Light of the world

November 5, 2008

I saw the full spectrum of light across the sky this morning! What a magnificent view, first time in my life. I wondered it must happen everyday, but only till now I noticed. I can see the full spectrum of color above the water wrapping around the whole city, the whole state, the whole earth. It reminded me even though Obama won the presidential election, God is in control. It has not been the better news I was hoping for, but with the mild wind blowing, I enjoyed my morning run.

3:21 我 想 起 這 事 、 心 裡 就 有 指 望 。
3:22 我 們 不 至 消 滅 、 是 出 於 耶 和 華 諸 般 的 慈 愛 、 是 因 他 的 憐 憫 、 不 至 斷 絕 。
3:23 每 早 晨 這 都 是 新 的 . 你 的 誠 實 、 極 其 廣 大 。
3:24 我 心 裡 說 、 耶 和 華 是 我 的 分 . 因 此 、 我 要 仰 望 他 。
3:25 凡 等 候 耶 和 華 、 心 裡 尋 求 他 的 、 耶 和 華 必 施 恩 給 他 。

耶利米哀歌

A shadowy day

October 8, 2008

A prisoner who had abandoned hope
Just like the demon-possessed man I felt
A slave to forces beyond control
I don’t know that world anymore
Nor it has ever known me
My heart is aching and hope is slim
I can’t see or hear because I can’t trust what was seen or heard
I figured I must have seen a ghost, heard the wind
It’s like new burnt on an old scare
It’s worse or became numb?
Either case it’s just agonizing to me
All I’m waiting is to be released from this torment
And experience the peace of Jesus again
