When my child’s self pity cries,

My savior mode ignites,

But its heaviness of rushing help,

Seem to overwhelm his anxious mind.

I repent for my pride,

Turn to God for help our fragile souls.

Only cry out to Him for His great power,

Praise Jesus Christ for being my son’s only Savior.

(2 Corinthians 4:7)

我不能靠自己，，

我不需靠自己，

聖靈完美引領，

讓我在風暴中呼求你，

使我經歷平安的主，

我就敬畏你，

得了力量脫離罪惡謊言。

You broke down gates of bronze,

And cut through bars of iron.

Save me, the prisoner,

From darkness and death,

To light and life. (Psalm 107:10-16)

Once hungry and thirsty,

For love and meaningful life,

But life ebbed away,

Without hope,

Until God led me by Jesus Christ,

The straight high way,

To His dwelling Fortress I am settled.

He satisfies and fills my thirst and hunger

With His goodness and provision,

Each day is a renewed buffet of full course to satisfy my soul.

“The Lord is here”

Is the name of the city I live.

I am encircled by Father God, Son of God and Holy Spirit,

Forever strong and secure. (Psalm 107:5, 7, 9)

 

主說：光照進黑暗中，

我的心明亮了，如打開了窗，迎接旭日，

吸入清晨的新氣息。

主說：你是自由的，

我的心釋放了，如出圈的牛犢，踴躍歡欣，

無所畏懼在天父的世界裡奔跑。

主說：我喜悅你，

我的心快活了，

我是被天父疼愛的孩子，

信心滿滿踏出每一步，

不擔心做錯，因我領受的是兒女的靈，不是奴僕的靈（羅馬說8:15）

不害怕錯過，因我讓天父的大手緊握著我的，享受走過每一個高山和低谷。

Many times God deliver me, save me,

I will never forget His holy and glorious name.

I will always praise in thanksgiving,

Every morning, His mercy is new for me,

So I come to offer myself to Him,

With the blood of Lamb,

And the refreshing oil of the Holy Spirit.

I am renewed and ready to put up my full sails,

To go to any place Jesus command me,

For He is with me,

I am confident and very bold. (Ezekiel 46:13-15)

 

When I worry about my self performance,

I imagined if I can move to a warmer place,

I would be more active to do God’s work.

I tell God what I thought and didn’t hear God’s respond.

When I read devotion today,

Romans 15:13 remind me God is my source of hope.

Only He can fill me with peace and joy,

Then overflow out of me through the power of the Holy Spirit.

God speaks hope to me,

Instead of scolding my unthankful wish to the place He set for me.

 

God is willing to save sinners,

God is able to save all.

Before I know God,

He came to save me.

After I know God,

He comes through for me over and over.

One thing He proves His faithful love,

“I am with you always”,

In the up and down of life,

Doesn’t matter what happens,

He is with me.

“Remember, my child,

I created you for my glory and delight.

I love you.” (Isaiah 43:1-7)

 

The old has gone, no condemnation,

The new has begun, making right with God,

At the moment you turn to Jesus Christ,

This old law has been replaced,

With the new covenant which remain forever,

So is the Holy Spirit, who give me freedom,

Change me into Jesus’ glorious image,

The confidence in this new way, make me very bold,

To overcome the fallen world.

(2 Corinthians 3:11,12,5,17)

All I pray and do

Are empowered through faith in God,

Overflow His power in Jesus Christ’s authority.

Even speaking in tongue,

My spirit speaks His commands,

So things shall come to be and established.

My actions match my divine identity,

That’s my holy fit of His holiness.

 

聖靈吹起風來

在我揚起的滿帆上，

我等候並重新得力，

輕省、加倍速度前進。

我依主耶穌的吩咐，

掌舵前往。

In Japanese BSF, through Sachi’s and Aya’s sharing,

God gives me a beautiful picture about cleaning my sins,

White and clean like snow,

By pouring His overflowing grace and holy anointing into my heart,

To wash off and away my sins like dirty sediment on the bottom of the vase.

Thank God for loving me like Hosea married the wayward prostitute,

I am assured to belong to Him as His pure bride through Jesus Christ.
