[Quote] Our danger is to water down God’s word to suit ourselves
Our danger is to water down God’s word to suit ourselves. God never fits His word to suit me; He fits me to suit His word. Oswald Chambers, Not Knowing Whither, 901 R
Marriage Quote from Bonhoeffer
Marriage is more than your love for each other. It has a higher dignity and power, for it is God’s holy ordinance, through which he wills to perpetuate the human race till the end of time. In your love you see only your two selves in the world, but in marriage you are a link […]
Jackie Pullinger’s sharing in GO2013
I found this video earlier this week and Wai Jia and I watched it together. We were both moved and learnt a lot regarding missions. A few key I learnt from the video: We can learn how to pray for healing and cast out demons. We need to be very intentional about missions. Are we […]
Coast
On my triathlon bike, I have a computer that measures my cadence, speed and various things. It also measures how long I pedal on my bike. So whenever I go for a long training ride, the time on my watch will measure the total time of my ride. The bike computer will measure the […]
A New Year to Follow the Lord

Then we talked about something else. For the longest time, I felt there’s something not right when it comes to using this line. What does […]
Being In Christ
I wrote this post a few weeks ago. It just took some time to publish it. Today’s morning prayer we studied Colossians 2:6-7. Our homework from yesterday was to bring an object that symbolize this passage. As each of us brought different items and explain to others what they stand for, someone brought this […]
Grandma
I lived in Hong Kong until I was eight before my family moved to Canada. Hong Kong has a special place in my heart. I have fond memories of my relatives and cousins gathering together during Chinese New Year and other holidays. For Christmas, I would stay at my grandparents (my mother’s side). They would […]
