After Van Gogh, life has seemed normal and empty. Hehehe... no, I just felt like saying that to be melodramatic! ;P Actually things are going well. We have mostly just hung out with friends near or around home. We've been out with Jini and Sup a couple more times and Matt and Amber have graced us with their presence to keep us company. We even had a board game marathon in which Amber totally walloped the lot of us at "Taj Mahal".
We've tried to see more of Korea, really we have. The past two weekends in a row we were all set up and ready to see the Suwon Fortress. It's supposed to be a nice walk outdoors. We were rained out the first time and it's currently raining right now so we'll see if it holds up tomorrow.
Last weekend we went to church for the second time. The regular pastor was preaching instead of the youth pastor so it was good to know what that would be like on Sundays to come. Being that it was Easter Sunday, I expected a whole lot more ceremony. In fact, the pastor was in the middle of a series on salvation. I know it kind of fits with Easter, but doesn't Easter deserve it's own sermon? The pastor also talked about the "inner man". He referred to this part of all people that is their spirit essentially. It bothered me that he talked about it with a gender. I don't know what it is lately, but the more I attend church the more questions I have about my beliefs. I feel like all of my studying and past experiences is contrary to what some churches are teaching. Is it possible? Can a faith be so divided? I love God, I'm not the most diligent at disciplines - but I genuinely love God and want to follow Jesus example in our world. Is that not the call of Christians? I'm not sure whether I'm calling for help or just venting... bear with me on this one. It actually got to the point where I had to ask myself if I believe the same thing as the people around me. I'm tempted to say no, but does that mean that I deny my faith then? Always more questions than answers.
This blog is very quirky and jumbled. I hope it reminds you all of my and my quirky jumbled nature. :) Take care and I will update with more photos soon!
