Dear all,

May grace of Jesus Christ be with you.

各位天路同行者，收信平安！

願主耶穌基督的恩典與您同在。

What has God whispered to you in the Passion Week and on the Easter Day? We all know about the story of Footprints on the Beach, and we all ask Jesus to accompany us when we suffer. We are so much comforted as we are sure that Jesus is in our shoes. But…how about us being in Jesus shoes? In 2017, Jesus invited me to accompany Him in His suffering hour. That was an 8-day-long meditation and writing to Jesus. This Journey not only changed my life, but also changed my prayers. “Emmanuel” is not a static word, but to nail all our pride and shame over on the cross and live for the will of God. That’s why Jesus says, “…go and make disciples of all nations…And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” This is right the secret of Emmanuel!

在受難週與復活節，神對您說了些甚麼？我們都知道「沙灘上的腳印」這個故事，在受苦的時候我們祈求耶穌的陪伴。耶穌完全理解我們的處境，這帶給我們莫大的安慰。那麼，我們也來理解耶穌的處境如何？在2017年，耶穌邀請我在祂的受苦時刻陪伴祂。那是一個整整八天單單默想與寫信給耶穌的旅程。這個經歷不但改變了我的生命，也改變了我的禱告。「以馬內利---神與我們同在」不是一個靜態的字眼，而是將我們所有的驕傲與羞辱全都釘死在十字架上，專為神的旨意而活。耶穌說：「…使萬民作我的門徒……我就與你們同在，直到世界的末了。」這就是以馬內利的秘訣。

Thank you for your support in prayers. I am trying my best to comfort my mother and find the right way to make her practice her ability left.

感謝您在禱告中大力支持，我還在盡力安撫媽媽，並且正在想辦法用正確方式讓媽媽仍然具備的能力得以發揮。

And I also find out the way to stop coughing is to put thermo pad on my back all the time. But somehow the power cable limits my activity range. In May and June, I am supposed to attend intensive sewing classes. But I am still feeling very weak. Let’s pray and see what God would like me to do about it.

我也找到止咳的方法，就是要一直把熱敷墊穿在背上，只是這麼一來熱敷墊的電源線限制了我的活動範圍。五月和六月，我有密集的裁縫課程要參加，但目前身體還是感到虛弱，唯祈禱上帝，願祂旨意成全。

Jesus walks along with us, so that we shall not walk alone. Please also participate in our ministry through your prayers.

耶穌與我們同行，使我們不致獨行。敬請也以您的禱告參與我們的事工。
