reminders i carry…

I wear my watch, and two wristbands daily.  It has become who i am and reminds me of who i am.  

1. Watch: obtained in Hong Kong.  Brought for my birthday/Christmas present this past year. always.  Its light, stylish and serves its purpose.  Reminds me that my parents are always looking out for me.

2. Light blue wristband:  obtained in China mission trip in 2008.  Hope.  That word has stuck with me ever since then. At that time, I remember how appropriate it was when the kids gave it to me on the last day we taught there.  I hope that they would come to know Christ, hope that they will find that calling they are meant to have.  But i didnt realize that it would have an important meaning to me.  Hope for a better tomorrow.  Hope for the best.  Hope so that others have hope.  Reminds me of have much fun and what an experience it was at China.  It reminds me what my life is made for..missions.

3. yellow/blue wristband: obtained at UCLA.  This one really stood out to me as a reminder, i am a servant and i am made to serve.  At UCLA i was really taught to serve selflessly even more than i have before.  There are patients, co-workers, doctors that i can work my hardest to serve them.  I am serving them because God allows me to.  I want that to show as an extension of God’s love in service.  And people have notice the difference and they ask me why.  I am a servant, i am made to serve my God.
