Let us talents and tongues employ


This Sunday is the first Sunday of August! We will have a communion service.

I have chosen Jamaican folk melody based anthem, "Let us talents and tongues employ."

Here is the text. Enjoy!

1. Let us talents and tongues employ, reaching out with a shout of joy:
bread is broken, the wine is poured, Christ is spoken and seen and heard.

Refrain:
Jesus lives again earth can breathe again pass the word around: loaves abound!

2. Christ is able to make us one, at the table he sets the tone.
Teaching people to live to bless, love in word and indeed express.

3. Jesus calls us in, sends us out. Bearing fruit in a world of doubt, gives us love to tell,
bread to share: God Immanuel every where.

Your Grace is enough for me!

My family and I have been looking for two things lately; house and a pet. I can tell you that to find both of them is not easy at all. Both of them are very important to be chosen because after we choose to be with, we need to be with it at least for several years. I have been worn out to look both! and started complaining and being whinny. How come someone has everything not me. I know all things has started again from "comparison". Honestly, I have had a pretty good life so far. I have wonderful super parents, family, husband, kids, and been given so much to enjoy. How can I be so whinny with those matter? On the way to work, there was a song from His radio "Your grace is enough for me". How about that! His endless love, grace, and Himself! All from Him is enough for me. I decided not to be whinny anymore instead, I will look to the Cross to remind myself how blessed I am from Jesus!! His grace and love.
