It's mid-autumn already!

Aunt Lichi has already brought us mooncakes from Taiwan, they were delicious! Tonite, we'll have a gathering at my parents house too..., it'd be a good break for wife so that she doesn't have to cook for me again tonite! ;)

Today's scripture reading was about Nehemiah. He cried when he learned the walls and gates of Jerusalem were burnt down... so he prayed to God and planned meticulously to make things right. In a way this reminded me of my previous church. Basically the enemy came and then scattered us and burned it down. Unfortunately, unlike Nehemiah, I have no clue on how to even help LAKKC and make things right. And it's not just LAKKC of course. Surely there are plenty of other churches around the world that might be in trouble. May God raise up more people like Nehemiah to help out the various churches in trouble and in disgrace. May God also equip all of us to become more like Nehemiah in the future so that we can be of help in matters that are related to the kingdom of God. Lord have mercy on us. May Your way be done... thru us.

(Nehemiah 1-2)
