My Job

It is chinese new year soon. In the new semester, I had some new "jobs". I had been elected as the Culture Club’s chairman. Then I was the treasurer for my class. Wow, really need to be a responsible one. Lord, I need You.

The Reason the Lord was Not Disappointed

The ones who cried, “Hosanna”, to the Lord one day were the same ones who cried, Take Him away, the next day. The Lord was not discouraged or disappointed by them. He rejected in a hidden way all the excellent treatment from men. He would never have any direct relationship with His environment. His direct concern was God and His will. This is why His way in the world was not crooked. But our way in the world is crooked. Our Lord did not allow His friends to make His way crooked; He did not allow men’s praise to influence His pathway, nor did He allow the enemy’s opposition to change His journey.

Semester 2 for me in Training College

Holiday ended and time to go back to school again. In a twinkling of eye, it was one week. The first week is filled with excitement. I was choosen as the treasurer for our class. Wow, what a super heavy duty for me. I knew it won’t be easy for me, but I will try to be a responsible treasurer. In the new semester, I hope I will study harder than previous semester as there will be a final exam at the end of the year.

Lord, I need you more and more each day. Lord, I love you more and more each day. Thank you Lord.

Having a Mind to Suffer

Having a mind to suffer means that we are prepared before the Lord to suffer. It means that we are ready to suffer and that we choose the way of suffering. If the Lord does not allow suffering to come our way, that is His business. On our side, however, we are always ready for suffering. … The degree of our willingness to suffer determines the amount of spiritual work we will perform. If our mind to suffer is limited, our spiritual work will be limited, If our mind to suffer is limited, our blessing to others will be limited, and the result of our work will be limited as well.

The Prophesy for the Building up of the Church

Since to prophesy is to speak for the Lord and speak forth the Lord, that is, to minister Christ to others, which is main thing in the church meeting, prophesying requires the divine life to fill it as its content. Love is the excellent way to experience the divine life and make it the content of the gift of the prophecy for the building up of the church. Hence, we must pursue love and desire earnestly these greatest gifts.

Grow in Life unto Salvation

After regeneration the newborn babes need to feed on the milk of the holy Word. … This feeding is so that they may grow in life unto their daily salvation. Every day we need to be saved. This is because our attitude, the tone of our voice, and our spirit are not so right. Even the way we look at others is not so right. We need to be adjusted, to be saved from many things. We need to grow unto such a salvation. … We need a growth that results in salvation.

The Experience of Valleys and Hills

All the valleys are the experiences of the cross, the experiences of the death of Christ, and all the hills are the experiences of the Lord’s resurrection. A valley is the cross; a hill is the resurrection. We must be one who always has some trouble, some valley, but also one who is always on the hills, always in the experience of resurrection. Whenever there is a valley, there is a hill. Whenever you experience the death of the cross, you will experience the resurrection. The living waters flow forth from all these experiences.
