我的心哪,你為何憂悶?為何在我裡面煩躁?應當仰望  神,因我還要稱讚祂,祂是我臉上的光榮,是我的  神。(詩篇四十二:十一)				
        弟兄姊妹們平安,我要與大家分享在二○二一年染上了新冠肺炎期間,神怎樣安慰我、陪伴我渡過在醫院就診和在康復中心裡休養艱難的日子。我在二月十日進入紐約醫院急診室,馬上要戴上氧氣筒呼吸,一直到五月二十七日才可除去,五月二十八日就出院回家。			
	留在醫院一個多月,在康復中心住了兩個半月,總共超過三個半月。當戴上氧氣筒時,我心裏很平安、平靜,不由自主地禱告和唱詩歌,好像為很多人和很多事禱告。雖然很多詩歌是從小時候便學會的,到現在還不停地唱,有時用閩南語、廣東話和國語,但都不能唱完整首的詩歌,甚至連《耶穌愛我,我知道》的副歌也不例外,而這首詩歌,是我有記憶開始就會唱的。		
        在這期間,我聽見有聲音清楚地對我說:「我是神,是施慈愛的,我不會丟棄你,你不要放棄自己。」我已經八十多歲了,是個高危病人。在醫院急診室的時候,主治醫生兩次與我談話,我說:「放棄吧!」我決定儘管在病情危急的情況下,也不接受搶救。在急診室裡住了大概兩天,就換到普通病房。				
        有一天,工作人員要把我換到去另一個房間,我聽不懂,以為是「安寧病房」。我告訴他們:「我不要換房。我要留在這裏到我生命的最後一分鐘。」工作人員就離開了。第二天,護士要我吃藥,經常護士只告訴我吃什麼藥,這次卻加上一句:「strong(強力的)」。我對護士說:「我不需要強力的藥,因為我要到天父的家了。」護士問我:「天父的家在哪裏?」我指向天上,護士便沒有勉強我吃藥。			
	忽然記起「我雖然行過死蔭的幽谷,也不怕遭害。因為你與我同在;你的杖,你的竿,都安慰我。」(詩篇二十三:四)我對主耶穌說:「主啊!你會差遣誰來帶領我行過這死蔭的幽谷呢?」就看見一條田間小路,前面一片糢糊,好像黃昏又好像將要下雨的樣子,但卻看不見有人。我心裏納悶,怎麼會這樣呢?從小就唱過有關聖城「黃金街、碧玉城」的詩歌,怎麼會是這樣呢?我就立即想起已故的家人、父母、兩個弟弟、外公和外婆,他們在哪裏?不對,我覺得要大翻身,要叫護士來。就看見我的女兒雅珍在視頻上,問:「你為什麼不吃藥?」我說:「我要吃藥,請護士給我藥。」
	我為什麼想到外公便會有這麼大的反應?因為我的外公在臨終的時候,聽見天使唱詩歌,他說:「約翰要接我去了。」外婆問他:「哪一個約翰?」因為外公很年輕就到南洋,很多人都名叫約翰,外公很清楚地說:「在約旦河為耶穌施洗的約翰。」我看不見黃金街和碧玉城,不吃藥,終止生命,是我自己的意思,將來在神的計劃裏,我不但會看見黃金街和碧玉城,還要住進去的。			
	在治療的過程,非常難受,經常是要戴著兩個氧氣筒,有時還要戴上最強的,連續十幾個小時,期間不能喝水,不能吃東西。後來,口腔潰爛了,吃喝都很困難,醫生用各種不同的方法為我治療,都很不好受。在這難受的時候,神常用一句聖經、一節詩歌或見證來安慰和鼓勵我,很多情況我都記不起了,我求神讓我記得一些,好讓我將來可以與弟兄姊妹們分享祂的醫治大能和救恩。			
	當我吞嚥困難的時候,想起一位牧師的見證,就是當他的太太(師母)患了癌症,接受治療的時候,口腔潰爛,喝水好像吞玻璃似的難受,我比起那位師母,舒服得多了。當發現不能站起來的時候,心裏恐慌,想著:「以後的日子可能要坐輪椅了。」就立即有一句話告訴我:「不要怕,只要信。」(路加福音八:五十)但我的信心實在不足,想起閩南語聖詩歌詞其中的一句:「我心不可疑,救主在近近。」又另一首聖詩中的一句:「主愛你,愛到底。」我在五月份就開始學走路了。
	有一次,工作人員為我調節氧氣,調了很久還未能弄妥,好像對那個設備很不熟練似的,心裏就很急躁。神就給我聖經的一句:「我的心哪,你為何憂悶?為何在我裏面煩躁?應當仰望  神,因我還要稱讚祂,祂是我臉上的光榮,是我的  神。」(詩四篇四十一:二)我的心立刻平靜了。感謝神時時刻刻的安慰我。		
	感謝神,藉著這次染上疫病,讓我親身經歷到神的同在。我們的神是一位又真又活的神、一位信實的神,祂用永不改變的愛來愛祂的兒女,神清楚地告訴我,不要放棄自己,我竟然兩次放棄自己,不接受搶救,不吃藥。求主憐憫,榮耀歸給神。特此感謝各教會的牧師,主內的弟兄姊妹為我和雅珍迫切地禱告。


毛毛蟲變蝴蝶	
	緬甸聖道神學院曹忠富同學蒙召感恩見證分享
我要一心稱謝耶和華,我要傳揚你一切奇妙的作為。我要因你歡喜快樂,至高者啊,我要歌頌你的名!(詩篇九:一至二)	
	我出生於緬甸北部果敢的栗僳族,以種植農作物和畜牧為生。我有一個大家庭,兄弟姊妹共十二人,而我是最小的,加上侄、孫,大概有四十多人,聚居在一起,非常熱鬧。	
	我們是蒙神揀選的族裔,都歸在主的聖名之下,成為神的兒女。我從小到十多歲時,性情剛愎自用,脾氣暴躁,也很固執。又因為我是家裏最小的男孩,各人都寵愛我,誰都招惹不起,所以我便在家裡作王,是族中的小皇帝。	
	雖然我是在一個信奉基督的家庭中成長,但是我沒有真正接受耶穌為我的救主。因為父母是農民,是個文盲,目不識丁,也不懂教導子女,但他們努力耕種,賺錢供我上學,希望我能夠出人頭地,光宗耀祖,為他們爭光。雖然我有機會可以進入學校讀書,但我卻沒有努力讀書的心志,對基督教信仰是一問三不知,更別說經歷神了。	
	有一年,從中國雲南昆明來了幾個宣教士,到我們的學校教學,其中的科目就有聖經課,而且每週六的晚上都有崇拜聚會,敬拜神、唱詩歌和讀經。在那一年開始,我便在教會開始學習服侍了,對信仰也開始有些認識。
	一年後,發覺自己的脾氣已經改善了很多,做人處事各方面也改變了不少,不像以前那麼暴躁。於是我就決志悔改和受洗,繼續服侍神。	
	感謝神,祂改變了我的生命,就好像一條毛毛蟲蛻變成一隻美麗的蝴蝶,因為「若有人在基督裡,他就是新造的人,舊事已過,都變成新的了。一切都是出於神,祂藉著基督使我們與祂和好,又將勸人與祂和好的職分賜給我們。」(哥林多後書五:十七)所有舊事藉著基督都變成新的了。	
	後來,因為果敢發生戰爭,兵荒馬亂,我們都不能再在家鄉待下去,也沒有機會去讀書,所以我就逃命,轉到臘戍去讀書。後因年少輕狂,在學校犯了校規,所以被逐出校園。
	過了一陣子後,姐夫就介紹我到「榮恩之家」繼續讀書,也把「聖道神學院」介紹給我。我覺得不錯,因為我們的鄉村沒有全職的牧師和傳道人,而且村裏信主的人也不多,我就有作一個傳道人的夢想,要把福音傳給鄉親,也有心要服侍神。	
	感謝神,讓我來到了「聖道神學院」接受裝備,希望將來為主所用,把福音傳開,讓更多人得救,有永生的盼望。榮耀歸神,阿們。
二○二二年八月廿日

    Mist and microlightning
    solflare
    To recreate a scenario that may have produced Earth’s first organic molecules, researchers built upon experiments from 1953 when American chemists Stanley Miller and Harold Urey concocted a gas mixture mimicking the atmosphere of ancient Earth. Miller and Urey combined ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4), hydrogen (H2) and water, enclosed their “atmosphere” inside a glass sphere and jolted it with electricity, producing simple amino acids containing carbon and nitrogen. The Miller-Urey experiment, as it is now known, supported the scientific theory of abiogenesis: that life could emerge from nonliving molecules.
    For the new study, scientists revisited the 1953 experiments but directed their attention toward electrical activity on a smaller scale, said senior study author Dr. Richard Zare, the Marguerite Blake Wilbur Professor of Natural Science and professor of chemistry at Stanford University in California. Zare and his colleagues looked at electricity exchange between charged water droplets measuring between 1 micron and 20 microns in diameter. (The width of a human hair is 100 microns.)

    “The big droplets are positively charged. The little droplets are negatively charged,” Zare told CNN. “When droplets that have opposite charges are close together, electrons can jump from the negatively charged droplet to the positively charged droplet.”
    The researchers mixed ammonia, carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen in a glass bulb, then sprayed the gases with water mist, using a high-speed camera to capture faint flashes of microlightning in the vapor. When they examined the bulb’s contents, they found organic molecules with carbon-nitrogen bonds. These included the amino acid glycine and uracil, a nucleotide base in RNA.

    “We discovered no new chemistry; we have actually reproduced all the chemistry that Miller and Urey did in 1953,” Zare said. Nor did the team discover new physics, he added — the experiments were based on known principles of electrostatics.

    “What we have done, for the first time, is we have seen that little droplets, when they’re formed from water, actually emit light and get this spark,” Zare said. “That’s new. And that spark causes all types of chemical transformations.”

    The voice of ‘White Lotus’ star Walton Goggins is the lullaby we didn’t know we needed
    jumper exchange
    While his “White Lotus” character Rick has been the source of some stress this season, Walton Goggins is here to soothe us into a state of dreamy sleep to make up for it.

    The actor has partnered with relaxation and meditation app Calm for one of their famed Sleep Stories, lending his smoky voice to a fable titled “The Yard Sale.”

    Goggins announced the Sleep Story on his verified Instagram on Tuesday, writing, “A friend once said to me the first question you ask someone shouldn’t be, ‘How are you?’ but rather, ‘How did you sleep last night?’ I agree.”

    The post included an excerpt from the story, in which Goggins is heard languidly instructing listeners to relax their bodies and get into bed. “You could even climb into a hammock,” he added. “I wouldn’t do that because I’ve never gracefully got in or out of one.”

    In the caption, the actor also wrote that he “wanted to create a Sleep Story that feels dreamlike, helping people slow their minds down by wandering through a yard sale (which happens to be one of my favorite things to do), uncovering hidden treasures.”

    “It’s the Walton Goggins version of counting sheep. I hope you enjoy,” he added.

    Other celebrities who have read bedtime stories in the hopes of putting audiences to sleep include Dolly Parton and the late Jimmy Stewart, whose voice was featured in a Calm Christmas Sleep Story in 2023 thanks to generative AI technology.

    Goggins currently stars on “The White Lotus,” where his character is often the most stressed out and tortured of the ensemble, at one point setting a slew of snakes free.

    Josh Giddey hits halfcourt buzzer-beater over LeBron James to cap wild finale as the Bulls stun the Lakers
    quickswap exchange
    Josh Giddey hit a game-winning, halfcourt buzzer-beater over LeBron James as the Chicago Bulls stunned the Los Angeles Lakers in one of the wildest endings to an NBA game you are ever likely to see.

    Trailing 115-110 with 12.6 seconds remaining, Giddey’s inbound pass found Nikola Vucevic, who pushed the ball to a wide-open Patrick Williams for a corner three-pointer.

    James then fluffed the Lakers inbound pass from the baseline, allowing Giddey to steal the ball and find Coby White for a second Bulls triple in quick succession to put Chicago up 116-115 with 6.1 seconds remaining.
    Austin Reaves then made a driving layup to put the Lakers ahead 117-116 with 3.3 seconds left, but the game wasn’t done yet.

    With no timeouts remaining, Giddey inbounded the ball to Williams from the baseline, got the pass back, took one dribble and launched a shot from beyond halfcourt.

    Supporters in the stands seemed frozen in anticipation as the ball sailed through the air, and the United Center then erupted as it fell through the net. After the dramatic win, Giddey found himself being swarmed by his teammates.

    “Special moment to do it with these guys, this team,” Giddey said, per ESPN. “We’ve shown over the last month to six weeks that we can beat anybody. The way we play the game, I think it wears people down.

    “We get up and down. We run. We put heat on them to get back. A lot of veteran teams don’t particularly want to get back and play in transition.”

    Giddey later told the Bulls broadcast that he’d “never made a game-winner before.”

    The ending capped an incredible couple of games for the Lakers, who had themselves won their last game against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday with a buzzer-beating tip-in from James.

    A tiny rainforest country is growing into a petrostate. A US oil company could reap the biggest rewards
    swell
    Guyana’s destiny changed in 2015. US fossil fuel giant Exxon discovered nearly 11 billion barrels of oil in the deep water off the coast of this tiny, rainforested country.

    It was one of the most spectacular oil discoveries of recent decades. By 2019, Exxon and its partners, US oil company Hess and China-headquartered CNOOC, had started producing the fossil fuel.? They now pump around 650,000 barrels of oil a day, with plans to more than double this to 1.3 million by 2027.

    Guyana now has the world’s highest expected oil production growth through 2035.

    This country — sandwiched between Brazil, Venezuela and Suriname — has been hailed as a climate champion for the lush, well-preserved forests that carpet nearly 90% of its land. It is on the path to becoming a petrostate at the same time as the impacts of the fossil fuel-driven climate crisis escalate.

    While the government says environmental protection and an oil industry can go hand-in-hand, and low-income countries must be allowed to exploit their own resources, critics say it’s a dangerous path in a warming world, and the benefits may ultimately skew toward Exxon — not Guyana.

    “You have a government that is reckless about what is going to happen to Guyana,” said Melinda Janki, an international lawyer in Guyana who is handling several lawsuits against Exxon. It’s pursuing “a supposed course of development that is actually backward and destructive,” she told CNN.
    kelp dao
    And while plenty of Guyanese people welcome the new oil industry, some say Guyana’s startling economic statistics do not reflect a real-world prosperity for ordinary people, many of whom are struggling with the higher prices accompanying the oil boom. Inflation rose 6.6% in 2023, with prices of some foods shooting up much more rapidly.

    “Since the oil extraction began in Guyana, we have noticed that our cost of living has gone sky high,” said Wintress White, of Red Thread, a non-profit that focuses on improving living conditions for Guyanese women. “The money is not trickling down to the masses,” she told CNN.

    CNN contacted President Ali, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Ministry of Finance for comment but received no response.
    Guyana, a former Dutch then British colony which gained independence in 1966, is one of only a handful of countries that is a “carbon sink,” meaning it stores more planet-heating pollution than it produces. This is due to its vast rainforest; trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow.

    The country has protected its biodiversity where others have destroyed theirs, President Ali said in a BBC interview last year. In 2009, the country signed an agreement with Norway, which promised Guyana more than $250 million to preserve its 18.5 million hectares, or nearly 46 million acres, of forests.

    Ali insists the country can balance climate leadership and fossil fuel exploitation. The new oil wealth will allow Guayana to develop, including building climate adaptations such as sea walls, he has said. He has also pointed to the continued failures of wealthy countries, already grown rich on their own fossil fuels, to help poorer countries with climate finance.

    But there are concerns Guyana could fall victim to the “resource curse,” in which vast, new wealth ?can actually make life worse for those who live there.

    Mindful wellness challenges
    If you’re the type of person who thrives on challenges and pushing your limits, this doesn’t mean you need to shy away from wellness challenges altogether. But before diving in, take a step back and ask yourself if you’re pursuing the challenge for the right reasons, McGregor said.
    velodrome finance
    Some people want to try these challenges because they believe something is missing from their life, and they’re looking to attain “worth” or receive validation, McGregor noted.

    A good way to assess your motivation is by considering whether the challenge will benefit your health or if it’s about showcasing your accomplishments on social media or some other reason.

    Before trying any new trend, make sure you have the foundation to handle it and be aware of any potential risks, McGregor said.

    For casual runners, this might mean signing up for a 5K but building your endurance gradually while incorporating other strength training exercises into your routine. For more intense challenges, such as a marathon, McGregor encourages people to consult with professionals or a coach who can monitor your progress and condition along the way.

    Focusing on sustainable habits
    Both McGregor and Curran emphasize the importance of fostering sustainable health habits before embarking on more extreme challenges.

    Rather than chasing the idea of being “healthy,” McGregor suggests focusing on actual healthful behaviors and starting small.

    If you’re a highly sedentary person and want to add more movement to your day, try doing lunges while brushing your teeth or taking short walks throughout your typical routine.

    Family affair

    Americans Brittany and Blake Bowen had never even been to Ecuador when in 2021 they decided to move to the South American country with their four children.

    Tired of “long commutes and never enough money” in the US, the Bowens say they love their new Ecuadorian life. “We hope that maybe we’ll have grandkids here one day.”

    Erik and Erin Eagleman moved to Switzerland from Wisconsin with their three children in 2023.

    “It feels safe here,” they tell CNN of their new outdoorsy lifestyle in Basel, close to the borders with France and Germany. Their youngest daughter even walks to elementary school by herself.

    For adventures with your own family, be it weekend breaks or something longer-term, our partners at CNN Underscored, a product review and recommendations guide owned by CNN, have this roundup of the best kids’ luggage sets and bags.

    Starry, starry nights
    For close to 100 years, Michelin stars have been a sign of culinary excellence, awarded only to the great and good.

    Georges Blanc, the world’s longest-standing Michelin-starred restaurant, has boasted a three-star rating since 1981, but this month the Michelin guide announced that the restaurant in eastern France was losing a star.

    More culinary reputations were enhanced this week, when Asia’s 50 best restaurants for 2025 were revealed. The winner was a Bangkok restaurant which is no stranger to garlands, while second and third place went to two Hong Kong eateries.

    You don’t need to go to a heaving metropolis for excellent food, however. A 200-year-old cottage on a remote stretch of Ireland’s Atlantic coast has been given a Michelin star. At the time of awarding, Michelin called it “surely the most rural” of its newest winners.

    New design revealed for Airbus hydrogen plane
    renzo

    In travel news this week: Bhutan’s spectacular new airport, the world’s first 3D-printed train station has been built in Japan, plus new designs for Airbus’ zero-emission aircraft and France’s next-generation high-speed trains.

    Grand designs
    European aerospace giant Airbus has revealed a new design for its upcoming fully electric, hydrogen-powered ZEROe aircraft. powered by hydrogen fuel cells.

    The single-aisle plane now has four engines, rather than six, each powered by their own fuel cell stack.

    The reworked design comes after the news that the ZEROe will be in our skies later than Airbus hoped.

    The plan was to launch a zero-emission aircraft by 2035, but now the next-generation single-aisle aircraft is slated to enter service in the second half of the 2030s.

    Over in Asia, the Himalayan country of Bhutan is building a gloriously Zen-like new airport befitting a nation with its very own happiness index.

    Gelephu International is designed to serve a brand new “mindfulness city,” planned for southern Bhutan, near its border with India.

    In rail travel, Japan has just built the world’s first 3D-printed train station, which took just two and a half hours to construct, according to The Japan Times. That’s even shorter than the whizzy six hours it was projected to take.

    France’s high-speed TGV rail service has revealed its next generation of trains, which will be capable of reaching speeds of up to 320 kilometers an hour (nearly 200 mph).

    The stylish interiors have been causing a stir online, as has the double-decker dining car.

    Finally, work is underway in London on turning a mile-long series of secret World War II tunnels under a tube station into a major new tourist attraction. CNN took a look inside.

    Water and life
    stargate finance
    Lightning is a dramatic display of electrical power, but it is also sporadic and unpredictable. Even on a volatile Earth billions of years ago, lightning may have been too infrequent to produce amino acids in quantities sufficient for life — a fact that has cast doubt on such theories in the past, Zare said.

    Water spray, however, would have been more common than lightning. A more likely scenario is that mist-generated microlightning constantly zapped amino acids into existence from pools and puddles, where the molecules could accumulate and form more complex molecules, eventually leading to the evolution of life.

    “Microdischarges between obviously charged water microdroplets make all the organic molecules observed previously in the Miller-Urey experiment,” Zare said. “We propose that this is a new mechanism for the prebiotic synthesis of molecules that constitute the building blocks of life.”

    However, even with the new findings about microlightning, questions remain about life’s origins, he added. While some scientists support the notion of electrically charged beginnings for life’s earliest building blocks, an alternative abiogenesis hypothesis proposes that Earth’s first amino acids were cooked up around hydrothermal vents on the seafloor, produced by a combination of seawater, hydrogen-rich fluids and extreme pressure.

    Researchers identified salt minerals in the Bennu samples that were deposited as a result of brine evaporation from the asteroid’s parent body. In particular, they found a number of sodium salts, such as the needles of hydrated sodium carbonate highlighted in purple in this false-colored image – salts that could easily have been compromised if the samples had been exposed to water in Earth’s atmosphere.

    Related article
    Yet another hypothesis suggests that organic molecules didn’t originate on Earth at all. Rather, they formed in space and were carried here by comets or fragments of asteroids, a process known as panspermia.

    “We still don’t know the answer to this question,” Zare said. “But I think we’re closer to understanding something more about what could have happened.”

    Though the details of life’s origins on Earth may never be fully explained, “this study provides another avenue for the formation of molecules crucial to the origin of life,” Williams said. “Water is a ubiquitous aspect of our world, giving rise to the moniker ‘Blue Marble’ to describe the Earth from space. Perhaps the falling of water, the most crucial element that sustains us, also played a greater role in the origin of life on Earth than we previously recognized.”
