出生入死
Dear all,
A cloudy day ha!
The Japanese nuclear crisis is being worse, please pray hard for them.
Try to bring an umbrella, although I do not think it can save you from radioactivity/ radiation.
Today join ministry QT @8:00 am , A core, come late as long time no travel at this time, quite underestimate the busy traffic.
Read the QT material today, which is Acts 16.
It make me curious that why Luke and Timothy was not jailed.
And another question in my heart is that why Paul ask the ghost to come out because he "become so troubled", I recall when I first read this when I was young, I think he do so because he cannot control his temper.
However, these two questions can be discussed side-way.
Anyway, because of these, God has done another miracles to save the jailer's family. And I am inspired by Silas has been hit together and did not blame Paul for the incidents.
This is what the relationship talk about in today's QT material.
Bear the persecusion together.
I think most likely Timonthy and Luke was trying to save them from outside.
(Maybe because they are not Jews, so that the accuse does not refer to them)
When thinking of the second questions, I think of many bros and sisters (esp. Campus) who face different similar situation with me and continue to be faithful to God.
There are so many Pauls in my life, he teach me God's word and working them out so that I can learn and follow.
Kenneth is always my examples of going out by love and faith.
Tom is always the one with well planning.
AI has a very proactive heart to go and serve........
And for the mission part, Steve has asked us to think of 3 things to Pray for the ShineR project
This is actually the mission we are doing to share God with the people involved. :]
Hope we are have the unified heart to run for God (行完我的路程) ACTS 20:24
Hope you can also find your Silas, Paul and Timonthy in your life, too.
Do something great with your bros/sisters. Share your convictions, your life, your weakness and the most important, your dreams.
I remember a quote:
" By showing your strength, you get honors and respect;
But by showing your weaknesses, you get love and acceptance,
this is what every human longing for"
Silas is a fd who can bear and accept Paul's mistakes (whether it is a mistakes or actually God's plan are unknown), hope you get someone in your life, and of course thx God for teaching us grace.
Cheers,
Andy
