I did

a stranger came to my working place this afternoon. he told me he suffered from blood tumor, he showed me the lump on his neck, and his hand is a bit crooked...he said he has no job and no money for his family...he asked me whether i can donate him a few ringgit... i gave RM10...and i prayed to God for his condition. my heart did judged him, whether he was cheating me or not? whether he will bring home the money or not? i shouldn't ask whether he bring home the money or not, but i should ask whether i was giving out of a sincere heart? Yes God, I did.

a pastor once said.... better we be cheated a thousand times than to allow out hearts to be hardened even once...

Ah! I know that feel. Always at restaurant when beggars come asking for money I have an urge to give but shamefully sometimes i didn't give even though i want to give because i'm afraid of being laughed by my friends as stupid but the phrase is always, better cheated than hardening my heart just once.

Anyway i have added your blog to my blogroll.. do add me too.. hehe (=

脚印

一个人在回顾自己的一生时, 发觉在人生的旅途上有两组脚印… 属于他和上帝的, 但最令他困惑的是, 在他人生低潮和最失意的时候, 地上却只有一组脚印, 他不解地问上帝: “为什么在我最需要你时, 你却不在?!” 上帝用慈祥的声音回答说: “孩子, 当你看见一组脚印时, 那正是我背着你!” 今天我们走的是什么路? 蓝天白云, 花香遍野, 脚步轻盈? 或是双肩沉重, 前路崎岖, 风雨重至, 一步一艰辛, 希望有人扶你一把? 只要你愿意, 无论是怎样的旅程, 耶稣都会和你走过.

有你在身旁

你, 一直都在我身旁, 不曾离开... 与你的相遇是何时何地? 我想我与你擦肩而过...但是你却说, 你不会放弃我... 日子一天一天的过, 你一直守护着我... 虽然我用力的想要逃避... 虽然我对你不理不睬... 虽然我说不要你的关怀... 虽然我甚至想要把你忘记...你却不曾离我而去... 为什么? 我不明白... 直到我陷入低谷, 想要放弃, 以为你也将要离开我, 才发现我错了... 你伸出双手拥抱我, 叫我别放弃, 因为你不曾放弃我... 你说:"我爱你, 永远都不会离开你!" 我, 也不要离你而去! 你的大爱, 拯救了我. 我愿用一生去回应你的爱. 谢谢你, 耶稣. 你, 一直都在我身旁, 不曾离开.

两个人

一个星期六下午, 他和她在同一间咖啡屋。两人点了爱喝的Irish Coffee,不加糖。 他在看书, 而她也看着同一本书。不时会听见他们咯咯大笑, 身边的人也禁不住偷笑起来了。 一直坐到傍晚时分, 他们才离去。 他向老板娘说声谢, 她向服务员微笑点头。  不知道过了多少个星期六, 他们又回到了同一间咖啡屋, 选了同一张桌子。 他红着双眼, 点了Irish Coffee; 她泪流满面, 熟悉她的服务生也为她点了Irish Coffee.。这一次, 他们坐到店快要打烊才回家, 两人擦身而过。 无数个星期六过去了, 他们脸上又带着笑容,向咖啡屋的老板娘和服务生打招呼! 这一次, 他们没有点Irish Coffee, 反而向老板娘要了有点儿酸又带些甜的柳橙汁。 终于, 他们的眼神有了交集, 两人微笑了。
