Friday Fellowship Welcomes New Faces

Praise the Lord for bringing new students to our fellowship.

Huang Zhun (黄准), Wei Zirui (魏子瑞), Xie Hao (谢浩), and Wu Shaodi (吴绍迪) are computer science Master students at SJSU, who just graduated and looking to start their career. May God lead them in their pursuit, and reveal Himself to them through the process.

Evera and Flora joined us from south San Francisco. Evera just moved to the bay area from New York after recently graduating from Columbia University, she and Yan were classmates.

Welcome everyone to our family!

We enjoyed Hymn derived from Psalm 23 :

23:1耶和华是我的牧者;我必不至缺乏。
23:2祂使我躺卧在青草地上,领我在可安歇的水边。
23:3祂使我的魂苏醒,为自己的名引导我走义路。
23:4我虽然行过死荫的幽谷,也不怕遭害,因为你与我同在;你的杖,你的竿,都安慰我。
23:5在我敌人面前,你为我摆设筵席;你用油膏了我的头,使我的福杯满溢。
23:6我一生一世必有恩惠慈爱随着我,我且要住在耶和华的殿中,直到永远。

We each shared what we are lacking in the current state of our lives, but praise the Lord for letting us see what we really lack. "Jehovah is my Shepherd; I will lack nothing".

Our physical body will always have needs; our mind will always want something we currently do not have, a new job, a new car, a new house, a trip to somewhere, skills, confidence, new experiences, ....; once we had it, we will want more, never satisfied. Isn't this an endless cycle?

May God reveal the truth to everyone of us, that He is the only and everything we need; once we have God in us, anything else is unimportant. Like Jesus said in the gospel of John :


4:13耶稣回答说,凡喝这水的,还要再渴;
4:14人若喝我所赐的水,就永远不渴;我所赐的水,要在他里面成为泉源,直涌入永远的生命。
