the bride

The bride, the beautiful princess, a royal daughter is glorious. She waits within her chamber, dressed in a gown woven with gold. Wearing the finest garments, she is brought to the King. Her friends, her companions, follow her into the royal palace. What a joyful, enthusiastic, excited procession as they enter the palace! She comes before her King, who is wild for her!

-- Old testament,
Psalm 45

Love

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

1 Cor 13:6-8

pray with me

love in the family and salvation of their lives

to grow in both maturity and wisdom

inspirations, always

我现在好想談一場轟轟烈烈的戀愛，那種“不惜一切只為你”的戀愛，

就有如楊囯與小龍女的那種扣人心弦，非一般的牽絆。

但是這只能停留在幻想，因爲屬於我的愛情還沒來。

如果我能把這些都完整地呈現成一首詞，搭上不錯的曲，就會是一首好歌了吧！

哈哈，這讓我想起企鵝的“HEARTSONG”，HAPPYFEET 裏頭的。

LOVE 11:42 PM

Perfect love drives out all fear
Love makes you strong

"If you wanna have passion for Jesus, you have to study His passion for you. How much He loves you, how much He suffered and He died for you. Because 1 John 4 says we love Him because He first loved us."
- Jaeson Ma

We love because he first loved us

Colours are said to have mood and character -- so what colour do you resemble? As before, this is not a question about your favourite colour, but the one you think you are like -- and why!

When I was hanging out with my close group of friends last night, I asked them to associate me with a colour (yes, I asked for help and opinions!). Most of them couldn't associate me with a specific colour, but one insists that I'm hot pink! This is because at times I can be bimbotic, loud, noisy, bright and glaring just like *hot pink*. (I must emphasise that she only mentioned ONE side of me!) So after listening to many opinions, I think I'm most like black!

Black often carries a negative meaning that some people may not want to associate with. That's just like me. As you can infer from my friend's description of me (refer to the first paragraph), strangers and even some acquaintances may not have a particularly good impression of me. Some of them may even keep a distance from me! Yet, through time and deeper understanding, people grow to realise they cannot deny my existence and my importance.

Black is a colour that could be found easily around us. See, even the font colour is BLACK. I would say that its existence may not be as noticeable as other bright colours, yet its existence cannot be denied and is very much needed. My existence in my family, among my friends, and even at church, could very much be described in the same way. For instance among my friends, I may not be the first person they approach when they need someone to help solve a problem but I'm definitely the second. Thus you could say that I am the person that they always remember as I'm always with them and they know they can fall back on me.

A quote from Amy Grant, an American singer-songwriter, "Without black, no color has any depth. But if you mix black with everything, suddenly there's shadow - no, not just shadow, but fullness." Black being the darkest colour brings out the best and the fullness of any colour. This is a characteristic that I can identify as well. My character is very much unique and different in my close group of friends. Thus my complementary character and personality works well with them and brings out the best in many situations. This is especially apparent when we work together in projects, as I would usually complement their working styles to achieve a goodness-of-fit.

Last but not least, black represents death. This is my attitude towards life. I die to my ways so that I could gain life. Death is engine of life. Seems like a paradoxical statement? Let me explain this with a parable. Unless a grain of wheat is buried in the ground, dead to the world, it is never any more than a grain of wheat. But if it is buried, it sprouts and reproduces itself many times over, which signifies the abundance in life. Likewise, unless I die to my foolish and selfish ways (for example, getting jealous very easily) I would not be able to experience that abundance. And since I want to live life to the fullest, I die to yield life.
