<Heart of worship>
When the music fades
All is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless Your heart
I bring you more than a
song
For a song in itself
Is not what you have required
You search much deeper
within
Through the way things
appear
You're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about you
It's all about you, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the
thing I've made it
When it's all about you
It's all about you, Jesus
King of endless worth
No one could express
How much you deserve
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is yours
Every single breath
To listen
to this good song:

用這本書做禱告，不錯！
「宣告神的名」
「我們應當如此行」百萬小時萬民禱告運動

Dwell on God's promises,
not our problems.
我知誰掌管明天
1。我不知明天的道路，每一天只為主活，
我不借明天的太陽，因明天或許陰暗，
我不要為將來憂慮，因為我信主的應許，
我今天要與主同行，因他知前面如何。
副歌：有許多未來的事情，我現在不能識透，
但我知誰掌管明天，我也知誰牽我手。
2。每一步愈走愈光明，像攀登黃金階級，
每重擔愈挑愈輕省，每朵云披上銀衣，
在那里陽光常普照，在那里沒有眼淚，
在美麗彩虹的盡頭，眾山嶺與天相連。
3。我不知明天的道路，或遭遇生活苦楚，
但那位養活麻雀者，他必然也看顧我，
他是我旅途的良伴，或經過水火之災，
但救主必與我同在，他寶血把我遮蓋。
I Know Who Holds Tomorrow
I don't know about
tomorrow,
I just live from day
to day.
I don't borrow from
it's sunshine,
For it's skies may
turn to gray.
I don't worry o'er
the future,
For I know what Jesus
said,
And today I'll walk
beside Him,
For He knows what
is ahead.
Refrain:
Many things about tomorrow,
I don't seem to understand;
But I know Who holds
tomorrow,
And
I know Who holds my hand.
Ev'ry step is getting
brighter,
As the golden stairs
I climb;
Ev'ry burden's getting
lighter;
Ev'ry cloud is silver
lined.
There the sun is always
shining,
There no tear will
dim the eyes,
At the ending of the
rainbow,
Where the mountains
touch the sky.
It may bring me poverty;
But the One Who feeds
the sparrow,
Is the One Who stands
by me.
And the path that
be my portion,
May be through the
flame or flood,
But His presence goes
before me,
And I'm covered with
His blood.

商場內有小丑哥哥為小孩扭氣球，鸚鵡、花、小鳥必必、槍、劍、老鼠……，在孩子手中都突然變得好有生氣。拿氣球的孩子很乖，帶著期待的心情，從小丑哥哥手上接過氣球，無論是什麼造型，他們也快樂地拿著離開。
我為小丑哥哥拍照，他也為我扭了隻小熊。可惜，在回家路上，小熊不慎碰到欄杆，耳朵變了形。
有沒有人懂得修理氣球？
想起那年，野明也為我扭了隻站在圈上的老鼠；那年，寫過有關氣球的詩。

越來越覺得自己的日記不好看，不及別人的吸引。無辦法啦，這就是我，喜歡寫隱晦網上日記的我。
網上太陽報有則新聞，有個女子搞了個網站，叫人捐錢給她隆胸（由34吋增大至36吋）。她已成功籌到4500美元。（如果這筆錢用來賙濟窮人更有意思啦！）
中午和同事飲茶時，「都市閒情」正有兩位女子比賽唱歌和演戲。幾位男同事取笑她們的樣貌。
到底什麼是美？自認是靚仔靚女的人是自信、自負還是在撒謊？
在「疫情嚴峻」的情況下，我……
今日過得異度充實，雖然照常地上班下班，但想到世上許多人在挨餓、受苦，又想到自己的飽足、幸福，我以感恩的心過了平凡的一天。
意外地收Fenny的電郵，她給以下有意思的話︰
１。當我們每日有新鮮空氣，而又不去珍惜的時候，我們今天呼吸困難
２。當我們有書讀有學校返，而又不去珍惜的時候，我們今天全校停課
３。當我們自由自在地生活，而又不去珍惜的時候，我們今天被困屋內
４。當我們自由地擁抱親人，而又不去珍惜的時候，我們今天彼此隔離
５。當我們能與別人握握手，而又不去珍惜的時候，我們今天害怕接觸
６。當我們隨時能夠返教會，而又不去珍惜的時候，我們今天取消聚會
今天若大家忘記了我們慈愛的天父一點一滴的恩典，盼望大家能回到上帝的身邊、尋求上帝的心意。我們每一日都為著生活而忙錄，但別忘記，我們的生活都不是必然的，不是永恆的。只有在上帝的國度裏才能得著永恆。

告訴傷心人一個故事︰
A man thought that his cross on his back is very
heavy. He asked Jesus to give him another cross. Jesus led him to a room
with crosses.
A man saw Mary's cross and thought, "Mary is a pretty girl. She has
loving parents and a stable relationship with her boyfriend. Her cross
must be light. Let me take hers."But when he put it on his back, he felt
it very heavy.
Jesus then told him, "You only see Mary's outward side. She has to
deal with her trouble boss and she is suffering from chronic pain in her
body."Later, the man saw John's cross and thought, "John is humorous
and always laughs. His cross must be light too."
But when he put it on his back, he felt it heavy. He tried many others.
At last, he found one, which was his cross originally on his back. Jesus
said若有人要跟從我、就當捨己、背起他的十字架來跟從我。Everyone has his cross. I am learning to accept
my lot though it's hard to do so.
如果這個十字架不在背上，而是在臉上，這個十字架就更重了。

Title: Faith Is Holding Out Your Hand
Author: Elisabeth Elliot
Source: A Lamp For My Feet
Faith Is Holding Out Your Hand
Sometimes when I was a child my mother or father would say,"Shut
your eyes and hold out your hand." That was the promise of some lovely
surprise. I trusted them, so I shut my eyes instantly and held out my
hand. Whatever they were going to give me I was ready to take. So it
should be in our trust of our heavenly Father. Faith
is the willingness to receive whatever He wants to give, or the willingness
not to have what He does not want to give.
I am content to be and have what in Thy heart
I am meant to be and have.
(George MacDonald, Diary of an Old Soul)
From the greatest of all gifts, salvation in Christ, to
the material blessings of any ordinary day (hot water, a pair of
legs that work, a cup of coffee, a job to do and strength to do it),
every good gift comes down from the Father of Lights. Every one of them
is to be received glady and, like gifts people give us, with thanks.
Sometimes we want things we were
not meant to have. Because He loves us, the Father says no. Faith
trusts that no. Faith is willing not to have what God is not willing
to give. Furthermore, faith does not insist upon an explanation. It
is enough to know his promise to give what is good--He knows so much
more about that than we do.

若我旁邊的人在受苦,而我竟不覺察,因為敏感之靈不在我裡面,那我就還是絲毫不懂加略山的愛.
若我很容易生別人的氣,若我滿足於只維持一種冷淡,不友誼的關係,雖然明明有可能恢復真正的友誼,那我就還是絲毫不懂加略山的愛.
若我容縱自己,讓自己舒適的陶醉在自憐與自我同情中:若我不靠神的恩典學習堅忍不撓的精神,那我就還是絲毫不懂加略山的愛.
當我已為很真誠地為某一件事情禱告之後得到一個我沒有預想到的答覆，而我退縮著不願接受；若我主要求我背負的擔子不也是我心中的選擇，而我在裡面煩焦，不歡迎祂的旨意，那我就還是絲毫不懂加略山的愛。

Title: Detours
Author: Elisabeth Elliot
Source: A Lamp For My Feet
Detours
When Pharaoh let the people go, "God did not guide
them by the road towards the Philistines, though that way was the
shortest.... God made them go round by way of the wilderness towards
the Red Sea" (Ex 13: 17, 18 NEB).
The direct route would save time as well as wear and
tear on the people, but God had something infinitely more important
than economics in mind--He wanted the people to be able to sing
the song of praise of chapter 15--"The Lord is my refuge and my defence...my
deliverer. He is my God and I will glorify Him; He is my father's God
and I will exalt Him" (Ex 15:2 NEB). They sang this song because they
had firsthand experience of God's power and deliverance. Pursued by
all the chariots and horses, cavalry and infantry of Egypt, they had
passed through the Red Sea in safety and seen the enemy drowned. They
would have missed this glorious lesson if they had taken the short road.
When we are puzzled by
delays and detours, let us think about the great purpose of life:
to glorify God. The lessons He wants to teach us "in the wilderness"
are priceless means of providing us with a song we could not otherwise
have sung: "In Thy constant love Thou hast led the people!" (Ex 15:13).

84:5 靠你有力量、心中想往錫安大道的，這人便為有福！
84:6 他們經過流淚谷，叫這谷變為泉源之地，並有秋雨之福蓋滿了全谷。
84:7 他們行走，力上加力，各人到錫安朝見 神。
84:11 因為耶和華 神是日頭，是盾牌，要賜下恩惠和榮耀。他未嘗留下一樣好處不給那些行動正直的人。
84:12 萬軍之耶和華啊，倚靠你的人便為有福！
5 Blessed are those
whose strength is in you,
who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.
6 As they pass through the Valley
of Baca, they make it a place of springs;
the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
7 They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before God in Zion.
11 For the LORD God is a sun
and shield; the LORD bestows favor and
honor; no good thing does he withhold
from those whose walk is blameless.
12 O LORD Almighty, blessed
is the man who trusts in you.

今日突然想起許多年前第一次參加福音營的團歌。當年的主題是「一生至寶」。回想，當我找到耶穌為我救主，這真是我一生至寶。
<我已找到快樂的途徑>
人類每天切心尋求，日光下的新事，
但我已尋到生命路，正確愉快完美。
我已找到快樂的途徑，我已找到歡欣之路，
我已找到如何除憂傷，這是完美純真的喜樂。
我已找到賜福的泉源，我已找到生命之道；
當我找到耶穌為我救主，這是我一生至寶。
我已找到無價珍珠，永遠長存美好；
藉著救主偉大犧牲，我得著這珍寶。
我已找到快樂的途徑，我已找到歡欣之路，
我已找到如何除憂傷，這是完美純真的喜樂。
我已找到賜福的泉源，我已找到生命之道；
當我找到耶穌為我救主，這是我一生至寶。

在這裡天天享繁榮，試問從前誰會預測；
靜悄悄三兩破漁船，勤勞做工不計雨或晴。
經過夏秋冬，風季縱無情，轉眼叢林油然茂生；
在這裡感歎天錯愛，原來根已種植土裡。
憑信與愛捨己為人群，能戰勝懼怕困惑；
齊獻上信心、忠心、熱誠，明日燦爛共同創。
讓這裡開拓新面貌，不怕徬徨輿論入侵；
盡你我憂國愛民情，尋求樹起香港新里程。
努力共抵擋風雨再來臨，不怕雷鳴搖撼四方；
願到處擁戴真與美：祈求天國遍植心裡。
願這裡千百信徒們，抵抗洪流勤讀聖經；
遇試探克勝到黎明，祈求上主看顧賜太平。
協力做見證，矢志不離群，守信虔誠行道熱心；
願世界喜見光照遍，齊來宣講盼望安慰。
