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 39

Please read Psalm 39 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.)

Chinese praise song -
祢是彌賽亞

Please click the links below to Psalm 39:


You have made my days a mere handbreath;
the span of my years is as nothing before you.
Each man's life is but a breath.
Man is a mere phantom as he goes to and fro:
He bustles about, but only in vain;
he heaps up wealth, not knowing who will get it.
Psalm 39: 5-6


What I received from Jesus today is: Man is a mere phantom!

Many people in the world today are mourning for the death of the founder and CEO of Apple computer, Steve Jobs. Just 56 and like a breath he passed away! May be you do not know who Steve Jobs is but you need to know what David wants to tell you, "Man is a mere phantom!"

So many people are so busy doing this and that, heaping up wealth but do not know who will get it!

Do you know we dwell with God as an alien, a stranger in this world. This is not our home, our home is up there in heaven, there, is our home! I have seen to many unhappy faces, souls without joy but just working hard and live in pain. Return to the fountain of joy and that we may rejoice again before we depart and are no more!

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to understand that we are mere phantom. Lead us to return to you that we may rejoice again before we depart and are no more. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
