還有390日 - 影相日

哈哈,對呀對呀,上個禮拜影左相 lu ...
<-- 因為,要用手機偷影,所以,quality也是這樣吧!!

其實,影相開心之餘,我同亞Ken也上左一課信心的功課呢。A week before the photoshooting day, the wedding shop owner called us and asked if we want to take the picture within 24 hours, as the forecast said it would rain on the day that we booked for photoshoot. 

Ken and I went for a little field trip in the park we were planning to take our pictures. As we walked, we prayed aloud to God and trusted that whatever He provides on the day we originally booked, we would have happily take that as a gift. It sounds stupid, but somehow, we both felt even it turns out to be a cloudy (unless it's a thunderstorm) day, we would still do our happy pictures. 

We turned down that offer and trusted in our Lord. But it's true scary, as we were following the weather forecast, it said it would have 100% rain. OOPS! there were moments when I turned to Ken and said "Opppps ... dim suen dim suen". Ken would say "Hey, where's the faith!?" ... We kept on trusting ...

2 days before that photoshooting ... hahaha ... the forecast suddenly said "0% rain, cloudless, sunny, +13C" ... hahaha ... God is good ...

During the whole day taking outdoor pictures ... Ken and I kept looking up to the cloudless blue sky thanking God for the smallest thing that He prepared. It was such a warm day in the midst of the chilly autumn weather. We can't ask for more ...

Throughout the whole day, I kept having a saying in my head "Long, you and Ken have to have this kind of faith in the path ahead of you. I will always prepare the best for you ..."

The next morning, I was prompt with a scary question since the moment I opened my eyes on my bed ... (will be continued ...)

Today's headlines

I took my Subaru Babe to shop for replacing his window shield today ... I walked over to Tim Horton's to wait for my buddy to pick me up for work  ... 

Tim's was so busy in the morning ...
The entertaining part was that for the 45mins I sat there to read for my papers ... I overheard dialogues of the top 3 headlines on today's paper ...
1. 要救市
2. Election today
3. New Mac Announcement


haha ... basically, I didn't miss my daily routine to listen to news on radio ... :P

White Horse

As I was leading worship tonight ... I kept on praying for a pure worshipful spirit in each of our soul. When I looked at our choir standing at the back
... a glimpse of  snapshots of how our life stories unfolded and tears shed as our fellowship grows over the months and years,
... a glimpse of snapshot of a friend whom I have known for years, grew together, served together, offered our lives together to God to use, but severely attacked by many tribulations in life, struggling to find his identity as a man ... after all, his identity in Christ, 
... bondage and chains holding Christ followers back from experiencing freedom and peace in Christ ...

Slowly a very stern image anchored in my heart ...
a picture of a white horse ran quickly, with authority and force, in the darkness ... breaking metal chains after chains (some were rusted and some were shinny) that were entangled ... the white horse ran and ran ... it turned into such a glorious light as it travelled to a green pasture ... no longer I saw the horse, but the light ... the light was very warm and bright ...

Without plan ...
... God gave me tears to cry and to pray for those who are entangled ... 
and I read  
我們坐在黑暗中,死陰裡,被困苦和鐵鍊捆綁 ... 
... on and on ... 

我回家也趕快告訴Ken這些事,他也用同一句話回應
「Satan好不笨,會去attack D 越來越走得近上帝,行的近光明的人 ...」

求上帝憐憫 ...

My dear Subaru Babe ...

My Subaba Babe is injured this afternoon on Highway ...

A rock hit the window shield and the dent quick cracked and created a '7'-shaped scar :( 

I couldn't do much but kept on driving as cars and trucks on the road were furious today. I saw the scar started to spread ... my heart broke ... :( ... my subaba  .... 

it's longer than my my hand ... I hope I don't need to replace the shield ... if not, I'd have to pay $300 for deductible. But regardless, I have to pay 'something' to fix it ... 

NO MOOD ... NO MOOD at all. But did a pretty nice radio segment this afternoon ...
Was going to go to exercise ... but no mood tonight. I better stay home and nail my homework down. 

Grrrrrrrrrrr ... I don't like highways ...

無聊問題 (3)

hahaha ... one more ....

有一塊beacon同一條腸仔放左落同一隻鑊度,點解佢地唔傾計?

so mo liu ... haha ... 

John 2:1-11


I must mark this down before I head to bed ...

Though there's a lot of works required from my online course in the gospel of John ... it has been a fruitful so far ... I have to write down some of my thoughts along the way ... gotta make it short ...as I am already quite tired after studying for many many hours today ... my eyes blurred

"... when the wine was gone, 
Jesus' mother said to him, 'They have no more wine.'
'Dear woman, why do you involve me?' Jesus replied 'My time has not yet come.'
His mother said to the servants, 'Do whatever he tells you.'" John 3:3-5

Why the mother of Jesus brought this to Jesus' attention ... we don't know ... At this stage there is no indication why Mary expected Jesus to do anything, but his answer to her and her comment to the servants indicated that she thought he would do something to solve this. We don't know if she expected a miracle. We don't know what she expected, and we don't know why she expected anything at all. 

... but what she did .... 

... was to bring the situation to Jesus; and she has complete confidence that he will do something ...

... and that was how the 1st sign took place in the gospel of John in Cana ...

... makes me wonder ... am I praying having such a full confidence that God will intervene? I guess my faith would sometimes swing to the other side of the pendulum of easily giving in to accept the fact that things are ... in fact, God could intervene at His will that let not forget that ...
Reminds me of the serenity prayers ...
"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; 
courage to change the things I can; 
and wisdom to know the difference" ...
