My portion

God’s heavenly treasure trove, 

Where stores the portion granted for my sake.

The more I dig,

The more I get.

His words are precious than pure gold,

Where else should I look for,

Who else can I compare.

I’ve been given the pricy Mine–

The Bible full of His promises of blessing,

Indwelling my heart of Jesus Christ.

羨慕別人就是去挖別人的寶庫,東西是人家的

要專心看自己擁有的寶庫,挖到了就是自己的。

And the words of the Lord are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold refined seven times. (Psalm 12:6)

Love song

主よ、あなたと共にずっと生きていく。

私の人生を変える、

あなたの愛を伝えるために。

主啊,請來到我敬拜你的園內,

聖靈的風吹來你的馨香,

我的口傾吐愛語,

願你的心喜悅。

我的耳聽你的嘶語,

我的心就滿足。

你是我的良人,

既白且紅榮美超越一切,

我是你美麗的佳偶,

一生跟隨你腳蹤。

How beautiful you are, my darling!
    Oh, how beautiful!
    Your eyes are doves. (Song of Songs 1:15)

He examines

Father God examines the righteous,

Shine on my path ever bright,

Like the noonday sun above,

So I see His face,

Through the loving just Jesus Christ,

Who is righteous to examine my cause,

And defending in front of my accusing enemy.

As I entrust my heart to Him,

I see Jesus Christ has always been my advocate

In every breath of my life.

The Lord examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love violence,
he hates with a passion. On the wicked he will rain fiery coals and burning sulfur; a scorching wind will be their lot.For the Lord is righteous,  he loves justice; the upright will see his face. (Psalm 11:5-7)

 

Call to belong

Praise God for calling me,

To belong to Jesus Christ,

To be His own holy people,

given grace and authority,

As His apostle,

To bring glory to His Name.

You have been chosen to belong to Jesus Christ also. So I write to all of you in the city of Rome. God loves you and has chosen you to be set apart for Himself. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you His loving-favor and peace. (Romans 1:6-7)

Shake off

I gather wood of Word of God,

Lay on the fire of the Holy Spirit.

The heat of Truth drive out evil snake of lies,

Even though I got stung by the fang.

I shake off the snake to the Holy Fire,

Let the darkness be consumed by God’s inflaming light.

Once safely on shore, we found out that the island was called Malta. The islanders showed us unusual kindness. They built a fire and welcomed us all because it was raining and cold. Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand, they said to each other, “This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live.” But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects. The people expected him to swell up or suddenly fall dead; but after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god. <Acts 28:1-6>

主的智慧

主七十個七次的原諒,不斷消除人對刑罰的害怕,

這是主的智慧,叫人自由後甘心樂意為主擺上。

竭力追求主是一種幸福,

每靠主前進一步就是進步。

Advance in maturity,

Be a holy instrument for His good work.

Justice

God is fair.

One man (Adam) sinned.

The Son of man (Jesus Christ) paid for it.

The devil must shut up.

 

God is just–

All men sin;

But One Son of God (Jesus Christ) bore all our penalty of death,

Hung on the cross on our behalf to die,

Took the blame in front of the Judge throne.

Raised from death by the same Judge,

To grant us the freedom of Righteousness,

So that all men through His Way are forgiven and redeemed to alive,

Even restored to be co-heirs with Him as God’s glorious Son.–

It’s finished–His redemption plan. 

No more condemnation–devil’s works are destroyed.

My worthiness is in Christ, who is the artisan, defining my price.

My justice is in Christ, who is the judge, handling my case.

My honor is in Christ, who is the Lord, rewarding my faith.

This is God’s mercy to sinners,

Righteousness to His believers, and

Justice to the world.

My days

Eating God’s Rhema Manna ,

Enjoy the morning coffee,

Walking in the sunshine,

Meditating in the creation, 

Listening to the Creator,

Clinging my mind to His heart,

Through faith in Jesus Christ,

I live.

Be free

Be free to serve, not fall to sins.

Be free to run, with a heart abiding in God, not the law.

Be free to rejoice, in Jesus Christ alone.

Be free to love, in the Spirit.

Be free to endure, with His grace.

Be free to wait, on His promise.

Be free to grow, in His time.

A beautiful pillar

I plant you from a little seed,

Carefully water and grow you into a tree.

No hurry to show you by pulling you big,

For I will carve you into a beautiful beam,

To adorn My Palace as a perfect scene. 

Then our sons will be like plants nurtured in their youth, our daughters like corner pillars carved to adorn a palace. (Psalm 144:12)
