April 15_Prayer for a friend

Casting Crowns - Prayer for a friend

Lord I lift my friend to You.
I've done all that I know to do.
I lift my friend, to You.
Complicated circumstances
have clouded his view.
Lord I lift my friend up to You.

I fear that I won't have the words that he needs to hear.
I pray for Your wisdom , oh God.
And a heart that's sincere.
And Lord I lift my friend up to You.

 
Lord I lift my friend to You.
My best friend in the world, I know he means much more to You.
 I want so much to help him, but this is something he has to do.
Lord I lift my friend up to You.

There's a way that seems so right to him.
But You know where that leads.
He's becoming a puppet of the world.
Too blind to see the strings.
And Lord I lift my friend up to You.

Lord I lift my friend to You.
I've done all that I know to do.
I lift my friend, to You.

April 14_你感冒了！

 

Being in 4 seasons country is not an easy thing for a tropic person like me. Especially in cold times, put on many layers is a 麻烦 thing. Well, it's just because I'm not used to it. Am really not. Even in Indonesia, I almost don't have any sweater or long sleeve shirts. Jeans is not my favorite either, I love short pants and T-shirt. 

And now when spring has come.....temperature is rising up... Aaahh, I'm really tempted to use shorts or at least no more layers on. 

I went for jogging the day before yesterday. I only put one layer of clothes and 1 sweater. After 1.5 h jogged, I had chocolate ice cream. But this is what I got for my stubbornness： 我感冒了。He he he...

But it's OK, because of the flu, I had a chance to know "how Chinese people take care themselves when they have cold".

This pears were boiled with lump sugar, it's supposed to cure my sore throat. Though it was overcooked (or u can also say it was burned) but it really helped me. 

And... for bonus, I had this porridge. 好像小时候，身病的时候妈妈给我做粥。味道不错，with some modifications 真的很像印尼的粥。

In good times and bad times, give thanks to the Lord. Learn from your mistakes and keep on running! 

谢谢中国人！
