in all things

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." - Romans 8:28

I look inward God this time, i am really reflecting upon this mission trip decision. I've always been so selfish, so self-centered. But this time i look inside, and i know that i am not going to the ST mission trip for myself, it's all for U, God. but my parents still think that i am too spoiled,and the mission trip will add a burden to them, and that i am just too selfish to realize that.

I don't wanna see what queen's looks like, i don't wanna see how beautiful it is.. how serene the town is.. b/c i know that it is too expensive. I chose u of t instead, although i don't like downtown,
but it would be much easier on my parents. God, this sinner is looking inside, and although i would love to please my parents, and to wipe away the wrinkles on ur foreheads, but i know that it is Ur will for me to go to this mission trip. enough said: It's all for You.
God, U placed these trials in front of me, so that i can truly reflect upon the reason that I am going. Without my parent's disagreement, I can only know the reason for ST mission as a head knowledge, but when obstacle comes, I had to look inward and come to the end of myself and realize that these obstacles are only placed in my life to reflect Ur glory, Ur perfect Will.
Pray that you would lift the burdens on my parents' shoulder. Pray that Your Will be done.
I come to understand that in many ways pains and problems are just another way of reflecting Your unfailing love. Without them, I am prolly still worshiping myself, or marks, or many other things
that i placed above U.
Thank You =)
