Hyun and I had such a nice weekend together celebrating her birthday =) We went to the city for a great brunch at Morton's and then hung out in beautiful Sydney for a bit ... exploring the city like we used to do when we first came here (almost 5 years ago?!?!). Then for dinner we ate at Circular Quay and got to enjoy the Opera House and Harbour Bridge at night. And the day was filled with a lot of nice surprises along the way ... I think it was God's way of wishing Hyun a happy birthday too =)
And for our Sunday service we went back to Oxford City Church [the announcement-driven-church ... because they LOVE their announcemnts!]. They had a guest speaker from the US today who was excellent. He preached on how we were created to love people ... to love our community that is broken and how to restore that community, we need vulnerability towards one another, with Christ-like acceptance.
These were all themes that God's been reinforcing in my life these past few months as well ... I think it was God's way of reminding me of His presence in my life right at that moment. And we ended Sunday night with a nice family dinner [with EJ, EY and their mom]. All in all, a great weekend ... in His presence. Here are some pix below of our weekend [doesn't Hyun have a great smile?] =)
