Let's pray

星期二考試, 本來應該是很害怕的, 但心內卻有出人意外的平安與喜樂

兩個月來的學習就在這個星期了結...學了很多, 幾乎比我前兩年學的還要多...終於有些concept 知道自己在讀甚麼...varieties of capitalism, transition to democracy, structuralism and agency argument, democracy and development 社會福利的制度如何建立?經濟發展與民主發展有沒有關聯?如何消減社會的貧富懸殊?可不可以有三種資本主義, 比美國, 比現在的香港走不同的路, 國家的制度, 究竟是制度定成, 還是由人的決定改變? 歷史, 是命定, 還是由人民自己掌握??

讀政治的時候, 會將國家比喻為人

國際關係, 就是人際關係
國家制度的建立, 也就是一個人的價值系統建立
要真正了解一個國家的制度與運作方式, 正如解構一個人的價值觀與做事方式
一個國家有個別的文化, 系統, 一個人也有不同的性格表現

我的路, 又會是怎樣?

今天Livets Ord說的是Prayer
-prayer of a righteous people should be powerful and effective

-how prayers of Christians differ from others (other religions also have prayers): they are prayers that get answered!!

-prayer: "I cannot do it myself, God, help me!"

-prayer is "deny myself, and seek help from God"

- We need to seek, we'll find, but the point is WE NEVER GIVE UP

-we pray not because it's the least thing we can do; but the biggest thing we can do---we let God to do, and we have GUARANTEE through prayers

- prayers need not to be long to be good and sincere, short prayers will do too, we can pray whenever we want

- pray it loud ( at that time Jesus probably do it too; it should be loud enough so that the disciples can take notes from them:p)

- thru prayer we can change our destiny, through prayer we can change the destiny of a nation too

Let's pray.

這兩天神讓我數次看見這段經文:
這稱為我名下的子民，若是自卑、禱告，尋求我的面，轉離他們的惡行，我必從天上垂聽，赦免他們的罪，醫治他們的地。(代下7:14)

今天媽咪提醒我: 我今天所得的所有一切都不是自己刻意爭取的, 都是神所賜的, 我何用擔心?
感謝神
感謝祂所賜給我的一切
