9/11

Nearly 3,000 people died when hijacked jets crashed into the towers, including firefighters and the people who worked there. It’s 12 years ago when this happened.

And I still can remember that I was pregnant with my second child, he was born 11 days after. Those 11 days seems like years to me at that time. I was terrified, because they said that they are going to have a second attack. Our state is one of the states that they target. They also said it will have a toxic gas attack. During that period of time, I often talk to the child inside me, please don’t come out, yet, stay as long as you can. Because in my mind I think that if the attack occur, I still be able to carry him to the save place. And if he was born before the attach, how am I going to take care of him and my older one all together. What if he cries when we were hiding from the terrorists?

Every year this day, 9/11, I thought about that. We survive, I have a happy child. I give thanks to the LORD for protecting us. But feel sorrow for those who lost their lives, their love ones. Especially for those who sacrifice their lives to save others. And some of them suffer some sickness because that incident.

Wish there’s always peace between human beings. Everyone should have a kind and joy heart.

observations

Be observe is a good habit. I don’t mean that you have to observe others’ motions or memorize what they do in detail. What I mean is stay alert with the people or the things going on around you. That can train your sense of awareness and memory. And sometimes that may save yourself or others in some ways.

rabbits - changes

Since our 2 new members, rabbits come to our home. I have some changes. I write my blog a lot more often and I have a lot more things that I can write about. I stay away from TV or computer more; I stay out a lot to be with them. I talk to them, observe them, sometimes I pray, I sing or just stay quite with them. And that also makes me do some more exercises, because I need to go in and out of the house a lot.

urgent prayer request

The past Tuesday my friend supposed to have a surgery for the stomach cancer. The test report said that her cancer is at the early stage so with a simple surgery should do the job. But it turned out that it’s a totally opposite result, it cannot be surgery. Now the doctor asks her to have chemo therapy. Luckily for the chemo therapy, she doesn’t need to go to hospital; she can have a small machine inside her for 48 hours to inject the medicine into her body.

She is such a lovely lady always think about others instead of herself. She pray, help for others. We thank LORD to have her as a friend, and give her such a kind heart.

 Now she really needs our support, I pray for her. And also plan to visit her, maybe sing some songs for her. Hoping that her families and friends won’t stumble because her sickness. And pray that she will have the enough energy to fight the sickness. And Holy Spirit will be with her, her families, and the entire medical group that work with her.

Oh! LORD, YOU ARE THE KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS; YOU ARE THE HEALER, AND THE COMFORTER.

friend's son

Today I finally get to have one of my friend’s sons to go to the Christian meeting for college students. Hope it’ll help him to back in track and won’t hate me or his mom to kind of force him to go. Hope he will like the group meeting and go regularly.

This friend is our family long term friend. We kind of support each when there’s a need.  But mostly are her families giving us helps in a lot of different way. One thing a specially remember is, we used to have our fellowship meeting in her house. They are not nice to open their home for us to come. Their kids were babysitting our kids. That’s how I so appreciate them. It’s really not easy when older kids willing help on a bunch of younger kids at teenage age.

Romans 8:28

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

hot!

Lately the weather is so hot. It’s over 100 degrees. But we all will survive.

Because that heat, it makes me want eat less and drink more water. Maybe that’s good for lose some pounds now.

Diana Nyad completes historic swim from Cuba to Florida

Diana Nyad completes historic swim from Cuba to Florida. She is a 64 years old lady who fulfills her dream 35 years ago that she dreams about. And it’s her 5^th try.

As soon as she arrives the shore, she gives out 3 messages to the crowds. The following are the 3 messages. “One is, we should never, ever give up. Two is, you're never too old to chase your dream. Three is, it looks like a solitary sport, but it is a team,"

Often time people lost their dreams as soon as they grew up. You may have a lot of basic needs for the life needed to be completed right away. You may think that I’m too old to have a dream. And knowing that you are never alone, there is always someone there for you. Even when you are physically alone, GOD is always there with you; HE will never give up on you or forget about you.
