Childhood

Sometimes, I wish I could go back to my childhood. Growing up with two sisters and girl cousins, we had so much fun together. We laughed so hard with silly things. Watching Toby and Carrie's girls just reminded me so much of my childhood. And it made me to think how free they are. All the sudden, I am at the age with full of responsibilities and worries. So I felt like I am so thankful than any other time for Jesus who carries my burden and worries. Maybe that is why, the Truth said we should come like child.

No one can stop

Through our seasons and desires, we do certain things and we desire certain things. Yes, I do desire for seafood to eat like I used to eat all the time as I was growing up. For Zion, it is all about climbing now. He does not stop. And he finds so much joy in that. After he climbs up to the chair, he always gets excited and smiles. Who can stop us?

We shall see God

I have been really enjoying the book, "We shall See God" by Charles Spurgeon. It has been giving me such a perspective of heaven and of eternal life that God wants me to have even though I live on this earth. Things that are surrounded seems so beautiful in nature. I do so longing for the day of Jesus' return yet so humbled by God's grace that has been displayed that I see with my physical eyes.
I want to quote some words that touched me.

It says,
    Heaven is the place of fellowship with God, and this is a blessed feature in its joy. But in this we are now participants for "indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ" (1John 1:3). The fellowship of the Holy Spirit is with us all. It is our joy and our delight.

  Having communion with the triune God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - We are uplifted and sanctified, and it is appropriate that the will of the Lord should be done by us on Earth as it is in Haven (Matthew 6:11).

  It is ours to be in the forefront in daily conflict with sin and Satan, and at the same time it is ours to bring up the rear, battling with the pursuing foe. God help us, since we are honored with so rare a sphere, to do his will on Earth as it is done in Heaven.

  Then you say, "But Heaven is the place of overflowing joy." Yes, and have you no joy even now? A saint who lives near to God is so truly blessed that he will not be much astonished when he enters Heaven. He will be surprised to behold its glories more clearly, but he will have the same reason for delight as he possesses today. We live below the same life which we shall live above, for we are made alive below the same security. Joy! Do you not know it? Your Lord says, "My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full" not be fuller; you will be brighter, doubtless, but you will not be cleaner than you are when the Lord has washed you and made you white in his own blood.

This life is but the entrance to glory. Clothe yourselves in the righteousness of Jesus Christ, for this is the royal robe of Earth and Heaven. Now begin the song which your lips shall sing in Paradise, or else you will never be admitted to the heavenly choirs.

P.S. the picture of me was actually that my whole right side was swollen after I got stung by bee.

Touch the nature

I felt like my blog is all about Zion. But it is true. My day is about being with him all day long. Most of things that I do are related with him. How dramatic change of life style since Zion is born. Now it's hard to picture my day & myself without him now. My focus is on him because he is my child. It is a picture of our relationship between God and me. God's day is not happening without me. His focus is on me. He wants to show all the good things He made for me. He wants me to enjoy His beauty, His goodness, endless grace and His mercy. I am so thankful for the reminder again and again how God, my heavenly Father takes care of me in such way. It is fascinating to see that even baby enjoys nature.

Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

Jude 1:21
Keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

Tennis Pro

I had so much fun with Zion at the Tennis Court. It was a great idea to take him there. Maybe he will playing Tennis with us one day.
