For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say "NO" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope- the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good!
These, then, are the things you should teach. encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you.
Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good, to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and always to be gentle toward everyone.
At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by this grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.
Lord, let these words soak into my body, my mind and my soul so I understand and remember. Thank you for your grace that we may say No to ungodliness and world passions. Father, in this upcoming new year, help me to learn about self-controlled....be able to live with discipline. Thank you for saving me through your blood.

Thankful
I am thankful for mommy cook for me
I am thankful for sister to hang out with me
I am thankful for daddy to drive all the way to Guangzhou just to spend a day with me
I am thankful for Henry to stay by my side, hear me cry, and comfort me
I am thankful for God who never give up on me, loving me, accepting me, died for me because of my sin.

訂好場地
今晚定好場地了！
感覺十分開心，踏實，也格外興奮幸福
討論著婚禮當天我想要那個，希望那個，需要那個
討論討論著⋯越來越沈重
Henry 跟我的態度不知不覺因為不同想法跟感受開始非常僵持，不太開心
今晚發現，其實在這樣半吵架，半冷淡的狀態中，我才是那個不太會接納他情緒的人，甚至不知道怎麼應對有情緒無法言語也無法主動做任何事情的他，只想罵人發洩得到他的反應，或是遠離這個場景來試圖安靜一下。原來我才是那個真正不知道怎麼應對和接納有情緒的人😂
