Healing work in mission

When I got up this morning, I felt dizzy ... after taking half a bottle of chicken essence ... off I went to worship.

It's church's annual mission conference this weekend. Oh boy, the message was so strong. It's nothing like those hard-sell 'go go go mission' but such a motivational sharing by Rev. Wong. He started off the message by sharing a story of how his heart was moved in seeing brokenness is people's lives ... and his basic mentality about mission is to have a compassionate heart to minister to those who are so wounded and bring them to Christ for healing. After all, healing is a huge part of mission work. OH BOY ...

God keeps on knocking and knocking my heart ... same question came to my mind. Ken and I exchanged eye contact and surely God has spoken to our hearts in the same way. We will keep on praying in where God will lead down the road in serving in His Kingdom together. All these messages lately have been ... pointing to the same direction ... 

Father, Your calling in my life has become my identity somehow ... and that I will yield for you to take the lead in this whole ... 'thing' ...

a short post, but gotta note this down before I head back to my papers ... 

My genograms and His Grace

Tonight, as I was sitting down at my desk, I suddenly want to draw a genogram to help me think ... 

I didn't draw a full-blown version, but as I was drawing ... a question came to mind "Am I drawing my genogram as who I am today? Or, as who I was ..." 

This question shocked me. 

... this question means ... I have changed ... my family have changed ...

... all by His grace alone ...

... Then ...

I remember when I 1st drew my genogram in my family counselling class, burst out in tears all the way and I couldn't finish my assignment. 'cause then, I realized how broken my family was and even so ... the side where I had to draw my biological dad's side was totally blank ... not that I didn't want to draw ... but I realized how little I knew about dad...so little to a point I wondered if I ever had a dad. 

... Now ...

Over the years, I guess God tenderly listened to my tearful prayers ... I guess God took what I said in my prayers very mindfully ... I realized how much God has done in my life and family over the years ... As least, my dad's side in the genogram is no longer completely blank. I keep asking God to mend the wounds. 

Lord, I am  about 6 months away from finishing this degree. If it is of your use, please help me to finish it well for Your Glory. I just simply trust that if You need to use this ... you will carry me through for the last few classes. 

Lord, I am a year away from starting a new family ... I pray that Your grace and guidance are all along the way. Ken and I will to yield for your intervention in our lives together ...

Father, I am weak, but you are strong ... 

Feeling a little eerie tonight ...

公公出的無聊問題 (5)

無聊問題(4)

近日有很多重大的決定要考慮，又是無聊問題出動作舒緩之用的時候 ...

... 點解廁所會有天花板？

代禱

近日，常常在腦海浮現的urge就是為身邊的人禱告 ...

世界上太多人被各樣的經歷torture, 

我沒什麼可以做到，

但我卻能為他們祈禱，

我深信要deliever他們的不是我，

卻是神。

After all, 我總覺得在苦難中經歷神其實是多寶貴 ...

我就要安靜的聽聽聖靈要我如何為我身邊的人禱告 ...

And it is interesting how God draws me intimately to Him through prayers ...

It's just like the passage that we focused on in my online class last week ... in John 15. 

If it wasn't God's loving forgiveness and grace, I would not have such privilege to be in an intimate closeness in my friendship with God. (p.s. I wrestled and argued with God too at time!!!)

... 我不再稱你們為僕人，因為僕人不知道主人所作的事；我已經稱你們為朋友了，因為我從我父那裡聽見的一切，都已經告訴你們了。不是你們揀選了我，而是我揀選了你們，並且分派你們去結果子，就是結常存的果子，使你們奉我的名，無論向父求甚麼，他必定賜給你們 ... 

What a lesson that God has been teaching me about prayers ... 

God is so good ...

Yup ... that's the song keeps playing in my head all these weeks ...

I learnt this song when I was in grade 9 sunday school ... and I remember how our fellowship counsellor shared this song with us when I was 22 (??) ... 

As simple as such ... God is so good ... God is so good ... God is so good, He's so good to me ...

A love that we undeserved but graciously given ... thanks Dad :)

You are not guilty anymore ...

Then each went to his own home ... but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 

At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he saw down to teach them.

The teacher of the law and Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to jesus, made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, 

"Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?!"

... but Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finder.

When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, 

"If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her"

... Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.

At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time ...

the older ones first ...

until only Jesus was left ...

with the woman still standing there.

Jesus straightened up and asked her, 

"Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"

"No one, sir," She said.

"Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared.

"Go now and leave your life of sin."

This is the forgiving Grace of God ... Repent ... and leave your sins ... embrace the freedom in Christ that you have never experienced before.
