Bought this at Church of St Francis of Assisi during my secondary school days
I bought this laminated card or book mark at Church of St Francis of Assisi. I did not know that what was written behind the card. Perhaps I did not know the real meaning of it at that time. I only wanted Jesus to protect me and help me in my studies at that time. It was only after Jesus said "Follow me" was my mind and heart 'opened', I saw the words 'Learning Christ' and it means so much to me then.
At the back of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
What it wrote:
"Learning Christ"
Teach me, my Lord, to be sweet and gently
in all the events of life -- in disappointments, in the thoughtlessness of others, in the insincerity of those I trusted, in the unfaithfulness of those on whom I relied.
Let me put myself aside, to think of the happiness of others, to hide my little pains and heartaches, so that I may be the only one to suffer from them.
Teach me to profit by the suffering that comes across my path.
Let me so use it that it may mellow me not harden nor embitter me, that it may make me patient, not irritable, that it may make me broad in my forgiveness, not narrow, haughty and overbearing.
May no one be less good for having come within my influence. No one less pure, less true, less kind, less noble for having been a fellow-traveler in our journey toward Eternal Life.
As I go my rounds from one distraction to another, let me whisper from time to time, a word of love to Thee. May my life be lived in the Super-natural, full of power for good, and strong in its purpose of sanctity.
I hope from today onwards I can be like Christ, learn His Ways to be a better person.
Parasaurolophus dinosaur at Fu Shan Garden
Just now I went to Fu Shan Garden to take a picture of the dinosaur, Parasaurolophus, a dinosaur that I seen in the sky in the year 2008. Below is a sign at the location of the dinosaur to show you a little information about the dinosaur:
A signboard to show the name and information about Parasaurolophus
Like the parasaurolophus, I am a "herbivore", love vegetables, but I also eat seafood. The Parasaurolophus that God had shown was a cute ones, with long arms and wore a special rounded hat (beret). Besides protection for the head, the hat also shows the profession of a person. It is a symbol of class and occupation. However, I do not understand what it means to be wearing this kind of hat means. The parasaurolophus that God shown also had a long arms. A long arm also signify power as in the long arm of the law...
God raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under His feet and appointed Him to be head over everything for the church (Ephesians 1:20-22)
