In the garden of number 9

We spend a day in number 9's house last Saturday.
Their family lived in Saratoga. It is a Spanish style house. Inside the house, there is a garden full of different fruits and vegetables. It is fruitful.

Tommy doing up in the tree.......


Tommy saw a pretty ripe Asian pear,
he finally got it.





"....God made all kinds of tree grow out of the ground-trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. The Lord God took the man and put him ..... to work it and take care of it." Genesis 2:8-9, 15

This garden of #9 reminds me of God's original plan for human is to take care of his beautiful creation. #9 really takes good care of this garden of his.

It is a blessing to have a family gathering and enjoy each other's present.

A Blessed Day together

This is our 1st Family Picnic, in the Frontier Park of Pacifica.
We can see God is providing us with a wonderful place, with bright, sunny and warm weather.






Everyone seems to have fun with each other, the kids or doggies enjoy it !!!





Image of our Heavenly Father

In my younger years, I did not have a very positive image of my father. I viewed him as passive, not decisive, not musculine, always as followers. The father figure he protrayed did not match the one I am hoping for.

"But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and prayer to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. " Matthew 6:6

Praise the Lord, once again He reminds me of a positive father image.......
- our Heavenly Father is a personal God,
- He is a soft and caring God,
- He provides protection & supplies for our needs,
- He teaches us responsibility and give us courage to live everyday of our life.

Jesus told me that our Heavenly Father is our father. No matter
how our earthly father protrayed, we have our Father in Heaven that we can rely, depend and talked to. He definately will listen to us if we can pray to Him quietly in our room, He will reward us accordingly.

感謝耶穌告訴我要如何與父神相遇, 不是父神需要隱秘, 是我需要安靜, 才能清心見你.

進我的內屋, 關上門; 父啊, 我在這裡, 請向我說話.......
