HEART@EASE

Clay Jar   2022-02 Life-threatening bullets were flying around her while the heart pounding sounds of bombing deafened  her as she raced and dodged relentlessly to the small deserted church… to pray. Praying used to be a blissful time when fellow Christ followers on this primitive island offered their pure hearts to their Holy GOD. But the brutality of foreign invaders in the 1940’s had made this usual practice impossible. The war had lasted for more than eight years. The majority of China was in shambles, not even the small islands could escape the horrors of war. Amazingly this woman was singing praises with bubbling JOY, some 40 years

【Light of Grace Album】-A Lone Bird

Photographer:Eric Lau     Location: Niagara Falls,ON The worst form of loneliness is being disoriented, having no companion on the same path, and being alone for a long time. Pause for a moment quietly: get to know yourself, think about and seek the truth, and open the Bible to read! The Spirit of Truth will tell you where you came from and where you are going. Believe in and accept the gospel, and soon you will know a group of believers and fellow travelers, who will go through difficulties with you and enjoy the peace that the Lord will bestow. Get out of loneliness! “The Lord confides in those who fear him;

Perspective of Living and Working – by Xiao Bing 2022-03, 228 Dear readers, we are glad to start introducing a more systematic aspect of the mainland Chinese immigrants of Canada, this is a relatively broad approach due to limitation of coverage. Our main focus will be on the practical interactions with them in the prospect of building better connection and caring.

Walk in Japan, Relocating in Exchange for Good Stuffs

– Chion 2022-03 No. 228 In Japan, new year starts in April, and it becomes a busy season of moving at or around cherry blossom, for students and families moving due to job changes. After the pandemic, and first time since the establishment of Tokyo, the general population shows a negative growth – moving in is less than moving out. Drastic changes have been observed in the pattern of living within these two years. Moving is no longer caused solely by changes in external factors, rather a new realization from deep within. This resembles the saying “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole

【Letters From Jun】

Eric 2022-03 Dear Brother Jun, May peace be with you. I am so sorry to reply your message so late because I was quite busy recently.  You mentioned that you would like to know how I started to contact the church; what made me keep on attending the church for two and a half year and knowing God consequently. I would like to share with you a brief story first and in details later. I was born in a family where my parents were both teachers.  However, the society was filled with instability and insecurity that life was very tough in the early 1960s. I caught up with

Creation & Life

Alice Cheng When the Bible talks about creation, it doesn’t focus on “how” but “why” the world was created- the relationship between the Creator and the creation. God the Creator is the Lord over this material world. He has purposely placed man into this wonderful and orderly world of affection to live a life in tune with His Will. Obey the Order of “Heavenly Mandate” God has created this material world of order in time and space: Day and night for work and rest (Genesis 1:5) 6 days in a week for work and 1 day of rest (Genesis 2:2-3) Each planet running on track Establishing time and

“Land Conservation”

Raymond Cheng CreationCare120  Founding Member Creation120.info   I remember the trip to Columbia Icefield in the Canadian Rockies in Alberta my friends and I had in 2014, I compared the sight before me with what was there 20 years back at the same scenic overlook, in the same season. I realized that the coach had to drive for a longer distance to reach the glacier where ice was not melted. I believe it is a crisis that people generally notice about global warming. Scientists have cautioned many years ago that with an average of 2 ºC rise of the global temperature, there will be lots of severe climate
