Justine的異國喵言喵語

其實從搬入小鎮之後，我好像一直都有所抱怨
不喜歡這個、不喜歡那個
一切都是因為跟小城有了比較
不管是生活還是學業，總覺得在這兒的我就是不快樂...

Jeremiah 31:3

The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying:
"I have loved you with an everlasting love;
I have drawn you with loving-kindness."

古時，耶和華向以色列顯現，說：

Psalm 42:11

Why are you downcast, O my soul?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God
for I will yet praise Him

我們的確是沒有預知未來的能力

當我還在為拿到這裡的ADMISSION而開心的時候，
誰能知道其實上帝為我鋪陳好了另外一條更美麗的道路？！

從四月到現在，一直在為了該去哪間學校念博士班而煩惱

呵呵，好消息！

我拿到Ph.D Admission了，真開心！
感謝主為我預備一切美好！
感謝主願意把我留在這裡讓我繼續為國際學生做更多事工！
感謝大家幫我禱告！

連續兩個星期，Pastor Chris 講的都深扣我心。

記得以前還不是基督徒的時候，我非常地害怕別人來對我傳教，因為以前每每看到電線桿上貼的標語都是世界末日要到了、神要審判世人等恐怖的標語。但是感謝主，祂真的有祂的安排，在我最不順利的時候，安排了祂的使者來到我的身邊，帶領我、引導我、並且把我帶到祂美好的地上的家，讓我有正確的教導，讓我能夠重新認識祂，讓我知道神愛世人而不是要來審判我們！

Pastor Chris emphasized that God loves us just becuase He loves us!! Yes! It's that simple!! We love others because of some reasons. We love our friends becasue we can share our sorrow and joy.  We love our spouse because he/ she is adorable or some other reasons.  However, God loves us just because He loves us!! Can you imagine that? 

This week, pastor Chris talked another important issue with a very interesting example.  Almost every appliance in the house will make the "beep"sound when they are done.  The microwave beeps, the oven beeps, and the washing machine beesp too.  All the beeping sounds keep telling us not to forget we have something in the microwave, in the oven, or in the waching machine.  We shouldn't forget that.  We shouldn't forget God too!!  He is always with us.  We need to think about His words and Him more in our daily life.  Most of the time, we are attracted by the things we see and ignore God.  However, everything comes from God.  My wisdom comes from God so that I can study hard.  When I have difficulties in understanding the materials, I asked for God's wisdom. How can I forget Him when I understadn the material or complete a task?  We need to remind ourselves that we shouldn't forget God!!

My Lord, thank you!!
