Into the book
God's continued challenges and promises came into my life.
And in the midst of my journey of faith, waiting, and patience, little by little, my desire to live as a person who pleases God grew.
My life's direction and passion disappeared, and I began to desire for God's will to be done in me.
--- p.8
It is amazing that through all the changes in our journey, we have still been able to enjoy God's faithful guidance and protection.
My family and I were able to experience firsthand what it means to find peace in God alone.
--- p.17
While I was praying, I thought I heard a very sad cry in my ears.
'God, what is this crying sound?'
A feeling came to my heart that 'God is weeping over this people.'
'Oh, God was crying too.
'You are crying so bitterly over such insignificant lives as ours!'
--- p.45
I realized that the reason God established the school even in impossible circumstances was because He had a special plan to bring about good changes in the children He loves through our school.
--- p.114
'Oh, God didn't give me this hardship to make me suffer.
You're asking because you think I can go there smiling.
'God didn't put this burden on me to make things difficult for me.'
--- p.220
Of course, God's thoughts do not come to us only when we choose faith.
Even in moments of failure and wandering, God's thoughts can penetrate us.
Therefore, it is necessary to continuously confirm the direction that I believe God has given me throughout my life.
--- p.241
Ultimately, this book is a story about 'God's faithfulness.'
God is faithful and we can entrust our lives to Him.
David likened God to a shepherd.
Both Abraham and David, who lived the journey of fulfilling God's promise, lived the lives of shepherds.
And in the midst of my journey of faith, waiting, and patience, little by little, my desire to live as a person who pleases God grew.
My life's direction and passion disappeared, and I began to desire for God's will to be done in me.

Publisher's Review
Testifying to the fulfillment of God's amazingly faithful promises!
God designs our lives, makes a special plan, and gives each of us a 'promise.'
And regardless of whether it is big or small, certain or ambiguous, He will surely bless those who look to the promise, keep the faith, and live their lives.
The young man who said he would devote only two years to missionary work after completing his doctorate at Harvard University has now spent over 20 years in the mission field.
During that time, I had to move to a different country nine times.
Despite facing numerous obstacles, including extreme climates, deteriorating health, threats from others, and financial difficulties, what he never let go of was God's promise.
Of course, living a life of hoping for a promise was accompanied by arduous waiting, patience, and bitter pain.
The author confesses that he wrote this book to help those who have fallen before the seemingly insurmountable wall of reality to stand up again, by testifying to the process through which he learned about God, grew in faith, and learned the growth of character and maturity in relationships while going through that time.
It's a messed up situation
Trusting in God's promises
A time when I had to stay firm
This article is the first
To the saints who are frustrated in front of the wall of reality
God's calling and promise
The purpose is to remind.
Also in the middle of this world
To expand the kingdom of God
Those who are tired from struggling
It was also written to be rebuilt.
In the mission field for twenty years
Through several major changes
After going through a time of searching for God and wandering,
For His guidance and fulfillment of His promises.
I was able to share my experiences.
