和女兒雲南探訪
記得在3月的時候,我帶我的女兒第一次參加雲南的探訪。我是想帶女兒多看,知道自己的幸福, 還有感恩自己的富裕。我預備了最壞打算是女兒會在旅途發脾氣 ,因為這是她在家的拿手好戲。估不到,她整個旅程非常合作,還能跟陌生的成人交往,樂在其中。她還幫醫生量血壓,很有耐性的看醫生如何幫人。在她的文章裡,她還寫了要長大後要像醫療關懷的醫生一樣幫人,很感動!
這旅程以後,我跟她對的關係改變了。可能是我對她的想法改變了,原來我的女兒是很乖的。當我選擇改變自己的想法,事情就開始改變。現在,我的女兒是最乖的女兒,是父賜給我的寶貝 ; )
11月四川探訪
7月的時候寫下我的年曆,計畫在11月的時候參加11月四川探訪。當11月份來了,心情很是忐忑,因為還是想儲錢跟家人12月到韓國旅行,內心爭扎中!
最後,還是去了四川,因為我要實行我寫下的承諾。如果5000元的信心也沒有,如何能作更大的事情呢?我知道主給我的計畫是最好的計畫!我要完成我的承諾!
很高興我做了這決定,因為我得到很多。我認識很多很有行動力的弟兄姐妹。我知道這是他們從主得力的成果。他們的榮光一定在平時的生活裡也彰顯出來 - 是成功的人的特質。是為神向人宣告基督徒的特質!在我計算我付出多少的時候,主卻給我更多,而且價值不是金錢可以衡量。是生命力,是堅持,是仁愛,是溫柔。
在3月及11月的過程中我的領受很不同,但同樣很奇妙。感謝主給我機會學習,學習基督徒的本份及樣式。讓我感到主的真實還有愛,讓我知道在不同的日子裡,也記念基督在每個人身上動工。

sharing from my daughter Olivia Yau
Hi my name is Olivia, I’m an 11 year old girl. My dad always told me that helping others was a good thing, but i never felt the importance and the happiness of helping others, i only felt i was the only important one and all i ever needed to do was to fulfill my own need,that’s what i thought until i went on this trip.
When my dad first heard of the trip he was really excited and asked me to tag along and of course my first is “NO”. Why? Because I didn’t want to experience the dirty roads, toilets, meet new people, go to other people run down houses and other stuff that are not pleasant. But after i thought about it for a while I figured maybe i wasn’t so bad, maybe for once i can actually help people not just sit here and do nothing. There is a quote i thought of “ I don’t trust words i trust action” It’s sort of the same thing to what i’m doing. You shouldn’t just sit here and think “I am gonna be a better person”, you’re not gonna. You have to do something to make others feel that you have changed and became a better person and that you tried to help .
I changed my mind a lot of times first it was a no then it was a yes . At that point my dad started begging me to come with him because he wanted me to become a better person and know how fortunate i am and try more new things. He also wants me to go back to school with a proud smile and be able to loudly say “ I did a good deed!” . So of course i agreed if i didn’t go i wouldn’t be writing this now would I ?
So on that day, the day when we finally went to yun nan, i was dreading thinking “ ugh i want to go back to bed” or “ I don’t want to go”.But i know i have to go, i really did experience a lot during that trip. The happiness the others were feeling even though they don’t have enough money to have a decent meal, the joy they felt worshipping god, even though they don’t have enough money they still felt the importance of building him a proper place where his followers can worship him. I went to a lot of place but all the place where i went to, they all had 1 thing that is similar, every place that we went to, the people there welcomed us with big hugs and joyful smiles, they offered us a lot , even though they had so little. They didn’t care about how little they have, all they wanted to do was to make us feel welcomed and loved.
Ever since i was little i wanted to become a doctor so that i can save lives and see other people's smiles when they see their friends or family safe and sound. There were 3 doctors on this trip, even though they weren't pay to do it, they still helped the people. They did blood tests on them , i learnt a lot from that experience , and that experience gave me an urge to not just dream about being a doctor but actually becoming one but not those kinds of doctor who just stay at the hospital and not feel passionate about their job. I wanted to become a doctor who would travel to different places and help the ones who don’t have enough money .
I’m really happy that i’ve decided to join this trip, because this trip gave me the joy and pride to say that i’ve actually try to help people but now just sitting down here and thinking i need to help , i’ve actually raised money to help them and also by joining this trip i made a lot of new friends.
But the most important thing i learned on this trip is not just having the joy to say i’ve helped them .The most important thing is that even though all i did was give them a little money, they’re truly thankful and they give you the most precious thing on earth, just a simple happy smile.
