Wisdom

I often think I am not smart enough and am often frustrated when I don't acheive as well as I expected.

Last week we learned about wisdom in our bible study group, and the Word of God enlightened me. I shall never be ashamed of who I am and what I have not acheived. Rather, I need to acknowledge that wisdom comes from God, and I need to learn that if I didn't perform well, that may mean I have not asked God for enough, I have not drawn closer enough to God and surrender my work to Him.

I always need to ask myself:
Have I asked God for concentration?
Have I asked God for time management?
Have I asked God for planning?
Have I asked God for direction?
Have I asked God for wisdom?

It is not about how good I am but it is about how good I am to rely on God!!

Jesus lifehouse

I went to church today, and the name of the church is Jesus lifehouse. It's a Japanese and English bilingual church situated not too far from the heart of Tokyo. Thanks to Shermayne's friend- Kat, that I am able to find a church immediately after my arrival in Japan. Moreover, the church is not too far from my dormitory either, it only takes about half an hour to get there by train. In Japan, this is considered quite close. There are four services surprsingly, people get to choose the best time that suits them. The one I went was the 1pm service as was suggested by Kat. This is a pretty good time for me as well. The hall was smaller than I expected, but when I got there, the service had already started and was already filled with people. The music was quite loud though, people were singing, clapping and dancing around. Jesus lifehouse is probably a smaller version of Planetshakers in Melbourne, coincidentally that the English pastor is an Australian, too. Apparently he is from ...

God has not forgotten you

神未曾忘記過你  In the midst of hardship, it's so easy to be caught up in our circumstances. We may often wonder where God is and why doesn't He take away our pain? Genesis 39:2-3 2  The  Lord  was with Joseph so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master.   3  When his master saw that the  Lord  was with him and that the  Lord  gave him success in everything he did. Though Joseph was wronged, faced unjust imprisonment, the Lord was always with Him. God's favour was on him even in the darkest times.  God was with Joseph all along, God will also be with you through the ups and downs of life. Do not be afraid, do not be dismayed, He will deliver you when the timing is right. Hang in there, pray always, submit your requests to Him and He will definitely come to your rescue. Will you choose to trust?

Was I right or wrong?

Yesterday I had very special encounter. It turned out to be a breathtaking one at the end and in fact I could be in danger, but I think I don't regret doing it. Around 12pm, I was walking towards the train station from home to go to the city. Along the way, I passed a lady who stood in the middle of the footpath looking dizzy, her head was down and wasn't standing properly. Though it was just a glance, I continued to walk for 5 metres, the image of the lady still remained in my head, in just a few seconds, a lot of coversations went on in my head. "Stop? No stop? You are going to be late for train. Go back to check up the lady." At the end I stopped, turned around and walked back towards the lady knowing I would be late for the train I was catching. I approached her and asked "Are you ok? Do you need a hand?" Nodded and shook her head. While talking to her, I saw two fresh wounds on her face, one on the corner of her right eyebrow and one on the edge of her ...
