International Students and I-Pal farewell gathering

One of the fun and family group that I was involved on campus.
Is a group of International Students and I-Pal (local students), we have lots of activities, gathering and random meetings. 
I-Pals are the students who assist and guide the international students when they are here.
Love this group of people, motivate me to learn more,
 learn the different culture, eat the different type of food, and also listen to songs with different languages.
I think we are going to have more international students next semester, which will be fun!!!!!!

Thank you all for all the blessings!!!

谢谢大家在影片中,视讯中,照片与文字上的生日祝福。
回想起当初乘风破浪来到不熟悉的地方开始人生另一个阶段,不知不觉就这样过了一年。
与主同行,并不代表生活会是风平浪静,但在风暴中经历祂的同在与信实其实挺刺激的,越挫越勇或许就是这个意思吧。
一切都是神的恩典, 如今的每一步以及所拥有的一切,绝对不是靠自己的能力所得,每每提起,越是提醒自己要谦卑,要感恩。
生日不再像以往一样在旅行中度过,也没有任何庆祝,而是和家人视讯,一同数算恩典,一同祷告。不知道从什么时候忘记了自己的年龄,
所以今年生日选择忘掉自己的年龄;年龄是个包袱,身边每一个人都带着别人的期许过着这年龄该有的生活,问问你身边的人吧,
这是种压力。现在的我活得像18岁,思想上却像30岁,数字对我来说并没有任何的意义,重要的是怎么能活出有意义的人生。
最后,再次谢谢大家在不同层面上支持我,不仅是灵命上,精神上,以及外在需要上。单靠我自己是不可能走到这一步,
在祷告中纪念你们每一个人,愿神赐福与你们也与你们同在。爱你们哟!!!


Thanks for all the birthday blessing from your short clips, video calls, photos, and texts. Can't believe it is 
almost a year ever since I came to the States. Walking with the Lord does not mean that life will be easy 
and calm, but throughout the storm, I experience his presence and faithfulness.
Everything is by God's grace, every step and blessings I have now, absolutely not by my own ability or my 
strengths, every time as I mentioned, the more reminded myself to be humble and be grateful. Birthday is no 
longer the same as I used to travel around in the past, no celebration, but video call with my family counted the 
blessings together and prayed together. Grateful and cherish all these precious moments we have.
Don't know since when I forget my own age, so this year's birthday I choose to forget my age; age is a burden, 
everyone around me lives their life with someone else's expectations of their age. Ask people around you, 
it's full of pressure and stressful. Now my mentality like 18 years old, my maturity like 30 years old, the number 
of my age no longer important to me but the way I live my life matters.
Once again, thank you for all the spirituality, mentality and physically supports. I can't go this far by myself, 
I will keep you all in my prayer, may the Lord bless you and be with you. Love you all!!!

美术......

这学期过得好不真实却十分充实,尽管没有任何一堂的美术课,但仍不停止学习的机会。
教授们让我选择一个角落当自己的画画工作室,怕光线不足,还帮我安装灯,帮我订购全部画画需要的颜料等,超级感恩!!
学期结束前,完成了15幅画,每幅画背后都有独特的意思。全部都挑战不同的风格,打破自己惯性的思维,不断地突破自己。
暑假将好好休息,为自己充电,下学期再回来冲刺吧!!!

Last CRU gathering!!!

Last CRU for this semester!
Went to the park and barbecue!!! Play balls, eat and meet new friends!!! 
Good reminder from the pastor, Summer is coming, and that shouldn't be the reason for us to stay away from God,
but continue to pray and read His Word. Experience His great love and grace during the three months break, 
and be excited to share it out when we return to campus. 
Not only that, also pray for the new freshmen, estimate 600+ new students in this coming Fall semester. 
Pray that we can be the light in campus, reach them and bring them to Christ, pray that their life will change by God!
Love to be in this CRUmunity!!
