一场大火留下了的美好踪迹...
凌晨时分，教会一位弟兄的板厂着火。工人发现时，火已经扩散到各处，无法靠近救火。今早还刮着大风，使抢救工作更为艰难。当弟兄五点多抵达工厂时，只能眼睁睁的看着大火吞灭了他所有的财产。这次是他放最多木材在工厂的一次。无情的火把工厂烧为平地，木材没了，机器也坏了，工人也没了工作和家园。
在电话上慰问这位教会领袖时，他反而鼓励起我来，说：“我感觉有一股力量支持着我，上帝对我们一定有美好的旨意。我不难过，不担忧。唯一不好受的是，多年跟着我的工人怎么办？他们从年轻就在我工厂工作、结婚、生子、儿女上学，他们接下来要怎么办？我无法养活他们，因为我仅有的烧掉了，目前无法提供他们任何工作。先安定好他们再说......。”
今晚我看见基督徒信心被操练时仍能结出来美好的果子，
我看见一个值得年轻人学习的榜样，
更重要我看见上帝在人心里工作。
“我没有难过，所以你也不要难过......。”
理侨uncle，谢谢你给我人生上了一个美好的功课。

我又发病了
每次发病的时候，心情几乎都会落到井底。自2008年八月我都在与病作战，有时我胜，有时我败，而大部分的时间我都是打败仗。今天也不例外，我败了⋯⋯。除了长年累月的病毒，鼻子敏感也在这几天里重探我。唉～
长达五年半的时间，我经常问：“上帝，祢什么时候要医治我？”
“你相信我会医治你吗？”
信心的功课不容易学，尤其当你看了无数的医生、医师、治疗师，吃了无数的西药、抗生素、中药、偏方、食谱，一切几乎都没有太大的帮助。我的中医师告诉我：“你需要休息！”，我的西医生说：“这是因为你抵抗力弱。”⋯⋯这一切我都做了，可是⋯⋯。
“我的神，我的父，我的磐石”成为了我今天的安慰。
我的神我的父
我的磐石我敬拜祢
祢的慈爱丰盛的慈愛
永远屹立不变建立 到万代
我的神我的父
我的拯救我赞美祢
祢的信实恒久的信实
永永远远坚立天上
我要欢呼向 祢举双手
向祢扬声高唱哈利路亚
因祢喜悦我們
是我的力量荣耀
愿在光明中与祢同行
我要欢呼 向祢举双手
向祢扬声高唱哈利路亚
祢是我的主宰
谁能与我的神相比
我一生向祢俯伏敬拜
OK！我会努力抗病！
倘若您也长期生病，愿这首诗歌成为您的帮助。
倘若您的家人长期生病，愿你不灰心，继续支持鼓励您的家人。
外子与我虽不知道我何时痊愈，
但我们知道上帝是我们生命的主宰，我们一生向祂俯伏敬拜。

The "Perfect" Woman
Lately I came across a short video clip and is absolutely excited about it. I think everyone, especially young girls and women, should watch it. Here it is!
5 Minutes Of What The Media Actually Does To Women
Media portrays the PERFECT woman to mankind. The society creates an unrealistic image of what beauty looks like, and it is an impossible image, reflected by none other than touched up and photoshopped into perfection. The media's beauty definition is devastating for women, and has in fact, crushed many lives. It is said that only 2% of women in the world believe that they are beautiful and actually feel good under their skin.
I appreciate the fact that I do not have flawless skin, or a perfectly balanced figure. I have freckles and cellulite. I have extra fat on my waist and thigh. My skin tone is not balanced. My grey hair has been after me often lately. The fact - I am not perfect.
Do that make me less valuable in God's eyes? Certainly not.
My skin will wrinkle over time, my youth and beauty will fade, but one thing for sure - I do not have to to look a certain way to have any worth. However I have not been like this all these while. I have certainly come a long way. Like many young girls, I was brain-washed in many ways to target for certain standard of beauty in order for people to like and accept me. I fell for the beauty myth. And of course, no matter how much I tried, I was nowhere near the perfect girl.
It wasn't until I learned to recognize the image of God within myself, that I started to see beyond physical looks. I understand more and more that it is vital to accept myself as how God created me, not as how the media defines beauty.
I realize this shall be a life-long struggle and learning. God help me. ^^v
