In these days
for a long time, I haven't been here.
What am I talking?
Actually, I have no idea so far.
After the Chinese New Year, my family caught cold in these days.
LeAnn was getting heavy. and then, Eva, too.
I and Leon already is getting better now.
How are you?
While the seasons exchange, people usually catch cold easily.
Please take good care of you and family.
If you want to talk something, I'm all ear.
Surly, I'm serious about listening you saying.
In Christ I pray

God bless you - the letter from a missionary who serve in Africa
Dear Eugene:
Warm greetings from South Africa!
It is wonderful to hear that you are interested in cross-cultural mission, instead of reaching out overseas Chinese. There are many missionaries from Taiwan who are involved in overseas Chinese. We are short of people to serve real cross-culturally. But of course, it is much more challenging, yet exciting!
If you would like to do theological training, you may need to major your ThM in OT or NT or Systematic Theology, something which African theological school teacher will not major because it is more difficult. There are more and more trained African theologians, but most of them are major in Christian Education, Counseling, Mission, etc, anyway easier subjects. So, take a difficult one and study hard, because you will be needed in many theological colleges in Africa.
Anyway, what do they really need, it is discipleship. But they will not ask you to come and teach discipleship, because it is not a real "subject". Yet, when you are a teacher there, then you can build up relationship and do your discipleship with students and Eva and help students' wives. They need life example of how to live out the truth, how to connect the faith and daily life. In West Africa especially, they need to learn to carry their cross and follow Jesus instead of following prosperity gospel. Many pastors here live a life like pagans, without moral standard.
It is good to have English tutor to come to your house. He/ she should give you homework as well. Anyway, he should make you "work hard" in your English, especially listening and speaking. By the way, is he/ she an English speaking person? It is important that English is the first language of your tutor.
As regards to the cost, it is the chance to experience God's provision. God will take care of those who serve Him. :-) It is our faith muscle which needs to be stretched. When we are all self-sufficient, how will we depend on God? God is pleased when we trust him and depend on him.
OK. God bless you.
Debbie

I'm working hard for the Lord.
I worked hard for the Lord usually.
untill now, I gradually realize the Lord's heart that wouldn't make me working hard till burn out but to lean on His spirit leading and to follow His footprints.
Jesus driven ministry, that is my favor book in these days. in that book, I recover the main point services of Jesus. for example, Jesus reached people, praying alone, healed the sick, compassionated the weak, trainned in small group and worked out with the disciples.
Always, I try again and again to think my priority of many services.
that book made me rejoice and keeping me up.
May my services could respond His willing exactly in this new year.

I enjoy the situation which I can't handle.
Actually, I enjoy the situation which I can't handle.
Worship service shall make people rich in spiritual life.
Jesus teach us in spirit and in truth we worship Him, but I'm going to face this situation that make me confused. It seems to challenage me to trust Him more than men skills.
Shall we serve the important worship leading without regular weekly, daily traininng and experience?
God trainned Moses for eighty years, even He already know the Israel's huge pains.
Jesus only works on the earth for three years, but he prepared the crucifixion for all people for thirty years.
The twelve disciples followed Jesus for three years the first, then they worked out their powerful services which God empower all around the Greek-Roman world until now.
God give us wisdom to be his faithful servants. We should lean on Him to equip ourselves before we serve.
In faith we serve

Pre-Mission plan
How can I plan the pre-mission?
Ten years ago, I had opportunity to go to South Africa for shortterm mission.
Since that time experience, God openned my spiritual eyes to see and concern African needs.
Actually, I haven't real experience which living and communication with African yet so far.
I don't know how the burden comes?
God gave me and Eva the Scripture to prove this burden, Isa 49:6, "to be the light of Gentile".
for this burden, I invite you to pray,
pray for my family preparing work,
pray for Africa, although they experienced the revival of spiritual and mass converted, but they lack disciple trainning and theology education for pastor, therefore, even people converted, they also leave their faith soon.

The Spiritual Warfare
From this sunday night on to the coming three weeks, each sunday night and the whole monday, I have a class, names "Spiritual warfare and Powerful service".
For the Kingdom of God is coming, the devil should be destroyed and nothing they can do.
We are the children of God and disciples of Jesus, we will do what Jesus has done which preaching the Gospel of Heaven and also healing the people, driving the evils out.

Give thanks
I just want to give thanks to God, my Lord.
Everyday I wake, walk, think, breath, sit, always feel His keeping.
I realize waht Bible said, the human being is just only dusts.
Even the great man of this earth, when he faces death, is the same with simple man, scared and insecurity. How can we find everlasting?
Jesus said, "I'm the way, truth, life, None comes to the Father except through me."

This Friday
This Friday is a busy day.
I finished the paper that I will teach on this sunday school.
This half year, I teach the survey of Newtestament from Sep. to Dec.
I'm very enjoy teaching service, not only in the teaching process I can learn from the students, but also in preparing I be taught the first. The harvest is plentiful.

My mother in law was sad, because her mother just gone for few days.
I and Eva comforted them, that is better, because grandpa was dying without pain, he was dying in normal living.
God was taking his soul to His paradise.
