray Emily's prayer this time.
Father, remind us that our souls aren’t made for hurry, but to find their rest in You. Teach us the sound of Your voice so that we can move to the unforced rhythms of grace. Reveal to us our own assignment and empower us to do our own thing well. Give us the courage to define our own margins, to be people with a strong no and a thoughtful yes. Slow us down in Your presence. Slow me down in Your presence.
Amen.

My word of the day is 'dowside'.
I'am tend to see the downside of everything happened in my life and I think that reason is I am quiet realistic person, not idealistic.
However through this episode, I can look back my character not based on my thoughts and knowledges but Emily's inspiration.
Then I can admit I was afraid of the burden of hustle and being overwelmed so I wanted to conrtol my feelings and thoughts by haveing negative perspective.
Emily asks 'what do you know for sure?'
Right. What I know for sure is nothing about this world.
Only the thing I can hold for sure is God knows everything and He loves me.
As we live our daily lives, we can learn that true for sure.
God gently displines by letting us live our lives and make decisions from trivial to important things,
Now I need not be afraid no maater what hardship we face because nothing can seperate from God's love and salvation.
God leads and teaches us His trustworthy love. So He permits us time and space in this temporary world and He molds our character into the image of God, which is like Jesus.
Because He calls us His childeran and He is our father.
God always hepls me track what I am learning and look back my life by His spirit who is in me.
Thank you God, my eternal good Father.

*Today's word is the “finish line”
I once wondered what made me the most angry. As I was raising two children in confusion and depression, I asked myself so many questions and answered myself what kind of person I was. When will I be angry with the children? I got angry when I was in a hurry by myself when I didn't have enough time. I controlled the children and found myself in despair and anger when I failed each time.
What finish line did I go to, and what was it that I met at the end? I don't know the last finish line of my life, but only the Lord knows! There is no great finale prepared, but I hope only the Lord knows and applauds me. Strangely, even if all the finish lines, which are the criteria for my perfect future, are gone, I think it is a happy goal wherever God becomes my running mate.
I have become lazy to find peace while writing, but I am surprised and happy to record my inspiration thanks to the ‘giving table’. Interestingly, today's article reminded me of who I run with, not the finish line itself. Through counseling, I came up with experiences of healing in my mind, prayers that I put down with pleas, and writing habits that I wrote.

My word for today is grounding
The idea of recording what i've learned seems really good way to be aware of myself .
I'm in my gray season also. It is season of apathy and helplessness. I'm fighting with symptoms of getting old. Physically, emotionally, intellectually I feel that I'm not like what I'm used to be. I find subtle changes in me a bit dull and not very vibrant.
In general I try to keep myself cool. ;-)
listening to sermons and reading a good book draws my thought back to the hope and faith and get me started again.
Recording what I've learned will give me motivations to keep my self awake and continue my life of learning.
It will be rewarding to check out that I have learned something and not wasted my time. It will be a good grounding work for me too even if it is
not a big thing and just a trivial thing.
I should really start recording what i've learned.

My word for today is 'inspired'
A race that doesnt have a finish line! I was so surprised to hear this part that I stopped for a while and listened to it again.
Where am I seeking my inspirations from? To which direction am I going?
Why did I start learning Coaching? What was all these educations and trainings about?
This was something lingering in my mind for a quite a long time and just last month me and my two daughters decided to move to a rural school in Jeon Nam province through program led by Ministry of Education.
These two questions really hit hard. Not just for me but also for both of my kids. What are they learning in school from 9 to 14?
What do I know for sure?
What did I learn ?
We earnestly needed a transition period. My daughter wanted a time in nature and also with animals. I wanted a whole changeover in my surroundings and this was just the right time. When considering our circumstances, it only made sense to believe God had put us in this new changeover. I am thrilled to be in this new inspirational journey.
Writing and recording of this experience would be inevitable and I have to admit, Emily's suggestion of three month span review sounded very appealing.
Keep in track. Write and keep a record. Keep a list of what i am learning and this will become Anchor for the soul.
Record joys and disappointments. Movies, what kids said...etc. Keep it as a reminder!
