"High & Lows"

High: I read the Bible together with Team two this morning after PT, and we started from Joshua chapter four. In this chapter, God ask Israelites to set up twelve stones at Gilgal which they had taken out of the Jordan. God had said to the Israelites, “In the future when your descendants ask their fathers, ‘what do these stones mean?’, tell them, ‘Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’ For the Lord your God dried up the Jordan before you until you had crossed over.” I think that the twelve stones plays an important role in Israel’s history. Because human beings, easily forgot what God had done for them. For example, I want to have great progress on my school grade, so I prayed God’s helping hand. However, when I really got my goal, I was not really thank for God’s help. Instead, I thought that I did a good job. So we can keep a diary to remember that God’s grace.

Funny & low: While I was in the elevator from seven floor to the first floor for breakfast, an American girl was in the elevator too. (P.S. I don’t know her name.) When we were arrived at first floor, the door opened. At that moment, an image flashed into my mind, and that was – being a gentleman. As a result, I wanted to push the button “open” and let her go out of the elevator first. And I pushed it, smiling at her. Yet, her face look a little weird. I wondering why she opened her eyes so big, maybe she had not seen so gentle a man before? After she went out, I looked at the button I pushed, and . . . oops. . . oops. . . oops. I could not believe my eyes, and I was crazy embarrassed that I pushed the wrong button. I pushed the button that is “close.” I thought she might want to “wash my face” at that very moment.

Low: After lunch, I went back to my room to take a rest. However, my watch “cut on me,” so I was late for class. As a result, I done twenty push-ups.
