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: Ecclesiastes 2

Please read Ecclesiastes 2 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.)

當你走到無力 When You Are without Strength


Please click the links below to Ecclesiastes 2:
"I denied myself nothing my eyes desired;
I refused my heart no pleasure.
My heart took delight in all my work,
and this was the reward for all my labor.
Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve,
everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind;
nothing was gained under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 2: 10-11



What I received from Jesus today is: Tried everything, satisfied with nothing!

Last chapter King Solomon
talked about how he did not lack anything but had nothing! And this chapter he talked about how he tried everything and satisfied with nothing. Poor Solomon!

He tried everything a human being can think of like wine, great projects of houses, vineyards, gardens, parks, reservoirs, slaves, herds and flocks, silver and gold, men and women singers and women. So what? Everything to him was still meaningless and like a chasing after the wind. Poor Solomon!

How can this chapter inspires you, your purpose of life and your lifestyle?
Where was God in all of these?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us not to follow Solomon's footsteps into a spiritual "black hole". In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
