What is he made of?

I have a "walking partner", who walks with me in the park twice a week.

Her husband had cancer twice when he was a teenager, now he had a liver cancer after being cancer free for twenty years... This morning was their first chemo. But the husband went to work directly after the chemo. I was so shocked.

"What is he made of?" " He does not take a time to pity on himself?" "How can he just treat a chemo like a regular doctor appointment?"

His mom abandoned him and his two younger brothers when they were young. He did not finish high school but worked to raise his brothers. He and his wife now, adopting a hearing impaired half brother from his mom's second marriage to teach him read, write...

What is life to you?

To me at this moment, life is taking my husband by hand, gazing only at Jesus, not looking ahead or back, not left or right, making each step, even though it is on a broken road...

Treat others as a human being

Long time ago, a pastor consoled a person having psychological problem, later he thanked the pastor for treating him as a human being the first time in his life.

A disabled person was once asked why he likes to spend time with a group of Christians, he replied: because I was treated as a person.

Treat others as a human being, as they a creation of God too. Maybe their behaviors and belief systems do not deserve anybody treat them well but did any of the darkness in our lives deserve any of the God’s mercy and love?

Treat other person with respect and dignity, as they are treasures in God’s eye.

How many times, we treat people as objects, tools means subconsciously because we are already spent…

Treat others as a human being as God is.

Life is never....

How would you finish this sentence?

Life is never meant for us to live it on our own, but in indwelling partnership and dependence on the God who loves and gave himself up for me.

Where are you praying?

Have you wondered why someone prayed, heavenly power came down and situation turned around? But when we prayed, we even not sure if God has heard…

When you call some one, would you like to talk to him directly or just leaving a message on the answer machine…

Are you praying in spirit as the spirit desires or praying in the flesh, wishing things turn out as you plan?

Pray in the spirt. Make sure you are plugged into God when you pray.

How would you describe water?

Recently I felt life is more and more like water.

Have you found similarity in life?

Living everyday as if it is your last

Living everyday as if it is your last

It is not pessimistic. I tried and found out it actually had a positive impact on me.

I am not running around and take my daily life as a check list. I can take time to think, listen, observe, absorb etc. I would not treat conversations as a routine or even a waste of time but putting my heart to it, “what can I say to benefit her?” for it could be my last conversation with this person.

I take time to respond emails with deep care and feelings. I cook meals, clean the house with more effort and feeling.

I find out in thinking that this is the last day, I am less self-focused and shift more time and effort on the important things. At the end of the day, I felt more accomplished and satisfied. I decided to try it more, to make it a week, a month, until the thinking pattern grows into a habit…a life having right priorities everyday…A life actively prepared for the coming of the risen King!

Give it a try?
