Love our neighbors even when we don't love them!
I called several people tonight. In Taiwan we call"caring calls".
This reminded me the past experiences when I was responsible for dialing regular caring call. I'm not a talkative person unless there is a "matching" topic, so it was hard to chat with someone I don't really know. And I don't like the feeling to find sth to talk about purposely and the "awkward silence". Besides, "caring call" should be dialed out of caring, not out of responsibility right? But what if I just don't have the love to care about them? what if I am just so tired and dry to make the phone calls? well, today God reminded me that I cannot always wait for the changes of my heart then step out. Action can also bring out the love!
Therefore, I'll keep caring for them no matter how I feel cos God is always the source of love! =)
This is also applicable in the relationship with God. Even though sometimes I don't love Him, I can still make the decision to establish the relationship with God. "I don't love you Lord! But I'm longing for the passion for the passion for you!" Yeah, love is not a feeling but a decision. When God seems distant and unreachable, I will always say He is AWSOME!!!

You give and take away
"We are stewards of whatever God gives us."
Last week my mom told me that my cousin and a good friend of my Dad have an rectum cancer. And then one thing bumped into my head,'Yeah, I know everything I have is a gift from God. But how would I react if God take it away? For example, I know that getting into medicine is a miracle. But if I have cancer or some diseases that disrupt my life and all my plans, or somehow God just takes it away, could I feel free to let it go?' To be true, I may not! well, it's such a difficult task to learn isn't it? I am a stweard to take care of whatever God has given me. Yeah, my life is not actually mine but His. However, I often forget that I don't OWN anything, I just take the best care of it that I can. hm...still have SOOOOOO many things to learn and to be changed.
"What do you have that God hasn't given you? And if all you have is from God why boast as though you have accomplished something on your own?" Not having this concept of stewardship is also the source of my pride. So Lord, be ruthless with me in revealing my selfish ambition and my lack of willingness to die to myself! Mould me even if I'm afraid of the uncomfortable process! Cleanse me even if it's so hard to let my sin go!
The closer you've drawn me, the more humble I feel.
