Blessings 11/07

Thank you friends! I have told a couple people about current issues at work. Thanks for your prayers. They got answered by God. I have talked to my manager and the directions are clearer. I have also pull myself out of the pit with God's help. I am reorganizing my working life again. I will be more discipline and work hard and smart. I need to do a better job managing myself. It is very easy to be lazy and fell victim of bad self management. There is no one to blame but myself. Most managers at Intel are overloaded, the manager usually let you manage yourself and only intervene if you did a bad job or if you ask for help. Better ask for help before doing a bad job. Thanks again to you all with your prayers and blessings.

May the joy of the Lord be with you all!

God Bless, JC

Cat Sitting

I am honored to be a cat/house sitter for a month. For the next 1.5 month, regular routines would change and there might be some new insights. I will leave these to the Holy Spirit. I had been living alone for a long time, even somebody moved in has not changed the behavior. What would a cat do to me? Learn to take care of an animal is new. How did I usually take care of my friends? They might be nice and did not tell me I failed to take care of them correctly. What would a cat tell me.... Probably more than I would imagine.... Or may be nothing at all.... I would camp out in my friend's house a few days per week. May be that would trigger me to move closer to work? Hopefully, that wouldn't make me homesick. Or be a permanent house guest.... Just kidding. God, please keep me and the cat safe. Both houses too. Open my eyes to any insights you are trying to give me. Thank you Lord, and C&E giving me this chance to do something new. Enjoy your honeymoon, and may God keep you guys safe.

My co-worker's dad has cancer and in chemo therpy. He is working offsite at home now. May God help him take care of his parents while not too stress out with customer issues. May God give his dad the strength to endure the therapy. If it is Your will, resume his health.

Thank you God, my friends came back safely from Europe pilgrammage. They had a wonderful time.

As for myself. Thank you Lord for keeping me from a full fledge cold symptoms. This was tiring and sometimes work was sacrificed. I am back to normal today and thanks for keeping me healthy. Help me keep up on doing what is relavant. Work is just a way to use the gifts You gave me to help others. Please continue to help me do this work.

I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.- Psalm 3:5

Sleep Well!
In Christ, JC

10 月 21日 魚與熊掌

這豈是……買牛羊、僕婢的時候呢?(王下五 26)

牛羊、僕婢是當時社會成功的標記。就像約伯一樣,當聖經稱他為東方至大時,也就列出他所有的牛羊、僕婢的數目(伯一 3)。今日的基督教似乎也流行一種看法,就是如果你要榮耀神,見証有力,就要事業有成、學業有成、有財勢、有地位;以為這才能大大的榮耀神,說話就有人 聽、作事就具影響力。於是不少基督徒就致力於在社會中力爭上遊,以為一則可以為神增光彩,二則更有餘力去為聖工奉獻,一舉兩得。殊不知,勢力、才能從來不 是神要我們所倚靠,去成就神的事(參亞四 6)。保羅提醒我們,福音本是神的大能(羅一 16)。如果我們存這樣的心態,要為神去得世界,恐怕我們其實是同時愛上了世界和其上的事,愛父的心就不在我們裡面了(參約壹二 15)。弟兄姊妹,魚與熊掌是不能兼得的。

陳明斌

我 們若有財、有勢,很有可能愛上了世界 和其上的事,這只是一個危機,也不是必然。若愛天父在萬有之上,產業是天父的祝福,有什麼不對呢?我估計,最主要是不追隨,不倚靠勢力和才能,而是靠天主 而成就祂的旨意。怎樣愛天父?第一、要認識祂-讀聖經,聽神父牧師講道;第二、與祂溝通,祈禱,聆聽;第三、作祂喜悅的事,愛人如己是祂喜悅的。

願各位都有愛主愛人的心!以上是靠主耶穌之名!亞孟!

主祐,JC上

迷失

主,我迷失了,前路茫茫,不知應走那條 路才好,求你帶領。“你是道路、真理、生命。”“隨著你走過這死亡的蔭谷,我也不害怕,因為有你與我同在。”“我依恃雅威,呼求主助,祂聽到我的聲音,我 憂傷的呼喊傳入祂耳裡。”“我的仇敵太強大,但祂解救我脫離我的敵人”。感謝你的應許,求你賜給我智慧,使我緊緊隨著你,不再迷失。因主基督之名,亞孟!
