The common word in our prayer very often is "Please", we alwasy ask help from God, and forget about saying Thank You to God for every small little blessing in our life.
and sometime we dont need a particular reason to say Thank you to someone, but just because of love. God sent his precious son to die for us not because of what we have done, but because of who we are.
10 things to thank God for today.

"Every day may not be good, but there's something good in every day, stay positive"
I used to listen to this song everyday, just makes me forget about all my trouble, ha
When I looked at the songs list of the CD that my friend gave me, I was like shounted it out, becoz it has a song that I wanted for very very long time. The first time I heard that song was in OCF easter camp 2008, someone was performing that song as a presentation, her voice was so nice, the lyrics was so simple but somehow so real to me, and the melody is so peaceful too.
and here is the song
Five Loaves and 2 Fishes
A little boy of thirteen was on his way to school
He heard a crowd of people laughing and he went to take a look
Thousands were listening to the stories of one man
He spoke with such wisdom, even the kids could understand
--------------------------
The hours passed so quickly, the day turned to night
Everyone was hungry but there was no food in sight
The boy looked in his lunchbox at the little that he had
He wasn't sure what good it'd do, there were thousands to be fed
--------------------------
But he saw the twinkling eyes of Jesus
The kindness in His smile
And the boy cried out With the trust of a child he said:
--------------------------
"Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will I surrender
Take my fears and my inhibitionsAll my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all to feed them all"
---------------------------
I often think about that boy when I'm feeling small
And I worry that the work I do means nothing at all
-----------------------------
But every single tear I cry is a diamond in His hands
And every door that slams in my face, I will offer up in prayer
----------------------------
So I'll give you every breath that I have
Oh Lord, you can work miraclesAll that you need is my "Amen"
-------------------------------
So take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you willI surrender
Take my fears and my inhibitions
ll my burdens, my ambitionsYou can use it allI hope it's not too small
-----------------------------
I trust in you I trust in you
------------------------------
So take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will I surrender
Take my fears and my inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitionsYou can use it all
No gift is too small
I wonder if I was that boy, looking at all the people that waiting to be fed and with the little that I have in my bag, what would be the first thing that came to my mind? Would I ever try and believe that my little can feed the thousand? Do I have enough faith?
But he saw the twinkling eyes of Jesus The kindness in His smile And the boy cried out With the trust of a child
Sometime I am tired of talking to other people, after you met so many people and old enough, just feel that some people like to wear a mask, when you go into the corporate world, people just get more complicated. We become more logical to the things that happen around us and like to reason throught many times.
However, somehow God just make me understand that something can't be understand in a logical way, micracle will happen in different form, and all we need is the childlike faith.
Children are very real, they say what they think. With the small little faith they have, it might change the world one day.
"By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land;but when the Egyptian tried to do so, they were drowned" Hebrews 11:8
