"The Lord Conducts from the Beginning to the End"
Scripture: Revelation 21:6 [He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life.]
2009年是很多變化的一年，世界如此，個人也是。神按照著法則來動工運行著，所有的人都如在軌道上運行的星球般，依照著話語的方向過了這更新變化的一年。
2009年是: 悔改與原諒的歷史/聖靈動工的歷史/因著話語結出信仰的果實/ 神揀選啟示者賜下份量高達幾大箱的啟示話語/ 靈修會及藝術的歷史/ 傳道的歷史/ 聖餐式/Love Christmas/ 預備再臨/ 比過去主更大大為我們動工/J雕像完成.
對我自己而言:2009年所經歷的很多是過去30年沒有經歷的，如一個人到地球的另一半生活了一年，認識了一群紐約客，跟隨聖靈的腳步雲遊美國，沒有留下遺憾的回到祖國，工作的轉換等。這一年感謝 神，很豐富。

I CAY FLY~
很喜歡嫂嫂網站上的一篇
訴說著母親對子女無盡的愛和期盼
Love in your eyes 在你眼中充滿的愛
Sitting silent by my side 靜靜地坐在我身邊
Going on holding hands 永遠緊握著的手
Walking through the nights 一起走過整個夜晚
Hold me up hold me tight 抱緊我 緊緊的抱住我
Lift me up to touch the sky 讓我能觸碰到天空
Teaching me to love with heart 教我如何用心去愛
Helping me open my mind 幫我打開我心門
I can fly 我可以飛
I'm proud that I can fly 我很驕傲我可以飛翔
To give the best of mine 給你最好的我
Till the end of the time 直到時間的盡頭
Believe me I can fly 相信我，我可以飛翔
I'm proud that I can fly 我很驕傲我可以飛翔
To give the best of mine 給你最好的我
The heaven in the sky 就是天空中的天堂
Stars in the sky 天空中的繁星
Wishing once upon a time 從以前就一再的許願
Give me love make me smile 給我愛使我微笑
Till the end of life 直到生命的盡頭
Hold me up hold me tight 抱緊我 緊緊的抱住我
Lift me up to touch the sky 讓我能觸碰到天空
Teaching me to love with heart 教我如何用心去愛
Helping me open my mind 幫我打開我心門
I can fly 我可以飛
I'm proud that I can fly 我很驕傲我可以飛翔
To give the best of mine 給你最好的我
Till the end of the time 直到時間的盡頭
Believe me I can fly 相信我，我可以飛翔
I'm proud that I can fly 我很驕傲我可以飛翔
To give the best of mine 給你最好的我
The heaven in the sky 就是天空中的天堂
Can't you believe that you light up my way 你相信 你已照亮我的路嗎
No matter how that ease my path 再也不管我人生的路會如何
I'll never lose my faith 我絕不失去我的信心
See me fly 看著我飛
I'm proud to fly up high 我的驕傲讓我飛更高
Show you the best of mine 讓你看到最好的我
Till the end of the time 直到時間的盡頭
Believe me I can fly 相信我 我可以飛翔
I'm singing in the sky 我正在天空中唱著

Nothing can stop me什麼都不能阻止我
Spread my wings so wide展翅高飛
愛的聖誕禮物

感謝神~~ 新日教會搬新家了!
在神和主耶穌的看顧之下，新日教會不斷的改變成長，從裡到外，從小到大，從個人到全體，都看到了神明顯動工的痕跡。當我從頭到尾參與在其中看到這樣的轉變時，真的唯有感謝神而已。
感謝神對我不離不棄始終如一的愛，以及從不間斷的靈糧，讓小BABY般的靈逐漸的長大到能夠了解父母的心情，分擔父母擔子的小大人了。
經歷五次的搬家，一次比一次更好也更有盼望。就有如神帶領以色列人出埃及經曠野到迦南地一般，流奶與蜜的迦南福地一直都在眼前，神也預定了給我們的祝福，但唯有相信主話語並堅持到底的人才能得勝所有患難並享受辛苦後甜美的果實。
WMD石頭造景也在倒塌四次後，建的更完美更雄壯更神祕而留存至今了。更重要的是神在建造的過程中鍛練人們的精神和氣魄，『就算石頭造景倒塌，但我的心永遠不會倒!』因此第五次成就了磐石般不倒塌的歷史，看到的人都讚嘆:這真的是神的傑作品。
我們的靈也是這樣被神修造著，神以著愛和真理不斷的修造剪枝，直到成為神完美的作品可以進入天國為止。
爸媽也來參觀新教會，真的很漂亮且有著神很大的祝福在其中，看到的人都這樣說著。
今天牧師看到耶穌給我們每個參與其中的每一個人不同的禮物，且上面寫著每個人的名字，真是太棒了，本想耶穌生日的聖誕節要給耶穌什麼禮物呢，沒想到耶穌先給我們愛的聖誕禮物!

回頭看911
朋友轉寄的文章
令我想起美國人曾和我說:
911是神對美國的仁慈的審判
因為發生在當天早上 8:50 & 9:05 am
在WTC上班的人共有55000名
但死亡人數只有2500名(因為是上班時間之前)
占全體的0.045
當時一位朋友的媽媽聽到警鈴要離開
她的上司說:if you leave now,you will be fired!
她離開了她存活了，但那上司就再也見不到了
在當時如果重視物質名譽工作等一切甚於生命的
都失去了生命!
我們公司的同事也見證當天主耶穌感動她不去上班
不了解的人笑說:以後不去上班有藉口了
但就像所多瑪與娥摩拉時代
神以硫磺及火審判了那地
但保留了愛神並遵守神的話去做的羅得
其中羅得的妻子雖然一起離開但是回頭看了，
因著眷戀這個世上而成為鹽柱，死了!
義大利的龐貝城記載了這樣的景象
紐約人見證:911讓紐約人改變了
大家彼此友愛和善的對待周圍的人一陣子
以下是朋友分享的文章:
美國著名牧師葛培理的女兒安妮，
於911後被美國某電視台邀請出席節目。
主持人單刀直入問：「為何主會讓此等悲劇發生？」
她以神的睿智，道出一番見解︰
我深信神跟我們一樣，為此事極度痛心。
但美國人在這些年來，將神從學校中趕走、將祂從政府內踢走、將祂從我們生活中剔走。
我相信神祇有默默地從我們的生活中無奈淡出。
當初是我們自己叫神離開，為甚麼現在又要問祂到底在那裡？
為甚麼我們有權質問神，為何不保護美國人？
不如讓我們回顧美國這幾年的道德發展，好嗎？
某年，有人提出，學校內不可祈禱，因為學校應宗教中立，學校無權要求學生祈禱。
我們說︰「無問題！」
某月，有人覺得教導人「不可殺人、不可偷盜、要愛鄰舍」的聖經落伍，不如把它從學校中拿走。
我們說︰「無問題！」
某日，有人說︰「孩子的自尊心很脆弱，我們不應使用體罰。」（說這話的人，他的孩子最終自殺身亡。）
我們說︰「無問題！」
某刻，有人說︰「時代變了，老師、校長不應責罰學生 ，學生承受太大壓力了。」因怕惹怒家長，引起傳媒報導，學校不敢處罰學生。
我們說︰「無問題！」
又有人說︰「孩子有人權，他們有權接受墮胎手術，更沒有責任通知父母。」
我們說︰「無問題！」
他說︰「與其閃閃縮縮，不如主動教孩子如何使用安全套。反正孩子都是好奇嘛，婚前性行為，沒甚麼大不了！」
我們說︰「無問題！」
有人說︰「工作跟私人生活應分開，只要那總統能搞好經濟.....我們幹嗎要管人家的私生活？！人人都有私隱嘛！」
我們說︰「無問題！」
有人說︰「瀏覽色情網站是個人自由，即使是兒童色情網站又如何？這都是個人言論自由，關你甚麼事！」
我們說︰「無問題！」
有人說︰「現代人應有開放思想，電視、電影的色情、暴力，只不過在反映社會實況。關於毒品、強姦、謀殺、惡魔的歌詞，也不過是宣洩情緒、紓緩壓力.......為何要大驚小怪？想做就去做嘛！」
我們說︰「無問題！」
成年人為社會訂下以上種種「社會制度」後，我們又要追問︰為甚麼現今孩子沒有良知？為何孩子持槍殺人？為何13歲的孩子已為人父母？為甚麼911慘劇要發生？
神無奈地答︰「孩子呀！是你們不許我踏入你們的生命。」
若細心思索，不難發現這一切是我們自己做成的，我們親手摧毀了自己所栽種的。
有趣的是，人們離棄神，卻又質問神為何整個世界正走向地獄的門口。
有趣的是，我們相信報紙所說的，卻質疑經上所說的。
有趣的是，你可以透過電郵發出笑話，並且很快被廣傳，但當你發出與神有關的信息時，人們卻猶豫。
有趣的是，不雅及色情的文章在網上自由地發放；但在學校及工作環境中，對於神的公開討論卻被抑制。
你正在想什麼呢？
你對別人怎看你比對神怎看你更加在意?
每天多學一點
接下新的工作邁入第三個禮拜
心情有階段性的轉換
一 水深火熱 ---每天工作到很晚不知道工作的意義和價值
二 吃苦當吃補---現在辛苦點明天會更好
三 每天可以多學一點真的很感謝耶
老闆的一句話點醒了我，雖然辛苦些但每天能學習這不是我所期待的工作嗎!
想起過去:
出社會的第一份工作被分派到保管箱，當時很無法接受，堂堂一個政大財政系畢業，
財政部長林全健保局長等都是我的老師耶，竟然派在這保管箱工作，這銀行真的學不到什麼。
不過還是很努力的當好這一層B1的樓長，管好我的工讀生妹妹，教導她由一個漫不經心的美術系學生
成為我的小助手。環境上也布置廁所加上溫馨小語及笑話幾則成為人們很喜歡使用的地方；
同時整理會客室成為一個小圖書館供客戶可以閱讀書報。
回想這一切都是神的磨練，名符其實的從底層做起。
在這分行待了三年後留職停薪出國念書，回國後調到總行展開下一站的工作生涯!

做人要厚道
今天上班時發生一件事後來想想蠻有趣的
因為我是授信的新人，很多事情都還在摸索中
系統不熟，作業流程也不順，因為第一次都需要花時間摸索
所以我的師傅把他的授信學習筆記給我一份參考
因為我所印出來的表和BO印象中的不一樣
所以他去詢問甲時，甲說我做錯了
甲並追根究柢為何我會做錯，也找到了那份學習筆記
甲認為不可以流傳錯誤方法，一定要訂正!
就科學而言是沒錯
但對人情而言
我覺得大可不必
畢竟別人是好心的把他的學習心得分享給我參考
知道錯改正就好不要大驚小怪弄到全授信六十多人都知道。
精彩的來了，在我去電詢問調分行的前手時
他說兩個方法都行，且我用的方法也就是筆記上的方法
是更省時省力少一道覆核的手續
原來不了解的人或了解一半的人卻大聲嚷嚷宣傳的人
這下糗大了
不是說同事的壞話而是我們每個人都有可能遇到這樣的狀況
只要多想想別人的立場
以及自己可能也有不周全或錯的時候
就可以體貼的輕聲教導
也可避免事後的窘境

關心一下地球吧
災難 不會到此為止（陳文茜） 2009年09月12日
"在2009年3月，哥本哈根召開一場IPCC氣候變遷的會議；
這場史上聚集最多專家的氣候大會，不像科學家的聚會，而像宗教家的末日預言大會。IPCC觀測結果，格陵蘭北極融冰比2005年高爾拍紀錄片時預測還糟；全球暖化2005年後特別劇烈，即使停止所有工業活動，大氣層的二氧化碳仍將持續至少50年生命周期；2005年時原預估世紀末（2100年）海平面將上升18 -50公分，但2008年修正為 1公尺，提高一倍。
讀完中研院汪中和 教授的哥本哈根會議報告，我走出辦公室，一名年輕人與我擦身而過，20來歲。他辛苦上班，只希求完美人生。算算還有30年，才到我的年紀。
30年後2040年，地球是什麼？台灣面臨多少災難？他的人生在哪裡？
趙少康告訴我，他女兒有日告訴他：「我們這一代將會看到世界末日。」孩子的話令人疼惜。父母努力一輩子，只為給孩子幸福的將來。但我們「努力」愈多，二氧化碳累積愈多；我們孩子，不要說幸福，連談將來都奢侈。
我們以為IPCC的警告太遠，扁案才是世紀大審；但真正的大審判來自大自然，被告就是追求工業成長的我們。
聖嬰現象才開始
末日不必等世紀末，已是現在進行式。7月以來的聖嬰氣候席捲全球， 8月27日重慶16小時一夜之間竟閃電11471次，比抗戰轟炸還厲害；加州9月大火，希臘8月底乾旱；土耳其 9月7日兩天內下了半年的雨量；遼寧大旱，長江中游氾濫；莫拉克降下世紀雨量。我主持的《文茜世界週報》周周均給觀眾至少一則難以置信的氣候災難故事，自7月至今不墜。知情的孩子說，「我們活不下去了」；茫然的孩子，當它僅是災難新聞。
氣候專家說，2009年聖嬰現象8月僅是開頭，10月才漸入高峰，年底達高點。全球乾旱的地方更乾旱；下雨的地方動輒暴雨。歷史上人類每隔10年或數十年出現聖嬰，但全球暖化後「聖嬰」成常態，因暖化不只導致海平面上升，也使海溫度上升，聖嬰現象成為年年常態。
去年1月中國華南大雪，冰凍範圍之大，1949年以來罕見；去年5月緬甸風災，災民佔總人口之半，奪走13萬條人命；去年澳洲夏天高溫47度，破百年紀錄，不到一年，聖嬰又來了。目前災情只是初步階段。
莫拉克對災民，一生難忘；但災難不可能到此為止。中研院 汪 教授估計地球每增加1度，雨量平均增加6％；台灣因地處北迴歸線，加上地形等因素，雨量將是世界均值15倍，會上升100 ％。北極冰融海平面上升1公尺，台灣將失去11％土地，台北成沼澤，台南、高雄將被淹沒。
在氣候專家的排名中，台灣、越南、孟加拉、南太平洋、加勒比海皆列第一批氣候難民。台灣海拔 100公尺以下無法居住。
人生其他的事，有一天我們都得放下。
為你自己，更為你的孩子，關心一下地球。"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
馬太福音24:36-44 「那日子，那時辰，沒有人知道，連天上的使者也不知道，子也不知道，惟獨父知道。挪亞的日子怎樣，人子降臨也要怎樣。當洪水以前的日子，人照常喫喝嫁娶，直到挪亞進方舟的那日；不知不覺洪水來了，把他們全都沖去。人子降臨也要這樣。那時，兩個人在田裏，取去一個，撇下一個。兩個女人推磨，取去一個，撇下一個。所以，你們要警醒，因為不知道你們的主是那一天來到。家主若知道幾更天有賊來，就必警醒，不容人挖透房屋；這是你們所知道的。所以，你們也要預備，因為你們想不到的時候，人子就來了。」
一定要趕快悔改進入時代的方舟
如挪亞時代 神透過挪亞宣達當時代神的話語
要人們一起建方舟或只要願意都可以免費搭上方舟
但世人們只是癡笑挪亞繼續過著自己吃喝玩樂的生活
結果只有挪亞一家八口進入方舟
在洪水審判時得以活命
神行審判前一定會透過先知等預先告知
審判不是為了滅亡地球~神不會毀掉自己辛苦創造讓人居住的地球
審判是為了善惡分別!
一定要趕快悔改成為善的一方
末世時就是一個分裂點
末世時人子會再臨
人子有審判的權柄
義人惡人會被分開的!

Thanksgiving Day
感恩節的不感恩
今天是感恩節加班到很晚九點多才得以回家吃晚餐，忍不住流淚，悲傷、難過等等負面情緒湧上才回台灣一個月就如此適應不良~只敢和主耶穌抱怨+ 早上賴著不想上班!
不禁擔心是否是自己抗壓性太弱，
但肉體疲憊，心情壓力大，工作做不完等事實讓我擔心不知道這樣做五年十年對自己的靈魂肉體會不會造成負面影響?
人生中只有工作或是被工作綑綁是我很不願意面對的事情，
但對很多同事而言這是必須認命的現實及人類的悲哀。
感恩節還是要感謝一下:
至少我還有家可以歸--而且不用付房租；
有媽媽準備的晚餐--雖然已經冷掉；
有家人可以訴苦---雖有時候是討罵挨；
我感謝主給我這一切
不論酸甜苦辣我都接受
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
感恩節除了有名的MACY'S Balloon Parade 還有例行的美國總統特赦火雞一隻 http://tw.knowledge.yahoo.com/question/question?qid=1405111816677
"西元 1620年，五月花號 (The Mayflower) 載著大約有大人和小孩共一百多人的英國清教徒 (Pilgrims) 在現在麻薩諸塞州的普利斯敦登陸，而當年的寒冬讓他們受盡苦難，到春天來臨，只剩下50多人存活。春季來臨後，得到印地安人給予協助，而有了較好的豐收。為感謝上帝及印地安人朋友，清教徒門每年舉行感恩歡慶，在黎明時鳴放禮炮，列隊走進教堂，點起舞火舉行盛宴。到了1789年華盛頓總統就職聲明中宣佈，11月26日星期四為感恩節，以鼓勵美國人發揚祖先感恩精神，成為美國正式節日。後來在 1863 年美國總統林肯，宣布每年十一月最後一個星期四為感恩節假期；之後感恩節的日期也經過幾次變動，至1941年經過國會通過，開始改回每年11月第四個星期四為感恩節。" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The day after Thanksgiving — or Black Friday — has perennially been considered the launch date of the Christmas shopping season. It is also the date when retailers traditionally have said they break even — or start operating "in the black" — for the year. Black Friday is also the day retailers extend their biggest deals and open stores early to attract millions of customers who have the day off. In recent years, stores have offered door prizes and deep discounts to the first shoppers, hoping they’ll do more holiday shopping while they are there.

"西元 1620年，五月花號 (The Mayflower) 載著大約有大人和小孩共一百多人的英國清教徒 (Pilgrims) 在現在麻薩諸塞州的普利斯敦登陸，而當年的寒冬讓他們受盡苦難，到春天來臨，只剩下50多人存活。春季來臨後，得到印地安人給予協助，而有了較好的豐收。為感謝上帝及印地安人朋友，清教徒門每年舉行感恩歡慶，在黎明時鳴放禮炮，列隊走進教堂，點起舞火舉行盛宴。到了1789年華盛頓總統就職聲明中宣佈，11月26日星期四為感恩節，以鼓勵美國人發揚祖先感恩精神，成為美國正式節日。後來在 1863 年美國總統林肯，宣布每年十一月最後一個星期四為感恩節假期；之後感恩節的日期也經過幾次變動，至1941年經過國會通過，開始改回每年11月第四個星期四為感恩節。" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The day after Thanksgiving — or Black Friday — has perennially been considered the launch date of the Christmas shopping season. It is also the date when retailers traditionally have said they break even — or start operating "in the black" — for the year. Black Friday is also the day retailers extend their biggest deals and open stores early to attract millions of customers who have the day off. In recent years, stores have offered door prizes and deep discounts to the first shoppers, hoping they’ll do more holiday shopping while they are there.

1 失落的預言
http://www.books.com.tw/exep/prod/booksfile.php?item=0010448784
美國Wholeself學院教授、台灣宇宙生命科學學會理事長 呂應鐘教授 專文解析
一份深埋已久的祕密，一場生死瞬間的追尋，
牽動了驚人的世界命運－－
１８８９ 希特勒的堀起
１９１４ 第一次世界大戰
１９４５ 越戰爆發
１９６６ 中國文化大革命
２００１ 美國９１１
２００４ 南亞海嘯
諾斯特拉達姆斯－－史上最偉大的預言家－－他的恐怖預言一一成真。
而他隱藏數百年的最後58則預言詩，又將實現什麼樣驚天動地的異變？
諾斯特拉達姆斯（Nostradamus），法國星相學家，被推崇為有史以來最偉大的預言家。他的預言詩準確地預言了越戰、中國文化大革命、美國911事件以及南亞海嘯等許多舉世驚駭的天災人禍。世人皆知其生前寫了一千則四行預言詩。然而，他的預言詩至今只留存下了942則，而那遺失的58則，究竟遺留何處？又預言了什麼驚人異變？
諾斯特拉達姆斯消失的預言詩所在的線索！他逐步抽絲剝繭，終於發現，這些失落的四行詩裡頭的訊息，竟然與馬雅曆法中昭告的世界末日不謀而合......

天體運行的週期
2012年是一種天體運行週期的交接點，舊的週期將結束，新的週期將開始。大概的說，那一年地球、太陽系和銀河系中心的大黑洞連成一線。地球繞太陽運行，而太陽系包括它在內的10大行星又繞銀河系中心運行，三者連成一線要2萬5700年。當三者對齊時，地球磁場一定受到強烈的影響，因為天體的運行離不開磁場。
1960年代，美國嬉皮在南美發現消失的馬雅人留下的天曆居然算到2012年12月21日冬至便終止，當時可能不知道它在天文學上的意義。他們自然聯想到和占星學有關的預言：一個長達2000多年的「水瓶座新紀元」將來臨。占星學在二次大戰後的歐洲復興傳到美國，但不被認為是正統科學，雖然我們所敬重的伽利略、哥白尼等天文學家在世的時候也是占星學家。
最早提出「新紀元」（the New Age）預言觀念的，是一位了不起的瑞典科學家和發明家斯維登伯格（Emanuel Swedenborg）。他晚年寫了不少宗教方面的書，並說一個人類靈性文明提升、互助合作的紀元將來臨。
地磁轉移和太陽風暴
地球是個大磁鐵。通常，地球磁北極、自轉軸的北極和地球地理的北極相當接近。但是，磁北極在地球數十億年的歷史裡，曾經移轉甚至翻轉過許多次。
人類於1831年第1次在冰天雪地的加拿大北邊探險發現磁北極，第2次發現是1904年，但磁北極已在70年間移動40公里。之後，磁北極幾乎沿直線向西伯利亞加速移動，最近每年移動10至40公里。
同時，地球磁場不斷減弱。在地球之外有一個像巨大的肥皂泡般保護地球的磁氣圈，它也在變薄。2008年12月，美國國家航空暨太空總署（NASA）宣布發現磁氣圈破了個大洞，比地球寬4倍，而且還在擴大中（1）。於是，外太空射向地球的各種有害粒子，將更直接的衝擊到自然萬物和人類社會。
2003年10月底、11月初萬聖節時期出現的太陽風暴，是30年來最強的一次。它在北歐造成停電、使許多飛機航線改道，每航班損失1到10萬美元，美國還損失了價值美金6.4億元的ADEOS-2太空船（2）。而下一次太陽風暴，將在2012年前後來臨，預期會更強烈。屆時，地球磁氣圈更為薄弱，全球電訊將受干擾、飛機航線若不改道將失事、電力供輸將中斷，其他和電磁有關的各種運作都可能失常。
全球暖化的局限
2012為世界帶來的衝擊應已開始。無論是自然界的災變或人為的災害，似乎都更為頻仍。具體資料顯示，全球地震和火山爆發的事件都已變得更頻繁。2008年5月四川汶川發生7.9級大地震，死亡人數高達7萬人，是最鮮明的實例。這很可能是地球磁場不穩和磁力減弱的結果，而地磁變弱用天體運行接近2012地球、太陽系、銀河中心排列成直線可以解釋。
科學家發現地殼下的岩漿在近10年由赤道向別處移動，這可能帶動在地殼外的海洋流動異常。而洋流異常又可引起氣候變化，如全球暖化的現象。
可是全球暖化並不能影響地殼內岩漿的移動，更不能解釋為何地震和火山活動變得更頻繁。反而接近2012的天體運行可以解釋地殼下的岩漿異常活動、地震頻繁、火山活躍、洋流異常和氣候異常等現象。
最近，有愈來愈多的科學家提出和全球暖化不盡相同的看法。環保學家麥可思和氣候學教授波令在2009年出版了一本名為《氣候極端化》（3）的書。他們說全球氣候不只呈現暖化而已，其實是冷的更冷，熱的更熱。2008年1月大陸的雪災肆掠18省市，死亡上百；而2009年6月因天氣太熱，成都公車起火，死亡27人。同年1月底，美國東北及中西部大風雪，24人死亡；而澳洲南部的世紀熱浪則造成28人死亡。這些現象，只用「全球暖化」無法解釋。氣候學家說：「人為造成的暖化只是一部分原因，此外還有大自然的力量。」甚至還有其他氣候學家認為全球暖化在1998年已經登峰，之後全球的平均溫度會開始下降。
總之，大家熱烈討論的全球暖化並不能解釋近年來自然界出現的異常現象。全球暖化應是另一個更大、更深、更長遠變化的現象之一，那就是2012天體的週期。
天災頻繁，人禍不斷
其他還有許多愈發頻仍的自然界災變，如2004年導致22萬人喪生的印度洋海嘯；2005年肆掠美國佛羅里達州的卡雀娜風災，死亡近2000人；2006年4月美國龍捲風橫掃5州，死亡19人；2007年加州熱浪10天，死亡37人；2008年5月緬甸熱帶氣旋，死亡50萬人；2009年2月，澳洲發生有史以來最嚴重的森林大火，死亡近200人。此外，還有愈發頻繁的鯨魚海豚集體靠岸自殺，蜜蜂、青蛙神祕消失等現象。
近年來，人為的災難也變多。2001年紐約所遭遇的911恐怖攻擊，死亡3000人，歷史上前所未有；2008年開始的全球金融風暴；同年1月，印度廟會發生人踩人的悲劇，造成147人死亡；10月在紐約長島，因感恩節購物人潮過多，沃爾瑪百貨有1名店員被踩死；10月30日，印度、阿富汗、西班牙同日連環爆多人死亡；2009年2月，用高科技導航從不失事的英、法潛艇居然在海底對撞，令人感到不可思議；3月，美國的核動力潛艇和自己的運輸艦在荷莫茲海峽相撞；6月，法國航空公司A330型客機有史以來第一次失事，造成200多人死亡；同月，美國華府地鐵有史以來第一次對撞，造成9死36傷。
而單從台灣社會來看，最近也有愈來愈多乖戾凶殘的個人行為出現。2009年4月20日，彰化狠父熱鍋煮嬰；兩天後，又有高雄縣狠父打死兩歲嬰；6月19日，台北有女殺父；同月25日，板橋母51刀殺4月嬰。
以上所提，顯示全球人為災難急速增加。如何解釋？其實人是個磁體，不斷受到周圍磁力的影響而不自覺。月圓時，月球對地球引力增加，犯罪率和嬰兒出生率都增加。這便是個例子。當地球磁力減弱時，人心傾向浮動，而變得急躁易怒，內心沒有修養的人、原來便有情緒的人，更易如此。而高科技器材都和電磁有關，地磁變弱、來自外太空的干擾加強，許多靠電腦控管的機械便容易失事。
黑暗與光明的更迭
在2012為世界帶來的衝擊之下，未來希望的種子也在萌芽。正如狄更斯在巨作《雙城記》一開始所說：「這是最光明的時代，也是最黑暗時代；這是最智慧的時代，也是最愚蠢的時代。」（5）
希望的種子有哪些？
1.社會觀念的改變：全球金融風暴後，亞當．史密斯《原富論》裡的觀念受到挑戰。他說每人各為自己利益打拚很好，因為有一隻「看不見的手」會自然照顧群體的利益。但是這次金融風暴下，大家都慘兮兮，卻不見那隻「看不見的手」來幫忙。許多人說：「自私自利而沒有利他，不見得是好觀念。」
2.國際合作的增加：全球金融風暴後，前蘇聯國家領袖戈巴契夫呼籲成立世界政府的必要。他說：「難道我們仍然還沒了解到世界政府的重要嗎？」因為各國只謀求「國家利益」並不能解決全球的問題，最後大家都倒楣吃虧。許多意見領袖也有同感。
3.大規模戰爭可能性的下降：近年來由於全球經濟相互依賴程度愈來愈高，大國之間利益與共。你打別人一拳，自己會痛；你捅別人一刀，自己會流血。而且由於人造衛星滿天飛、網路發達、資訊透明化，大規模軍隊集結而不被發現，簡直就是不可能。
4.人類心靈的覺醒：全球提升心靈的組織和講求心靈的書籍愈來愈多，李欣頻和章成的《2012重生預言》就是其中的一本。
最後，我虔誠的祈禱我們的讀者以及全世界的生靈都能安度2012，而進入預言中美好的「新紀元」。

內容連載
Part 2 2012，是末日毀滅還是重生？
2012的議題之所以令各方關注，除了超自然領域的諸多預言，有著極多的交集之外，在科學領域上，也有不少學者提出地球即將發生較大變動的可能，並且時間點亦落在2012年左右。綜觀所有資訊，科學界提供的預測，偏向災難的一面；而非科學界所提供的訊息，反而捎來文明重生的喜訊。
如果把這兩面合在一起想像，我們可以說，我們將經歷的：絕對是難以置信的關鍵時刻。
展開這一頁，矛盾的情緒，或許會隨著資訊如拼圖般進入腦海而逐漸升起，或許這將是讀者頭一次體驗到：拼圖愈清晰，內心卻愈迷惑，原來生命的重大議題就近在咫尺，只能面對，無人也無法逃避。
Chapter 1 總覽目前關於2012的說法
雖然華人地區尚未有一本討論2012的專書，但網路、電視上充斥著各種關於2012的討論與訊息，在此僅做簡單的整理以供各位參考。以下各說法並不代表本書立場，其中仍有非常多爭議與未定論的部分，還望各方專家不吝繼續給予意見與討論。
01 關於《馬雅曆》的說法
馬雅曆法是目前是人類文明史以來，最精確的曆法之一。依據《馬雅曆》的說法，2012年12月冬至，就是本次人類文明結束日。至此之後，人類將進入與本次文明無關的全新文明，特別是全人類在精神與意識上的覺醒與轉變。但這覺醒與轉變並非是在2012年才發生，西元755年一位馬雅僧侶預言：「自西元1992年起，人類就已經進入整整20年覺醒、地球淨化與重生階段，直到2012年。」
如果照馬雅人的說法，第五太陽紀始於西元前3113年，在大週期5125年之後，也就是2012年12月22日前後結束。這個「大週期」又有具體的階段劃分和演化時期，從1992年到2012年這20年，地球已進入了「大週期」最後階段的最後一個演化時期，「馬雅曆法」稱之為「地球更新期」（Earth Regeneration Period）。在這個時期，許多人將經驗：關係的結束、居住地遷移、工作變動、人生觀的劇烈改變等，甚至地球上最敗壞、最變異的物質、不可救藥的惡人都將被揭發清除，本性與良知回歸的好人，才被保留進入下一個新時期。
馬雅人提及，到了2012年後，人類科技將大幅超越現在的技術、超越現有的時間觀與金錢體制，連體內的DNA與意識層次，也會隨著銀河系的提升而升級、重編。地球會在此刻經過第四次元進入第五次元，而銀河系其他星球也會一起提升。
《The Maya Factor》的作者荷西．阿古力斯與卡利曼的「時間加速」說法，是討論2012的重要訊息之一。在2012年之前，時間正在加速，地球的共振（Schumann Resonance）或稱「地球脈衝」，從以前的每秒7.83周，加速成了每秒11周，這表示現在一天才16小時。以2011年為例，每20天就會完成過去一年所經驗的，之後速度還會愈來愈快，預估到了2012年會達每秒13周。照印度的心靈大師Bhagavan的說法：「屆時地球軸心會停止旋轉，頭腦也跑掉了，過去1萬1000年以來的『業』也瞬間消失。」
不過，《馬雅曆》專家朱力行老師表示，《馬雅曆》是一種多次元訊息，並非是三次元地球能完全理解的，因此對於其中的訊息，例如預言的時間點，究竟是2009、2010、2011、2012？不宜以考古學求精準的方式認為只有一個真相，因為在靈性的多次元世界，可能性是有很多種的。重點是，人類要用新的態度去面對文明之提升。
關於時間加速的部分，可以參看《解讀地球生命密碼》第9章〈馳騁於時光隧道中〉當中所提到的：「時間正在瓦解，三次元結構再也不在原有的地方，每個片刻發生了更多事件，為你們突破心靈的防線而準備……感覺上好像你們跑到時間之外的地方，就像你們戴著停走的手錶一樣。許多人這些日子以來極度匆忙，因為他們感受到時間的瓦解，卻不知如何表達這種感覺。切記，要活在當下，這無限擴張的現在，去探索自我並保持平衡，這是宇宙射線所提供的方向：最初始的混沌，重整對居住這個世界的觀感和概念。」
樓宇偉博士也說：「馬雅、基督教、靈修教派等，對2012都共同指出，這是一個週期的『末日』（結束），卻也是一個『黃金時代』（新開始）。」對於我們將經歷非常特別的大轉換時刻，真是令人興奮！

新聞證實
地震前兆？中寮萬隻蚯蚓鑽動
更新日期:2009/11/13 04:09
〔記者陳鳳麗、林嘉琪╱綜合報導〕南投縣中寮鄉永樂國小十一日出現萬隻蚯蚓鑽出地面的驚悚畫面，由於南投上週四才發生規模六強震，且有研究顯示蚯蚓遷移與地震有關，師生擔憂是大地震發生前兆，氣象局及專家認為，季節變化容易發生此種狀況，與大地震發生關聯性低。
南投大地震後又出現驚悚怪現象
「校長、主任，你們快來看！有好多好多蚯蚓！」十一日一早，永樂國小學童驚慌地向師長報告，校長陳燕玉等人到校園一看，發現成千上萬的蚯蚓鑽出地面，集體往西北方向遷移，蚯蚓兵團數量龐大，校方人員深恐腳步一移動，就會踩到一堆蚯蚓，此一情況，是二十年來首見。
校方上網查詢相關資料發現，日本大學曾做過蚯蚓與地震研究，發現地震前電流變化會導致蚯蚓大量爬出洞穴，並產生聚集現象，由於上週地震的震央在南投，老師們都很擔心是大地震發生前兆。
嚇壞永樂國小師生 怕地震又來
萬隻蚯蚓鑽動，讓曾遭受大地震恐懼的中寮人產生疑懼，擁有道教紅頭法師身分的中寮鄉公所機要秘書李增陸及中寮警分駐所所長葉宗欣也認為，此現象與大地可能產生大變化有關。
農委會特生中心專門研究棲地生態的助理研究員沈慧萍則指出，氣候季節轉變，尤其是秋季轉冬季時，最易產生蚯蚓鑽出地面現象，只是有時數量少，民眾沒有發現。不過，研究人員也不解蚯蚓為何會鑽出洞且集體遷移，且不少蚯蚓爬出地面後便會乾死，究竟牠們為何發生這種等同自殺行為，至今無法理解。
氣象局：與大地震關聯性很低
九二一大地震前，南投縣曾出現數量龐大的馬陸、曾文水庫有大量?魚死亡、九份二山的水曾變溫，被很多人視為強震前的徵兆；氣象局地震測報中心主任郭鎧紋表示，目前沒有研究能證明生物異常與大地震直接相關，南投這起蚯蚓出沒現象與大地震的關聯性應該很低。
氣象局長辛在勤也強調，台灣目前有蚯蚓活動，還不能稱為「異常」，他舉一九七五年二月在中國山東半島發生的「海城地震」為例，強震發生前，低溫的荒野上出現大量一半冰凍一半柔軟的蛇屍，並發生密集且頻率多的小地震，再驗證地下水和蛇屍（蛇在冬眠，但受到地殼壓力爬出，才遭凍死在洞口），先發布地震預警，果然發生規模七點多的海城地震。
蚯蚓出洞遷移會不會有大地震？辛在勤說，名間主震規模六，一個月內仍會有餘震，但規模不會大於六，請民眾不用恐慌。

地震 社會案件
蚯蚓露出地上，是大地震警訊？台南縣近日來清晨發現眾多蚯蚓鑽出路面，陽光照射後即紛相死亡，縣民目睹此景心有餘悸，老一輩說是大地震前的徵兆。
據開遊覽車的楊姓司機指出，多年前的921大地震之前，他夜間載著遊客前往南投觀光區的山路，發現柏油路上盡是蚯蚓，甚至還有蛇、陸龜等。
楊姓司機表示，當時曾就這種奇怪現象告訴南投山區當地村民時，對方也覺得很奇怪，說平常關在狗籠裡狗連續好幾天日夜狂叫不停，整天像是很驚慌的樣子，叫進籠子再怎麼叫都不聽話。
，還說，平常夜宿房子後房竹林的鳥類，在921發生的前幾天半夜裡常集體飛走，還發出驚叫聲音，當時還以為有小偷闖進來鳥才會驚嚇，拿起手電筒察看，根本沒動靜。
要發生大地震之前動物會有特別奇怪的動怍，這是老一輩的說法，因為動物世界裡第三靈感很特異，像是小鳥啄食的楊桃、番石柳一定是熟透且最甜的。
至於這幾天半夜3.4點大量躲在地層裡蚯蚓會無緣無故的鑽出陸地，然後爬到馬路上直至早上陽光出來被曬死，這種奇異情況老一輩的猜測應是地層過熱，換個方向思考，有可能大地震發生前的徵兆。
白河大地震發生至今事隔數十年，就以台南縣有多條的地震斷層推測，這些年有可能在嘉南地區會再發生大地震，值得民眾注意防範，提高警覺

代禱信~ 2
2009.11.14 轉寄牧師的信
耶44:29 耶和華說：我在這地方刑罰你們，必有預兆，使你們知道我降禍與你們的話必要立得住。
各位平安:
不僅僅是我們教會弟兄姐妹獲得啟示，光鹽教會李世煌牧師也得到應驗的啟示，當我們拜訪嘉義地區的牧者的時候，又知道一個驚人的消息，那就是在聯禱會中七十個牧者中，有二十多位牧者也得到了地震的異象，這真的不是危言聳聽，上帝的審判在即，彰雲嘉地區的災難即將發生；甚至台中、南投、台南也無法不被牽連。
各位基督徒們，今天又看到關於蚯蚓大量鑽出地表的報導，難道這些徵兆和啟示還不能喚醒各位對這件事情的重視嗎?
神為什麼讓他的新婦先知道，豈不是要我們去呼喊悔改的福音，讓更多人避免因為這次災難死亡而無法逃脫地獄的命運，活著才可以悔改，活著才可以相信主耶穌、侍奉主耶穌，才能去天國。那些沒有被傳福音的人，如果現在就死了，他們的命運就只有去地獄了。
神預先告訴我們，正如同聖經中所說的:
耶32:23 他們進入這地得了為業，卻不聽從你的話，也不遵行你的律法；你一切所吩咐他們行的，他們一無所行，因此你使這一切的災禍臨到他們。
摩3:7 主耶和華若不將奧祕指示他的僕人─眾先知，就一無所行。
請各位明白，這不是我們教會的宣教手段，有誰明知大家不喜歡聽這樣的話，還是一直去說；又有誰願意被大家當做瘋子和傻瓜呢?我們是鼓足勇氣才站出來對大家說話的。甘願冒著被當作宗教狂熱份子和瘋子的污名，難道我們只是為了要增加自己教會的人數嗎?大家不做的事情，為什麼我們要去做嗎?難道我們不知道宣講神的愛更能夠吸引人嗎?
只是，經過禱告確認，以及來自各教會不約而同獲得同樣的啟示，並且環境中也處處顯出預兆，上週不是才發生過南投的強震嗎?各位不覺得這是神在警告我們，他所說的話必定實現嗎?
現在不是增加教會人數的時候，現在是拯救生命避免他們現在因著肉體死亡而無法避免下地獄命運的時候了，主耶穌基督為了救援我們，不惜替我們的罪背起了十字架，然而我們得救的人就只是苟安於自己的平安嗎?主救援了我們，而我們卻不肯去救援那些主所愛的人，各位知道主有多傷心嗎?
我們教會並不是呼喊時限終末論，這次的災難也不會造成世界毀滅，但是總會有許多生命財產的損失，房子倒了可以重建，可是人死了可以復生嗎?下地獄的人還可以有機會進天國嗎?我們是知道真理的人，可是卻不肯去警告和幫助那些被偶像蒙蔽的人，放任他們繼續墮落下去而遭致神的審判，各位覺得神願意看到他即將要迎接的新婦是這樣的鐵石心腸，只顧自己嗎?
各位必須要明白，不是各位的教會有多少的成長，人數有所增長就可以停止神的憤怒，神要的是這地上的人可以明白真理，遠離偶像，真正的悔改歸向主；如果我們是已經在主面前悔改過的人的話，我們還能這樣的對生命不聞不問嗎?
被笑也罷，被罵也罷，主耶穌不是說過:你們要因我的名被萬民恨惡嗎?我們為什麼害怕跟拜偶像的人講神的審判呢?難道神只是愛的神，而不是公義的神嗎?
太24:9 那時，人要把你們陷在患難裡，也要殺害你們；你們又要為我的名被萬民恨惡。
聽到這樣的訊息，我們教會許多人從台北，台中，台南，高雄，花蓮，台東跑到彰雲嘉地區呼喊，大家抱持的心情就是要去拯救生命，大家為什麼不怕遇到災難，還是跑到那裡去呼喊，這是因為我們體會到神比起審判更願意拯救的心情，可是我們不去呼喊的話，難道那些拜偶像的人民能夠悔改相信神嗎?上帝大大動工，光是這幾週中悔改信主的人就有上百人以上，奇怪的是，不只是我們有感覺，當地的居民也是早就感覺到有大災難即將發生而心中驚惶，所以我們告訴他要悔改信主才可以避免災難的時候，他們都願意馬上決志信主!這不就是神拯救生命的神蹟嗎?
各位基督徒與牧者們!我們教會的人力有限，就算拼命去呼喊，也只能拯救一點點生命而已，所以才告訴大家，希望大家一起去拯救生命，我們不要分教派，不要分教會，只要讓這些生命能聽到得救的福音那就夠了，不在乎是哪個教會得著生命，這都是主的生命。
各位害怕到時候這些預言不成就嗎?只有一個情況不會發生，那就是彰雲嘉地區所有的人都離棄偶像悔改信主的時候才不會發生。上帝在看，我們到底是只求自己的苟安，還是願意為了拯救生命而付出自己的生命。
在此呼籲所有的基督徒和牧者們!不要再認為這是我們教會的宣教手段和宣傳手法了，上帝已經賜給台灣許多的平安和祝福，難道上帝不該清算這地的罪嗎?不要只是一廂情願的以為上帝是愛的上帝，上帝不會審判。上帝也是公義的上帝，更是忌邪的上帝不是嗎?
我們也是經過多番思考和天人交戰才鼓足勇氣站出來呼籲大家!希望大家明白我們迫切的心情!
耶44:29 耶和華說：我在這地方刑罰你們，必有預兆，使你們知道我降禍與你們的話必要立得住。
各位平安:
不僅僅是我們教會弟兄姐妹獲得啟示，光鹽教會李世煌牧師也得到應驗的啟示，當我們拜訪嘉義地區的牧者的時候，又知道一個驚人的消息，那就是在聯禱會中七十個牧者中，有二十多位牧者也得到了地震的異象，這真的不是危言聳聽，上帝的審判在即，彰雲嘉地區的災難即將發生；甚至台中、南投、台南也無法不被牽連。
各位基督徒們，今天又看到關於蚯蚓大量鑽出地表的報導，難道這些徵兆和啟示還不能喚醒各位對這件事情的重視嗎?
神為什麼讓他的新婦先知道，豈不是要我們去呼喊悔改的福音，讓更多人避免因為這次災難死亡而無法逃脫地獄的命運，活著才可以悔改，活著才可以相信主耶穌、侍奉主耶穌，才能去天國。那些沒有被傳福音的人，如果現在就死了，他們的命運就只有去地獄了。
神預先告訴我們，正如同聖經中所說的:
耶32:23 他們進入這地得了為業，卻不聽從你的話，也不遵行你的律法；你一切所吩咐他們行的，他們一無所行，因此你使這一切的災禍臨到他們。
摩3:7 主耶和華若不將奧祕指示他的僕人─眾先知，就一無所行。
請各位明白，這不是我們教會的宣教手段，有誰明知大家不喜歡聽這樣的話，還是一直去說；又有誰願意被大家當做瘋子和傻瓜呢?我們是鼓足勇氣才站出來對大家說話的。甘願冒著被當作宗教狂熱份子和瘋子的污名，難道我們只是為了要增加自己教會的人數嗎?大家不做的事情，為什麼我們要去做嗎?難道我們不知道宣講神的愛更能夠吸引人嗎?
只是，經過禱告確認，以及來自各教會不約而同獲得同樣的啟示，並且環境中也處處顯出預兆，上週不是才發生過南投的強震嗎?各位不覺得這是神在警告我們，他所說的話必定實現嗎?
現在不是增加教會人數的時候，現在是拯救生命避免他們現在因著肉體死亡而無法避免下地獄命運的時候了，主耶穌基督為了救援我們，不惜替我們的罪背起了十字架，然而我們得救的人就只是苟安於自己的平安嗎?主救援了我們，而我們卻不肯去救援那些主所愛的人，各位知道主有多傷心嗎?

代禱信~
一封值得信任的朋友轉寄的信~也表達了我的心情
台灣人真的要更多的改變才行................
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
親愛的我的朋友，您好:
附件的文章，是我們教會的牧師寫的，想要跟你分享。其實我在今年七月的時候我就有夢到台灣會地震，那時候的夢很真實，夢醒的時候，整顆心都還很緊張地砰砰跳，有預感要更多為台灣來禱告才行。
從今年起看到世界越來越多的災禍，連電影都拍出世界末日的內容，跟聖經裡面的預言相符合。各教會的牧師也領受到很多啟示，包括接下來台灣會發生的患難，以及世界即將會發生的事情，提醒我們要趕緊預備!
其實很早之前就想要跟我所認識、所愛的人分享這個部份，但是遲遲不敢說，因為覺得你們一定很難相信~
但是前幾個禮拜開始台灣真的發生地震，我的內心真的很難過，也真的覺得如果我不跟你分享的話，我真的對不起我的良心~~~
希望你可以用一點時間，仔細地看完這篇文章，並ㄧ起真誠地為台灣禱告吧!!!

上帝的預言—中部地區(彰化、雲林、嘉義)將會有大災難發生!
一位牧師於2009/10/11 (日) 3:00-4:00am 領受的啟示:
孩子啊，我有話對你們說。
我是耶和華神。
我的愛子已為你的民族釘上十字架，
你們的民族已惡貫滿盈，應當審判了！
……………………………………
中部將遭受大審判！
中部雲林、嘉義一帶，彰化也不例外！
那裡沒有我的愛人，我不知道如何原諒！
妳要傳達給你們民族 叫他們徹底地悔改吧！
我必速執行！ 像羅得一樣，把你們家人帶出來吧！
詩7:11 神是公義的審判者，又是天天向惡人發怒的神。 結7:27 君要悲哀，王要披淒涼為衣，國民的手都發顫。我必照他們的行為待他們，按他們應得的審判他們，他們就知道我是耶和華。 結39:21 我必顯我的榮耀在列國中；萬民就必看見我所行的審判與我在他們身上所加的手。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
各位親愛的台灣同胞:
創造宇宙天地萬物的上帝是全知全能的造物主，上帝賜給我們生命與靈魂，為的是讓我們在生活中學習上帝的真理與愛，建造地上天國的生活，進而讓我們的靈魂獲得永生，進入天國享受上帝為我們預備的豐盛恩賜!
但是台灣人卻長期以來不認識上帝，並陷入世俗的慾望與偶像崇拜之中(偶像是靈界中的靈，但並不是賦予我們生命、創造我們的上帝，沒有能力帶我們去天國，也不能救我們脫離地獄)。如今我們看到台灣傷痕累累、病兆四起、災難連連，如果我們再不覺醒改變，就即將落入無盡的痛苦與破滅之中了。人所種下的惡因變成惡果反撲我們，但是這並不只是自然災害而已，其中還有上帝的審判。
在此呼籲大家:1.離棄世俗與自我的私慾 2.離棄拜偶像、行邪淫的作為 3.真誠的在上帝面前，奉主耶穌基督的名悔改自己的罪與台灣的罪(如果我們沒有罪的話，台灣也不可能變成罪惡橫行的島嶼)，接納耶穌基督成為自己的救主並且請求上帝原諒赦免這地上的人民。 4.學習主耶穌的教導，潔淨自己，成為足以迎接主的新婦，迎接主的再臨!
上帝已經在台灣立起守望者(先知)了，主正在將即將要發生在我們身上的事情告訴我們，請不要認為這只是一個宣傳的手法，許多的牧者看到災難的異象，而上帝也直接以言語啟示給我們，接下來要發生災難的地方就是中部彰雲嘉地區，並且將速速發生。
親愛的台灣同胞們!請不要以為這是威脅恐嚇，這一切都是真的，如果我們願意在上帝面前痛痛悔改，尋求他的道，或許上帝會後悔，不將這災難降在我們身上，上帝也會救援我們的民族，醫治這地上的一切災病。

Eucharist 聖餐式
隆重的聖餐式~
當牧師穿白色牧師袍走出來時就感動得想哭
因為感覺到耶穌穿著這聖潔的白袍來到我們當中
記得之前在紐約的三一教堂看過大家魚貫而出向牧師領聖餐
在英國的教會也同大家一同吃過餅喝過葡萄汁
卻一直不了解這樣的意義和目的
只覺得這是一個儀式
(天主教教會是每周在禮拜時都會有領聖餐的儀式)
但這次是不同的!
當耶穌提到很想要接受新婦們的聖餐後，
老師很仔細的教導聖餐式的旨意與意義並要我們提前做準備，讓自己在屬靈屬肉上都要潔淨，
聖靈大大的動工感動在場的每一個人
很多人得到很深的體會，也有兩位弟兄姊妹因著聖靈充滿而開了方言，其中一位才受洗不久就得到了方言的恩賜。
聖靈的九個恩賜:
哥林多前書12:7-11 聖靈顯在各人身上，是叫人得益處。這人蒙聖靈賜他智慧的言語，那人也蒙這位聖靈賜他知識的言語，又有一人蒙這位聖靈賜他信心，還有一人蒙這位聖靈賜他醫病的恩賜，又叫一人能行異能，又叫一人能作先知，又叫一人能辨別諸靈，又叫一人能說方言，又叫一人能翻方言。這一切都是這位聖靈所運行、隨己意分給各人的。
在人看來是不可能的，在神看來卻是易如反掌 a piece of cake。
向神懇求吧，倉庫中的一切都是給你的只怕你不禱告不祈求。
我自己得到象徵耶穌的肉體的餅時，聽到「這是我的身體」時，內心激動不已淚流不止。
想到耶穌為所愛的人們而犧牲自己寶貴的肉體，
背負著萬民沉重的罪的十字架成為代罪羔羊，
這是何等犧牲的愛!
一般人可以為了父母愛人子女犧牲自己就很了不起了，
而耶穌是為了全人類甚至恨惡他釘他上十字架的人都愛他們並原諒他們所有的罪，
也因為這樣的愛我們的靈魂可以因此得到愛的救援。
哥林多前書11:23-34 我當日傳給你們的，原是從主領受的，就是主耶穌被賣的那一夜，拿起餅來，祝謝了，就擘開，說：「這是我的身體，為你們捨（有古卷：擘開）的，你們應當如此行，為的是記念我。」飯後，也照樣拿起杯來，說：「這杯是用我的血所立的新約，你們每逢喝的時候，要如此行，為的是記念我。」你們每逢喫這餅，喝這杯，是表明主的死，直等到他來。所以，無論何人，不按理喫主的餅，喝主的杯，就是干犯主的身、主的血了。人應當自己省察，然後喫這餅、喝這杯。因為人喫喝，若不分辨是主的身體，就是吃喝自己的罪了。

束縛與自由
紐約回國兩個禮拜，
由台灣什麼都好的蜜月期逐漸轉變成結婚後的磨合期，
最明顯的是所住的家裡：昨天因為晚回家被鎖在家門口，外面下著雨真不知道怎麼又發生這樣的事情。還好後來得入家門不至於在外飄蕩，又被疲勞轟炸到一點多都不能睡，還被要求簽定不平等條款，因為住在人家的屋簷下必須遵守主人的規定，當初答應回家住因為有人承諾不再如從前般管我，沒多久就知道被騙了，早知道就不要答應搬回家來住!
天下父母心，
父母對小孩子的愛和關懷轉變成孩子的負擔，
因為不了解心情甚至用自己的想法覺得孩子是自己的財產必須聽老人言，
雖說家有家規但對於親情總有點有理說不清，更不想吵，到最後也變成不想說了，
因為多說無益。
對於年輕人有太多事情要做，工作上很多要學習要適應要挑戰的，
老人家希望子女常在身邊陪伴並常常覺得愛的不足感，體會到婆媳問題源於此。
自己習慣一個人自由自在的，做想做的事情，學想學的，並按著良心順著理致來行。
相信自己因為神的引導不會走叉路。
但對於某些人而言過於自由放縱是不適當的所以有了拘束，
雖適當的拘束是合宜的，但首先必須讓人心服，否則只是又一次的傷害。

烏干達的轉變
今天看到一部外國影片內容提到烏干達這個非洲小國的復興轉變
簡直像是現代版的尼尼微城
非常的感動及引人深思，分享給大家
http://video.neighbouronline.com/org/nimenqu/transform22.wmv
一個AIDS不斷攀升，政治獨裁戰亂不斷，崇拜巫術的國家
因著神的動工和拯救，成為非洲明珠!
當我正想著為何神要這樣大大的展開神蹟幫助這樣不起眼的貧窮國家時?
影片的最後提到了:
Because He was Invited !
因著人們不斷的禱告懇求神的聖靈
因此神也大大的動工
醫治了372位AIDS患者讓他們痊癒
政治上神使用正直的人
改變了整個國家
1999年12月
第一夫人推行「把烏干達獻給神一千年」的新年慶祝活動
由總統和全民一同承諾由神來統治這個國家
一個非洲的小國漸漸的嶄露頭角
脫胎換骨成為新造的國家
簡直像是現代版的尼尼微城
非常的感動及引人深思，分享給大家

新工作 新體會
2009.11.10
早上才向襄理報名要考國際信用狀專家執照(CDCS)
下午就得到調到授信的機會
國內授信的經歷一直是我入行九年所欠缺的
感謝神透過人天使來幫助
讓我從國外回來沒多久就可以往新領域去學習!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks for Janet in NY sharing this to me...
1.下次如果覺得自己了不起時，試試行在水上。
2.當魔鬼提起你的過去時，請提醒牠的未來。
3.你不是幸運，是蒙福。
4.若想要真正活著，得先徹底死去。
5.機會也許只敲一次門，但試探卻總是在按門鈴。
6.我們常在強壯時，忘了神。
7.那些只在星期天呼喚"天父"的人，在一星期餘下的日子裏活得像孤兒。
8.不要以自我為中心，要以基督為中心。
9.沒有基督，沒有平安；認識基督，得到平安。
（No Christ, no peace; know Christ, know peace）
10.為什麼我們不常向朋友提起神？因為我們不常向神提起我們的朋友。
11.當把你的一切獻給基督，因為祂把祂的一切都給了你。
12.你現在所追求的，值得基督為它死嗎？（好問題…）
13.使你向神靠近的人，是你真正的朋友。
14.神愛我們，不是因為我們是怎樣一個人，而是因為祂是怎樣一位神。
15.神的應許像夜空裏的星星。夜越深，星星的光芒越亮。
16.沒有基督的生命，是無望的盡頭。有基督的生命，是無盡的盼望。
17.我雖不知道未來掌管著什麼，但我知道誰掌管著未來。
18.把你的重擔交給主，讓它留在主那裏。
19.不要畏懼明天，因為上帝已在那裏。
20.當你除了神，一無所有時，你將知道神就是你全部的需要。
21.放手交給上帝，別再向神講述你的風暴有多大，當向風暴講述你的神有多大。
22.能夠滿足人心的，是造人心的那一位。
23.請常常保持著你心裏的光，因為你不知道，誰會藉著這光走出黑暗。
24.當我們只顧工作的時候，我們獨自工作；當我們祈禱的時候，神工作。
25.神無所不在，所以我們可以隨處禱告。
26.一個沒有需要的人永遠見不到神跡。
27.敬拜提醒我們生命的價值，但世界卻使我們忘記它。
28.步履艱難的時候，別一味的禱告，卻不邁向神要你走的路。
29.禱告會為我們作很多事，憂慮同樣可以。
早上才向襄理報名要考國際信用狀專家執照(CDCS)
下午就得到調到授信的機會
國內授信的經歷一直是我入行九年所欠缺的
感謝神透過人天使來幫助
讓我從國外回來沒多久就可以往新領域去學習!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks for Janet in NY sharing this to me...
1.下次如果覺得自己了不起時，試試行在水上。
2.當魔鬼提起你的過去時，請提醒牠的未來。
3.你不是幸運，是蒙福。
4.若想要真正活著，得先徹底死去。
5.機會也許只敲一次門，但試探卻總是在按門鈴。
6.我們常在強壯時，忘了神。
7.那些只在星期天呼喚"天父"的人，在一星期餘下的日子裏活得像孤兒。
8.不要以自我為中心，要以基督為中心。
9.沒有基督，沒有平安；認識基督，得到平安。
（No Christ, no peace; know Christ, know peace）
10.為什麼我們不常向朋友提起神？因為我們不常向神提起我們的朋友。
11.當把你的一切獻給基督，因為祂把祂的一切都給了你。
12.你現在所追求的，值得基督為它死嗎？（好問題…）
13.使你向神靠近的人，是你真正的朋友。
14.神愛我們，不是因為我們是怎樣一個人，而是因為祂是怎樣一位神。
15.神的應許像夜空裏的星星。夜越深，星星的光芒越亮。
16.沒有基督的生命，是無望的盡頭。有基督的生命，是無盡的盼望。
17.我雖不知道未來掌管著什麼，但我知道誰掌管著未來。
18.把你的重擔交給主，讓它留在主那裏。
19.不要畏懼明天，因為上帝已在那裏。
20.當你除了神，一無所有時，你將知道神就是你全部的需要。
21.放手交給上帝，別再向神講述你的風暴有多大，當向風暴講述你的神有多大。
22.能夠滿足人心的，是造人心的那一位。
23.請常常保持著你心裏的光，因為你不知道，誰會藉著這光走出黑暗。
24.當我們只顧工作的時候，我們獨自工作；當我們祈禱的時候，神工作。
25.神無所不在，所以我們可以隨處禱告。
26.一個沒有需要的人永遠見不到神跡。
27.敬拜提醒我們生命的價值，但世界卻使我們忘記它。
28.步履艱難的時候，別一味的禱告，卻不邁向神要你走的路。
29.禱告會為我們作很多事，憂慮同樣可以。

變與不變
2009.10.27 結束了近一年的紐約實習生涯，搭上華航飛越半個地球回到了熟悉的故鄉~台灣。
一下飛機攝氏24度的高溫等著我，有點無法適應，畢竟紐約的十月已零度左右的紀錄，冬天的大衣毛衣和暖爐都已經拿出來使用了。不過心情是很高興的，由冬天轉到夏天，感覺是賺到的夏天，穿著短袖享受著溫暖的陽光。
踏進久違的房間，所有的擺設飾如一年前離開的模樣，天呀，一年當中所有的物品依舊在且都可以用，但自己在這一年中所經歷所看見及所體會的已經有不同的層次了。
這是第一個變與不變。
到了公司後，先去亞太中心，看到舊同事覺得非常的親切，這一年中很多人事的變動，未來要如何走也是個未定數，自己也將調往別的單位，工作上也是一個轉換。回到國外部外匯組算是重操舊業，不過相信這其中有神的安排且應該也有新的需要學習的地方。
這是第二個變與不變。
走進教會，朋友們訝異我的到來，一年彷如昨日，一切如此的熟悉絲毫無半點生疏。看到很多新加入教會的年輕朋友很努力的學習神愛著神，教會一片欣欣向榮也即將搬到更大更適合的地點。看到大家的成長和改變，神實現了某位姐妹的夢想了~教會有了新的BAND，唱讚美歌時特別的有感覺，哈利路亞~Hallelujah~
這是回台後所發現的第三個變與不變
人們說妳變了亦或說你沒有變耶!
不變的是這顆愛神愛人的心
變的是因為不斷學習所以不斷成長的身心靈!

採蘋果
襄理帶我們去賞楓、採蘋果，西點軍校等一日遊。
真的太感謝神了，原本說有百分之七十的降雨機率，卻是很棒的天氣，下一點雨也是在車上沒有妨礙到。
我們先到紐約上州的Rockland county- Bear Mt. State park賞楓。可惜不夠冷所以還是黃綠偏多偶有一簇紅。公園中有個熱心男士幫我們取景照相，我們離開時還叫我回去:You miss something, bring your camera, 原來是穿著警察裝和囚犯裝的兩隻狗，
之後去西點軍校，很嚴格，ICNY的學生證不能當Photo ID,所以不能參加他的TOUR。
不過West Point Museum是免費的，有真人穿著軍裝擺攤位，並有真的武器槍枝大炮讓我們可以實際體驗，對女生而言真的蠻重的5磅的槍枝及20多磅的連環槍。很Nice的講說員，耐心的解釋各種武器還說Thanks for coming.
New Paltz的 Dressel Farm是今天的重頭戲，我們坐稻草車至FUJI蘋果區，咬下去就噴汁並可看見紅黃色的果肉如蜜般甜，0.95一磅，採了25顆才11元。在裡面吃不用錢，試吃了四五顆發現邊際效用遞減是有道理的，還有PAW，如爪般可以採到高處的蘋果，心理學來說高的好像比較甜美。實戰經驗發現很甜的那棵果樹幾乎都被人採光，好樹結好果。結實纍纍且品種多真是豐收。
農場另有超級大南瓜，是萬聖節必備的Pumpkin裝飾，幾乎家家門前都有放幾顆，很有氣氛。

writing 10- Packing
2009.10.14 writing 10 –
Topic: Packing
Two weeks until I am backing home. To me 11 months and 6 days in New York are like a dream as Alice in the wonderland. Alice goes to New York, the Big Apple of the world and finds that she looks at things in different ways.
First of all, she saw a group of people who are willing to devote their free time to help foreigners. In the International Center New York (ICNY), many volunteers come here to be conversation partners or writing partners of foreigners; it makes it easier for them to improve their English ability and get used to the Big Apple. Even jobless people come to be volunteers as well; it is so abnormal from the Asian’s point of view.
Second, there are so many free events in New York City. The Thanksgiving Parade, New Year fireworks, Shakespeare in the Park, Museum Mile and openhousenewyork, etc. Though in the economic downturn, many companies cannot donate as much as usual, they still keep the tradition which makes New York has such a colorful culture life.
Third, working in the financial area of downtown Manhattan is a new experience. Wall Street, Trinity Church are no longer the names in a movie. While walking along the financial district, I feel man is so small compared to the skyscrapers. After 9/11, the World Trade Center collapsed, but a new center is under construction. Economic cycles go u p and down, firms open and close, new people will come in anyway. New York is always vivid and energetic.
Fourth, prayer in the city. There are so many churches in NYC. They hold a unified prayer meeting in Times Square, the heart of Manhattan; Manhattan is the center of NY, NY is the center of America, and the USA is the center of the whole world now. It is so meaningful and I am so surprised to see so many people gather on the street to pray and praise God because it is so hard to see this kind of outdoor event in Taiwan. People from different countries, different regions come here only to pray to God together. We pray to the Lord to forgive our sins and pray for the nation and the youth; I feel this country is full of hope and blessing, because from the President, the Mayor to the ordinary people, they pray! Most people know God and have the chance to go to church and learn about the Bible, it makes a difference.
All in all, this is the year of change for Alice in New York. I gained a lot and learned a lot from this city. I have packed all the love from God and people around me, and I appreciate everything I met or encountered to make me grow up and expand my horizons.

Topic: A girl in Jeans
When I was working in the nature temple, I saw a girl wearing jeans and standing among a group of people wearing formal white clothing I went to say hi to her because she was a first time visitor. I told her that I was really busy and would only be able to say a few words to her. I said, “Listen to my words really well and be sure to believe them. No matter what happens, follow me because Jesus sent you. Today I came here to meet you. Besides, whenever there are large assemblies, be sure to come on your own, listen to my sermons, stay till the end and leave after saying goodbye. Okay?” she replied yes.
After that meeting that girl participated in every assembly and remained. I greeted her if she waited till the end and asked her to eat with us because we always went to the restaurant to eat afterwards. She told me she was going to leave without eating. I told her, “Didn’t I tell you during our first meeting that you should stay till the end and follow even if no one tells you to do this?” Therefore, she always stayed till the end.
One time she came during an assembly. I saw her face when we were playing soccer on the field after Sunday service but didn’t see her face by the time we were finished. I thought, “She left since no one was taking care of her. In the beginning I told her to follow till the end but she just left.” I looked in all directions but couldn’t find her anywhere. Mumbling to myself, “She’s tall. So she’s easy to spot…” Everyone was waiting so I said, “Dummy, she left,” and got into my car. She was sitting in the back seat of my car.
“Who told you to ride this car?” She said, “I got in. You told me to follow you till the end, right?” I told her, “Good. I thought you left today without saying goodbye. Eat before you go. Don’t worry about transportation because someone will drive you home.”
You must manage them solidly like this and tell them exactly what they must do. Then they will carry out their responsibilities and will not rely on others. If you teach them what they must do and manage them only in areas that require care and management, they will do everything needed.
After going through various hardships for more than 7 years and after being trained and maturing, the girl became a leader and a revival speaker and was able to preach the Lord’s deep heart and move people’s hearts. Like this girl in jeans, all of us do not know how the Lord will use us, but all we need to do is to follow the Lord’s teaching and obey it until the end. We do not know the Lord’s purpose for us during the process, but we need to carry out our own responsibilities and then we will realize this is why Jesus loves us so much and raise us until now.

OpenHousenewyork Weekend
10.10-11 紐約開門
The seventh Annual openhouse new york weekend. It shows the NYC's rich and diverse architectural, design and cultural heritage.
I joined the tour of Woodlawn Cemetery, Hall of Fame for great Americans in Bronx Community College and Grand Lodge of Masons.
the photos are in Picasa: http://picasaweb.google.com/alicehua0512/2009NY#
1 Woodlawn is in Bronx, the last stop of four train.
爭取遺族的同意後，我們得以在導遊的帶領下進入外國人的陵墓(mausoleum)。有的內擺桌椅，讓訪客可以坐下來讀聖經，有的把心愛的寵物鳥放入一起作伴，有的是Tiffany玻璃，更有各國人從本國運來的石頭及裝飾，因此有各國各式樣的陵墓。很多名人有錢人住在裡面，可惜沒幾個認識的。
當我想著:死人多麼羨慕我們活著的人，希望我們來拜訪他，帶來生氣，所以開放讓我們欣賞她所住的地方，天空出現兩群候鳥，飛著成為微笑嘴型。紐約的早秋，楓葉開始轉紅，聽說這墓園連樹的造景都頗下功夫，按照時節會有何種顏色的組合都是種樹時的考量。
2 Hall of Fame of Great Americans
當我趕到名人堂時已將近五點關門時間。很幸運的是遇到很好的導遊正在為一對建築師夫婦講解。名人堂主要是知識及學術界的美國名人，同樣的除了總統之外我沒認識幾個人，聽說每年還會票選決定要拿掉哪些新增哪些銅像。
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_of_Fame_for_Great_Americans
3 Grand Lodge of Masons
紐約共濟會總堂，在ICNY附近，23 st+6 ave Masonic Hall
揭開神秘的色彩，共濟會的神秘一直是小說家的最愛，但他們一直有開放民眾參觀，富麗堂皇的聚會房間，每個都有其特色，有埃及風，法國風，義大利文藝復興風格等，但因為大同小異且其色調不是很討喜，所以我們跳過講解人員挑幾個有興趣的房間看看就離開。

2009.8.12 Writing -1 why to NY
New York is on the opposite side of the earth from my country, Taiwan, so when it is 12 noon in NY, it is midnight in Taiwan. Last November, my company chose me as one of four trainees to have a one-year job-training in our New York branch. With the blessing of my family and under the envious eyes of my colleagues, I started my first time trip to the Big Apple, New York.
Our company rents a house for us in Flushing. To my surprise, I do not need to use English in my daily life, because where I live and where I work, I can use Chinese as well. Especially in Flushing, everyone speaks in Chinese, and there are Chinese restaurants and Chinese supermarkets everywhere, it is not like living in America. But on the other hand, New York is the place of different races of people, which forms various cultures and makes this city so attractive.
The working hours here are less than in Taiwan, usually I do not have to work overtime, and thus I have much time to explore the city after work. As the summer arrives, day light lasts until 8 or 9 pm and many free events are held in NYC. I love the art performances very much. I enjoy the Broadway shows and musicals. Opera and all kinds of dance, ballet, and museums all open my eyes. I have had many brand new experiences here. For example, last week I went to one of my favorite places, Lincoln Center, which is the largest performing art centers in the world and has 12 organizations which present over 5,000 performances by artists from around the world. When I went to Avery Fisher Hall for the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, they gave me a "stage seat", because it is the cheapest seat so I went to the top floor, then the usher told me, your seat is in the orchestra, so I went back to the first floor to my seat "on the stage", which faced the audience and the conductor but was behinded the orchestra members. What a different view to the music performance! I like the conductor, French-Canadian Yannick's performance; this was his New York debut. And the music was so colorful with various feelings: happy, sad, angry, and merry. The man next to me told me that though it started at 8:00pm, they provide pre-concert recitals at 7:00pm, which is also good and like a special gift to the audience. The whole night, I was soaked into Mozart’s beautiful melody elicited by the Maestro’s. What a wonderful and abundant art city is New York!
In a word, I like New York, except the subway. To see Shakespeare in the Park, Museum Mils, Philharmonic concert and opera in the park expand my horizon of life.
Furthermore, my company gave me a chance to study English in ICNY two afternoons a week. At ICNY I can meet different people and makes friend around the world. Besides, I can learn American culture through the volunteers; I am so thankful that I can be in New York and cherish the once in the life time experience.

The happiest thing and the saddest thing happened to me in New York
As a foreigner living in the world’s Big Apple, New York, I experience many different things; sometimes it makes me happy; sometimes it upsets me.
The happiest thing for me is the subway system operated without any abnormal situation or accident. Then I can be on time to my office. Because I live in Flushing, the only way to my office is to take the number seven train and transfer to four or five train. However, the # seven trains always have problems and take me twice the time to get to work among the crowds of people. If I can have a seat, it is my day. I am so happy and satisfied with it.
Something upset me recently. Usually I buy an unlimited metro card for commuting. Though it is cheaper, it would be a big loss if I lost it. Besides, the metro card itself may have some problems as well. For example, my metro card had problem since I first used it on the bus, but it was fine in the subway turnstile. It bothers me so much, because I have to explain to the bus driver about my card’s problem. Most of bus drivers will say go ahead; but some bus drivers kick me out off the bus because my card does not work in the machine. I do not want to pay the extra 2.25 dollars after riding the subway home, so I have to walk home. When I asked the person working for the MTA in the subway, he just replied, “It is the bus machine’s problem, your card works with the subway machine. I can do nothing about this.” Therefore, I have to use this problematic card with a trembling heart to try the bus machine.
I like to travel; New York definitely is heaven for the traveler. Last Saturday, I went to one of the seven must see sites in the U.S.A. – The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The crown closed after 9/11 and reopened to the public on Independence Day this year.
At the beginning, I wanted to climb the crown after the summer vacation rush, but when I booked it on the Internet, I found it is not available until December. So I just bought the regular ticket to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. It took me more than one and half hours to line up and pass the security check twice. But I felt it was worthwhile. I climbed the helical staircases to the 10 floor high ground level of the monument; it is a great view to downtown Manhattan and Ellis Island. The crown represents the seven seas and seven continents of the world. I realized how great a job it was for the artists to work on this giant statue. The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France on Oct. 28th, 1886 to represent the two countries’ friendship after the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence. “It represents a woman wearing a stola, a radiant crown and sandals, trampling a broken chain, carrying a torch in her raised right hand and a tabula ansata tablet, where the date of the Declaration of Independence JULY IV MDCCLXXVI is inscribed, on her left arm. Standing on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, it welcomes visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans traveling by ship.” According to the introduction sheet.
Then I went to Ellis Island and the immigration museum. From 1892 to 1954, about 12 million people passed through this gate to America. I saw many immigrates landing with big smiles, because they came far away from their home country to America to fulfill their dream. And this is the last gate after a long journey.
This is the fundamental spirit of America, this is the place where people came from different countries and contributed to this land with their own dream. Among those who came here for freedom, Protestants came here for religious freedom, and helped the country to build based on God’s word. For example, on all the USD bills, we can see “In God We Trust”; the presidential oath ends with “So help me God”. Also the witness has to swear on the Bible before testifying in court. All prove that God helps this country to grow with prosperity as most of the people in this country believe and respect God.
Though some bad experiences have happened to me, most of them are good memories and make me enjoy my time in New York. It is time to leave; the autumn is the season of separation. And it is time to say goodbye, New York.
The happiest thing and the saddest thing happened to me in New York
As a foreigner living in the world’s Big Apple, New York, I experience many different things; sometimes it makes me happy; sometimes it upsets me.
The happiest thing for me is the subway system operated without any abnormal situation or accident. Then I can be on time to my office. Because I live in Flushing, the only way to my office is to take the number seven train and transfer to four or five train. However, the # seven trains always have problems and take me twice the time to get to work among the crowds of people. If I can have a seat, it is my day. I am so happy and satisfied with it.
Something upset me recently. Usually I buy an unlimited metro card for commuting. Though it is cheaper, it would be a big loss if I lost it. Besides, the metro card itself may have some problems as well. For example, my metro card had problem since I first used it on the bus, but it was fine in the subway turnstile. It bothers me so much, because I have to explain to the bus driver about my card’s problem. Most of bus drivers will say go ahead; but some bus drivers kick me out off the bus because my card does not work in the machine. I do not want to pay the extra 2.25 dollars after riding the subway home, so I have to walk home. When I asked the person working for the MTA in the subway, he just replied, “It is the bus machine’s problem, your card works with the subway machine. I can do nothing about this.” Therefore, I have to use this problematic card with a trembling heart to try the bus machine.

因為要通過兩次的安全檢查光排隊就花了一兩個小時
不過還是很值得，從底座那眺望曼哈頓的高樓們，真的很壯觀
不過還是很值得，從底座那眺望曼哈頓的高樓們，真的很壯觀
且體會了作品真的要大才顯得雄壯，人人仰而望之。
這是美國的立國精神-遠離家園為了追尋自由的夢想國度
其中最有名的是清教徒的追求信仰的自由而建立了這個以神為本的國家
In God We Trust-- on all USD Bills
So help me God-- 美國總統歷年就任之宣誓詞。
Ellis Island: 1892-1954
About 12 million people passed through this gate to America,
目前成為博物館，展示過去來自各國的移民者的生活軌跡和日用品等
看到很多帶著夢想般笑容登陸的移民者，大老遠並風塵僕僕的搭船來到美國
為了追求人生的夢想，也忍不住發出會心的微笑。

The Statue of Liberty dedicated on October 28, 1886, is a monument commemorating the centennial of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence, given to the United States by the people of France to represent the friendship between the two countries established during the American Revolution. It represents a woman wearing a stola, a radiant crown and sandals, trampling a broken chain, carrying a torch in her raised right hand and a tabula ansata tablet, where the date of the Declaration of Independence JULY IV MDCCLXXVI is inscribed, in her left arm.
Standing on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, it welcomes visitors, immigrants, and returning Americans traveling by ship.[8] Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi sculpted the statue[9] and obtained a U.S. patent for its structure.[10] Maurice Koechlin—chief engineer of Gustave Eiffel's engineering company and designer of the Eiffel Tower—engineered the internal structure. Eugène Viollet-le-Duc was responsible for the choice of copper in the statue's construction and adoption of the repoussé technique, where a malleable metal is hammered on the reverse side.[11]
Worldwide, the Statue of Liberty is one of the most recognizable icons of the United States[12] and was, from 1886 until the jet age, often one of the first glimpses of the United States for millions of immigrants after ocean voyages from Europe.
The statue is the central part of Statue of Liberty National Monument, administered by the National Park Service.
The statue, also known affectionately as "Miss Liberty" (and "Lady Liberty") "the Lady", has become a symbol of freedom and liberty. Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi also created another "Lady Liberty" which is displayed in Paris, France.

Writing 7
Writing 7-090923 The Love and Tears of Jesus: Why We Need to Love Jesus.
There are more than 1.6 billion Christians in the world and among these countries, America has the highest Christian population; 76 % of Americans identify themselves as Christian. Though we all know that Jesus is one of the Trinity-the Holy Son, who is the almighty and all-knowing divine being; numerous angels in Heaven worship him, and he is the king of kings who reigns the world. However, there are so many people who either do not know Jesus loves them, nor believe in Jesus.
There was a true story happened on April 20, 1999. In the Columbine High School in Colorado, two teen-age gunmen shot Rachel in her leg and asked her if she still believed in God. She replied, “You know I do!” then the second fatal shot hit her head at point-blank range. At the end, 13 people died in these shootings. The 17 year-old-girl protected her Christian belief even at the live or die point. After her martyrdom, many students went back to church and wore the T-shirt saying I believe in Jesus. Her death inspired a lot of people and changed their lives to the day. The girl showed her love for Jesus and died for him without fear.
The above story reminded me of a book: “A Divine Appeal.” This book was written by Anna Ali in 1987-1988. Sister Anna mentioned in her book that Jesus cried for mankind. Jesus started to visit her and gave her divine appeals in early August 1987 to 1988, around 2:30am to 3:00am after she kept 7 hours in overnight prayer for several years. Jesus told Anna “I pour tears and blood over humanity.” Why does Jesus love us so much even to die for us? Jesus said, "I need every soul as if it was the only one on earth." How could it happen to us? The possibility is as small as a prince who falls in love with the village girl, wants to marry her and takes her to his palace. Because Jesus was born as a human being, he knows the pain and the joy of mankind, so as a divine being in Heaven, Jesus has special connections with us as human beings. He loves us so much and is not willing to let his beloved people go to Hell when they not believe in him. The Bible clearly mentioned that, (John 14:6) Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” On the other hand, Jesus wants us not to be deceived by Satan and enjoy every worldly thing then go to Hell at the end of the day. Jesus told Anna, "I have two measures for every soul. The first is of Mercy and it has overflowed. The second is of Justice, it is approaching." If we do not repent our sins when the Lord gives mercy on us, the judgment will come. Though someone may be afraid to be judged and feels forced to believe in Jesus, the most important is to know Jesus loves us and will forgive our sins if we truly repent. That is great love! "I want to save mankind. This is the time of overwhelming violence. Pray for My Church. Beware! Woe to those who tell only lies. I am very sad and My Heart is filled with pain. Whoever frees his mind from mundane affairs and returns to My Love, will have forgiveness. I will embrace them and forgive their sins." Jesus said.
When we know how much power is the Lord’s love and how his love can bring us to Heaven instead of going to the eternal fire Hell, we will pray and follow Jesus’s example more in our daily lives, no matter how busy we are. Because prayer is the key to open all the doors, prayer is the only way to connect to the Lord. Jesus said, "I feel great pain to be neglected and ridiculed ….. Keep awake for the sake of sinners. Pray and cloister all in your heart.” And Jesus clearly said what is his expectation for us, "Pray a great deal. Do not lose any of your precious times; spend it with me for the salvation of souls. Put yourself in the high spirit of contemplation. Cloister mankind in your heart. I need your complete obedience. Follow and learn. This is what I want of you."

Prayer in the Square Day
(1)Today, we joined one of the biggest Christianity event in time square.
We prayed in the 46 st. and Broadway, which is the center of Manhattan; Manhattan is the center of NY, NY is the ceter of America, and the USA is the center of the whole world now.
I am so shocked to see so many people gather on street to pray and praise to God; because it is so hard to see this kind of ourdoor event in Taiwan. People from different countries, different regions came here only for praying to God together.
We pray to Lord to forgive our sins and pray for the nation and the youth; I feel this country is full of hope and blessing, because from the president, the mayor to the ordinary people, they pray! Most people know God and have the chance to go to church and learn about the Bible, it makes difference!
(2) http://www.everydaychristian.com/features/story/4755/
"By design this will be the third and final year of the rally, which may seem unusual considering its growth. Rhodes said between 8,000 and 10,000 people attended in 2007 and 18,000 came in 2008. Based on pre-event commitments between 30,000 and 50,000 are expected this year."
"264 churches in the tri-state area will be coming to pray, 62 youth groups and an estimated one hundred college ministries will be participating. 87 churches, 26 states and 19 countries, including Burundi, Pakistan, Kenya, United Kingdom, Benin, Singapore, and Israel, will pray via the live webcast at http://www.nycprayer.org/. "

The mayor of NYC, Michael Bloomberg proclaimed:
"Hosted by Times Square Church, “Prayer in the Square” provides an opportunity for all Christians – regardless of their age, race, gender, or denomination – to renew and deepen their commitment to our city’s spiritual community. In all our diversity, New Yorkers share an appreciation for the power of faith. After all, our city was built by people who came here in order to worship God freely. “Prayer in the Square” commemorates this legacy and celebrates our city’s rich tradition of cooperative spirituality.
Today, people from across the country of different denominations and backgrounds come together in their shared vision of a better world and their belief in the power of prayer to make a positive impact on us all. Since its establishment, this event has encouraged the faith of all those in attendance, celebrating their beliefs through praise and worship. With choir performances and prayers offered by church leaders and congregants alike, this hour is sure to be once again a powerful symbol of unity."
(4) 2 Chronicles:
7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
7:15
Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.

San Francisco, nice to see you again.
After 12 years I came back to San Francisco. During the flight, I tried to remember what happened 12 years ago, and figure out why I came to San Francisco again.
That was in 1997 when I was a freshman in college. My mom and I went to Dallas for a seminar, and on our way back home, we stopped in San Francisco to sightsee. Unfortunately, our airplane tickets were direct flight to Taiwan which meant we could not stop in S.F. Therefore, we were fined a lot of money and were short of cash in San Francisco. It was a hard time, we did not have money to buy food, and we stood in front of the supermarket like beggars to share plain bread. The experience was so bad that Mom and I kept having quarrels and felt upset at the same time. To make matters worse, I had got my baptism in the church right before we went to America, Mom was so angry that I did not tell her before she could stop me. In a word, it was a sad story I had in San Francisco.
This time, I came to San Francisco to join a retreat and to meet some church friends I knew before. At first, I thought I could stay with some Taiwanese friends. But they did not answer me and couldnot pick me up at SFO. Everything was so unsure and weird before I left New York, I felt so alone that I could only count on God. After an eight and half hours’ flight, I took the BART (air train in SF) to the place where my church friend could pick me up, and he arranged a place where I could stay. But this is a Korean family; their English is poor so they talked only in Korean which I cannot understand. But luckily, I went to church and listened to a very good sermon. It was about the love of Jesus.
The last day, one of the pastors took me to several famous tourist spots; we ate sea food in the Fisherman’s Wharf and went to see the famous trolley. He then showed me the curviest street (Lombard) in the world; it was designed for horses to carry heavy goods on the hill. We also went to the biggest Chinatown, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge. San Francisco is famous for its earthquake, Gold Rush, summer fog, seafood and nudist camps. I really enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the fine weather there. Also, we had barbeque in the park, where it was nice to talk and chat with friends.
My flight back to New York was an overnight flight. I took it and got five hours of sleep and went directly back to my job. Though I was a little tired, it saved time. In conclusion, through this trip I found myself and resolved the question I had 12 years ago, I am so appreciative of everything especially the happy ending.

2009.8.26-writing 3 ~Adopt from a speech by P. Sonu
Today is the last day of Holy Spirit assembly; the date was set by Jesus. Jesus will give the whole assembly message.
How much Jesus loves every American. Every single person can receive revelation. SSN sent so many messages to us and wanted to take care of everyone. We have to receive the Holy Spirit right now. Jesus takes care of every single person. This is the last chance at this time.
A church leader I know wants to evangelize, but other members of the church focus too much on their own benefits. Everyone has a desire to do well; she also works hard but now she wants to quit. Suffering for three months she prayed and wrote to SSN. He replied, “The church is run by Jesus and Jesus wants you to love him 100%, and then to love people.” She received energy from the letter and wanted to work even more. “The reason Jesus gave you a mission is to save you, and to receive salvation is the fundamental purpose. We should do a lot of good works, but when we do, it will make our hearts become too worldly.”
Jesus said, “Why are you looking for things you should have done? The first thing is to be humble. Your heart has been occupied by God, not to concentrate on yourself. What I want you to do is to love me 100 % and to believe I love you.”
“People do not have confidence without support from friends and family. For example, a pretty woman is pretty because she has confidence and believes guys love her 100%. Married people with a support spouse will have confidence. It is not that person who does the job, it is Jesus who does.” SSN told the church leader, “You have to have faith in people and wait for them to change. Just believe in them and they will change.”
All we do is not for the physical body but for spiritual. If we do not maintain our position, Satan will attack. One person said, “I will go back to my hometown and work for God there.” SSN said, “If you leave now, you will be in danger. You are here because JESUS calls you here. You have to maintain your position until JESUS gives you your next job.”
And you have to know how valuable we are! We go to church because we can receive salvation. We need to empty our heart, our worldly thoughts first. SSN keeps telling us to make yourself strong and make your spirit clean. We have to develop a repentant mentality. Through the message, you should not just taste it; you have to digest it. Nothing happens without investment of whole self. If you only work for the money, you get money. What kind of person are you? All of your dreams will come true. But you have to know what you wish for. The function of the eyes is not to envy the feet. Each of us has a mission for the Lord. Now is the time to love. God loves us so much. The most important thing is to restore the first love. What is the first love between you and Jesus? God said, “I love you the same way from the beginning to the end. If you do the same you will be able to restore love.”
The reason we go to church is for our salvation. It is not important if we cannot reach our goal, it is important to reach Jesus’s goal for us. Now is the time to prepare for Jesus’s second coming. The love of Jesus gives you confidence. You restore your love. He loves people more than himself. Jesus is our only hope, and let us be Jesus’s only hope.
Today is the last day of Holy Spirit assembly; the date was set by Jesus. Jesus will give the whole assembly message.
How much Jesus loves every American. Every single person can receive revelation. SSN sent so many messages to us and wanted to take care of everyone. We have to receive the Holy Spirit right now. Jesus takes care of every single person. This is the last chance at this time.

He replied, “The church is run by Jesus and Jesus wants you to love him 100%, and then to love people.” She received energy from the letter and wanted to work even more. “The reason Jesus gave you a mission is to save you, and to receive salvation is the fundamental purpose. We should do a lot of good works, but when we do, it will make our hearts become too worldly.”
Jesus said, “Why are you looking for things you should have done? The first thing is to be humble. Your heart has been occupied by God, not to concentrate on yourself. What I want you to do is to love me 100 % and to believe I love you.”
“People do not have confidence without support from friends and family. For example, a pretty woman is pretty because she has confidence and believes guys love her 100%. Married people with a support spouse will have confidence. It is not that person who does the job, it is Jesus who does.” SSN told the church leader, “You have to have faith in people and wait for them to change. Just believe in them and they will change.”
All we do is not for the physical body but for spiritual. If we do not maintain our position, Satan will attack. One person said, “I will go back to my hometown and work for God there.” SSN said, “If you leave now, you will be in danger. You are here because JESUS calls you here. You have to maintain your position until JESUS gives you your next job.”
And you have to know how valuable we are! We go to church because we can receive salvation. We need to empty our heart, our worldly thoughts first. SSN keeps telling us to make yourself strong and make your spirit clean. We have to develop a repentant mentality. Through the message, you should not just taste it; you have to digest it. Nothing happens without investment of whole self. If you only work for the money, you get money. What kind of person are you? All of your dreams will come true. But you have to know what you wish for. The function of the eyes is not to envy the feet. Each of us has a mission for the Lord. Now is the time to love. God loves us so much. The most important thing is to restore the first love. What is the first love between you and Jesus? God said, “I love you the same way from the beginning to the end. If you do the same you will be able to restore love.”
The reason we go to church is for our salvation. It is not important if we cannot reach our goal, it is important to reach Jesus’s goal for us. Now is the time to prepare for Jesus’s second coming. The love of Jesus gives you confidence. You restore your love. He loves people more than himself. Jesus is our only hope, and let us be Jesus’s only hope.

枴杖與我
第一次拿柺杖的人生體驗:
因為沒有做好準備及布鞋太軟，上禮拜天到中央公園玩足球時，右腳大拇指因為搶攻球門踢到腳趾頭瘀血如塗上藍色的指甲油，冰敷兩天後比較好，但昨天因怕下雨不敢穿涼鞋，穿鞋穿襪後因為束縛和摩擦變得很糟，感覺指甲一直很想脫離因為指頭不斷的腫脹，且小腿肚緊繃到麻痺，走出地鐵火車時，走路踉蹌不小心拍到前面的黑人女人，她不太高興以為我打她，我還得不斷解釋真的是因為腳受傷無法平衡不是故意的。
Connie提到可以向央行的JACK借正骨水和柺杖，(他2月時因為門口積雪成冰沒有掃好害他滑倒摔斷腿至五月都行動不便，現在才好了約95%)，Jack以著過來人的經驗，主動借我柺杖並教我如何走路和下樓梯。
拿柺杖走路比較不會痛了，拄著柺杖頓時變得很嚴重似的，雖然走路一樣慢，旁人都會多看我一眼，也特別會禮讓，如:司機先生用西班牙語向我問候、chase plaza的地鐵管理員很好心的幫我開緊急出口且說直到我百分百康復都可以不用刷卡進出地鐵，真是太感動。
沒想到美國人這麼好，很多人這麼有同情心同理心，很有愛心，不禁落淚，希望更多幫他們禱告不要被神審判到，更多傳道是基本解決之道。
也體會到受傷的人、生病的人、殘障者的痛苦和不便，對自己的健康和健全更加的感恩!
因為受傷所以更小心不要讓人二度傷害，體會不要讓主再臨時，二度受傷！

Writing 6
Recently, I took a class of writing, and had to write some homework. After revising by Helen, I put it on the net to share with you.
2009/9/15 writing 6 --Spirit and the body (summary and translation)
Many people in the world do not know they have a spirit body which will be kept alive after their physical body dies. They live lives with their own minds and do whatever they want in the world without knowing the spirit will suffer forever in the future. According to the Bible, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, “may the God of peace himself make you holy in every way; and may your spirit and soul and body be free from all sin at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” We know that as a human being, we have spirit, soul and body. God hopes we can learn how to live a righteous life and keep away from all sinful deeds in order to meet the second coming of our Lord Jesus.
Next, let’s talk about the body and the spirit. Our physical body is like a car and the spirit is like the person who is the owner. It means that the owner of the body is the spirit and the spirit is like the inner man. The Lord said, “Only those who are spiritual will receive me now and receive me at the time of the second coming. It is the spirit that receives me. People who receive me now will receive me at the second coming too.” It’s the spirit that goes to Heaven.
If we put apples, peaches, and various fruits in a bowl and leave them in a room, they will eventually rot. But if we eat them, then they will not rot. Instead, when they enter the body and are digested and absorbed then the key nutrients turn into flesh and bones. Once they become flesh and bones, they no longer rot. They are maintained for your lifetime. In this way our bodies are like the visible apples, peaches, and various fruits and foods. Once food is eaten it gets absorbed into our bodies and becomes flesh and bones. In the same way, when the body does acts of righteousness, the spirit absorbs that righteousness and transforms it into the spiritual body. The body changes every day like fruits left in a room becoming dry and rotten. The spirit must digest the body for the benefit of the spirit. Then the spirit will shine, become fat with grace, and become healthy. Therefore, the body must live for the spirit.
This world is a world where the body is valuable because we can't live without a physical body; while in the Kingdom of Heaven, it is the spirit that has value because that is a place we can't live without a spirit. Matthew 7:16-20 mentioned, “The Lord said that good fruits are produced by good trees and bad fruits are produced by bad trees. The body is like the tree and the spirit is like the fruits. The tree must be good, kind, and righteous, then the spirit becomes good and beautiful as well. The tree and the fruits are not separate from each other. They are one body. When a person dies, the mind and actions of their body are absorbed completely by the spirit's mind and body. And the spirit carries it away intact. It means all the nutrients absorbed by the tree go to the fruit. Therefore, the spirit absorbs the body's hard work, labor, actions, accomplishments, love and character, grows and matures through it, and takes them to heaven with it, but the body cannot go into Heaven. The Apostle Paul said, “Only the spiritual body can go into the Kingdom of Heaven. (1 Corinthians 15:31-53).”
In conclusion, both the body and the spirit are important; without the body, we can not learn the words from God and put them into practice and receive His grace. On the other hand, without the spirit, human beings are no different than animals; we can just eat, sleep and with no desire to upgrade or improve, because there is no hope, as the body perishes, everything ends. In a word, we need to pay more attention and make our physical body and spirit grow up to the point of God’s level and become a perfect being in order to go to the kingdom of Heaven.

另類生活體驗
US OPEN網球決賽進入倒數第三天~
感謝神，氣象報告說今天會有百分之六十的機率會下雨，還好是有風的陰天到了晚上才下雨。
看了三場決賽，女雙爭前二，混雙奪冠及男單爭前四。因為白天人不多，自己換到價格較貴的那一區，外國人人格也很好，也沒有趕我，逕自找其他的位置坐下。
Arthur Ashe Stadium:
一、 Women's Doubles - Semifinals
Serena Williams(USA)[4] / Venus Williams(USA)[4]
defeat
Alisa Kleybanova(RUS)[13] / Ekaterina Makarova(RUS)[13]
7-6(4); 3-6; 6-2
Rules:
For each match/tournament:
女生(單打雙打混雙)三盤兩勝制；男生五盤三勝。
每盤(Set)看誰先贏六局，每個局(game)看誰先得四分(points) (0-15-30-40-game) o is L'oeuf, 30:30 is 30 all.
如果一局中先出現各得3分時稱為「平分」，必須再淨勝2分才能算勝一局。
deuce is 40:40, then is advantage.
勝六局則算勝一盤。如果雙方各勝五局，同樣必須再淨勝2局才能算勝一盤。可採五盤三勝或三盤兩勝制。一盤六局制先勝六者為領先一盤，而一盤中如為五局平要連勝二局，打到六局平時要打搶七分制(Tie Break)。
雙打時，適用單打的方法。發球之順序是選手作第1分發球時要在右側，然後對方的發球者在左側和右側2分的發球。接下來由作第1分發球隊伍的另一選手作發球者，由左、右側作2分的發球。接下來在這局或盤結束之前，四位選手依單打的方法輪流，各作2分的發球，當然第6分結束時要換場
tie break結束。該局的比數就是7--6，先得到七分者為此局之勝者。
Ace: 發球直接得分 對方沒碰到球
二
Mixed Doubles - Finals
Carly Gullickson(USA) / Travis Parrott(USA)
def.
Cara Black(ZIM)[2] / Leander Paes(IND)[2]
6-2 6-4
三
Men's Singles - Quarterfinals
Juan Martin Del Potro(ARG)[6]
def.
Marin Cilic(CRO)[16]
4-6 6-3 6-2 6-1
看完球賽後去嘗試泰式洗髮，一種躺著洗頭的方式，約洗三十分鐘按摩三十分鐘，本以為25元算是合理，但結帳時因為還蠻滿意的所以給小費5元(20%)，不料卻聽到:我們的小費至少十元，因此付了11元(44%)才走出大門，當場有被坑的感覺。

Love is the forgiveness that covers all the faults.
There is love like a flame.
There is love like a lake that is filled with serenity.

Sep 5-7~ Let's go Outing- HW 5
Journey
Every year, our company holds an outing for employees and their families on Labor Day weekend. Though many companies cut thisoff budgets due to the recession, we still have it as usual. This year we went south to Pennsylvania and Baltimore. There were two coaches to bring us there.
The first day, our first stop was Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA. Longwood Gardens is one of the premier botanical gardens in America and it was started in 1906 by Pierre S. Du Pont. There are 20 outdoor gardens and 20 indoor gardens in the four-acre Conservatories. It contains more than 11,000 different types of plants and trees. It hosts 800 horticultural and performing arts events each year, including flower shows, fountain shows and musical recitals. We enjoyed our outdoor buffet lunch in the tent of the Terrace restaurant. Next stop was Baltimore, MD. We joined the tour and visited 4 historic ships in the Inner Harbor. Among them, I was impressed by USS Torsk, a small submarine but able to contain with 188 people inside; they got the best food, such as lobster, because if the submarine is in danger, none of them can survive in the deep sea.
The second day, in the morning, we went to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. I liked the new exhibit, Jellies Invasion. The name is so cool and makes me think about the aliens from space. The Jellies were so beautiful, some of them were transparent and some were colorful. The Dolphins show was interesting as well; I sat in the first row which is the splash zone to get the best view of the cute and tame mammal. Dolphins have the second biggest brain among the animals, just smaller than human beings and that is why they are so smart. After eating the famous crab cake in McCormick and Schmicks seafood restaurant in the Inner Harbor, we went to Hershey's Chocolate World; it is the biggest chocolate factory in the world. We ate a lot of chocolates and enjoyed the history tour of the chocolate town by trolley. Milton S. Hershey built the Hershey kingdom after two big failures, but he tried again undaunted and it worked on the third time. He also built public schools and helped orphaned boy to get a better education and job opportunities in his town.
The third day, we spent at Woodloch resort in Hawley, PA and participated in the activities in the resort. It was a very relaxing day. I biked in the forest and could not stop on the downhill; I bumped the cart in front of me while racing the car; I got really wet when I played bumper boat and shooting game; I walked on the sand with my naked feet; I got lost and could not catch up with the ferry. There are so many things that can be done in the resort, but the time is short to finish them all.
In conclusion, I am so thankful to have had this chance to go out with my colleagues, and know their families better. Also I give thanks to my boss Jeff Cheng, who was willing to offer this trip while other companies cut their budgets. Above all, I really want to thank God for giving us such great weather during the three days; people said it usually rains at least one day during the Labor Day weekend. I am so happy and will remember this memorable outing while I was working in New York.

Dolphins have the second biggest brain among the animals, just smaller than human beings and that is why they are so smart. After eating the famous crab cake in McCormick and Schmicks seafood restaurant in the Inner Harbor, we went to Hershey's Chocolate World; it is the biggest chocolate factory in the world. We ate a lot of chocolates and enjoyed the history tour of the chocolate town by trolley. Milton S. Hershey built the Hershey kingdom after two big failures, but he tried again undaunted and it worked on the third time. He also built public schools and helped orphaned boy to get a better education and job opportunities in his town.
The third day, we spent at Woodloch resort in Hawley, PA and participated in the activities in the resort. It was a very relaxing day. I biked in the forest and could not stop on the downhill; I bumped the cart in front of me while racing the car; I got really wet when I played bumper boat and shooting game; I walked on the sand with my naked feet; I got lost and could not catch up with the ferry. There are so many things that can be done in the resort, but the time is short to finish them all.
In conclusion, I am so thankful to have had this chance to go out with my colleagues, and know their families better. Also I give thanks to my boss Jeff Cheng, who was willing to offer this trip while other companies cut their budgets. Above all, I really want to thank God for giving us such great weather during the three days; people said it usually rains at least one day during the Labor Day weekend. I am so happy and will remember this memorable outing while I was working in New York.

搏蚊記
8.30 晚上近十一點時，為了打在天花板的一隻蚊子，我從椅子上摔了下來。
看到蚊子被我打中並"摔死了"，對自己的肉體說:爬起來!
但肉體很痛，整個右半身重擊於地板，剛開始只能痛苦呻吟很沉重的慢慢調整呼吸，
之後爬起來檢查傷口，右半身很多地方都瘀血了。
其實自己的運動細胞不錯，常常爬上爬下也在公司、家裡換燈管燈泡的都沒事，這次會掉下來，
直覺是屬靈上的原因。
第二天聽同事的建議去看醫生，醫生讓我轉診去照X光。還用緊急的Star Case，不用掛號但也等了一個半小時，外國的檢查師很仔細的照了很多X光片，今天去看片子，還好沒有骨折，只是皮肉及筋骨損傷。但胸口還是會痛，呼吸或是笑的時候都會痛，醫生讓我擦活絡油並熱敷，覺得有能講中文可以通的醫生和熟悉的治療方法真的很感謝神，相信休養一下就好了。

Water's Edge
他鄉遇故知 (二)~同學篇
兩人電話相認的五個月後才排出時間見面。
剛好遇到restaurant's week 延期的最後一周，決定去吃一家Susan介紹的餐廳Water Edge。
很酷的是這餐廳在東河的另外一岸 long island city，與上次協理請的Water Club很像都是沿岸景觀餐廳，餐廳提供免費的Ferry from 23 st + ave D
沿著東河由14st走到23st, Stuyvesant Town 的景觀又是另一種紐約，比較像是住在英國宿舍的感覺，四層樓的公寓被群樹包圍著，小朋友們在playground 玩著，白人黃人混血小孩等玩在一起，這就是紐約!
坐上免費的接駁渡輪還有免費的香檳送上，今天的天氣真的舒適，航行在東河上真的是人生很大的享受。美國每年的國慶都在East river放煙火，但今年特別在Hudson river。沿著東河走的感覺有點像淡水河畔，但更多的是慢跑和釣魚的人們。
十分鐘後抵達餐廳，坐在戶外享受著曼哈頓的晚霞，Queensborough bridge的壯麗及夜晚的燈光秀，搭配好吃的Tuna Tenpura ~真的很美很有情調。
餐廳二樓是水晶燈宴會廳，透明的窗戶可看到戶外的美景和曼哈頓夜景，感謝神賜下這樣美好的天氣和豐富的一餐!

The Water Club
今天距離回台灣的日子正好是兩個月!
真的很感謝神，這一年在紐約得到神很多的祝福，遇到很好的老闆，很照顧我的同事及很多很棒的機會。
8.26 七夕情人節神透過my conversation partner Susan 送我情人節禮物，是我所喜歡的筆記本和相簿，淡紫色的包包搭配著我在蘇活區買的長裙，真搭!
今天是迎新送舊許兩位副理。協理請我們在The Water Club吃龍蝦大餐。這是一個船屋，靠近East river 30 street, 可見Queensboro bridge。

兩磅重的龍蝦，即使只有一隻鰲，超好吃也很飽足! (前菜的crab cake 也是料好實在)
(在波士頓吃時也是獨臂蝦)，倪襄安慰我說，因為獨臂所以特別強壯你也沒有吃虧。
協理說: 一定要吃餐廳的名菜，這餐廳最有名的是龍蝦。這地方晚上真的很有情調，最適合情人一起。如果來紐約度蜜月，來這邊吃飯可以拿帳單來向倪襄理報帳!
協理是個浪漫的人，今天慶生會他鼓勵大家選花，因為巧克力自己可以買，但自己不太會買花給自己，買給老婆又會被罵亂花錢，所以說是協理送的花就沒錯了。
紐約真的是機會多，餐廳多，人情多!要感謝的太多了，只有謝天吧!

洗手做羹湯
雖說住在Flushing不乏好吃的中國料理和各式便當，加上回到家都七八點了，所以通常晚餐都在外面解決。
但今天在香港超市看到白切肉還是忍不住買回去煮，因為想念家鄉的白切肉。
買回家憑印象煮了一下，不如所想的好吃，打電話回家求救。媽媽電話傳授白切肉要點:
先用大火把水煮開後放入皮及肉，蓋上鍋蓋用小火悶熟。
煮熟後加點鹽放進冰水中三溫暖一下再切成薄片，肉質冰Q可口。
如果用電鍋可以和米一起煮，米的酵素會幫忙煮熟。
白切肉不能放冷凍庫，因為解凍退冰後會損害肉質，最好是當天吃完。
煮肉湯頭好喝可以加蛋花，皮有膠質或煮完後再去皮，以減少油脂。
二
如果肉放冷凍就改煮紅燒肉:
退冰後加糖，醬油上色，米酒加味，浸入十分鐘左右讓肉入味。
並放入鍋中加少少的水及醬油上色攪拌，
蘇東坡的名言:少水、小火。
之後水蓋過肉，蓋上蓋子悶燒，最好用大一點的鍋子以免溢出來。
三
白切肉最好吃的是松阪豬肉又叫霜降肉，油脂分布的很均勻。
豬的霜降肉是在豬的下腮的部分，一頭豬只有兩片，沒有皮。
英文應為: Jowl Meat(指接近下顎及頸邊這個部位)
優點是耐煮, 脆脆的有嚼勁, 蒸炒煮炸都適合,
沾醬: 蒜末＋醬油＋少許烏醋＋沙茶醬
希望下次能成功!

No. 311- 紐約市民電話
儘管8.4.體會到:公司前面已經施工八個月了,不僅要繞路麻煩且每天都覺得很危險，體會初學習信仰也是，但完工後的價值不斐，畢竟是在曼哈頓的金融區中~~Location is important!
但今天又因為公司隔壁施工工人生氣不已，不但阻擋我走到公司的路線還態度惡劣，
從去年十一月開始每天都要繞路進入公司並且有時候還找不到門。
I: I was late because of this!
The labor: I did not do it everyday, You better got a better excuse.
氣呼呼的問同事:為何房東的住宅區房子因為鄰居抗議施工拖了三年，而在商業區的我們，一整棟的人上班都受到影響，卻沒有任何的改善?
同事 : 你有去反應嗎? 且要找到對的人去反應!
我:不知道這是不是常態，因為他有施工執照所以他這麼做是合法的!
後來學到紐約人如果有任何非緊急事件，都可以打 311 去詢問，他會幫你轉到相關部門，有點像Information center.
且工地都應該貼出佈告，如果你有受到任何的不便或干擾可以去電311反應。
本來怕是自己不懂事，所以忍耐又忍耐，後來才知道原來你不去反應不說出來，沒有人去理你。而且和工人說也沒有用!
Verizon的電話常被挖斷影響銀行營運也是異曲同工之妙!

在美國的台灣人看八八水災
和同事聊天時，聊到台灣最近頻上國際新聞的八八水災，
也提到一些台灣的問題，如祖國認同問題，全民政治和只會愈誇張鬧事的媒體。
一些小結論:
一、
美國人教育很厲害，小孩: I am American born Chinese.吃美國奶水長大的，沒有祖國認同問題。
二、
台灣人的悲哀，Morakot颱風造成一百多人死亡，政治人物仍在口水戰，看不到台灣的希望!
真的希望台灣更好畢竟這是我們的祖國，且將來是要在台灣養老的。
台灣的天然資源旅遊環境不輸於夏威夷，為何沒有辦法好好的建設並發展台灣的特色呢?總是為了大陸問題而弄得雞飛狗跳。
美國人面對生命存危之問題會忍耐，如921使美國人團結起來，紐約大停電人民卻井然有序，飛機臨時不起飛並把全飛機的人趕下飛機，當場沒有人抗議但事後的飛安評價會很慘!
美國人會用別的方式來抗議或修理你所造成的不便，畢竟是先進民主國家，人民有民主素養，不是吵鬧要錢賠償了事。
三、
不是上帝審判台灣人，是要給台灣人一個教訓，發現問題解決問題，為了更好的未來!
的確患難天災不是神不是審判人，乃是為了救援人們脫離死亡。
就像癌細胞病變，身體出現警訊，如果因此而改變生活習慣變得更注重健康，那生這場病就沒有白生了，可以保護你免於不自覺中陷入死亡的危機。
回高雄時發現汙染嚴重只是為了民生，發展經濟，水土破壞的問題遲早會發生。
我們要多看多學習美國這個國家好的一面，並帶回台灣，(壞的就留在美國了)。
實習的意義，不要怕事，寧可生活中更多碰撞，可以更多看見學習和體驗!
她的觀念和我很像，最近也是把自己當美國人這樣來看這個國家，不再以過客遊客自居!

Mostly Mozart Festival
2009.8.4 Mostly Mozart Festival
One of my favorite place in new york is Lincoln center. Lincoln center for the performing arts has 12 organizations and presents over 5,000 performances by artists from around the world.
I went to Avery Fisher Hall for the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, they gave me a "stage seat", because it is the cheapest seat so I went to the top floor, then the asher told me, your seat is in orchestra, then I went back to first floor, my seat is "on the stage", which is faced the audience and the conductor as part of the orchestra members.
What a different view to the music performance !
I like the french-Canadian Yannick's performance, this is his new york debut. the music are
Stravinsky: Pulcinella (complete ballet music)
Mozart: Piano Concerto No.20 in D minor K.466
Mendelssohn: Symphony No.4 in A major (Italian Symphony)
the music is so colorful and with various feeling on it, happy, sad, angry, merry....
the man next to me told me though it started at 8:00pm, they provide pre-concert recitals at 7:00pm, which is also good and like a special gift to the audience.
The whole night, I was soaked into the beautiful melody of the maestros' piece of works.
What a wonderful and abundant art city, New york!

The Last Hours
From 3.25 wed msg 我們看聖經就可以發現，神在審判所多瑪地之前，就對亞伯拉罕說：「亞伯拉罕啊！我所要做的事不能對你隱瞞。」此外， 神事前也告訴羅得而讓他呼喊了。主說：「只要知道將會有某件驚人的事發生，而會有許多人死亡，這樣就夠了。因為人們不會因為知道具體狀況就相信而避開，也不會因此就對準備有所幫助。」 對遭受這些災殃的國家或地區的人，都有像挪亞時代及羅得時代一樣事先給他們警告，並且給了充分的時間讓他們可以避開，但是他們就算得到了最後警告，卻還是很安心地想：「會發生這種事嗎？不會吧？」然後就不相信，都沒有恐懼戰兢，沒有帶著緊張的心來做。在他們遭受這樣的災殃之後，我們看新聞也可以知道，其實事前都有徵兆以及不同於以往的異常現象，讓他們可以避開，不過他們卻想「不會吧……」而沒有避開。就像主平常所說的：「早知如此，不管是誰都不會這麼做的。」主說：「因此最後就變得像挪亞時代和羅得時代一樣。我的再臨近在眼前，已經向全世界發出最後的警告了，但人們就算透過網路或書籍已經讀到並知道我所傳講的話語，卻還是沒有將這擺在優先的位置，還是照常過著自己平常所過的信仰生活。而外邦人只是當成玩笑話來聽，或是當成和自己八竿子打不著的話來聽，然後說：『不會吧……』

2009.8.2. Jesus and the angels
詩篇18:25-26 慈愛的人，你以慈愛待他；完全的人，你以完全待他。
清潔的人，你以清潔待他；乖僻的人，你以彎曲待他。
啟示錄22:6-16 天使又對我說：「這些話是真實可信的。主就是眾先知被感之靈的神，差遣他的使者，將那必要快成的事指示他僕人。」看哪，我必快來！凡遵守這書上預言的有福了！」
這些事是我約翰所聽見、所看見的；我既聽見、看見了，就在指示我的天使腳前俯伏要拜他。
他對我說：「千萬不可！我與你和你的弟兄眾先知，並那些守這書上言語的人，同是作僕人的。你要敬拜神。」他又對我說：「不可封了這書上的預言，因為日期近了。」
不義的，叫他仍舊不義；污穢的，叫他仍舊污穢；為義的，叫他仍舊為義；聖潔的，叫他仍舊聖潔。
「看哪，我必快來！賞罰在我，要照各人所行的報應他。我是阿拉法，我是俄梅戛；我是首先的，我是末後的；我是初，我是終。」
那些洗淨自己衣服的有福了！可得權柄能到生命樹那裏，也能從門進城。城外有那些犬類、行邪術的、淫亂的、殺人的、拜偶像的，並一切喜好說謊言、編造虛謊的。
「我耶穌差遣我的使者為眾教會將這些事向你們證明。我是大衛的根，又是他的後裔。我是明亮的晨星。」
聖靈和新婦都說：「來！」聽見的人也該說：「來！」口渴的人也當來；願意的，都可以白白取生命的水喝。

The Face in the sky
2009.7.27
靈感的詩: 天空
天空，是神與人對話的看板
你看，是神的笑臉
從東方的紐約到西盡的夏威夷
祂用著愛守護著這最愛的長子，美國
但，
子女何時才會發現父母這樣的愛呢?
人們何時才會抬頭看見這樣的天空呢?
American people, wake up!
Pray , pray more, and pray deeper,
Love, love more, and love deeper.
Show me and I will show you
My second coming is
Near, Nearer, Nearest.
啟示錄1:14-16 他的頭與髮皆白，如白羊毛，如雪；眼目如同火焰；腳好像在爐中鍛鍊光明的銅；聲音如同眾水的聲音。他右手拿著七星，從他口中出來一把兩刃的利劍；面貌如同烈日放光。
使徒行傳1:6-8 他們聚集的時候，問耶穌說：「主啊，你復興以色列國就在這時候麼？」耶穌對他們說：「父憑著自己的權柄所定時候、日期，不是你們可以知道的。但聖靈降臨在你們身上，你們就必得著能力，並要在耶路撒冷、猶太全地，和撒瑪利亞，直到地極，作我的見證。」
使徒行傳2:17-21 神說：在末後的日子，我要將我的靈澆灌凡有氣的。你們的兒女要說預言；你們的少年人要見異象；老年人要做異夢。在那些日子，我要將我的靈澆灌我的僕人和使女，他們就要說預言。在天上、我要顯出奇事；在地下、我要顯出神蹟；有血，有火，有煙霧。日頭要變為黑暗，月亮要變為血；這都在主大而明顯的日子未到以前。到那時候，凡求告主名的，就必得救。

God Bless Hawaii-above all
2009.7.4 news
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1193941/North-Korea-plan-missile-launch-Hawaii-Independence-Day.html
North Korea may launch a long-range ballistic missile towards Hawaii on American Independence Day, according to Japanese intelligence officials.
The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles, would be launched in early July from the Dongchang-ni site on the north-western coast of the secretive country.
Sunday message on July 19:
" I heard that they finished the Holy Spirit Assemblies in New York and Houston and received a report saying they will have a Holy Spirit Assembly in Hawaii on July 3~4. North Korea was angry about the U.S. limiting their quest for nuclear weapons and threatened to fire their missiles at Hawaii on July 4th. They sent me an urgent report asking if they should have the Assembly in Hawaii even though Hawaii is afraid and nervous about this.
As you saw on the news, tourists stayed away from Hawaii and the citizens of Hawaii were trembling in fear over this. America dispatched their military to the area. The Assembly team and the Hawaii head leaders wrote me asking if they should avoid that date because North Korea threatens to fire their missiles.
Upon receiving this letter I asked the Lord about this. The Lord said, “If they fire their missile, I will kick them away like a soccer ball with my eagle claws. So have the Holy Spirit Assembly on the scheduled days of July 3~4.” Hallelujah~ Amen!"
The peace message from Lord announced in Hawaii Providence on July 3-4, Lord showed Monica the pigeon/dove (representative of peace) on her balcony of hotel and many angels and armies are moving to Hawaii from Heaven, the event went on as usual.
It reminds me a beautiful song: above all
超乎一切 Above all （中文版）
powers above all kings 超乎眾權能 超乎眾王
Above all nature and all created things超乎眾受造 和 宇宙眾萬物
Above all wisdom and all the ways of man超乎眾智慧 和 眾人的道路
You were here before the world began是你創造天地和萬物
Above all kindgoms above all thrones超乎眾國度 超乎權位
Above all wonders the world has ever known超乎這世界所知和所想像
Above all wealth and treasure of the earth超乎這世上的財富和珍寶
There's no way to measure what You're worth無一事物能與你相比
Crucified laid behind a stone釘十架 埋葬在石洞
You lived to die rejected and alone你捨生命 被拒絕和孤單
Like a rose trampled on the ground像玫瑰 遭踐踏在地
You took the fall and thought of me勝過死亡 你顧念我 Above all超乎一切

North Korea may launch a long-range ballistic missile towards Hawaii on American Independence Day, according to Japanese intelligence officials.
The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles, would be launched in early July from the Dongchang-ni site on the north-western coast of the secretive country.

Mammatus Clouds over Manhattan we driving after the rains heading to pier 40 on the west village to party @ queen mary when suddenly we stop and started to shoot this rare cloud formation i never seen.

Mammatus, also known as mammatocumulus, meaning "Mammary cloud" or "Breast cloud" is a meteorological term applied to a cellular pattern of pouches hanging underneath the base of a cloud. The name "mammatus" is derived from the Latin mamma (udder or breast), due to the clouds' characteristic shape, as some believe there is a resemblance between the shape of these clouds and the breast of a woman.
Independence Day (also known by its promotional abbreviation ID4) is a 1996 science fiction film about a hostile alien invasion of Earth, focusing on a disparate group of individuals and families as they coincidentally converge in the Nevada desert and, along with the rest of the human population, participate in a last-chance retaliation effort on July 4 – the same date as the Independence Day holiday in the United States. It was directed by Roland Emmerich, who co-wrote the script with producer Dean Devlin.
