Lord do something ...
"Li XX, 10, screams after her left leg was amputated to rescue her from the ruins of a collapsed building at Miaoba primary school in earthquake-hit Beichuan county, about 99 miles northeast of the epicenter at Wenchuan county, Sichuan Province, May 15, 2008"
Lord, please have mercy on this place, show your kindness and grace and miracles, you are the God who creates and destroys, you gives and takes ... you are the one in control and only you can heal and give them life - only your cross, the power of your cross can ease their pains. Many of them have never heard of you and when they died many of them go to hell. Be with them, and even in this times of great troubles and difficulties, when their hearts cry out to you, have mercy on them ...
"A mother cries as she covers the body of her son who was killed when his school collapsed in the earthquake-hit township of Hanwang, in Mianzhu city north of Chengdu, Sichuan Province May 16, 2008"
"Most of the students killed when Wufu's school collapsed were only children, ..."
All the tears, all the broken hearts, all the unbearable pains ...
"神 要 擦 去 他 們 一 切 的 眼 淚 ． 不 再 有 死 亡 、 也 不 再 有 悲 哀 、 哭 號 、 疼 痛 、 因 為 以 前 的 事 都 過 去 了 。" (Revelation 21:4)

Love comes softly
I would probably never stay watching this episode in the Hallmark channel if we still have the basic comcast plan (instead of what we have now - the limited basic - so we only have a few channels to worry about). It isn't a very "hollywood" movie but it is simple and meaningful and some of the lines are quite inspiring ... like some plain chicken soup without MSG.
I only watched second half of the movie and didn't know the whole story ... but there is a woman Marty who somehow got pregnant and (lost her wagon?) then stayed with a man she doesn't quite know (hmm ... sounds like I am making up the story). But anyhow she developed a good relationship with the man's daughter, despite the fact that she was raised up in city and that girl spent her whole life in a remote farm. The setting is somewhere in the Rocky mountain where you can imagine horses and cows are everywhere, basic living conditions and very very few people around.
It is all about the change of Marty's perspective of life, love and faith. She questioned about her own fate, she doubt God's faithfulness, she was annoyed by bad things that keep happening to her life and also to those people she is connected to. Many questions unanswered. One day when that man (clark?)'s barn got burnt and he lost his horses, cows etc., Marty was brought to the point that she doesn't believe in prayers (when Clark told her that everything would be fine as God always answered prayers) - then Clark brought her to Church - which is actually an open area with a breathtaking view of mountains and rivers. then ...
"the truth of God's love is not about not allowing bad things to happen, it is about the promise that He will be there when they do"
Well Marty has to go back to where she belongs, at least she thought. So she left a note (a hint) in Clark's bible and was expecting he would do something to keep her from leaving. As much as life is complicated by random instances, the note dropped on the floor from the bible ... so he sent her away to the town where Marty would take a wagon back home ...
"A woman has to be crazy to stay in this place, or, in love" - inside the wagon an woman rationalize her decision to leave. "Horrible storm ..."
Then as you might expect a man is after the woman he loves, so Clark ride his horse to catch up Marty after he finally picked up the note from under his bed - right after he knee down and prayed to God to accept that fact that He gave and He had taken away...
"There has to be a reason for me to stay" said Marty. "because I love you" said Clark. "The reason for me to stay is because I love you" said Marty.
"Sometimes love is like fireworks, but oftentimes love comes softly" ... an old lady ... don't know her relationship with Marty though.
If you are tired of watching those action intensive channels (like FX ?), this is a good one to go for.

Sleep
Hard to describe how it feels to have gone to bed before 2am first time ever since last week. Crazy schedule, tax, IVs, tests ... serious shortage of sleep really slows down my responses to the outside world - email, phone, IM, news ... But glad that finally there is a break (but next week ... who knows) and I can sleeeeeeeeep lor!!!
I love my bed, my dreams, and the time that I don't need to stare at the mon.
And thank God, all the brothers/sisters that prayed for me, and ppl who have been putting up with my slow responses :=)
Oh, it's raining again ... 100% natural background music for a good sleep.

夏雪
晚上,下雪了。片片的雪花,灑落在微黃的燈光下 , 像不斷隨落的星空 ,很美麗,很祥和。關了燈,看箸白色的屋頂,枯枝上結滿的雪花,感覺像在童話世界中。聽箸"永遠尊貴" - 我獻上感謝 ... 沒有想到在三月底的黑夜中,可以在下雪的晚上敬拜他… 完全的降服 ,完全的藏身在生命的源頭… 突然覺得永恆很接近...
盼望這一刻不會完結…
"充滿我,潔淨我 ,在你寶座前有生命水湧流 ,更新醫治我"

燈影,遠去了…
自從"華人之光" ( 一種在這 裡非常流行的企燈)不再照亮後, 房間裡就只剩下衣廚裡的白光燈… 每次晚上工作時, 都好像回到七十年代粵語長片中,白燕與張抹柔在板間房中車衣 ( 男的通常在爬格子 ,然後咳 到噴血… )的情節… 老土的橋段,卻是活生生的寫照...我現在還不是在幽暗的光線下 “趕貨" 嗎?
每次習慣性地推動企燈的開關, 然後發現還是一片柒黑的感覺, 就好像在提醒自己 - it won't last forever ...
燈光有明滅,故事也有轉折。下一章,不知如何開始…
