Christlikeness Begins and Ends with Humility


First entry in forever! yayyyy. Something I wrote to my servant team regarding humility

Humility is a tricky thing. It's an attribute unlike anything else in
this world. You can never proclaim it, nor can you ever achieve it
through works. The minute you proclaim your humility, you've
ultimately nullified your statement because the statement in itself is
not a true reflection of humility. No one in this world could ever
proclaim that they are humble, because once they do, they've just
become prideful. Instead, it's a change of heart and attitude. It's
looking at the reflection of Christ and His 33 years of perfect
humility to the Father in this prideful and sinful world, and being
utterly amazed that we can never in our greatest efforts or strength,
be as humble as our great Lord Jesus. Reflecting on Christ's life and
His humility, is humbling in it of itself. So let us not beat up
ourselves to obtain this humility. But rather, let us rely on the
Spirit daily to conform us more and more to the likeliness of Christ,
let us daily examine intently to the life of Christ, and let us look
to God and understand that "He mocks proud mockers gives grace to
humble." (Proverbs 3:34) No other religion seeks to achieve humility,
but our God is the most humble King of all. He is the GREAT I AM, the
King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, Alpha and Omega, Beginning and End
but He humbled Himself to become like man and became obedient to
death, even death on a cross.

Christlikeness begins and ends with humility!!

Reflect on the wonders of the cross of Christ! Humility truly is a
natural ORGANIC response to the close examination of Christ's
obedience and our sinfulness and how God imputed onto us Christ's
perfect obedience and righteousness!

Even as I write this, I can't help but sense the pride of it all. How
humble our Father truly is that He would use someone as prideful as
me. Crazy! Just wanted to encourage you guys with that. Hope that
helps you guys in anyway!

500 Days of Summer


So, it's 2 in the morning, I'm in front of my computer. I should be getting ready for sleep, for church, but I'm not. You see, I came back home about 2 hours ago from watching, well for me, probably one of the most compelling and moving movies I have watched in my short life time. Granted, I have only watched maybe a yard short of say what, 100 movies, a rough guesstimate; However, this movie is a film that I have been raving about and "commotioning" about for the past two months. I think I watched every possible trailer and snip bit out there about 500 Days of Summer on the world wide web. There are a multitude of reasons for my obsession with this movie, an obsession that started even before I had actually watched it. First reason being, I have had the hugest crush on the main character Summer, Zooey Deschanel, for the past year or so. She's almost everything I look for in a girl: Uniquely gorgeous, but also cute in her personality. Possesses a voice angels envy over. Dresses impeccably beautifully: simple but captivating. And has those eyes that are almost dangerous. Dangerous because you can sink in them. Okay really though, all the cheese balls and dandy lions aside, she's simply beautiful. Second reason is because I have always been a sucker for romance. Ha, the cheese balls are back.

(to be continued...there will be a point to all this, i promise)

Summer Plans


Yay! Second Entry! Well just to share with you, this summer is actually pretty filled for me. Currently, I'm in Riverside for summer school, the worst place you could possibly be during the summer. I'm also helping out with KCM STSM training, teaching skits and body worship. It reminds me of all the good times I had last year with my Cambodia team. Well I'll only be taking one session of summer school, so it's not too bad. Our house will also be moving this year to Victoria, also known as KCM Row. Pretty excited because the house is super nice and it's cheaper than what we're paying for right now. And I'm cooking for a retreat this coming Friday, which should be cool. That's pretty much the first phase of my summer break.

The next phase will be all fun fun fun. I'll be going to Hawaii this summer with my family. I've never been so I'm pretty excited about it. Soon after that, I'll be going on a three and a half week long road trip with SteveO and David around America! We have a rough schedule down, but some of the key places we'll be stopping by are Arizona, Dallas, New Orleans, Missouri, Florida, Atlanta, Virginia, N. Carolina, Maryland, Washington D.C., Boston, New York, Chicago, Colorado, Seattle, Oregon, and possibly Toronto. That's just a rough schedule. I'm soo excited for that trip!
Here's a rough route that we'll be taking. We're also hoping to do ministry along the way, passing out bibles and praying for people. Things of that sort. I'll be blogging and tweeting along the trip!

When all is done, I'll be starting my journey as president for UCR KCM. Please pray for me. Updates to come soon later!

Hello. Wowwwwww. The last time I actually blogged was in high school. I used to have a xanga and if you guys read it now, most of it is filled with me complaining and ranting about my life. People are starting to create their own blogs and I think I want to join in on this. This time around, this blog will be dedicated to expressing to you guys what God is doing in my life. I've come to realize that God continues to work in all of our lives. I tend to forget the lessons that God teach me, but I hope that through this blog, I can be able to remember and share with you guys how glorious and beautiful our God is.
Now many of you guys are probably wondering, why is your blog name FlalessinHim? You mispelled flawless. Well the reason why is many ppl call me Fla. Short for Frank La. Now, what I've come to understand is that I am truly flawless in God. I'm trying really hard to grasp and live out the understanding that God loves me regardless of what I do. To Him, I am perfect, not because of anything I've accomplished or done. But because of what Christ has done, because of His obedience to His Father, and because even though He was tempted in every way, He still lived a perfect life for US! That is the reality of our salvation. There is nothing I can do to reward myself righteousness and salvation, but it was Christ has ALREADy done for us. So now I'm trying to live my life understanding that there is no amount of sin that I can commit to make God love me less, and no amount of good deeds that I can accomplish that will make God love me more. His love is perfect, his love is constant, and everlasting. It is unconditional. That is His love for us. That is why I am flawless in Him.
I hope throughout my blog writting I can continue to grow and learn and share with you guys how amazing our God is.
May you daily recognize His love for us.

By His grace alone,
Frank La
