"All is well", " everything is going to be okay", "nothing to worry", "don't be afraid" Easier said than done, right?  When you are going through a difficult situation or When you feel like you are sailing into an unending road of wilderness, sometimes those words are hard to believe and accept. sometimes it can't help to ease your troubled heart. But-- How do you find peace when you are in the middle of a raging storm? How could you relax in an uncertain place? How could you calm your heart when fear is eager to control you?  How could you manage to sleep and rest regardless of what's happening in your surroundings? Why are you in despair , O my soul? And why are you restless and disturbed within me?  23  Then Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake with his disciples.   24  Suddenly, a fierce storm struck the lake, with waves breaking into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.   25  The disci

There was once a Jewish man traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho when bandits robbed him along the way. They beat him severely, stripped him naked, and left him half dead. “Soon, a Jewish priest walking down the same road came upon the wounded man. Seeing him from a distance, the priest crossed to the other side of the road and walked right past him, not turning to help him one bit. “Later, a religious man, a Levite, came walking down the same road and likewise crossed to the other side to pass by the wounded man without stopping to help him. “ Finally, another man, a Samaritan , came upon the bleeding man and was moved with tender compassion for him.   He stooped down and gave him first aid, pouring olive oil on his wounds, disinfecting them with wine, and bandaging them to stop the bleeding.

And I think it’s a good way to start this letter. So how’s your heart today my friend? It’s been a while since we greet each other and ask these questions. I hope we can catch up with each other sometime soon and hear your stories once again. Last time I saw you laughing with your friends, the other time you are walking alone. Yet you are still wearing those smile and I like the way how you smile when you greeted someone. Somehow, it can lift up discouraged soul. Yesterday I saw you again, this time with your family. You are having chitchat with them while eating at your favorite restaurant and I knew that you enjoy and savor the moment with them. Then the following day I heard you how you encourage the stranger not to
