watch and learn

“Watch and learn", that I always answer my kids when they ask question about “how to do this or that?”

And I should tell you more is that, “do it yourself and you'll truly learn it.”

christian counseling 聖經輔導學.doc

I’ve thinking to take the online class of Christian counseling. I don’t think, I can be qualified, not just the time and energy and everything. But I do find a useful link of it. I’ll take my time to study about it myself for now.

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=6&ved=0CEEQFjAF&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftcfc.twfc.org.tw%2Fc%2Fdocument_library%2Fget_file%3Fp_l_id%3D1744371%26folderId%3D1806348%26name%3DDLFE-37709.doc&ei=QnAwVNHlFobroAShtoGoCA&usg=AFQjCNE_UChAvOXn6TPuEEQKGY82EjsVyw&sig2=4dk-CBIAnR7VzRbXgreyjw

Actually I’m more concern about how to preventing the unfavorable things’ develop through Christianity.

Isaiah 以賽亞書9: 6

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
因 有 一 嬰 孩 為 我 們 而 生 ； 有 一 子 賜 給 我 們 。 政 權 必 擔 在 他 的 肩 頭 上 ； 他 名 稱 為 奇 妙 策 士 、 全 能 的 神 、 永 在 的 父 、 和 平 的 君 。

Ephesians 以 弗 所 書 3:20-21

20 Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

21 unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

 20 神 能 照 著 運 行 在 我 們 心 裡 的 大 力 充 充 足 足 的 成 就 一 切 ， 超 過 我 們 所 求 所 想 的 。

21 但 願 他 在 教 會 中 ， 並 在 基 督 耶 穌 裡 ， 得 著 榮 耀 ， 直 到 世 世 代 代 ， 永 永 遠 遠 。 阿 們 ！

Discourage Employees From Staying Late

Can you tell the differences between picture1, 2 and 3? The first picture is the fully equipment of merely one part of the company office of Heldergroen, the second picture, the deck is disappearing. And the third one, the rest of the chairs and everything are all hulled up to the ceiling.

Yes! This is real, what a marvelous way to discourage the hirelings to not to staying late.

Not just that at 6PM every night and the office turns into an open space for yoga, dancing, and other creative activities.

Work hard as possible, after works’ done, release all the pressures and go back to their lives outside the work, families, friends, habits, and exercises and so forth. We are human beings not machines after all. We all have plenty of things need to be done besides work, right?

With desks and office equipment out of the way, the space serves multiple functions at just about all times throughout the week, not just during weekday work hours.

That is a smart design; it turns the same spaces into a multifunction dimension.

Some videos that I found are interesting to share. The only thing is that some of them are kind of too long to sit still to watch them.

Eagles - Desperado

Desperado 

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zTRigub8BVg

http://sheetmusic.web44.net/SheetMusic/Eagles-Desperado.pdf 

When I first heard this song, I don’t know much about the meaning of it yet, I am attracted by the melody and the passions that the singer try to express. Then I try to read the lyrics word by word, sentence by sentence, paragraph by paragraph, it draws me to more thinking.

A wonderful song to share with, Desperado by Eagles, a touching one, and hope you’ll like it too. My goal for this week, learn it and share it by singing it along with bible story to my senior friends next week. 

A lot of times, we lost or we feel we can do it all by ourselves.

The love is near, but we try to look for the far one and we cannot get it.

We chase after vanities, money, status and so forth. We leave all the important things or people behind.

We think, we are different form any others, we set a high wall to separate from others.

There is always a lovely rainbow behind the rain.

Seize the time and do what you should do before it is too late.

Luke路 15:3-32

3-7 The Parable of  the Lost Sheep 牧人尋找一百隻羊中迷失的一隻

⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. 我告訴你們，一個罪人悔改，在天上也要這樣為他歡喜，較比為九十九個不用悔改的義人歡喜更大。」

8-10 The Parable of the Lost Coin 婦人尋找十個銀幣中遺失一枚的故事

¹⁰ In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” 我告訴你們，一個罪人悔改，在神的使者面前也是這樣為他歡喜。」

11-32 The Parable of the Lost Son 浪子回頭的故事

³¹ “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours.³² But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’” 31父親對他說：『兒啊！你常和我同在，我一切所有的都是你的；32只是你這個兄弟是死而復活、失而又得的，所以我們理當歡喜快樂。』」

Every single of us are unique and precious. You maybe the weakest sheep amongst all, you may feel like you are just a small coin, you probably ever done wrong before or feel that you are not worthy at all. But in our Lord's eyes, you are truly valuable. He is our shepherd, He will risk His own life to bring you back and all the others will cheer up all together when you are found. He is like the woman who lost one of her coin and tries hard to retrieve the small coin back. He is your Father cherishes you and gives the best and everything to you, whatever you may done unfit or sin before. If only you willing to repent to Him. He will love and accept you unconditionally.

Bible verse:

17 “When he came to his senses, 他醒悟過來

First line of the lyrics:

Desperado, why don’t you come to your sense?

   

noah's ark

Noah’s Ark Genesis 6:5—9:17

The full story description from the bible verses. Better read them thoroughly before the sharing.

This will make the sharing much funnier.

Biblical Noah's Ark Life-Size Replica Sails in the Netherlands

“Johan says that only about half the visitors were Christians, and that it would sometimes lead to great conversations.”

It was built by the Johan Huibers, Dutch creationist and millionaire building contractor, after he dreamt that Holland would be flooded once again.
He used the ancient measurement of the cubit - the length of a man's arm from the elbow to the middle fingertips, according to Biblical.
In Genesis, described the Ark as 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits. It took only him and his team of five for more than four years to complete.

He has filled it with a plastic menagerie of animals - also a few species of live birds, geese and roosters - to recreate the story of Noah for paying visitors and to make The Bible more 'touchable'.

The boat was constructed by welding the metal hulls of several old barges together and then using Scandinavian pine for the skin.

As Johan Huibers sees it, his full size replica ark is not only a message to unbelievers or Christians who doubt Genesis. It is a message to all Christians to do something with our faith. He says: “It is so important that we pass on our faith and what we have learned on to others, not keep it to ourselves. Even though you are not perfect yet, yes, even when you might miss the mark in many aspects, just put hands and feet to your Christianity and put it into practice.”

Exodus 4:10-13 出 埃 及 記 4:10-13

¹⁰ Moses said to the Lord, “Pardon your servant, Lord. I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue.” ¹¹ The Lord said to him, “Who gave human beings their mouths? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the Lord? ¹² Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say.” ¹³ But Moses said, “Pardon your servant, Lord. Please send someone else.”

¹⁰ 摩 西 對 耶 和 華 說 ： 主 阿 ， 我 素 日 不 是 能 言 的 人 ， 就 是 從 你 對 僕 人 說 話 以 後 ， 也 是 這 樣 。 我 本 是 拙 口 笨 舌 的 。¹¹ 耶 和 華 對 他 說 ： 誰 造 人 的 口 呢 ？ 誰 使 人 口 啞 、 耳 聾 、 目 明 、 眼 瞎 呢 ？ 豈 不 是 我 ─ 耶 和 華 麼 ？¹² 現 在 去 罷 ， 我 必 賜 你 口 才 ， 指 教 你 所 當 說 的 話 。¹³ 摩 西 說 ： 主 阿 ， 你 願 意 打 發 誰 ， 就 打 發 誰 去 罷 ！
