Grace 1----Thank God! After helping my daughters filed taxes, I found out that my old daughter received a full scholarship! I often complain to God and say: Why do you pay me such a low salary, and now I basically only have enough to eat and drink, and I can't pay the rent! Thank God! I don't need to pay rent! "Rental" expenses already account for more than half of New Yorkers' income! I am a single mother with two daughters, and today both daughters are safe and healthy. They are both entering college under the guidance of God. This is my best gift! And God pays me to take care of my two daughters! I am not a good mother! My communication with my two daughters is pretty bad, but thankful we have a God who hears prayers! What God has given me will always exceed what I ask and think! I have to serve God! I must be a faithful servant! Because my boss God is so great!
"Home" in Chinese means pigsty! It's a house for a herd of pigs! The Chinese concept of home is quite ingrained, and home dosen't need neat and tidy! A home can be as messy as a pigsty, but a home can't be without pigs! As we often say: the golden den and the silver den are not as good as your own dog kennel! Home is definitely not how big the house is. Our home smells like pigs and people. How can a home without people be home? That's just buildings! In the United States, all you see are "buildings". Why don't American parents love their children? They quarrel with their children! Why Are Older Americans no Longer Happy? Because they only care about themselves and their retirement, they never care about the joy of being in the same house for generations!
Not easy for a single mom to raise two daughters going to college, but God help me! Many families have double income, but they can't support two daughters who are going to college like me, and today, God's grace, I have no job for two years, but I can still support these two daughters, God is really ~ worthy worship and praise! My old daughter is studying at NYU. I know that NYU is very difficult to get a full scholarship, but because of God's grace, of course, she has also put in a lot of hard work herself, and she won a full scholarship. If, God have mercy, give her a full scholarship for four years, and she will earn a house for herself! This is definitely not my credit, but the result of God's grace and sister's own efforts!
I was quite worried about my little daughter before! But God is really a real and living God! I pray for both of them every day, and my prayer is quite simple, I wish them good health, peace and joy! My little daughter didn't want to study, but now she is willing to go back to university to complete her studies. This is the most joyful thing! No matter, how many tears have I had in the past? How much conflict did we have? But in the love and grace of God, none of this matters anymore! I don't know what you expect from "home"? But in traditional Chinese culture, home is a family that is not neat and tidy! God is always the one who turns corruption into miraculous! The church is the home of Christians! If the church is a building, then the church has absolutely no value in the eyes of God! God values the heart of worship of the congregation, not the size of the building. I hope that one day there will be a church without buildings, where every Christian will worship the God worthy of our praise. No time, no space constraints! As long as you see worship on the radio, on TV, you're willing to separate yourself...and worship God! I believe this is what pleases God the most!
(1 Timothy 3:5) (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)~Many pastors have interpreted Paul's words too superficially and hypocritically! What is managing your own home? With big houses and everyone living in prison? Does everyone have no peace and joy at all? My home has been quite messy because I don't spend much time furnishing it at all, I don't focus on the form, I focus on ~ everyone who lives in it! If everyone goes to church to worship God as a form, you can't know God until the last day of your life, and you can't understand why you should be a Christian? Don't let the church become a mere formality!
Grace2--- I just got really, really quite sad! I really feel like I can't go on! I don't understand if these Christians are Christians? Why are these people running schools like you run a school shop? It took me a year before and all the grades don't count! Right now, what I hate the most is~ Can all Christian schools not make things difficult for those who want to study? I love reading the Bible and I have studied psychology! And these pastors really need psychological counseling! I'm planning to open a non-profit counseling service! Because if it goes on like this, Christianity will definitely end!
Why on earth are you running a Christian school! Are you trying to cultivate followers of Christ? Or train people who follow the world? If psychology is effective, there will not be a lot of people with psychological symptoms in the United States, and there will be no vagrant and neurotic in the subway. I can tell you with 100% certainty: the American psychology courses are the most unqualified psychology courses I have ever taken! Psychology is a new mental illness! "Psychology" is not just talk on paper, let alone talk and give medicine~that doesn't work for psycholgy problems. What a subconscious mind! Am I not here when I die? Have you ever seen ~ many people live for the dead? Philosophical theory never solved psychology problems.
please! please! Whether you are a pastor, a church leader, or a school principal, we all have only one Creator! Don't make things difficult for those who have zeal, don't let the zeal of following Jesus be killed by your jealousy! We only have one Creator, and the two greatest commandments of Christians are: love the Lord your God with all your heart, strength, mind, and soul, and the second is the same—love your neighbor as yourself! If you can't even do this simple thing, how can you bear good fruit! "Making things difficult" won't make you great, it will only make you lose God's face! There are also sins that make people stumble, can you bear it?
Although, I am very sad! But I have to thank God! Although, He has been letting me be humiliated by these people, but, forget it! I really don't know what to say about these Christians? People who use fake passports and fake credit cards to buy air tickets say they are Christians! And these teachers who make things difficult for people also say that they are Christians! The increase of lawlessness makes the heart grow cold! But God is always a faithful God! For the past two years, I have barely worked, just reading and helping with counseling and prayer! And I really did not pay tuition to study! This is what God promised me! He also does provide for my expenses, although, I don't have a lot of money to spend! But it's all by the grace of God! So, although I am very sad! Still can't blame God! Because God is good, but menkind are evils!
