Counting the Days

November 1, 2025

It’s been only three days (at the time of writing this) since my wife went to Korea, and I already miss her. She is coming back. I already know the date of her return, but she is greatly missed, and so we talk to her on FaceTime twice a day. We are counting the days.

While she is away, she has given me a mission. Well, actually there are a few, but the most important mission is that I feed the girls in a healthy way. The girls are very responsible and know how to take care of themselves. They practice their piano, do their daily homework, and clean up after themselves, but it is my mission to feed them healthily. When my wife returns, I don’t want them to look skinny or malnourished, I mean, that would be completely wrong, right?

As I think about the absence of my wife (which is quite noticeable), I think about Jesus in heaven, who promised to return. Meanwhile, Jesus gave us a mission. He said, “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8. The mission is that we become witnesses and tell others about the good news of Jesus. This is in sync with the Great Commission I wrote about last week. When Jesus returns, we would like more people to be saved, and that is our mission. Just like FaceTiming with Hyemi each day, we FaceTime with God through the Bible and prayers daily, and we count the days of His return. And as we wait, our mission is to be His witnesses.

I thank you for your prayers and support of our ongoing evangelism, Revelation Today. I pray that as we witness for Jesus, and follow the mission given to us, we will hasten the return of Jesus.
