Early Birthday for my grandson

Tomorrow will be my grandson's birthday and he will be seven year old. Today I took him to the library as usually we do that every Tuesday. After the library we went to McDonald. My grandson did most of the talking. His famous quote is: "Nunna, did you that ....". He mention about one of the toy that did alots of flip, when he cleaned his room that he found a cool unicorn that shine when you hold it against the light. He asked me to guess what color his car will be when he become an adult. I didn't guess very good. So he told me that it will be yellow with black stripe like the bumble bee in the movie called "Transformer". He talked about making a bike ride plan. He is very talkative young boy...He put big smile when I think about it through the day..He talk just like his mom...His mom love to talk too...(sorry sweetie pie) hehehe

After we left McDonald, we decided to take the trail on the way back home. While we were walking, my grandson grabbed me and said look, there is a bug that like to swim on the water, later he got me again and said look, there is our first bumble bee we saw this spring. After that I shout and said look, bird, yellow finches. It was a very nice walk together as we explored the nature. When we were almost home, I asked him if he had a good time. He said OH YEAH....

The Blind Boy

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat.

A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'

The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.'
What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.'

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was much more effective?


Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.


The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling
And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it.

Little Gentleman

Yesterday, my grandson (6 yrs old) and I went to the library. We spent about one hour at the library and then I took him out to eat for lunch. We went to McDonald. We ate and talked for awhile and then it was time for my grandson to get his free ice cream cone. He told me that he wanted to go alone and get it himself. I stood from the booth and watched him. My grandson stood behind the older couple as he was waiting. The two little girls ( about 4 and 5 yrs old) and their grandpa came up. The two girls stood in front of my grandson. The grandpa of the two girls told them to go behind my grandson and he told my grandson to go ahead. This one surprise me and put a big smile on my face, my grandson told the man that he wanted the girls to go first. After he got his ice cream cone, he came and sat down. I said him what I saw and that the man was trying to teach the girls how to get in line and not to cut in. Now get this, my grandson said that he wanted the girls go first because he feel that is the right thing to do. I told him that it was very nice of him to do that and that he turned into a little gentleman. Wow, how many little boy or young boy do I see will do that. I have seen so many children who do not have manner or have not been taught to have good manner. I have seen elder men who let lady go first but not young boy or men doing that. Generation sure have change. I am very proud of my grandson for letting the girls goes first and act like a little gentleman. Most of all, I am very proud of my daughter who taught him how to be nice and how to treat girl/lady nice. I can see my grandson in the future to be a best husband and a father. Now I have a grandson who is little gentleman. :)

The Story of the Sea Captain

I was reading a book and I found this story about the Sea Captain. It touch my heart and I had to share this.

The Story of the Sea Captain

An ungodly sea captain was stricken with a fatal disease in mid-ocean. The ship’s doctor said, “Captain, you cannot live more than twenty-four hours.” The old captain was terrified and wasn’t prepared to die. He demanded that someone from his crew come and read to him the Bible and pray for him.

Finally, the cook’s boy, little Willie Platt, entered the captain’s quarters quietly. The captain said, “Willie, I want you to read something about God having mercy on a sinner like me.” At first the boy didn’t know what text to read, but finally he found a verse that had been marked by his mother before she died. It was Isaiah 53: 5
But He was wounded for your transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. (NKJV)

But the servant was pierced because we had sinned. He was crushed because we had done what was evil. He was punished to make us whole again. His wounds have healed us. (NIrV)

The captain said, “That sounds like what I need. Read it again.” Encouraged by the captain’s response, Willie said, “Captain, I would like to read this verse the way my mother taught me to read it.” “That will be fine, Willie,” responded the captain.

Slowly and reverently Willie read: “But Jesus was pierced because Willie Platt had sinned. Jesus was crushed because Willie Platt had done what was evil. Jesus was punished to make Willie Platt whole again. Jesus’ wounds have healed Willie Platt.” (Put your name down as you replace Willie Platt)

By this time the captain was halfway over the edge of the bed. He said, “Son, read it again and put your old captain’s name in there.” Then Willie again reverently read: Jesus was pierced because John Clout had sinned. Jesus was crushed because John Clout had done what was evil. Jesus was punished to make John Clout whole again. Jesus’ wounds have healed John Clout.”

The captain fell back upon his pillow and repeated over and over again this beautiful text, putting his own name into it every time. Finally light from heaven broke in upon his darkened soul. He received him who saves to the uttermost.

I want to put my name into this text, don’t you? And let’s do it again in Hebrews 13:5b

For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (NKJV)

For Jesus has said, “I will never leave _________ nor forsake __________.”
your name your name

Feel Love from little one

Today, my one year old grandson made me feel the love. As my daughter asked me to come over, I had my coat on and my grandson came to me. He tried to help me to take off my coat even I had to go back home to get some books that my daughter needed. I took my coat off just for a little while. My grandson took my coat and try to hang up my coat. Then he gave me his sipper cup and push me to the kitchen. He was trying to tell me that he need water to drink. I felt the love from my grandson as he knew that I love him and do anything for him. It is a welcome love simple from an one year old little boy. A simple communication and easy to understand without a word. I am very proud of my daughter for the ways she raise her four children (my grandkids). She continue to teach the kids how to give love in different ways just what the Lord will have done. I love my daughter very much and God gave me a very precious child in my life. We have our hardship but we continue to love each other and learn together. When we have God's love in our heart, we can work out together and listen to each others but most of all, we can sure talk about the love of God who is important in our life. I couldn't ask for anything better.
GOD IS LOVE.....

Poem - I wrote - Grab Jesus' Hands

Grab Jesus' Hands

There were times I fell off the wall
I collapsed into a deep mud that I couldn’t get myself out
My trails were so difficult that I sweated as I struggled to get out
The pain put a burden on my heart that I was so weak
I shed tears and cried out for help

Over the other side of the wall were two strong hands
He said, “My child, you can give me your struggles
Lift your hands up to Me, grab My hands and hold on tight
I will pull you up and over the wall where you will be with Me
Together we will pass over the mountain of problems ”

I looked up and saw whose strong hands it belonged to
I grabbed His hands for I knew who it was
He had a bright face that shone of love
The only Person who has most love than anyone
That is Jesus, my Savior

There were times I tumbled off the wall
I landed on soft mud, as I tried to get up
I was stumbling all over the place
Suddenly I remembered the days
When Jesus called me from the wall
All I had to do was to look up at the wall
I saw my sweet Jesus’ hands
I grabbed His hands

Grab Jesus’ hands I will
He will lift me up from any strife
That I may be facing and
I will never have to be alone
He promises to be with me
As long as I hold His hands

Cute Picuture

I was going through my photo album and I found this cute picture which I love. It make me think that I can write my sins in pencil and give it to Jesus and He will use the eraser to erase my sins off. I am so thankful. I know that I had sins in so many different ways and it is not easy to be sinless like Christ. I am thankful that I can go to Christ and ask forgiven. I know that I have to keep doing that everyday.

Here is the cute picture:
