Psalm 23 for TTC Students


The LORD is my Lecturer, 
       I shall never be dull. 
He makes me able to learn
       He leads me to new understanding
       He refreshes my thinking
He guides me in reading and writing
       To follow His leading.

Even though I walk through the valley of
       getting stuck, and heavy academic demands
       arduous assignments, and sheer load of readings
I will never, never quit
       For You are my best Teacher
Your patience and passion, 
       They inspire me. 
You prepare a diploma for me,
       In the presence of my fears and anxiety
You officially signed it with a seal
       My joy and fulfillment overflow
Surely your truth and liberation
       will remain with me each day of my ministry
And I shall teach and preach them
       Till you say “Well done, my good and faithful student!”

When Praying with the Children

 When praying with children, I avoid saying, "We should aim to be like Jesus," in a way that might overwhelm them. To them, Jesus is God, and the idea of being like God - saving the whole world from sin - feels unattainable. Instead, they see Jesus as their special friend, which is a relationship they can embrace and understand. I explained that "being like Jesus" doesn't mean they have to do what only God can do, like saving the world. Instead, it means reflecting His holiness in simple ways. For children, holiness can mean being kind, loving, and obedient. However, I noticed that the idea of holiness sometimes feels like a burden because they wonder if they are already "good enough." To address this, I emphasized that Jesus loves them as they are and helps them grow to be more like Him, step by step. It's not about being perfect or doing everything right all the time. It's about letting Jesus' love fill their hearts and letting that love ...

“We Know God / Truth Only because He Has revealed himself” Dr. Mark Chan

  g.efthymiadis   “We Know God / Truth Only because He Has revealed himself” Dr. Mark Chan (Sept 21, 2024)  Reflection  I just would like to share this statement shared by Dr Mark Chan at the Bible Study on 21 September 2024, Saturday and I quote him: “We Know God / Truth Only because He Has revealed himself”  As I was pondering on this statement, it has caught me once again how our understanding of God originates from His plan and his decision to make himself known to us.   So how does God reveal himself?   God’s revelation or self-manifestation basically comes in two forms and these are the general revelation and the special revelation.   The first one, general revelation refers to the knowledge of God made available to all people through the creation, nature, history, moral order in the society. It’s made available to all humankind and it is accessible to all people at all times but it is limited in providing a complete understanding of God’s...

The Message of the Ascension of the Lord

ACTS 1:1-11 We've probably heard news about the appearance of the Aurora this weekend. So I googled why the aurora appears in the sky. Aurora is the display of dancing lights in the sky at night. When the aurora appears in the northern part, they call it Aurora Borealis, and when it appears in the southern part, they call it Aurora Australis. What causes these dancing lights? It is the sun. The sun doesn’t only emit heat and light but it also sends electrified energy and particles around its solar system, known as solar wind. It is like gaseous energy coming out from the sun.  Since the sun emits solar wind, it also produces outbursts of gaseous wind, known as solar storms. During these storms, the sun sends massive particles and electrified energy into space. However, the earth has a magnetic field that controls the solar wind and storm. This magnetic field traps the small particles and electrified energy, preventing them from penetrating into the earth.  When the so...
