I pray that I could be strong in him despite of uncertainties and hardship. And to have the coverage in him to face the darkness. With hope and faith that in me he is accompanying for the challenges. And I am a beloved boy of him.
2 Corinthians 4:8-12
New International Version (NIV)
8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body. 12 So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.歌 林 多 後 書 4:8-12
Chinese Union Version (Traditional) (CUV)
8 我 們 四 面 受 敵 ， 卻 不 被 困 住 ； 心 裡 作 難 ， 卻 不 至 失 望 ；9 遭 逼 迫 ， 卻 不 被 丟 棄 ； 打 倒 了 ， 卻 不 至 死 亡 。 10 身 上 常 帶 著 耶 穌 的 死 ， 使 耶 穌 的 生 也 顯 明 在 我 們 身 上 。 11 因 為 我 們 這 活 著 的 人 是 常 為 耶 穌 被 交 於 死 地 ， 使 耶 穌 的 生 在 我 們 這 必 死 的 身 上 顯 明 出 來 。 12 這 樣 看 來 ， 死 是 在 我 們 身 上 發 動 ， 生 卻 在 你 們 身 上 發 動 。

Spirit Song
O let the Son of God enfold You
With His Spirit and His love
Let Him fill your heart and satisfy your soul
O let Him have those things that hold You
And His Spirit like a dove
Will descend upon your life
And make you whole
(chorus)
Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill Your Lambs
Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill Your Lambs
O come and sing this song with gladness
As your hearts are filled with joy
Lift your hands in sweet surrender
To His name
O give Him all your tears and sadness
Give Him all your years of pain
And you'll enter into life
In Jesus' name

Reflections & Notes for "Sabbath: Restoring the Sacred Rhythm of Rest"
This is a book which Henri Nouwen extracts part of the text and place them in between his paragraphs as reference in "Home Tonight: Further Reflections on the Parable of the Prodigal Son". Basically the book I bought is "audible" version on my kindle reader because no text version on kindle is available. But I enjoyed the audible version very much - I could switch off some lights in my room, close my eyes, hears and thinks of the book contents when text is read.
Almost finishing Part II, I had a thought that I should write down the inspiring points here for myself.
Part II
- Modern world emphasis on productivity and achievement. One's time are traded with money for higher productivity. And that money is used to fulfill desires and gives happiness
- Desire will grow and will re-visit you - 'happiness' brought to you isn't last very long, and isn't real when you go deep into that 'happiness'.
- Sabbath allows you to sink into real happiness by putting aside one's worries, desires and responsibilities
Part III
- consecrate every day by mindfulness and belief that everyday is blessed through meditation and prayer
- treat ourselves a finder on what we have and enjoy in sabbath, not a seeker that always need to go deeper which we may have already find
- finder - a person who finds something 發現者
- seeker - a person who is trying to find or get the thing mentioned 尋找者
- Take care with material possessions because each item receives our tiny portion of care which makes time to consecrate less and less
- choose a quiet place and allow heart and mind to speak aloud things which one need for forgiveness, the week begins to "dissolve" when you speak the truth no matter what you did before Sabbath in order to receive the blessing, mindfulness, grace and love

風的日夜 - 程理高
風的日夜 - 程理高
當我初次感覺到痛悲 當我初次感到被遺棄
正是人生應該最快樂年代初次想到跨過山與海 初次想去真正擁有戀愛
可惜我沒法承載 始終也沒法塗去悲哀每一天可知怎去度過 這種感覺
獨個子跟人海比拚 可怕顫驚你可否跟我輕輕說 不需驚怕
讓我可一再跟你過渡歲月 再去玩笑nice song. touching my chord lines, moving from a closed thus lonely, wounded and hollow life to a open, restored, cured and resurrected life. forgave the imperfect of human nature of his father who abandoned him when he was small.

靜思
Album "ZiONNOiZ 2" released in May 2000 - 11 years from now! I used to listen these songs frequently. A brother shared his thoughts on ZOiNNOiZ and this created an impulse to listen the CD again.
靜思 ZiONNOiZ 2
讓我思想 讓我安靜 重拾你話語的感應
我曾追追趕趕 那熱熾的生命 難找一剎安寧
就讓今天 叫我更豐盛 全因我願細心傾聽
那曾冰封的心 卻被你再溶掉了 耶穌 能為你作什麼
不經不覺已磋跎 年少昔許多
求你原諒我不把這顆心好好的交托 靈魂暗處有很多痛楚
此刻把這心給你 求你再激勵我
認真的相信 來活出新的我
God - my thought, my payer.
Lifetime
