Professer Dr Bracken was known for his elaborate object lessons, so the students weren't taken bu surprised when they entered the classroom and saw a huge target on the front wall. Trisha knew something was up, however, when she noticed several darts placed carefully on a nearby table. She took her seat and listened to instructions given out. 'Take out a sheet of paper and draw a sketch of someone you dislike; someone wjo has hurst you; someone who has angered you. When you're finished, I'll post each picture  on the target and allow you to throw darts at the person's picture.' Tony drew a pictire of his dad, who had struggeled with alcohol and left the family when Toby was young. Emily drew a pictire of a girl who had stolen her biyfriend. Darren drew a picture of his brother. Trisha drew a pictire of her ex-friend who had her deeply. She tried to make him as ugly as she could. The students posted their pictures on the huge target and one by one they started throwing darts. Some threw with such force that their targets  began ripping apart. Trisha could not wait for her turn and her anger grew each minute. 'Okay class, return to your seats. This exercise took longer than I expected,' said Dr Bracken. Trisha sat in anger beacuse she did not get to throw a dart. As she quietly fumed, Dr Braken began removing the target from the wall. Trisha gasped. Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. Silence fell over the room as each stident viewed the mangled picture of Jesus. Holes and jagged marks covered his face and His eyes were pierced.

What's important to God?

The Bible tells us that someday every knee and tongue will bow and every tongue would confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Every single one of us will stand before God on Judgement Day. Have you ever what it will be like? What will God be concerned with?

*God won't ask you what car you drove but He might ask you how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.
*God won't ask you how big your house is but He might ask you how many people you welcomed into your home.
*God won't ask about your social status but He might ask you what kind of class you displayed.
*God won't ask you how many material possesions you had but He might ask if they dictated your life.
*God won't ask you what neighbourhood you lived in but He might ask you  how you treated your neighbours.

God is concerned with the status in your heart and you actions. Truth is, our actions often reflect our heart. Are you actions representative of Christ? It all starts with your heart Is you heart totally dedicated to Him?Are you more concerned about becoming  all He wants you to be than seeing how much you get? Ask God to transform your thinking. When you heart has that kind of focus, your actions will reflect Christ Himself.

求主充滿我

求主充滿我

主，我來尋求你的面，求你充滿我，來充滿我，
主，我渴慕你的同在，求你潔淨我，來充滿我。

耶穌，耶穌，耶穌，耶穌，你的寶血洗淨我，
耶穌，耶穌，耶穌，耶穌，你以恩典我我冠冕。

Personal Thoughts: I especially like the part when it says 'I am searching for you, Lord. Please fill me/guide me' and 'Jesus' blood cleanses me and my sins'. Sometimes when I think about sinning, I would think of Jesus dying on the cross for me. And when we want to draw closer to God, we need to pray, ask Him to let us understand His word better. We need to ask him to 充滿我!

个人的想法：我特别喜欢的部分时，说'我为你，主搜索。请填写本人/引导我'和'耶稣的宝血洗净我和我的罪'。有时候，我想犯罪，我认为对我死在十字架上的耶稣。而当我们要画更接近主，我们需要祈祷，求他让我们明白他的话更好。我们要问他 充滿我!

Hebrews 4:12-13' For the word of God is alive and active.

Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.'

We are being watched every single minute of our lives by God. Every selfish thing, anything that we do against His commadment can all be seen. Therefore, let us be watchful is everything we do.

有些事我只想要對你說，因你比任何人都愛我；
痛苦從眼中流下，我知道你為我擦。
在早晨我也要來對你說，主耶穌今天我為你活；
所需要的力量你天天賜給我，你恩典夠我用


你向上神祈祷？我们什么可以告诉神，因为他是我们天上的父亲和朋友。祈祷中我们更接近他的每一天。

Personal thoughts: Sometimes, I can be really tired(spiritually and physically) that I won't feel like praying. But when I pray, I feel so much closer to God that I can tell Him anything and I want to tell Him every single thing. God is our heavenly father, our best friend, our shield, or life, our redeemer and so much more. I feel enlightened after each prayer,  feel like drawing closer to Him even more. Prayer is important and essential. Pray because we need God's love. Pray because we need wisdom. Pray because God is important.
个人的想法：有时候，我可真是累（精神上和肉体上），我会感到像祈祷。但是当我祈祷，我觉得这么多接近真神，我可以告诉他任何东西，我想告诉他每一件事情。神是我们的天父，我们最好的朋友，我们的盾牌，或生活，我们的救赎等等等等。我觉得每一个礼拜之后开明。

2 Tim 3:

2 Tim 3:1-5 '  ¹ But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. ² People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, ³ without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, ⁴ treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— ⁵ having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.'

2 Tim 3:14-15 ¹⁴ But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, ¹⁵ and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

Also during this time, continue preaching the gospel(Verse 14) and continue obeying the commandments of God and keeping His word~
