Interview God

Come to God in personal meeting,

Interview Him for knowing His mind.

Then He reveals His heart of love,

Instructs and teaches me,

Counsels and watches over me,

So I don’t need to be controlled

By the law like bit and bridle on a horse,

But understand His unfailing love

And all His wonderful attributes.

When I trust in Him with all my heart,

My spirit rejoice, my mind is glad,

My body sings and dances all days long.

(Psalm 32, Daniel 2:20)

I walk with freedom

How great is God’s goodness,

Stored up for me, who fear God.

Bestowed on me and shelter me,

From all the enemies’ accusing lies.

Free me and guide me to the spacious land,

Your dwelling is my safe harbor. (Psalm 31)

 

My spirit-led life (Romans 8:6)

Is alive and peaceful,

Thinking about the things of heaven,

Not the things of earth.

Hide my real life in Christ (Colossians 3:2-3)

Be free, walking as His light,

To bless the earthly world as His gracious conduit.

innocent deer

Being slaughtered by the poacher,

Being ripped off her precious skin,

Its dying eyes,

Milky, sad, gloom.

Still withholds its innocence,

Leaving its fate to the Creator.

Like Jesus Christ on the cross,

Who shall arise and shine,

In the Kingdom of Father God’s glorious reign.

God hides the truth for the seekers

God buries the truth,

For the seekers to find.

Only through the revelation of the Holy Spirit,

We can understand the deeper truth we wholeheartedly delight.

Then our intimacy with Him,

Is strengthened and enriched.

So, come to worship Him,

With straining eyes, a seeking heart, listening ears, praising lips

Immerse your soul into His word,

Until you see His light,

Brighter and warmer,

Filling up your spirit and mind.

Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law. (Psalm 119:18)

God’s voice encourages

The voice of the Lord gives strength,

Bless His people with peace. (Psalm 29:11)

So I will never say a condemning word.

Never. Ever.

For the devil condemns, but God saves.

Freedom in Jubilee Years, finally,

Jesus has come to rescue believers from condemning oppression.

No worry about abusing freedom,

For His Holy Spirit dwelling in believes,

Inspiring us to obey out of love, not fear,

To enjoy out of grace, not indulge out of sin.

So with Jesus Christ’s blood-shed granted freedom,

I choose to let God speak and encourage through my lips to build up,

Never agree with the devil to condemn and crush down.

主是一切

主的生命,是我的光,

主來,照我本像,愛我。

他是真光,安慰溫暖我心,

主是復活,是生命,

他就在我心中,

我是復活的生命,

新造的人。

我如勇士束腰,

單單尊主為大,

因祂全權掌管,

我的一生與永恆。

主是我的一切,又是一切的主,

主的權能托住萬有,

我靈安息。

Morning wine

Martha and I echo to each other in the spirit,

Our mouths overflow the living water from within,

Jesus Christ turns it to wine to fill us up with joy.

Like the much more forgiven lady,

Who loves Jesus more, wiping His feet with her tears and hair, pouring out her precious perfume,

So am I feeling bold and focusing on worship my Lord with my songs of thanksgiving and praise.

Like the woman, bringing her empty jars for the oil,

God’s anointing continuously flows into her jars one by one until He stops.

So is my praying, looking up to God, who can fill me up time after time,

As I meditate with focus on Himself, not on feeling of dread,

Nor on impossible things my eyes cannot see,

With His promise for me, seeking, asking and will find and receive.

Such delight shall be more satisfied to my spirit, After all the waiting in hope.

Do good from a clean heart

熱心に善を求める者は恵みを慕い求める。

Thank God for cleansing my heart,

So that I may desire doing good,

And asking God in adoration for His grace,

To be enabled to do good as He plans.

私の心を清めてくれた神様に感謝します。

だから、私は良いことをしたいと思うことができます。

私はそれをできるように神様に恵みを求めています。

(Proverbs 11:27)

Sit with the King

I am helped when my heart trusts in Him.

Thank God for lifting up my head,

Releasing me,

Freeing me out of prison,

Speaking kindness to me,

Giving me a seat of honor higher than any fame of the world,

Putting aside my prison clothes of sin,

Inviting me to sit and eat at His table,

Giving me what I need day after day until I go back to Heaven.

Did I do anything to earn His honor?

Not at all.

But He loves me just because He is love.

(Psalm 28, Jeremiah 52:31-34)

Lori’s black-eye doll

Lori texted me her recently collected doll,

Black hair, black eyes, with pink butterfly tie.

Lori collected so many dolls,

Sitting on the shelf.

I remember my grandpa gave me a  toy riffle instead of a doll.

My mom bought me a stuff animal dog.

I felt I didn’t like kids when I was young.

Thank God for giving me a daughter like a doll and showing me His love

As His baby girl.
