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 (=

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。

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.
