The reward of seeking God in early morning =)

I wonder...

Because of work, I missed Christmas Caroling
She told me, "We had lots of fun."
He told me, "You missed the fun."

Because of work, I missed her birthday celebration
He told me,"You missed the fun."

Yes, I missed the fun
I missed the time spend with brothers and sisters
All because of WORK!

On my way back home
I pondered on this
I wondered why I was allowed to experience this

I knew I need to be always ready to serve
Indeed, when I was ready
Doors opened
One after another

I wonder if God is preparing me to be ready to sacrifice fun in some point of time in the journey of serving through these little lessons

I just pray that working won't take up too big portion of my time to the extend of affects my serving

一宿虽有哭泣，早晨必欢呼；主的恩典乃是一生之久

那天，听到一个姐妹的祷告
＂。。。神啊，在这样内忧外患的情况下，他依然依靠祢，你几时才要施行拯救。。。＂

哦。。听到她的祷词才发现以这个词来形容那个光景其实真的很贴切。我从来没有想过也。我想，就算是内忧外患，只要仰望祂、紧紧地抓住祂，就算是大风大浪也能安然渡过。虽然那个过程并不容易挨，但只要凭信心仰望那创始成终的耶稣，黑夜很快就会过去，取代而之的是带着盼望和温暖的黎明。

新的一天，新的恩典，新的旅程，全新的你。

Deep inside my heart...

Holiday always comes just in time
Yea, I need a break
Life is not easy especially work
and when work involves people
that's even challenging
my heart is a bit fragile
but His grace is sufficient
Die to expectation
Trust in Him alone
Trust in His power
Not His ways

Prayer meeting was off for Sun and Mon
Today is just the second day
and I miss it so much
Miss the heavenly encounter with God
Miss soaking in His presence
I just want to hide in His arms

Yea, thank God that I don't have to wait another day
There's morning prayer tomorrow!!!

God is good, all the time =)

When Hope is Deferred

"So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and afflicted Job with painful sores from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Then Job took a piece of broken pottery and scraped himself with it as he sat among the ashes. His wife said to him, 'Are you still holding on to your integrity? Curse God and die!'" (Job 2:7-9).

I walked into the room and Angie burst out crying. "I'm so discouraged! I don't know what else to do. Will I ever get better!?" After three years of fighting a medical condition the doctor just told her no progress had been made in the last six months of treatments. Alternative treatment was needed that might have more severe side effects.

Great men of God with healing ministries had prayed for her. Thousands had prayed for Angie through our ministry. A string of doctors had failed to yield any position results. When hope is deferred, the psalmist says, the heart becomes sick. During these seasons, we can only do one thing. We must hang onto whatever faith we have to get through each day and entrust our lives to Him. "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior" (Hab 3:17-18).

When faith doesn't see results it challenges what we believe. We must pray as Job prayed: "Teach me what I cannot see" (Job 34:32). God says there is a purpose in everything we go through. Later that day Angie talked to a friend who once had the same issues, but was now better. "Angie, God is going to reveal things to you through this season of adversity that you would never receive had you not gone through this. This is part of your calling even though Satan is the instrument. God is always bigger than Satan's afflictions."

Our greatest tests come when we cannot see positive results from our faith and obedience. In such cases we must die to our expectations and entrust them to our Lord.

走走逛逛时
新开张的Living Quarters吸引了我的目光
看着橱窗里满满的圣诞饰品
忽然
我想起你
＂为什么？＂
我也很好奇
想了又想
一想再想
也许
因为
某年的圣诞节
我们一起度过吧
圣诞节快乐哦
