Be still

害怕被拒絕導致自我拒絕,導致保護自己,導致defend for self。

為何要把人的沉默看成拒絕呢?主啊,請您原諒我相信這個謊言。謝謝您原諒我。

我奉拿撒勒人主耶穌基督的名,斥責命令綑綁這些惡靈離開我,命令牠下到陰間死到火湖裡,不准在我裡面旁邊有任何轄制地位。

我宣告我是被天父上帝、主耶穌基督接納的,我也接納自己,我有主耶穌是我的保護,他會為我申冤,所以我安靜等候主。

Be still and know He is God.

1 Corinthians 13:7 AMP

Love bears all things [regardless of what comes],

believes all things [looking for the best in each one],

hopes all things [remaining steadfast during difficult times], 

endures all things [without weakening]

gain altitude against wind

The wind coms like a breeze,

For a bird flying with joy.

When the enemy comes like hurricane,

The bird confronts and extends its wings,

To gain altitude and overrun the turbulence.

So is my spirit of faith in Jesus Christ of Nazarene,

Never turn back but run forward against the wind,

To gain higher perspective of God,

And overtop my enemies,

For receiving the victory God has commands for me.

患難中的覺悟

用自己喜歡的方式去待人,

我的回饋是主耶穌來的喜樂,

不是別人來的回報。

 

說自己良心平安的話,

作自己良心平安的事,

不去擔心別人怎麼看我,

是敬畏神,不怕人。

 

不要勉強自己和他人,

是尊重神的創造。

自由

我知道自由的滋味了,

把我背負不了的重擔交給上帝,

便得到了溫柔的勇氣,

能接納自己與他人,

像野豬一般衝向夢想,

活出自己原本被造的美好樣式。

人死過一次,就不再死第二次。

God prepares

God prepares me,

And give me eyes of faith to see and receive.

Through the narrow way,

God prepares me to come through,

To expand my wings of faith.

So, I read the cloud,

Seeking His message of light on the dark side.

I shall be alert to listen to God and act,

With His divine peace.

冷靜

冷靜,是更需要信心肌肉的負重訓練,

比起年輕時的熱血,

一不小心就落入自我中心的儀式慣性,

漸漸以成功為範本,以失敗為處罰。

 然而父神的計畫高過我們的想像。

祂看成功為恩典,失敗為操練,

不用人因循的範本,

而用神永恆不變的律例。

Pass through

Pass through!

The depth of waters on earth or in the spiritual realm,

Because God wraps me up in His protective grace robe.

I shall not be swept over or under,

But through all troubles.

For my Lord’s voice is over the waters,

Commands it to be calm,

Shakes and strikes the enemies with flashes of lightning.

As the Lord thunders over the mighty waters.

My Lord sits enthroned over the flood;

He gives me strength

And bless me with peace.

(refer to Psalm 29)

God teaches

Praise be to God, who is 

Good and upright,

Therefore, thank God for 

Instructing me in His way,

Building me in what is right,

Teaching me His way.

I proclaim:

I fear God and keep the demands of God’s covenant.

I am humble to walk in all the loving and faithful ways chosen for me.

I will spend my days in prosperity and my descendants will inherit the land.

My eyes are ever on Father God,

Trust God alone to release me from the snare.

Thank Father God, who confides in me and makes His covenant known to me.

I have a pure heart and spirit of integrity and mind of righteousness of Jesus, 

Which protects me from evil.

I am redeemed and guarded,

By almighty God father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

I hope in God alone.

In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.

Thought about knife

When I cut the boiled eggs with plastic knife,

A thought comes to me.

I used to be soft like eggs,

Being cut easily by the harsh words like knife,

As I grow stronger in Jesus Christ,

My temperament becomes like an apple,

Not that easily hurt any more,

When sensing the oppression coming,

I pause and cry out to Him for help.

As I grow stronger again,

My spirit and mind become tougher like pumpkin,

This time I make the coming sword of lies,

Like the rock breaks the plastic knife,

I know God has prepared me to win,

Over the fragile foes.

It’s my practice

A thought comes to me,

Which is a joyful thing,

No need to prove myself to the world,

Just know my thought inspired by the Creator is present,

Which has proved His life in me.

I still have dreams,

Of writing touching stories and cheerful notes,

For bringing people to Jesus in their life journey.

God is preparing me,

Giving me opportunities.

So I will continue to be me,

Imaging freely and sharing that vision in passion,

That’s the divine path He charts for me.

生活中體會寫作題材,

藉寫作咀嚼生活。

五時通信給我這個觸發的媒介,我衷心感謝神,

要我slow down,冷靜

享受祂給我的生命與生活

不是工廠生產線地忙碌製造,

也不是長繭無感、憤世疾俗放棄人生。

紀錄心中的點滴,

在乎主耶穌怎麼想怎麼做,

這是成熟的聖徒奔跑的joyful highway.
