给我一颗爱你的心



歌词:

给我一颗爱你的心
最初认识你 爱你的心
充满渴慕 期待 永不止息
给我一颗爱你的心
给我一颗爱你的心

主我要更爱你 像鹿切慕溪水
我心更切慕你 主我要更爱你
像天父般爱你 像孩子最纯的心

让我们以这首歌成为我们的祷告,
让我们的心每一天都满满的拥有上帝的爱!
一颗我们起初认识他的时候爱他的心!

万物腾涨的年代!

嘿, 嘿! 如果你是在外工作的话, 我相信你一定有feel到这通货膨胀的压力. 在过 去短短的3个星期里, 汽油涨了40%. 我国人民从不太满意到非常不满意我们政府的表现. 反对和诉求声四起, 当中有希望政府可以以Inflation国油公司的盈利来补贴人民啦, 有希望政府更多或继续补贴汽油市价等等. 投机政客也乘机而入, 发起了"带头反对油价"以赚取更多政治本钱.

也有更些理智的人, 开始发表过去的拐杖政策的确寵坏了百姓.

有时我在想, 拐杖政策在某种程度上确有它的扶持作用, 它能让缺乏的受到照顾, 最重要的当然是给予还未能自立的作一点开头作用, 来个信心的第一步.

我想上帝也不会过度的让我们使用拐杖 (当然, 祂的plan最perfect的嘛!). 有时祂特地不会拿去我们的困难, 有时祂特地让我们面对经济问题. 当然, 有时我们的经济问题是来自自己的失算.

老实说, 现在这阶段经营一间机构像特别难. 一方面顾客都在努力降低成本, 那当然影响了销售量和销售额咯, 另一方面自己各方面包括人工的成本都上升, 不用说更大大降低了盈利的可能性. 又另一方面, 还要追得上所定下的增长率更是天方夜谈.

感谢主, 在我面临管理压力和担忧同时, 上帝向我说了,

"Hello 喂! 我不比这油价, 物价和天方夜谈更大吗? 你不是常这样唱, 说, 甚至教我的子民吗?"

因为祂比我们更清楚我们自己的能力! 只要我相信, 努力学习, 提升再提升, 我相信一定可以克服这小小的"涨"困难!

我想万物飞涨, 我的信心也应该涨幅更大才对!

"神 若 帮 助 我 们 , 谁 能 敌 挡 我 们 呢" 罗8:31

我的祷词

不要给我太多的聪明去向不够的人索取,
给我一颗原谅的心,去享有不怨的权力。

不要给我美丽的名姓去欺骗平凡的自己,
给我一颗渺小的心,满载了欣喜,装不下妒忌。

不要给我太好的记性去计算曾经的怜悯,
给我一颗善忘的心,记住了曾经的接受,
就忘了过去的施予。

不要给我太多的时间去陪伴自己的忧虑,
给我一颗炙热的心去包容酷冷的真理。

没有路的地方别急着给我平坦,让我的脚板认识荆刺,但给我认清方向的眼睛。
没有光的地方别急着安排光亮,让我摸索自己的勇气,但给我等待的信心。

不要给我唇齿的伶俐去说太多堂皇的道理,给我一颗专注的心,让我先懂得仔细聆听。
不要给我永远的顺利,我不想在幸福中忘了同情。

给我一颗感激的心,让我在未失去时就懂得珍惜。

注:多个月前遇见了一个十几年没见的老同学。端午节的时候到访他老家住了一天,他妈妈亲手做的“菜宝”咸肉粽我还吃了4粒。他妈妈说,用“菜宝”炒过的粽子吃了不会胃痛(所以我很放心的一口气吃了4粒)。晚上,他把纪念册拿出来给我看。一页一页地翻看着——梁文福《我的祷词》;一首曾经送给这位老朋友的诗。没想到,它竟鼓励了今天的自己。

Holding on God Strongly......


Today, I had a chance to play a game that I would never think of playing. My friends and I went to a beach and played Boogie board. It was very fun but tired and sour. Boogie board is a type of water activity that letting a strong wave pushes you to furthest distance. There are several steps to play Boogie board. First, you need to tie the string that attached to the board so that the board will not be pushed away by waves. Second, you will hold the board, stand in the middle of the sea, and wait for a strong wave to come. While waiting, you need to get ready and jump into the wave right before the wave hit you. (You need to jump in an exact time so that the wave will push you as far as possible.) After the wave has hit you, you need to relax your body. Then the wave can bring you to the furthest distance. To enjoy boogie board, you need to have skill and stamina.

While playing boogie board, I thought of our spiritual lives. Tying the attached string on hand symbolizes holding on God. Standing in the middle of the sea and waiting for waves to come symbolize our lives in the world that full of problems. If I hold on my boogie board strongly, I will not afraid to sinking. If we hold on God strongly, we will never afraid of problems. Wave hitting, relaxing body, and going along with the strong wave symbolize the way we face our problems. While problems come, we need relaxation to face the problems and go along with the problems by God’s strength. Skill and stamina are needed to enjoy boogie board. Knowing God and strong spiritual life are needed to ‘enjoy’ problems.

2 Samuel 22:5-7, ‘When the waves of the death compassed me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid; the sorrow of the hell compassed me about; the snares of the death prevented me; in my distress I called upon the LORD and cried to my GOD; and He did heard my voice out of His temple; and my cry did enter into His ears.

God heard Daniel’s cry.
For sure He will hear our cry if we cry out to Him.

你是否还留心?


512大地震的死亡,受伤,失踪的人数不断地增加,这让每一个人都感到心酸。救灾的团体也在第一时间的感到现场协助,而我们也陆陆续续的把救灾款项,食物,衣物及生活上的一些必需品送到不同的灾区。我们也看到许许多多的义工团体到现场给于安慰辅导的工作,帮助他们重新振作起来。在灾难发生的时候,我们会关心到他们的需要,我们会恳切地为着他们来到祷告,我们会时时刻刻都留意着关于他们的新闻与报道。但是,在这一个月后的今天,我们是否还会像之前那样的关注他们的新闻与报道呢?
在我们的现实生活当中,我们关心身旁的人,是否也像是我们关心512大地震一样,时间久了就没把它当一回事呢?

Last Sunday Service


On last Sunday service, Pastor Robin said, “You have to give all away before you can enjoy the most.” This phrase means a lot to me.

Few days later, I read Ephesians 5:18 “Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.” It seemed like God was telling me something. Many times, I thought that I had given God many of my time. However, I did not. That was the reason once I did not enjoy serving. My life was filled with ‘WINE’. The ‘WINE’ that prevented me from getting closer to God. The ‘WINE’ that led me out of track. The ‘WINE’ that almost made me fell into a trap. I did not let Holy Spirit fill my heart.

Psalms 69:16, ‘Hear me, O LORD; for thy loving kindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.’

Give thank to God Almighty, no matter how far we walk away from God; no matter how many degree we turn away from God. God’s loving kindness and mercies will never turn away from us. I thank God that He gives me a chance to realize my sin and to turn back to Him.

Keep on holding on God and giving out all you can. Let yourself enjoy the colorful life.

Do they see Jesus in me

Do They See Jesus In Me

Is the face that I see in the mirror
The one I want others to see
Do I show in the way that I walk in my life
The love that you've given to me
My heart desires to be like you
In all that I do all that I am

*Do they see Jesus in me
 Do they recognize your face
 Do I communicate your love
 And your grace
 Do I reflect who you are
 In the way I choose to be
 Do they see Jesus Jesus in me*

It's amazing that you'd ever use me
But use me the way you will
Help me to hold out a heart of compassion and grace
A heart that your spirit fills
May I show forgiveness and mercy
The same way you've shown it to me

REPEAT*
Well I wanna show all the world
That you are the reason I live and breathe
So you'll be the one that they see
When they see me
REPEAT*

多年未听了, 还是让我流泪的歌

这首歌我从 宣轩 BeautyFootPrints.blogspot.com 借来的.
在这MV里, 是为了纪念佈道家Billy Graham. 相信你会喜欢.
记得我的首几张CD里, 这是我最感动的其中一首....
The song is so amazingly made with touching illustration.
歌手 : Ray Boltz 歌名 : Thank you



Sometimes I image Jesus would say this to me, you know, to encourage myself to continue to serve Him even on tough time. I'm so glad that during my early Christian walk God shown me this CD and it sort of built me up. Serving Him is not easy, but as we continue to give as the song suggest, to give our money, quality time & energy to the Lord, and great would be our reward in heaven! I believe.
