Saved from Taking the Wrong Supplement and the “Expired” Cakes

By Yen Yen

Nov 2023, a few days ago, my worker said that our neighbor gave him the appetite supplement.

Though I felt this was strange as he didn’t have eating problem and the neighbor, which was known as a stingy person, never gave him anything for all this time, but I didn’t think too much and just forgot it.

I believe, this morning ABBA JESUS made me suddenly remember about it and moved me to do some web-research. My conclusion is the supplement should not be taken without consulting the doctor.

THANKS A LOT, ABBA JESUS! My worker has not taken it yet. YOU have saved him from harmful side-effects due to taking the wrong supplement.

The similar case happened to us years ago. Mom’s friend gave us quite a lot of cakes and dad had eaten a few of them before mom had time to thank her by phone, whereas I didn’t like to eat them and mom decided to call her first before eating them.

Mom’s friend said, “其实那些糕没人要吃了，要丢又可惜。看到你孩子经过我们门口时，就想到把那些糕送给你们吃。(Actually, no one wanted to eat those cakes anymore, and it would be a pity to throw them away. When I saw your child passing by our doorway, I thought of giving them to you all.)”

THANKS A LOT, ABBA JESUS to protect us and dad didn’t get poisoned from eating them.

Saved From Late School Entry

By Yen Yen

When I was around 4 years of age, mom wanted to send me to the upper class of kindergarten school of her choice which was not far from our house. (Kindergarten has two levels for two years here. The lower class begins at age four and the upper class begins at age five).

Mom didn’t want to send me to the lower class of kindergarten as she thought it would be waste of time and money. The upper class subjects were only singing, playing, physical exercises, learning to read and write the alphabet.

When the new student registrations were opened, she went to register me there. But, the registration committee didn’t allow her to register me as I was not 5 years of age yet. Then, she went home with disappointed and annoyance. 

After dad was back from work, she told what was going on and he said, “Let me do it”. The next day, he went to the school and bumped his old friend as it turned out, he was the Head of the New Student Registration Committee.

Then, dad told him about my rejected registration and his old friend said, “如果你太太说她是。。。太太，我就让你孩子进我们学校 (if your wife said that she is ... (dad’s name)'s wife, then I will let your child enter our school”. THANKS A LOT, ABBA JESUS! I was directly accepted.

Personally, I think school entry should be based on students’ ability, not age as ABBA JESUS created us as a unique person with difference intelligence, ability, and talent. Let alone, I was only several months less than the requirement age.

During my school time (kindergarten – university), many classmates/contemporary students were younger than me, not just a few months apart but also almost a year apart and the youngest friend was a lazy but genius student.

For me, when I had problems in my study, I just prayed to ABBA JESUS and HE always helped me (Saved from the Failed Preparation Phase, Semester/National Exams, and Thesis).
