Goodbye Wishes to a WS group

“[Whilst] everything around me is ever changing, ever dying, there is underlying all that change a living power that is changeless, that holds all together, that creates, dissolves and recreates.  That informing power or spirit is God....And is this power benevolent or malevolent?  I see it as purely benevolent.  For I can see that in the midst of death life persists, in the midst of untruth truth persists, in the midst of darkness light persists.  Hence I gather that God is Life, Truth, Light.  He is Love.  He is the supreme Good.”  (Mahatma Gandi)

Even though Gandi is not a Christian, his wisdom about life and God is amazing possibly due to his background and upbringing. Yes, the belief in the Almighty God and His Benevolence is a sanctuary and hope for going through the various challenges in our lives especially during such tumultuous time as we are going through in HK.

箴言(Proverbs) 4：23「你要保守你的心，勝過保守一切，因為一生的果效是由心發出。」

James 4:17, ESV: "So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin."

Your Life Matters!

Sometimes it seems like our lives don’t matter. Whether you are in the depths of depression or have survived an assault on who you are, etc. Sometimes it seems like, “My life doesn’t matter.” However: That thought is wrong. Your life does matter. The spiritual truth is; If you are alive, your life matters.

Here are some of the reasons why:

1. You are born with your soul which will not die.

2. You are beloved and precious in the eyes of God, our Creator.

3. You have a unique role to play in the grand scheme of God's creation.

4. You have a contribution to make to the world, even if you’re not aware of it.

5. The fact that "You were born" is NOT accidental.

6. There are things that could only be achieved through your earthly life.

7. Your soul (inner self) is the real you which has an infinite potential.

Please remember that you are endowed with a free will and a rationality that are distinctly human. Do exercise and make good of your free will with your rationality. No matter what happens, bear in mind that you are a miraculous 'gift' in God's plan. Indeed, you are a partner of God in His creation plan! So, you should try your best to understand God's truth and love so that your life will be a blessing for everybody.

May the Lord Jesus enlighten, guide and keep you. Amen.
