Please sign up for the 8th stage - 800 days **NEW link for the 8th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign (Jul 22, 2011 to Oct 29, 2011)

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week then prayerfully remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!


Today's Reading: Psalm 49

Please read Psalm 49 and listen to what the Lord Jesus Christ would like to tell you before reading my Spiritual Journal below. If you would like to learn a simple and good way of Daily Devotion method please read my “Count Down 5” from this blog. You may click this link directly for the method: Subject Shifting Devotion.pdf. (You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.)

天地讚美

Please click the links below to Psalm 49:


Anyone can see that the brightest and best die,
wiped out right along with fools and dunces.
They leave all their prowess behind,
move into their new home, The Coffin,
The cemetery their permanent address.
And to think they named counties after themselves!

We aren't immortal. We don't last long.
Like our dogs, we age and weaken. And die.

We aren't immortal. We don't last long.
Like our dogs, we age and weaken. And die.
Psalm 49: 10, 12, 20 (The Message)

But me? God snatches me from the clutch of death,
he reaches down and grabs me.
Psalm 49: 15 (The Message)
But God will redeem my life from the grave;
he will surely take me to himself.
Psalm 49: 15(NIV)



What I received from Jesus today is: Can dog go to heaven?

I hope this sharing won't hurt those who love dogs and thinks that they can see their beloved dogs in heaven. Dogs and other animals do not have souls, how can they go to heaven?

This psalm gives us the reason why it is useless to trust in earthly things because none of it will last. The psalmist describes the downfall of those who claim how much they have, what they can do or how well they are known, rather than using their time on earth to build up an intimate personal relationship with God and serving Him faithfully. Those who live to accomplish God's kingdom plan will experience ultimate life after they pass away.(v. 15) Not like those who live just like animals having no future!

Chinese like to describe their lives as working so hard as a dog! Do you live each day like an animal or a disciple of Christ? You need to have a choice!

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to live each day serving you extending your kingdom plan and that when the time comes you will take us to yourself. In
Jesus name we pray. Amen.
