Happy Chinese New Years! I must say, last year we were under lockdown and this year we have been under an even more strict lockdown for the past month. We are a year closer to the return of our Precious Lord Jesus, and seeing even more so the desperate need for people to care about the lost souls around them.
Pray for us here in China.
A great way to start your day!

@sinbach you must be able to sleep on command! You are constantly in different time zones! I watch in wonder how the Lord will unfold His plan with this craziness.

I think language changes you. To truly speak another language you often have give yourself over to another culture - to think differently. Sitting at a table last night, breaking bread and surrounded by amazing Chinese friends made me realize how much I have missed fellowshipping in the Chinese language.
I text and speak Chinese every day, but to be in fellowship together, eating, bonding - that is truly something else entirely.

On the plane yesterday I watched Downhill with Will Ferrell and Julia Louis-Dreyfus - which is a complete remake of a Swedish movie - which in my opinion - the Americans did better than the original. However, IF Hollywood is going remake a Swedish movie - it SHOULD be "438 Days." A powerful true story about the need for freedom of journalism. Even if you have to watch with English subtitles - this is a movie that is needed for 2021.
Available on YouTube with subtitles.

@sinbach I've never done that BUT I heard Joyce Meyer teach about character referencing shopping cars many, many years ago and since then EVERY time I go shopping and put my cart away, I think of her - and I think about how easy it is to show love.
Yes, most of Washington is the “enemy within”.
