Cast all your burden to God,

For He cares for you.

You can’t bear the burden of anxiety

To add your life longer

Nor are you required to bear the burden to be godly

However, you are commanded with His promise,

To let Him bear your burden

So you may receive His blessing

To be free to live in abundance of grace,

And display His love and wisdom

Be at peace in chaos

Be joyful ins suffering

Be victorious in troubles

By the power of the Holy Spirit.

***

It’s in our weakness where God meets us.

He display His power most clearly.

When I am confronted with my own weakness,

So I may experience His power.

God is not waiting for you to be strong to come to Him,

God is waiting for you to recognize that you are weak to cast off your burden to Him.

If I am anxious in controlling my life,

I haven’t really recognized my helplessness.

***

The moment you feel burdened by things,

That is the assignment God give you to pray.

And the reward is waiting for you,

To see His glory in His answer.

(1 Peter 5:7)

Think more about others with God’s love,

Less about what I should say.

Then I regain motivation to go online for the small group.

The result is I hear God’s word through prayer.

May God give Carrie integrity of heart to lead.

May God empower Janell to be responsible as a leader without need to know everything.

May God assure Cristy His delight in her who has freedom to make a godly decision.

Thank God for old Phyllis to be loved and taken care of by family and neighbors.

The tongue of messenger sent by the Holy Spirit is a blessing.

The small part in the body,

But plays an important role for blessing.

So don’t agree with those lies of despising,

But abiding in God’s love to preach.

Being content is not idling without pursuing novelty.

Being content brings forth wisdom of God’s peace to nurture your soul to be creative.

On the contrary,

Being fretting and coveting causes losing foothold in appreciating God

And apt to slip into death of sins.

May God create a pure heart in me.

He is my portion, the strength of my heart, all I need.

 

He encourages me through today’s devotion:

God’s commands always relate to His promises.

His command does not end with leaving behind,

But to possess and embrace what lies ahead.

“Let go of your hand so that your hand will be ready to grasp what I am about to give you.”

He is holding my right hand,

He guides me with His counsel.

May I not dwell on what I might be called to leave behind,

But fix my heart on what I will receive into my life.

(Psalm 73:3, 17)

(Psalm 73:3, 17)

Thank God for giving me honor,

Showing His love of generosity to His servant.

I receive memorable gifts and blessing from Him,

Through my editor, saints and friends.

Even a trip to Italy to open my heart to appreciate His abundance.

I shall remember:

God is greater so He empower me to be an overcomer.

I give thanks for the saints and His creation,

Who do many things I cannot,

So I can benefit from them

As I love God, who send them to give me help.

With the authority of Jesus’ righteousness,

I may judge God’s people with justice:

Defend the afflicted,

Save the needy,

Crush the oppressor of devil,

To announce freedom with justice of Jesus,

As an intercessor of Christ Jesus.

Praying life is my mission God ordains,

While my earthly need is also take care.

I’m honored to be part of His Body,

Working together and walking with Him till eternity.

(Psalm 72:1-4)

同心才能同行 (Walk together with the same mind.)

I heard Him saying in the early morning.

O Jesus Christ,

I desire to walk with you,

With your mind of humility and compassion.

When I meditate on who you are:

You are my Rock where I take refuge;

The dark of anxiety fades away,

My heartbeat stabilizes,

My mind is quiet,

My ears shut off the feeling of lies.

I see you are the light in me,

The temple you wash and paint and clean.

So I was transformed,

My wall turned transparent.

Let your light shine forth from me,

You are worthy of my praise,

So I am worthy of your honor through my faith in you.

And I shall have no worry if I indulge myself.

Jesus is God,

I am a mere man.

He is my solid Rock to depend on.

My worry is humane pride as skinning sand.

Only Jesus can powerfully reign

So I cast off all my burdens on His feet,

Look up to HIs shining face,

His love warms and melts all my anxiety,

Gives me integrity to guide me,

Through this earthly frame.

God has answered so many prayer

For giving me peace to step out in adventure to Italy

We got flights in low price.

We bought hidden purses.

I connect with Makiko in Rome.

I see God’s love to comfort me little by little.

Carol prayed that God is worthy so I am worthy to be rewarded by Him.

Suzie prayed that I shall not look down upon myself and I was touched to cry.

God doesn’t laugh at my worries but assure me with His peace and provision,

To help me grow bold in this season.

My hope in expectation to see the beautiful scenery and artistic paintings and drawing architecture and eating food is getting bigger because of Jesus’ peace.

No matter how much I can plan ahead,

I am comforted to know He is with me and He goes before me to prepare and go with me.

O Jesus, how I long for the trip,

With you, we shall be protected.

Praise God that

I have been redeemed,

So I can shout for joy,

My lips sing praise to Him,

I can write and tell all His righteous acts and wonderful deeds.

God increases my honor in front of foes and comforts me once again.

Stand firm in your faith at your gate,

As the tree takes deep root in the place God deliberately plants.

Let everything you do be through faith,

And no one shall accuse you,

As the truth of water circulates in your thoughts.

Let everything work out for your good.

When your heart loves God and people as yourself.

Give thanks for people who are doing different things from you,

For that’s God’s grace to all His people.

How much you die to the world,

Then how strong the fragrance of Jesus shall come forth from you,

You are setting free,

No need to be hurried or accepting condemnation of slowness to be perfect,

For Jesus is the Best Teacher to initiate and complete you to be perfect in His time.

Just ask for strength to follow Him daily,

So you shall be led to the complete

All things can be used for your training,

So  take heart to act upon your faith, from the daily chores to the big dreams,

Just pray first and persevere to follow His lead.

May I and my familyes be planted by His living water,

Bear all kinds of fruit of Holy Spirit in season to satisfy people’s souls,

My leaves are evergreen to heal people’s sickness of mind and body,

Through God’s authority flowing from my prayer.

(Psalm 1:2-3, Jeremiah 17:8)

Like chemo to kill the cancer cells,

Like blazing fire to refine metal,

Like a strong soap to bleach clothes,

Like refiner of silver to burn away the dross,

As in the presence of Christ Jesus,

Your immortal body shall be cancer free with life,

Your soul shall be sadness free at peace,

Your spirit shall be sin and guilt free in joy.

When you see His holy beauty, you just want to be like Him.

He graciously create that desire of holiness in you,

And promises to fulfill it for you through this earthly life journey.

(Malachi 3:2-3)
