Could my low voice in the beginning of every wake be caused by loud snores. Then are my snores that frequent? Do most if not all basses snore?
Sang the song "How great the love" by Mary Kay Beall with choir yesterday. Even the first time I sang it during the first rehearsal, it reminded me of a piece (slow movement part of Javert's suicide soliloquy) by Claude-Michel Schönberg in Les Miserables.
Given their years of compositions, 1980 & 1989 respectively, I wonder how Mary Kay got her "inspiration".
Can't believe my first helicopter ride was in my dream. Appears to be some military run operation. I don't remember what's the purpose but I do recall two representations on there - grand and younger. Sobriety on the grand, only mission on the younger-thus absent minded (Perhaps such is the way of certain reality). The sober noticed the custom issue. I therefore ended up in some very evangelical church service (I think it's singspiration time - even David Huang was around) some how. Two were on my hair, commenting my old habit as they observed and tried fixing. "There are thousands of ways how strange people do with their hair" was how one commented. I was playful, even made a finger ring out of my own hair. Tried hiding it, woke up at around 6:00 am today.
For someone like Rick Warren, getting 260% in return from a $900,000 budget is not a big deal. I would like to see him do this for USA's deficit.
The tactics are similar among today's prominent preachers, even 遠志明, etc. In matters of truth, as long as it is in agreement with the majority opinion, the opposition from a few is no loss at all. This is how they gain devotions and how they secure their own safety.
Jesus however did just the reverse: The all have to agree with the truth.
Broccoli and a couple of carambolas don't seem to taste differently. Perhaps I should try it with more of the fruit.

I've come across so many news and articles about how many so called "patriots" who criminalize all immigrants in any way they can.
I would imagine they are in some sort of debt or lost their jobs because of something pertaining to immigrants.
The common key: jealousy.
In the sense of doing charity and missionary ministry, one often expect the people they help to be less fortunate, even of lower stature than one self. Even Christians fall into this trap easily. Thus, when the people one is trying to help suddenly appear to be in a better position than oneself, the reaction is incredible.
Perhaps, I could contrast an immigrant's suffering in this land to the Israelites settlement in a "promised" land of God. The tribes were jealous of Israelites for taking their lands but were in fact due to their own sins against God. The Americans got jealous of immigrants due to their laziness.
As for whether Godliness is brought to this land, perhaps it is time to call upon the name of God.

The past Sunday teaching the youth on Cults, Christian Cults to be more specific, I am troubled by my own teaching and approach.
I also noticed the complexity of dealing with different level of students with different Sunday School (plainly put, Biblical) knowledge. I am uncertain if I should be shocked as to the little knowledge of Biblical facts in them or am I being too hard on them. Were we that "shallow" at their age? after attending Sunday school for quite a while.
My emphasis on expository teaching rather than topical teaching is only started when I truly saw the importance of the Bible. Sure, I also loved topical studies before, I loved Study Bibles that have lots of topical references in the Appendixes and other materials pertaining to such. But now, topical study is more of a research rather than a means of teaching.
Nonetheless, since I had also gone through the same and do admit that I learned much from topical teachings too, I would not make it a strict rule, unless this prolongs far too long without the realization of the dominance in expository study over all other forms.
It is hard of course, to have to know if the students already knew the biblical passages I was referring to or certain terms used in Christianity. I do wonder sometimes what they learned in their regular Sunday Schools.
If I had my ways, I would rather go over from Genesis to Revelation (or somewhere close to Revelation) with them while relating to relevant topics as we expound from verse to verse. Instead of having to worry about whether or not they are already familiar with the general passages of the Bible while teaching them how to view today's world in a "Christian" perspective.
This is not a right or wrong problem. Just a matter of which is the better in the pool of majority. Not surprising I have to suffer this, for even the adult fellowships in today's world don't quite get it.
