0154. Days With Many Things Came

I keep having something happening after I returned from my vacation at Vancouver. I sent my computer to fix because hard drive has broken track last month. Praise the Lord, it was broken at OS, not data sectors. Then I suddenly couldn't find my flash drive which has tax return information. I found it later that day after scaring myself. Computer at work was not running smoothly last week. Some files couldn't access properly. So I sent to MIS for check and the result is the same as my computer, broken tracks. This morning, I couldn't find my wallet, which also have my employee ID. I still have no clue where it is. If I couldn't find the wallet, I am losing NT$3000. Also after my vacation, there is no break in my work. I smell work direction change two weeks ago. Even though it is not confirmed yet, we are getting busier than before.

I remember Pastor Tsao said a few weeks ago, that God always let him very busy at certain period of time, like everything comes all at same time. Maybe I am in the same situation as well. I admit that I am feeling low recently. I think it is because lots of work to do and also affected by someone else. I was affected by our team leader, who is under great pressure. I didn't deal with this feeling low. All I focus was finishing work early to go home. Today, I was sharing with a sister. She reminded me to be still in the Lord. Yes, be still, what I need to practice right now.

0153. 40 Years

I went to The King's Singers concert last night. I had their collection CD last year through someone else. Their songs are from classical to pop. Their voices are nice. So I didn't want to miss their concerts in Taipei this year! They have two concerts in Taipei this year, with different songs. I want to attend both but I have to give up the Jazz I want to hear since I have church meeting at same time. I am glad at least I still have a chance to watch live concert. Even though this is only pure human voices, they still have funny physical acts based on the songs they sang. Those acts made us laugh. They also surprise us by singing Chinese songs, though it is not completed understood what they are singing.

I notice that they are a 40-years-old vocal group while reading their story. This year happens to be their 40th year. Even thought they do have member change several times, but a 40-years-old pop group is very rare in the history. This reminds me that ShenKun Church just celebrated their 40th year and Grandma Taylor spent her 40th year in ShenKun as well. Moses' three 40 years also pop into my mind. I believe Moses' last 40 years and Grandma Taylor's 40 years are getting God's approval. Moses was very humble in his last 40 years, like a sheep-warrior. He was totally obedient to God, which is why he had a victorious life. Grandma Taylor gives her best time of life to God and faithfully stays in ShenKun 40 years. I believe those are make God smile.

The same 40 years but different rewards. Just what said in the "Purpose Driven Life", we must treat the days on earth is a guest so we will not too attach to whatever on earth. This is what I need to ponder on more deeply.

0152. [Music Share] Total Priase

This is another song I have been listening a lot, Total Praise. This version is sang by Avalon. I am not sure this is a traditional hymn but I can not help to keep listen over and over again though the words are simple. Maybe this is because I need those words lately :)

Total Praise

Lord, I will lift, mine eyes to the hills
Knowing my help is coming from You
Your peace, You give me in time of the storm

You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to You

Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
