What I got from Jesus is: Magnificat 尊主為大!

This is my top No. 3 golden verse which the Lord used to lead me focus on Him in the midst of all kinds of hardship, crisis, accusation, darkness and danger!

For years if someone ask me to write something in a card or a book I always write "Magnificat, Emmanuel 尊主為大 以馬內利".

Why? Because that's how God has been teaching me and leading me all the past 30 years since I was born again! We so long to experience Emmanuel which is God with us. But, what I have learned is that without our souls like Mary glorified the Lord in her most difficult moment and her unknown future, we can not experience Emmanuel.

So, memorize this two verses and you will know what I mean when you face with your unknown future and in the midst of crisis next time.

Dear Lord Jesus,

Lead us to be able to focus on you and glorify you in all circumstance so that we can really experience your presence, Emmanuel.  In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

**1100 DAYS of prayers now!!!

**NEW link for the 11th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign(from August 25 to December 03, 2012).

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week to pray for me, my family and my ministry, remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,100 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,100 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!
