兩個國度
讀經: 馬太福音22章15-22節
金句: 「凱撒的物當歸給凱撒;上帝的物當歸給上帝。」(馬太福音22章21節)
全年讀經: G耶利米書24-26章;提多書2章

報章《今日美國》登載了韓理克的一篇報導,他在文中寫道:「一般而言,年輕人缺乏老一輩對政治的熱忱。他們將投票視為一種老套而沒有理性的行為。」這篇文章還引用一個大學畢業生的話說:「我對這些就是沒興趣,我也不想知道為什麼會這樣。」這使我想到,基督徒對於公民義務是不是有時也持有同樣的心態。
耶穌在馬太福音22章所講的話,有助於基督徒認真思想我們在世上的公民義務。猶太人當時要向羅馬政府納稅,他們心裡痛恨這件事,因為這些錢直接落入凱撒的國庫,而其中又有一部分被拿去建造異教廟宇,維護羅馬貴族的墮落生活。他們甚至質疑自己對凱撒是否還該盡公民義務。但耶穌提醒這些人,他們具有「雙重國籍」的身分。他們所生活的世界有兩個國度,一個是凱撒的國(屬地的權柄),另一個是上帝的國(屬靈的權柄)。基督徒對兩個國度都有責任,但對上帝及他國度的責任更大(使徒行傳5章28-29節)。
身為基督徒,我們受命要與當權者合作,但我們蒙召的最大責任是順服並委身於主。MW
雙重國籍我們有,當盡責任各不同;你我都當盡全心,遵主旨意榮他名。Hess
政府行使政權,上帝則執掌最高權柄。

Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s. —Matthew 22:21
-->About this cover

In a report in USA Today, Rick Hampson wrote: “The young generally don’t have the old-time political religion. They look at voting and see a quaint, irrational act.” One graduate was quoted as saying, “I don’t care enough to care about why I don’t care.” I wonder if this is how we as Jesus-followers sometimes view our civic responsibility!
The insights of Jesus in Matthew 22 helped His followers think clearly about their civic duty in the world. The Jews were required to pay taxes to the Roman government. They hated this taxation because the money went directly into Caesar’s treasury, where some of it supported the pagan temples and decadent lifestyle of the Roman aristocracy. They may have questioned whether they even had a civic responsibility to Caesar. Jesus reminded them, however, that they had dual citizenship. They lived in a world with two kingdoms—Caesar’s kingdom (human authority) and God’s kingdom (spiritual authority). They had responsibilities to both, but their greater responsibility was to God and His kingdom (Acts 5:28-29).
As followers of Christ, we are commanded to cooperate with our rulers, but we are called to give God our ultimate obedience and commitment. —Marvin WilliamsMarvin Williams-->
We live today as citizens of two worlds,And this demands a duty to fulfill;But greater far should be our heart’s desireTo honor Christ and always do His will. —Hess

英研製人造神經 修復受損器官
【新華網】英國曼徹斯特大學科學家最近成功將取自成年動物脂肪組織的幹細胞誘導分化成神經細胞,並計劃利用這一技術研製人造神經,用於修復受損肢體和器官。
曼徹斯特大學說,這一研究由該大學「英國生物組織再生中心」的一個研究小組完成。
研究人員下一步計劃從成年志願者的脂肪組織中提取幹細胞,對人體幹細胞和動物幹細胞進行比較和實驗,然後用可生物降解的聚合物製造「外套」來移植幹細胞。這種聚合物「外套」可被卷成管狀,插入斷裂神經的兩個斷口之間,這樣由幹細胞分化而成的神經纖維可以通過這根管從一端延伸到另一端,最後使斷裂的神經連接起來。
負責這項研究的保羅.金厄姆說,這種技術能用於肢體或器官受外傷損害的病人和接受器官移植的病人身上。研究人員希望這種技術在今後四五年內便可加以應用。

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月31日
寧靜之路
讀經: 馬可福音6章30-46節
金句: 「你們來,同我暗暗地到曠野地方去歇一歇。」(馬可福音6章31節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書22-23章;提多書1章

在北卡羅萊納的艾斯維城西50哩處,我開車下了高速公路,剩下的行程改行在景色優美的藍脊公園大道上。那是一個十月底的午後,我緩速前行,多次停下來,盡情享受山野風光和明亮秋色。當然,這讓我無法盡快地到達目的地,但對我心靈上的休息和更新極為有效。
這次經歷使我自問:「我有經常和耶穌一起在安靜的路上同行嗎?我有沒有暫時離開忙碌的生活,拋開職責和掛慮,每天花一點時間注目在他身上呢?」
在耶穌的門徒完成所交代的工作後,耶穌對他們說:「你們來,同我暗暗地到曠野地方去歇一歇」(馬可福音6章31節)。他們並非是放長假,只是在擁擠的群眾到來之前,乘船做一次短航。門徒目睹了主耶穌對人的憐憫,就與他同工,滿足眾人的需要(33-43節)。漫長的一天結束後,耶穌就離開眾人,在天父面前禱告,重新得力。(46節)
不論生活是忙亂還是平靜,主耶穌永遠與我們同在。若我們每天騰出一些時間,在寧靜路上與他同行,那將是何等的寶貴。DCM
有一安息恬靜之處,靠近神的懷中;罪惡不能侵擾之處,靠近神的懷中。McAfee
與主親近的時刻最美。

The Quiet Road

Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while. —Mark 6:31
-->About this cover

Fifty miles west of Asheville, North Carolina, I turned off the busy highway and drove the remaining distance to the city on the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. On that late October afternoon I drove slowly, stopping often to savor the mountain vistas and the last of the brilliant autumn leaves. The journey was not efficient in terms of getting to my destination quickly, but it was effective in restoring my soul.
The experience caused me to ask, "How often do I travel the quiet road with Jesus? Do I exit the fast lane of my responsibilities and concerns to focus my attention on Him for a time each day?"
After Jesus’ disciples completed a demanding period of ministry, He said to them, "Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while" (Mark 6:31). Instead of a long vacation, they had only a short boat ride together before being thronged by the crowd. The disciples witnessed the compassion of the Lord and participated with Him in meeting the needs of the multitudes (vv.33-43). When the long day finally ended, Jesus sought renewal in prayer with His heavenly Father (v.46).
Jesus our Lord is always with us whether life is hectic or calm, but there is great value in taking time each day to walk the quiet road with Him. —David C. McCaslandDavid C. McCasland-->
There is a place of quiet rest,Near to the heart of God;A place where sin cannot molest,Near to the heart of God. —McAfee
Time spent with the Lord is always time well spent.

一氧化碳 可助器官移植
【新華網】一氧化碳是一般意義上的毒氣,但微量使用卻對器官移植有好處。英國研究人員最近發明瞭一種新方法,可有效使用一氧化碳來幫助移植器官成活,同時避免一氧化碳中毒風險。
據英國廣播公司日前報導,英國雪菲爾德大學的研究人員發明瞭利用載體分子將小劑量一氧化碳定點釋放的方法。被稱為「一氧化碳釋放分子」的載體可透過口服或注射進入患者體內,這種分子是水溶性的,能很快進入血流,容易被吸收。
領導該研究的布賴恩‧曼說,新方法有兩個好處,一方面可以方便地控制病人攝入一氧化碳的劑量,另一方面可以準確定點注射,或調整分子設計使它指向特定部位,對身體其他部位不產生影響。實驗室試驗顯示這種方法前景良好,研究人員希望在2010年前開始人體試驗。
吸入過多一氧化碳會導致人中毒死亡,但在器官移植手術中,微量使用一氧化碳有助於擴張血管,減少炎症,從而提高移植器官的成活率。

Carbon monoxide can help organ transplant
[-] Is the general sense that carbon monoxide gas, but the use of it has micro-organ transplant benefit. British researchers recently invented a new method, carbon monoxide can be used effectively to help organ transplant survival, while avoiding the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. According to the British Broadcasting Corporation recently reported that the British Ice Rumsfeld University researchers invented the use of vector elements to the release of small doses of carbon monoxide fixed-point method. Known as the "molecule of carbon monoxide released," the carrier can be oral or injected into the patients body, such elements are water-soluble and can enter the blood quickly, easily absorbed.
Leading the study Brian Cayman said that the new method has two advantages, while patients can easily control the dose of carbon monoxide intake, can be accurately positioned injection on the other hand, or adjust it at the molecular design specific location, the other parts of the body do not have an impact. Laboratory tests show that this method promising, the researchers hope that in 2010 before beginning human trials.
Inhalation will lead to excessive carbon monoxide poisoning people died, but in organ transplant surgery, micro vascular expansion of the use of carbon monoxide helps to reduce inflammation, thereby improving the survival rate of organ transplantation.

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月30日
一路順風
讀經: 提摩太後書4章1-8節
金句: 「我現在被澆奠,我離世的時候到了。」(提摩太後書4章6節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書20-21章;提摩太後書4章

保羅在提摩太後書4章6節講到離世含有重要含意。它代表「鬆開」和「解開」的意思。在腓立比書1章23節,他也用到這個字,他嘆息說:「我正在兩難之間,情願離世與基督同在,因為這是好得無比的。」
保羅這裡的「離世」,原本是船隻的專門用語──「啟程」,代表「駛離」──拉起錨,解開與世界聯繫的繩子,逐漸駛離岸邊。這真是針對死亡極佳的譬喻。
對相信基督的信徒而言,死亡並非結束而是開始。它代表完成目的後,將舊世界拋諸腦後,前往更佳美之地。那是歡喜和激動人心的時刻,值得呼喊「一路順風」。
然而,所有旅程都帶有不確定性,特別是對那些你從未走過的航線。當我們航行時,我們不會像面對死亡那樣緊張,誰曉得前面會有什麼危險呢?
然而,死亡之旅並非沒有標明。已經有人先我們而行,而且他已經返回,要帶領我們安然航行。雖然我們行經死蔭的幽谷,上帝卻與我們同在(詩篇23篇4節)。他的手放在舵上,帶領我們回到他已為我們預備好的天家(約翰福音14章1-3節)。DHR

The time of my departure is at hand. —2 Timothy 4:6
-->About this cover

Paul’s word departure in 2 Timothy 4:6 is freighted with significance. It means "loosing" or "unmooring." It’s a word he uses again when he sighs, "I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ" (Phil. 1:23).
Departure is a nautical term that suggests "shipping out"—weighing anchor, slipping the lines that tether us to this world and getting underway. It’s a marvelous metaphor for dying.
For believers in Christ, death is not an end but a beginning. It means leaving this old world behind and getting to a better place, completing the purpose for which we were made. It’s a time for joy and excitement and a hearty "Bon Voyage!"
All voyages, however, are fraught with uncertainty, especially those that pass through waters never sailed before. We don’t fear death so much as we do the passage. Who knows what dangers lie ahead?
But the journey is not uncharted. One has taken it before us, and He has returned to bring us safely through. Although we pass through the valley of the shadow of death, God is with us all the way (Ps. 23:4). His hands are on the helm as He guides us to the heavenly haven He has prepared for us (John 14:1-3). —David H. RoperDavid H. Roper-->

【明報專訊】所謂慢性乙型肝炎,是指感染乙型肝炎病毒者,若免疫系統半年內無法消除病毒,便界定為慢性乙肝帶菌者,患者有25至40%機率演變為肝硬化或肝癌。慢性乙肝可能毫無病徵,香港約有8%人口,即56萬名慢性乙型肝炎帶原者,其中約有25%因肝硬化及肝癌病逝。
在亞洲區,母嬰傳染是最常見的乙肝感染途徑,其他途徑為血液或體液接觸,如不安全性行為、注射或輸血,穿耳孔及紋身等。由於乙肝病毒在人體外可生存7天以上,家庭成員共用牙刷或剃鬚刀亦可傳播。
病毒性乙型肝炎感染可透過血液測試發現,若病人成為終生帶菌者,須定期接受檢查以監察病情,減低患肝硬化或肝癌的風險。此外,接種疫苗可預防慢性乙肝,成效達95%。

一顆鉚釘
讀經: 雅各書3章13-18節
金句: 「惟獨從上頭來的智慧,先是清潔,後是和平,溫良柔順,……沒有偏見,沒有假冒。」(雅各書3章17節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書18-19章;提摩太後書3章

科學家研究後確認,讓號稱「永不沉沒」的「鐵達尼號」快速沉沒的原因是鉚釘有瑕疵。研究者最近從殘骸中發現,「鐵達尼號」的鉚釘參雜了鍛鐵,而非純鋼鑄成,因此讓船殼像拉鍊般裂開。「鐵達尼號」證明了,把錢花在奢華設備和廣告宣傳上,卻忽略了「基本」的零件,是愚蠢之舉。
從某種程度說,教會就像船隻,會友就像鉚釘。雖然鉚釘看似不起眼,但要讓船隻組合嚴緊並能浮在水面上,鉚釘卻至關重要。
在這世代,越來越多的人覺得自己不受重視,甚至基督徒也有同感。也有人不惜傷害他人來使自己感到受重視。雅各說:「在何處有嫉妒紛爭,就在何處有擾亂和各樣的壞事」(3章16節)。人們因追求美貌、財富和權力等世俗的私慾而敗壞,也讓教會受損傷。但是清潔的、沒有玷污的虔誠(1章27節)能使教會得以保全。
身為上帝教會的一員,我們必須要成為無瑕疵的「鉚釘」。只要我們清潔(雅各書3章17節)、剛強(以弗所書6章10節)、堅定(哥林多前書15章58節),我們就能被主使用,在危急時刻仍能讓船身安穩在水面上。JAL

-->About this cover

Scientists have determined that faulty rivets may have caused the rapid sinking of the "unsinkable" HMS Titanic. According to researchers who recently examined parts recovered from the wreck, impure rivets made of wrought iron rather than steel caused the ship’s hull to open like a zipper. The Titanic proves the foolishness of spending resources on fancy equipment and public promotion while neglecting the "ordinary" parts.
In a sense, churches are like ships, and many of their people are like rivets. Although rivets seem insignificant, they are essential for holding the ship together and keeping it afloat.
Feelings of insignificance are rampant these days, even among Christians, and some do hurtful things to make themselves feel important. James says, "Where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there" (3:16). People corrupted by worldly desires for beauty, wealth, and power can bring down great churches, but people who are pure and undefiled (1:27) hold churches together.
As members of God’s church, we need to be "rivets" without defect. When we are pure (James 3:17), strong (Eph. 6:10), and steadfast (1 Cor. 15:58), we will be used by the Lord to keep His ship afloat in times of crisis. —Julie Ackerman LinkJulie Ackerman Link-->

美酒紅肉易致癌(2007年10月29日)紅肉每天最多食80克
【明報專訊】世界癌症基金報告 指增腸癌乳癌風險
有美食不可無美酒、紅酒要配紅肉,以上全是基本飲食「知識」。然而,世界癌症研究基金(World Cancer Research Fund)將於本周發表最新研究報告,指即使進食小量紅肉、飲用酒精,也會增加患癌風險。有專家更形容,紅肉的危害和吸煙一樣,會增加患腸癌風險;酒精則會增患乳癌及其他癌症的風險。專家將會提出十大「避癌」建議 ,例如每天應只吃80克(2.8安士)紅肉,即約三分一塊牛扒,以保健康。
研究「安全飲食量」 勢惹業界反對
21名專家來自世界各地,用5年時間完成關於節食、營養及公共健康的報告,重新討論紅肉如牛、羊肉和酒精飲品與患癌的關係,並會研究「安全食或飲量」,相信會引來畜牧業及酒精業的強烈反響。
其中一名負責研究的專家指出,酒精、紅肉及過重皆會增加患癌風險,「現時已有很多證據證明進食紅肉會致癌,大量研究亦已證明飲酒會增加患乳癌及其他癌症的風險」。同樣有參與研究的公開大學教授David Shuker指出,紅肉會增加患腸癌的風險,「紅肉像吸煙般,增加患癌風險」。
牛排只宜三分一塊 酒只宜一兩杯
但進食多少紅肉、飲多少酒才會危害健康?研究報告指出,每天進食100克紅肉也增加患癌風險,世界癌症研究基金將於本周確認每天應只吃80克紅肉,即2.8安士,約三分一塊牛扒,以求健康。而食品標準局(The Food Standards Agency)則沒有指明「安全食量」,但發言人建議市民只宜適量進食肉類,並選擇吃較瘦的肉。
報告又建議,男士每天不應喝多於兩杯酒精,女士每天則不要多於一杯。另外,報告亦會就體型、運動量、蔬果、肉類、酒精、準備及處理食物等提出10項建議,教導市民如何避免患上癌症。

我不想做
讀經: 馬太福音21章28-32節
金句: 「他回答說:『我不去』,以後自己懊悔,就去了。」(馬太福音21章29節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書15-17章;提摩太後書2章

你曾否面對你最不想去做的事?除草、洗碗、清理房子,或是在過完忙碌的一週後,還要預備主日學的課程,這些事都會讓我們舉步維艱。
碰到這種情況時,我和妻子就會拿出我們的座右銘,互相打氣:「我不想做!但無論如何我還是得去做。」明白我們缺乏動力是一回事,但若選擇負起責任,就能幫我們完成工作。
我們從耶穌的比喻可以看出,上帝十分看重信心和順服。耶穌說,父親讓兩個兒子到葡萄園裏去做工。第一個說不,但是「以後自己懊悔,就去了」(馬太福音21章29節)。第二個說去,他卻沒有去。主接著就問聽眾:「這兩個兒子,是哪一個遵行父命呢?」(31節)答案很明顯,就是做工的那一位。
主耶穌的比喻,強調了一個重要的屬靈原則。上帝看重我們的信心和順服,而不僅是我們良好的意願。下一次想逃避責任時,你就說「我不想做!」然後求上帝施恩,無論如何都得去做。HDF
我們留心主道,服從其中誡命;賜給我們力量,不任己意而行。Sper
順服就是信心在行動。

I Don’t Feel Like It
READ: Matthew 21:28-32
He answered and said, “I will not,” but afterward he regretted it and went. —Matthew 21:29
-->About this cover

Have you ever faced an unwanted chore and felt as if it were the last thing on earth you wanted to do? Mowing the lawn, doing the wash, cleaning the house, or even preparing a Sunday school lesson after an exhausting week can make us feel like procrastinating.
When this happens, my wife and I have a motto we repeat to each other: "I don’t feel like it—but I’m going to do it anyway." There is something about recognizing our lack of motivation and then choosing to be responsible that helps us follow through.
God’s value on faith and obedience can be seen in the parables of Jesus. Christ spoke about two sons who were asked to work in the vineyard. The first said no, but "afterward he regretted it and went" (Matt. 21:29). The second said yes but did not follow through. Then the Lord asked His listeners, "Which of the two did the will of his father?" (v.31). The obvious answer is the one who finished the task.
Our Lord’s illustration underscores a key spiritual principle. God is interested in our faith and obedience—not just our good intentions. Next time you are tempted to shirk your duties, why not say, "I don’t feel like it," and then ask God for the grace to do it anyway. —Dennis FisherDennis Fisher-->
O help us, Lord, to heed Your Word,Its precepts to obey;And give us strength to quench the urgeTo do things our own way. —Sper

骨鬆症 補鈣並非萬靈丹 走向年輕化 經常喝咖啡、抽菸、喝酒都是誘發因素

 測量有無骨質疏鬆,可利用移動式的超音波骨質分析儀,測量跟骨的密度作為參考。【中新網】原本被看作是老年人「專利」的骨質疏鬆症如今正在突襲年輕人,尤其多見於白領一族。抽菸喝酒、缺乏運動、不曬太陽,這些在白領生活中早就習以為常的生活狀態,都成了影響骨骼健康的「敲門磚」。
據上海青年報報導,預防骨質疏鬆要從年輕時就開始補鈣,但要提醒一句,並不是只要補鈣就「萬事大吉」。
不當減肥,惹來骨質疏鬆
「真倒楣,又骨折了。」一年裡已經是第二次骨折的張女士躺在病床上,抱怨得有些宿命。而醫生給出的答案,揭示了她所謂倒楣的真正原因:骨質疏鬆。
「我不過30多歲,怎麼就骨質疏鬆了呢?」對於醫生的解釋,張女士心裡犯起了嘀咕。在詢問了其生活狀況後,醫生進一步解開了張女士年紀不大就得了骨質疏鬆的根源所在,「很可能與你的不當減肥有關」。
原來,不少減肥藥有抑制吸收的功能,加上一些女性過度減肥造成體脂含量過低,容易引起內分泌紊亂,雌激素水準減低,骨質疏鬆症於是就找上門來了。另外,減肥者往往以蔬菜、水果代替正常飲食,而粗纖維的過多攝取會造成鈣質吸收障礙,這也是造成骨質疏鬆的原因之一。國外研究還發現,女性在減肥節食一年後,體重下降的同時骨密度也隨之下降。
醫生說,骨質疏鬆症是一種非常隱蔽的疾病,平時幾乎沒有症狀,但患者一旦跌倒,甚至只是碰著、扭著,都容易發生骨折。
有數據顯示,45歲以上骨折患者中75%的骨折與骨質疏鬆症有關。
醫生由此提醒,如果骨折發生的背後暗藏著骨質疏鬆,那麼患者不僅要到骨科治療骨折,傷癒後還應到內分泌科治療骨質疏鬆,否則,以後還會有發生骨折的危險。
骨質疏鬆症還有一個特點,女性的發病率遠高於男性。有統計顯示,女性在一生中丟失的骨量可以佔到全身骨量的30%到50%,而男性一生中只丟失骨量的四分之一。
白領生活,埋下隱患不少
尤其值得一提的是,過去只會發生在中老年人身上的骨質疏鬆症如今正在走向年輕化。「這和不少年輕人一些不良的生活方式有關。」醫生說,經常喝咖啡、抽菸、喝酒都是骨質疏鬆的誘發因素。
醫生一一解釋說,咖啡有利尿作用,而尿量增加就會增加尿鈣排出、糞鈣排出,因此,經常喝咖啡容易引發骨質疏鬆;菸草中的成分會使雌激素減少,容易使女性提早絕經;而過量飲酒會損害肝臟,使維生素D合成減少,影響腸道對維生素D和鈣劑的吸收。「更多的情況是,年輕時的這些不良習慣會給骨質健康埋下很大的隱患,直接導致不少女性人到中年或絕經後出現骨質疏鬆。」
同時,… ,專家特別強調了年輕白領女性普遍存在的、容易引起骨質疏鬆的兩大生活弊端:缺乏運動與缺乏日曬。
出門以車代步,工作時間在電腦前一坐就是幾個小時;到了休息日,為了彌補平時的睡眠不足,也絕無心思去跑步、打球,只想賴在床上或窩在沙發裡,很多白領們可能並不知道,缺乏運動讓他們骨量不足。而對於成天坐鎮辦公室的白領而言,缺乏日曬更是不難想像。「還來不及等到陽光開始燦爛就鑽進了辦公室,而下班時,大概只有曬月光了。」某企業的一位IT主管如是表示。
專家指出,陽光中的紫外線可以促進維生素D的合成,如果長期不曬太陽,則會直接影響骨骼健康。
醫生還表示,現在不少白領都被亞健康所困擾,最典型的表現就是經常感覺渾身乏力。其實,在骨質疏鬆的早期,乏力也是最典型的情況。因此,年輕人如果出現長時間乏力,最好及時診斷。
骨骼健康,從年輕時保養
專家表示,骨質疏鬆症是以骨量的減少、骨的微觀結構退化為特徵的一種全身性骨骼疾病。作為一種退行性疾病,它是伴隨著人體機能的老化而產生的。雖然骨質疏鬆是一種自然的現象,但如果從年輕時就開始積極預防,增加骨量儲備,控制鈣質流失,提高骨量峰值,年老後就能遠離骨質疏鬆。
「眾所週知,鈣和骨骼形成密切相關,因此,年輕時有效補鈣就可減緩今後骨質衰老的程度。」專家表示,人在20到40歲之間,骨代謝特別旺盛,攝入的鈣很快吸收進入骨骼中沉澱,骨骼生成迅速,骨鈣含量高,骨骼最為強壯。而一旦過了40歲,骨質的流失速度就超過形成速度,骨量下降,骨質變脆,體內含鈣量也逐年減少。
「趁年輕增加骨骼中鈣的儲備,可以讓自己避免進入中年後過早地被骨質疏鬆所糾纏。」成年人每天鈣攝入量最好在800毫克左右。
值得注意的是,正如缺鈣並不是骨質疏鬆的唯一原因,維生素D合成不足、缺少運動、雌激素水準下降等諸多因素都有可能導致這種骨骼疾病,因而,預防骨質疏鬆也不是僅僅依靠補鈣就能搞掂的。
專家表示,鈣在體內吸收需要有維生素D的參與,有些人非常注意飲食中鈣的攝取或是服用鈣劑,到頭來,還是發現缺鈣,原因就是少了維生素D。因此,建議年輕人每天至少保證半小時的日曬,以此「激活」體內的維生素D,幫助鈣的吸收。同時,還要堅持做有氧運動,這不僅可以促進維生素D的合成,還能通過肌肉的收縮和舒張對骨骼產生刺激作用,從而增強骨骼的品質和密度。
如果是由於雌激素下降造成的骨質疏鬆,則要在醫生的指導下採用激素替代療法。

Osteoporosis become earlier, only take calcium is not panacea To younger regular cup of coffee, smoking and drinking are predisposing factor
There osteoporosis measurement, the use of mobile ultrasound bone analyzer, measurement of the density of the calcaneus as a reference. 【- - Originally seen as the elderly "patent" of osteoporosis, is now undergoing attack young people, in particular was particularly prevalent in the white-collar group. Smoking drinking, lack of exercise, not sunbathing, these white-collar workers have grown accustomed to living life in the state, have become impact on bone health "stepping stone." According to the Shanghai Youth Daily reported that the prevention of osteoporosis from a young age started calcium, but to remind that, as long as calcium supplementation is not on the "everything is all right now."
Improper diet, attracted osteoporosis
"I倒楣, the fracture." The year is already the second fracture very fact lying on the bed, complained in some fate. The doctor gives the answer, she revealed the real reason for the so-called倒楣: osteoporosis.
"I am over 30 years of age, however, how to osteoporosis?" The doctor explained that the very fact of the muttering from the heart guilty. In inquired about their living conditions, the doctor further and remove the very fact of age must not the root causes of osteoporosis, "and you are likely related to improper diet."
Originally, many slimming products have inhibited the absorption functions, along with some women excessive weight loss caused low body fat content, making it easy for endocrine disorder, reduce estrogen levels, osteoporosis was found on the door came. In addition, weight loss is often to vegetables, fruits instead of the normal diet, while the crude fiber intake will cause too much calcium absorption barriers, it is also one of the reasons for osteoporosis. Foreign study also found that women in the year after slimming diet, weight loss of bone density also will be dropped.
Doctors said that osteoporosis is a very hidden disease, usually almost no symptoms, but patients once fall, or even just碰着,扭着are prone to fracture.
Data show that patients over the age of 45 fractures in 75% of the fracture and osteoporosis-related.
This reminded doctors, if hidden behind the fractures occurred in osteoporosis, so patients should not only to the treatment of orthopedic fracture, but also to injury after endocrine treatment of osteoporosis, otherwise, would have occurred after the fracture risk.
Osteoporosis also a feature of the incidence of distant women than men. Statistics show that the loss in the life of women in the whole body bone mass can be accounted for 30% of bone mass to 50%, while men lost his life only a quarter of bone mass.
White-collar life, burying many hidden dangers
What is worth mentioning is that in the past only to the elderly on osteoporosis now is moving toward younger. "Many young people and some undesirable lifestyles." Doctors said that regular drinking coffee, smoking and drinking are a predisposing factor of osteoporosis.
Doctors explained that on January 1, a diuretic coffee, and the urine output increase will increase urinary calcium drained from fecal calcium, so often a cup of coffee easily trigger osteoporosis; The ingredients in tobacco will reduce estrogen, and this tends to early postmenopausal women; Excessive alcohol consumption and liver damage, vitamin D synthesis decrease intestinal impact on the vitamin D and calcium absorption. "More of the matter is that when he was young, the bad habits will become much bone a hidden danger to health, directly led many people to middle-aged women after menopause or osteoporosis."
At the same time, ..., experts placed particular emphasis on young white-collar women widespread, making it easy for the two life osteoporosis drawbacks: lack of exercise and lack of sun. Go out to cars, working hours in front of computers sit in a few hours; To the rest day, to make up for peacetime insufficient sleep, but also no thought to running, playing and just want to hang on the sofa bed or Waterloo, many white-collar workers who may not know, lack of exercise less than their bone mass. As for the white-collar成天took office, the lack of sun is not difficult to imagine. "Also there was no time to wait until the beginning of brilliant sunshine on drilling the office, and from work, only about a drying moonlight." An enterprise IT executives, a case that.
Experts pointed out that in the ultraviolet sunlight can promote the synthesis of vitamin D, if not long-term sun will be directly affected bone health.
Doctors also said that many white-collar workers are now plagued by sub-health, the most typical performance is often felt myself weak. In fact, in the early osteoporosis, fatigue is the most typical situation. Thus, young people if there is prolonged weakness, the best timely diagnosis.
Bone health maintenance from the young
Experts say osteoporosis is reduced bone mass, bone degradation of micro-structure characterized by a systemic skeletal disease. As a degenerative disease, which is accompanied by the aging of the human body functions arising. Although osteoporosis is a natural phenomenon, but if our youth began to actively prevent, increase bone mass reserves, the loss of control of calcium and improve bone mass peaks, after the elderly will be able to stay away from osteoporosis.
"As we all know, calcium and bone formation are closely related, so young effective calcium supplement can slow the aging degree of future osteoporosis." Experts say people between 20-40 years of age, bone metabolism particularly strong intake of calcium quickly absorbed into the bones of precipitation, rapid bone formation, osteocalcin content was high, the most strong bones. Once the 40-year-old, the loss of bone formation rate exceeded the speed, decreased bone mass, osteoporosis变脆, calcium in the body is reduced year by year.
"趁年轻increase in bone calcium reserves that allow themselves to avoid entering the middle-aged prematurely after being entangled by osteoporosis." Adults daily calcium intake of 800 mg in the best around.
It is worth noting that, as calcium deficiency is not the only reason for osteoporosis, vitamin D synthesis shortage, lack of exercise, estrogen levels decline, and many other factors can cause the bone disease, thus, prevention of osteoporosis is not just rely on the Taiwan issue calcium supplementation can.
Experts said that the absorption of calcium in the body need to have the participation of vitamin D, some people paid great attention to the calcium in the diet or taking calcium intake, the end of the day, discovered that calcium deficiency, the reasons for vitamin D is less. It is therefore recommended that young people every day for half an hour at least guarantee the sun, this would "activate" the body of vitamin D, calcium absorption help. At the same time, we must do aerobic exercise, it can not only promote the synthesis of vitamin D, but also through muscle contraction and relaxation would provide a stimulus for bone, thereby enhancing the quality and bone density.
If it is due to the decrease of estrogen osteoporosis, should be supervised by medical practitioners using hormone replacement therapy.

推人一把
讀經: 使徒行傳11章19-26節
金句: 「他到了那裏,看見上帝所賜的恩就歡喜,勸勉眾人,立定心志,恆久靠主。」(使徒行傳11章23節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書12-14章;提摩太後書1章

琴恩十幾歲時,常經過公園,看見媽媽們坐在長椅上聊天,而她們的孩子則坐在鞦韆上,等著有人推他們一把。琴恩說:「那時,我就會推他們一把。」她繼續說:「我推了一下,你知道之後會怎麼樣嗎?孩子很快就會晃動,自己盪起鞦韆來。這就是我人生的角色──在那裡推人一把。」
在生活中給人鼓勵,這是值得做的事。使徒行傳講到在早期教會,一位名叫約瑟的敬虔人,就有這樣的恩賜。他賣了田地,把價銀奉獻給教會,幫助困苦的人(使徒行傳4章36-37節)。他還隨同保羅旅行傳道,宣講福音(11章22-26節;13章1-4節)。
你或許知道,約瑟又叫「巴拿巴」,是使徒們這樣稱呼他的,意為「勸慰子」。後來,耶路撒冷教會聽見安提阿許多人接受耶穌為救主,就派巴拿巴去,因為他「是個好人,被聖靈充滿,大有信心」(11章24節)。他在那裏「勸勉眾人,立定心志,恆久靠主」(23節)。
我們也能「推人一把」,鼓勵人恆久地跟隨主。AMC
求主助我能成為:那道勸慰人之光,能激勵鼓舞他人,竭盡全力往上攀。Bosch
一點鼓勵火花,能點燃巨大的動力。

Giving Others A Push
READ: Acts 11:19-26
[He] encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord. —Acts 11:23
-->About this cover

When Jean was a teenager, she often walked through a park where she saw mothers sitting on benches and talking. Their toddlers sat on the swings, wanting someone to push them. "I gave them a push," says Jean. "And you know what happens when you push a kid on a swing? Pretty soon he’s pumping, doing it himself. That’s what my role in life is—I’m there to give others a push."
Encouraging others along in life—that’s a worthy purpose. Joses, a godly man mentioned in the book of Acts, had that gift as well. In the days of the early church, he sold some land and gave the money to the church to use for the less fortunate (4:36-37). He also traveled with Paul on missionary journeys and preached the gospel (11:22-26; 13:1-4).
You may know Joses as "Barnabas," which is the name the apostles gave to the "Son of Encouragement." When the Jerusalem church heard that people in Antioch were coming to know Jesus as Savior, they sent Barnabas because "he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith" (11:24). He "encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord" (v.23).
We too can give others a "push" of encouragement in their walk with the Lord. —Anne CetasAnne Cetas-->
Lord, I would be to othersA cheering ray of light,Inspiring them with courageTo climb some new-found height! —Bosch
A little spark of encouragement can ignite great endeavors.

銀髮族飲食 把握7原則!

 老人飲食宜粗不宜細,儘量攝取高纖維的食物。【中新網】銀髮族營養要求和成年人基本相同,但由於生理、心理以及免疫機能上的變化而有其特殊性,因此,飲食上也應順其改變。據市場報報導,營養專家建議的健康飲食原則,可作為安排老年人飲食內容的參考。
饑飽適度
老人由於內分泌的改變和消化頮分泌的相對減少,對饑飽的調控能力較差,往往饑餓時會發生低血糖,過飽時會增加心臟負擔。尤其是淨素食老人,由於進食的全是植物性食物,耐饑性較差,因此應少食多餐,按時進食。
一般每日至少進食三餐,最好再增加兩三次副餐。副餐可選食豆奶、豆腐腦、紅棗蓮心湯、花生糊、核桃酪、芝麻醬、各種鹹甜粥、鬆軟糕點、水果等食品。三次主餐的間隔時間為四至六小時,副餐放在主餐之間和睡前一小時。老年人代謝機能降低,體力活動較少,以每餐八九分飽為度,七成飽為佳。
蛋白質宜精
黃豆的蛋白質含量高、品質好。魚肉的纖維短,含脂肪少,肉質鮮嫩,其蛋白質消化率高達87%至98%。這些都是老年人獲得蛋白質的理想食物。老年人每天需要4份蛋白質,不過肉類的攝取必須限量,所以一部分蛋白質來源應該以豆類及豆製品(如豆腐、豆漿)取代。老年人的飲食裏,正餐要包含一份蛋白質食品(如瘦肉、魚肉、蛋、豆腐等),尤其是不吃肉、甚至也不吃蛋的素食者,更要從豆類及各種堅果類(花生、核桃、杏仁、腰果等)食物中獲取蛋白質。
脂肪宜少
老年人所需的亞油酸等飽和脂肪酸應保持適當的比例,一般以1.25:1為宜,因此應選用植物油和飽和脂肪酸少的瘦肉、魚、禽,不宜多吃肥肉及豬油、牛油。
儘量攝取高纖維的食物
芹菜、香菇、青菜、水果、豆類、薯類等食物,都含有豐富的纖維,每天都應攝取(但不要太油膩)。纖維對油脂有一定的吸附作用,如有纖維在肚子裏,吃進去的油脂就容易被纖維吸住,隨排泄物一起出來。
主食宜粗不宜細
老年人應適當選用粗糧,如小米、玉米、燕麥、紅薯。食用粗糧制的麵包比精白麵包具有更高的營養價值,它含維生素B1較多,因而有助於維持老年人良好的食欲和消化液的正常分泌。同時,所含的食物纖維可刺激腸道使其增加蠕動,可防止因食物纖維不足而使大便乾燥,甚至便秘等。
提高機體代謝能力
老年人應多食用富含鈣、鐵及維生素A、B2、C的食物。富含鈣的食物有蝦皮、芝麻醬和乳製品等。乳類含有營養價值較高的蛋白質和鈣,也是維生素A、B2的良好來源,只是含鐵較少。新鮮綠葉菜及紅、黃色瓜果類(如胡蘿蔔、南瓜、杏子等)含豐富的維生素A、C,也宜多食用。海帶、紫菜中鉀、碘、鐵的含量較多,對防治高血壓、動脈硬化有益。經常食用淡菜、海帶、蘑菇、花生、核桃、芝麻等則可增加必需微量元素鋅、硒、銅等的攝入量,也有助於防治高血壓和動脈硬化。
低油低鹽、少味精醬油
儘量以蒸或煮的方式來烹調,以減少油脂的攝取。如果是在外面用餐,可要一杯白開水將菜稍微過一下。少吃加澱粉後經油炸或炒的東西,因為澱粉容易吸油,像炒麵、炒飯、水煎包、蔥油餅等。味覺不敏感的老年人吃東西常覺得索然無味,食物一端上來就猛加鹽巴、頻沾醬油,很容易吃進過量的鈉,導致高血壓病的發生。

Seniors ethnic restaurants grasp seven principles!
Rough catering to the elderly should not be fine as high fiber intake of food. 【- - Seniors family nutrition requirements and adults basically the same, but because of physical, psychological and immune function and the changes are unique, therefore, restaurants, it should also change its Shun. According to market newspaper reported, nutrition experts suggest the healthy eating principles can be used as food for the elderly as a reference. Hunger eat moderate
The elderly and the change due to endocrine secretion of digestive頮reduced, the control of hunger eat less often when hunger hypoglycemia, cardiac过饱will increase the burden. Net vegetarian especially the elderly, all of which are due to the consumption of plant foods, less tolerance of hunger, it should少食多餐, on time consuming.
General eat at least three meals daily, preferably two or three additional deputy meal. Deputy meal optional fresh soy milk, tofu brain, jujube Neferine soup, peanut paste, Walnut casein,芝麻酱, various Xiantian porridge, soft cakes, fruits and other foodstuffs. Three main meal intervals for 4-6 hours, the Deputy meals on the main menu between one hour and bedtime. Elderly lower metabolic function, less physical activity, the Japan Society for八九分saturation, 70% eat better.
Protein to fine
The high protein content of soybeans, good quality. Fish fibers short, containing less fat, succulent fresh, protein digestibility as high as 87-98%. These are elderly people access to the ideal protein food. Four elderly people daily protein needs, but must limit intake of meat, protein sources should be part of beans and soybean products (such as tofu, soybean milk) to replace. Elderly diet, the main meal should include a protein food (such as lean meat, fish, eggs, tofu, etc.), especially not eat meat, or even吃蛋the vegetarian, and from various beans and nuts (peanuts, walnuts, almonds, cashews, etc.) access to protein in food .
Should less fat
For the elderly, such as unsaturated fatty acids linoleic acid should maintain an appropriate ratio of 1.25:1 suitable to the general, it should use vegetable oil and less saturated fatty acids of lean meat, fish, poultry, it is not appropriate to吃肥肉and lard, butter.
As the food intake of high fiber
Celery, mushrooms, vegetables, fruit, beans, potato and other food, rich in fiber, should be daily intake (but not too greasy). Fiber on the adsorption grease a certain role, if fiber in stomach, eating into the grease on easily fiber吸住, together with the excreta out.
It is not appropriate to small coarse staple
Older persons should be properly selected coarse grains, such as millet, corn, oats, sweet potato. Coarse grain bread consumption of fine white bread than with a higher nutritional value, which contain more vitamin B1, thus contributing to the maintenance of the elderly good appetite and the normal secretion of digestive juice. At the same time, the Food and fiber content can be increased to stimulate the intestinal peristalsis, fiber prevent food shortage due to而使constipated, and even constipation, and so on.
Raising the body metabolism
The elderly should be more calcium-rich food, iron and vitamin A, B2, C food. Calcium-rich food have dried small shrimps,芝麻酱and dairy products. Dairy contains a higher nutritional value of protein and calcium, but also vitamin A, B2 good source of iron is less. Fresh绿叶菜and red, yellow melons category (such as carrots, pumpkins, Xingzi, etc.) with rich vitamin A, C, but also to more consumption. Kelp, Laver in potassium, iodine, iron content more, the prevention and treatment of hypertension, arteriosclerosis useful. Regular consumption mussel, kelp, mushrooms, peanuts, walnuts, sesame, and other essential trace elements can be increased zinc, selenium, copper, etc. intake, and also helps control hypertension and arteriosclerosis.
Low oil low-salt, soy sauce less MSG
Steamed或煮possible way to cooking to reduce fat intake. If it is outside meal, will be what will happen in a cup of boiled water over the vegetables slightly. Eat less fried and starch after speculation or something, because starch easy oil absorption, as mixed, fried rice, Shuijianbao,葱油饼, etc.. Taste not sensitive to the elderly eat often feel索然tasteless, food on a端上来Meng added salt, soy sauce James frequency, it is easy to eat into excess sodium, leading to the occurrence of hypertension.

Oct26,079種食品 儘量少吃! Nine kinds of food to eat less! +仰望上帝Hope In God

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月26日
仰望上帝
讀經: 詩篇42篇
金句: 「我的心哪,你為何憂悶?……應當仰望上帝,因他笑臉幫助我,我還要稱讚他。」(詩篇42篇5節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書9-11章;提摩太前書6章

我眺望著斯里蘭卡的西海岸,簡直難以相信,不久前海嘯曾肆虐過這美麗的海岸。在燦爛的陽光下,海水碧波蕩漾,情侶正在平靜的海邊漫步。人們照常生活作息,好像什麼也沒發生過。這景象有點讓我出乎意料,但我知道這只是表面現象,災難的衝擊仍然存在,不過是隱藏在生還者的內心深處。災難給人留下的創傷,不會那麼輕易地被忘卻。
災難所帶來的創傷,促使詩人痛苦地呼喊:「我晝夜以眼淚當飲食,人不住地對我說:『你的上帝在哪裏呢?』」(詩篇42篇3節)詩人把內心的掙扎深深隱藏。外面的世界依然如故,他的內心世界卻迫切尋求完全的醫治。
我們只有把破碎心靈交託給那位偉大的好牧人,我們心裏才能得著平安,坦然面對生活。「我的心哪,你為何憂悶?為何在我裏面煩躁?應當仰望上帝,因他笑臉幫助我,我還要稱讚他。」(第5節)
要仰望上帝──這是醫治內心創傷的唯一方法。WEC
主是我們真盼望,他的話語是確據;雖然有時會懷疑,信實上帝永同在。D. De Haan
仰望上帝的人決不至於絕望。

Hope In God
ODB RADIO: Listen Now DownloadREAD: Psalm 42
Why are you cast down, O my soul? . . . Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him for the help of His countenance. —Psalm 42:5
-->About this cover

Looking at the western shores of Sri Lanka, I found it hard to imagine that a tsunami had struck just a few months earlier. The sea was calm and beautiful, couples were walking in the bright sunshine, and people were going about their business—all giving the scene an ordinary feeling I wasn’t prepared for. The impact of the disaster was still there, but it had gone underground into the hearts and minds of the survivors. The trauma itself would not be easily forgotten.
It was catastrophic grief that prompted the psalmist to cry out in anguish: "My tears have been my food day and night, while they continually say to me, ‘Where is your God?’" (Ps. 42:3). The struggle of his heart had likewise been turned inward. While the rest of the world went on with business as usual, he carried in his heart the need for deep and complete healing.
Only as we submit our brokenness to the good and great Shepherd of our hearts can we find the peace that allows us to respond to life: "Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him for the help of His countenance" (v.5).
Hope in God—it’s the only solution for the deep traumas of the heart. —Bill CrowderBill Crowder-->
The Christian’s hope is in the Lord,We rest secure in His sure Word;And though we’re tempted to despair,We do not doubt that God is there. —D. De Haan
No one is hopeless whose hope is in God.

Oct25,07激發成長Growth Persuasion+五味不過 預防高血壓Don't take too much Five taste However p

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月25日
激發成長
讀經: 希伯來書12章7-11節
金句: 「凡管教的事,當時不覺得快樂,反覺得愁苦,後來卻為那經練過的人結出平安的果子,就是義。」(希伯來書12章11節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書6-8章;提摩太前書5章

我的叔叔萊斯特住在佛羅里達,因著柚子樹不結果而苦惱。有人告訴他,要用木板重擊樹幹幾下。
這種激勵生長的方式顯然頗不尋常,卻有幾分道理。有位園藝專家說:「有時候,樹木的生長激素似乎停滯了,開不出花來。這時重擊樹幹幾下,會擦傷一點樹皮,如此嚇唬它,便可刺激它開花。」這種辦法也許能刺激生長。
當苦難臨到我們的生活時,我們有時覺得遭到了沉重打擊,陷入絕境。我們感到絕望,進而發出疑問:「為什麼這樣的事會臨到我?」
有一種可能是,上帝使用痛苦的經歷來警戒我們。大衛在詩篇119篇71節寫道:「我受苦是與我有益,為要使我學習你的律例。」希伯來書12章11節說,管教能「結出平安的果子,就是義。」
在你的生活中,上帝是否使用痛苦來慈愛地說服你改變自己?置身苦難固然艱難,但我們若能從中吸取教訓,我們就會有新的長進,越來越像上帝的兒子(腓立比書3章10節)。CHK
我們好害怕修枝,因忘了園丁之智;只有肯修剪越多,才會有纍纍碩果。Anon.
苦難是修枝剪,讓基督徒的生命結出碩果。

Growth Persuasion
ODB RADIO: Listen Now DownloadREAD: Hebrews 12:7-11
No chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but . . . it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it. —Hebrews 12:11
-->About this cover

My Uncle Lester, who lived in Florida, was discouraged by the lack of fruit on his grapefruit tree. Someone told him he needed to whack the trunk of the tree a few times with a board.
Apparently, there is some truth to this unusual method of encouraging growth. One gardening expert says: "At times, the flowering hormone in the tree seems to get stuck and no flowers appear. Carefully persuade the tree to flower by shocking it. Hit the trunk . . . several times, [which will cause] small bruises in the bark." This advice may stimulate growth.
When trouble comes into our lives, we sometimes feel as if we’ve been hit broadside. We feel desperation and then we wonder, Why is this happening to me?
One possibility is that God is using a painful experience to get our attention. In Psalm 119:71, David wrote, "It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes." And Hebrews 12:11 says that chastening "yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness."
Is God using pain in your life to lovingly persuade you to change? The season of trouble may not be easy, but if we let ourselves be trained by it, new growth will result as we become more like His Son (Phil. 3:10). —Cindy Hess KasperCindy Hess Kasper-->
We shrink from the purging and pruning,Forgetting the Gardener knowsThe deeper the cutting and paringThe richer the cluster that grows. —Anon.
Affliction for God’s people can be the pruning knife to prepare us for greater fruitfulness.

五味不過 預防高血壓

 菜肴味道過濃、過鹹、過甜,增加高血壓發病率。【新華網】中醫將食物大致分為五類:酸、苦、甘、辛和鹹。據廣州日報報導,中醫專家指出,預防高血壓,在選擇食物上要注意五味的合理搭配。廣東省中醫藥學會心血管專業委員會副主任委員、省第二中醫院副院長王清海教授說,大量攝入高脂肪食物,菜肴味道過濃、過鹹、過甜及大量飲酒等,都與高血壓發病率不斷提高有密切關系。
王清海說,預防高血壓有飲食口訣,即:「半斤牛奶二兩肉,一斤蔬菜八兩榖。一個雞蛋五克鹽,水果綠茶享清福。不抽香菸少喝酒,樂觀開朗心無憂。每天早上跑跑步,保你腰帶不變粗。」飲食上必須秉持「五味不過」原則:
1、食物不過鹹:限鹽
健康成年人每天鹽的攝入量不宜超過6克,其中包括透過醬油、鹹菜、味精等調味品攝入鹽的量。
2、食物不過甜:限糖
含糖高的食品主要是米、面、糕點等。建議主食要粗細搭配,如玉米、小米、豆類、蕎麥、薯類等。最好不吃或少吃油餅、油條、炸糕、奶油蛋糕、巧克力、奶類雪糕等。
3、食物不過膩:限制脂肪過高的食品
王清海建議,生活中要限制家畜肉類(尤其是肥肉)、動物油脂(如豬油)、奶油糕點、棕櫚油等高脂肪和蛋類制品、蛋黃、動物內臟、魚子及雞皮、鴨皮等高膽固醇食物的攝入。每天不超過250克新鮮牛奶或酸奶。每天肉類控制在75克以內,主要是瘦肉,如豬、牛、羊、雞、鴨等禽類肉食。
4、食物不過辛:限制飲酒
酒也屬於「辛」類食物,對於嗜酒如命的人而言,王清海建議男性每天飲酒精不超過30克,即葡萄酒小於100~150毫升,比如2至3兩;或啤酒小於250~500毫升,比如半斤到1斤;或白酒小于25~50毫升,約0.5至1兩。女性則減半量,孕婦不飲酒。不提倡飲高度烈性酒。
5、食物不過苦:過食可致食欲不振
苦味食物主要是苦麥菜、芹菜、芥菜、苦瓜、咖啡等。苦能清熱,廣州地區氣候炎熱,適當吃些有苦味的蔬菜是有好處的,可以清肝炎、心火。不過,苦味畢竟寒涼,過食則損傷脾胃,導致食欲不振、或腹痛腹瀉等,影響食物的消化吸收。
需要提醒的是,很多老年人一提雞蛋就皺眉,認為其膽固醇含量太高,對身體不好,其實除了膽固醇過高者盡量少吃蛋黃外,其他人吃雞蛋沒多大問題。
還要強調的是,飲食有節,還包括不能過飽。「飲食自倍,腸胃乃傷」,不可不防。如果能再配合適當的運動和保持心情舒暢就更好了。

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月24日
把燈點亮
讀經: 馬太福音5章13-20節
金句: 「你們是世上的光。城造在山上,是不能隱藏的。」(馬太福音5章14節)
全年讀經: 耶利米書3-5章;提摩太前書4章

人們經常問我,對於我擔任慕迪聖經學院院長期間的生活,如今我最懷念的事是什麼?毫無疑問,我最懷念的是那些學生。我愛他們對耶穌的熱忱,以及他們如何向世人展現出這種對耶穌的愛。有些非基督徒的老闆,經常告訴我那些學生美好的工作典範。芝加哥的警察督導曾說過:「慕迪的學生回到校園時,就好像有人把城北的燈點亮了。」
耶穌說「你們是世上的光」(馬太福音5章14節),正是這個意思。耶穌這一句話,展示出強烈的對比。基督徒的美德和這個世界的黑暗之間,應該有顯而易見的差別。
這不是為耶穌舉辦幾場演說,而是讓世人觀看我們。即便人們不願聽有關耶穌的事,你也可以肯定,他們會仔細觀察上帝有沒有改變我們的生命。當耶穌說:「你們的光也當這樣照在人前,叫他們看見你們的好行為」(16節)。他乃是說,在我們宣講福音之前,要先行出來。我們為耶穌所發的光,就在於我們的好行為,這行為能反映出他在我們生命中是何等的真實。
讓我們把燈點亮吧!JS
你蒙神聖呼召,要做世界之光;舉起救主明燈,使人得見這光。Anon.
燃起你生命中的基督之光,能帶領人們走出黑暗。

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. —Matthew 5:14
-->About this cover

People often ask me what I miss most about serving as president of Moody Bible Institute. Without question it’s the students. I love their passion for Jesus and the way they demonstrate it to the world around them. Non-Christian employers often told me of the students’ exemplary work ethic. Chicago’s police super-intendent once said, "When the Moody students return to campus, it’s like somebody turned on the lights on the Near North side."
This is exactly what Jesus had in mind when He said, "You are the light of the world" (Matt. 5:14). It’s a powerful word picture of the impact of contrast. There should be a recognizable difference between the integrity of Christians and the prevailing darkness of our world.
It’s not about making speeches for Jesus; it’s about people observing us. Even though they may not want to hear about Jesus, you can be sure they’re watching to see if He makes a difference in our lives. When Jesus said, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works" (v.16), He was saying that before we can speak up we have to show up. Our capacity to shine for Jesus is measured by our good works, which reveal His compelling reality in our lives.
Let's turn on the lights. —Joe StowellJoe Stowell-->

哪些疾病易誤診! 專家:即便醫生說病況「無大礙」,也要再檢查兩次。

 一些常見病被誤診,主要是在初步診斷結果後,未能考慮其他可能因素。【新華網】誤診,不僅會給患者的病情帶來嚴重後果,同時也讓醫生們「有口難言」。據生命時報引述美國有線新聞網(CNN)報導,2003年,演員約翰‧瑞特因主動脈夾層不幸去世。他的遺孀隨後向法院提起訴訟,稱對瑞特的病症,加州某醫院「至少有過兩個誤診」。近日,美國心臟協會前會長羅伯特‧伯諾博士等專家也表示,患者一定要了解哪些疾病容易被誤診。
1.癌症
哈佛大學針對美國醫療事故的調查顯示,癌症最易被誤診,尤其是乳癌和直腸癌。在美國,6%—16%的乳癌因醫生誤診或漏診耽誤治療。加州研究人員認為,這主要是由於醫生過度依賴乳房X光,而沒有充分利用活檢手段解決診斷中發現的問題。
2.血栓
美國西北醫院心臟病學負責人伯諾稱,80%的深靜脈血栓和肺栓塞患者無臨床表現。有時醫生只是簡單地告訴病人,他們出現的呼吸短促是身體暫時不佳而已。
3.心臟病
伯諾稱,比較嚴重和明顯的心臟病發病時,患者會手捂胸口倒在地上。但其另一類發病症狀卻並不明顯,患者頂多感到胸部有脹感、噁心而已。
4.主動脈夾層
心臟大血管內壁由內膜、中層及外層組成,當管壁壓力高到一定程度時,血管會突然撕裂,血液衝進內膜與中層﹛A這就是主動脈夾層。伯諾表示,此時患者會感到胸部有灼燒感。「但他們通常分辨不出灼燒部位,因此會被醫生張冠李戴。」
5.傳染病
研究人員認為,這是由於病原變異等原因,使得患者臨床表現不典型或複雜多變。同時,近年來,一些新傳染病不斷出現,也給醫生診斷加大了難度。
知道了哪些疾病容易被誤診,又該如何避免呢?首先,要求進行更多檢查。紐約的克蘭一直向她的婦科醫生訴苦,說自己月經失調。但這位醫生卻告訴克蘭,這不過是更年期所致。等到三年後確診為子宮內膜癌時,她的病已到晚期。克蘭提醒大家,一旦出現症狀,三周內必須到醫院檢查。即便醫生說你「並無大礙」,也要再檢查兩次。
其次,詢問醫生」還可能是其他什麼病」。紐約退伍軍人管理局醫學負責人馬克‧格拉本博士說,一些常見病被誤診,主要是醫生在得出一個初步診斷結果後,未能考慮其他可能性造成的。
最後,不要認為「沒消息並非好消息」。誤診的另一個原因是遺忘檢驗報告。哈佛醫學院的特賈爾‧甘地發現,33%的醫生很少向患者通報異常檢驗結果。

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The diseases often misdiagnosed. Experts: Even doctors said condition, "OK", but also to check twice.
Some common diseases are misdiagnosed, mainly in the preliminary diagnosis, failed to consider other possible factors. 【- - Misdiagnosed, with the condition will not only have serious consequences, and could also let the doctors "I mention." According lives Times quoted the American Cable News Network (CNN) reported that in 2003, actor John Rett died due to aortic dissection. His widow sued subsequent to the court, said on Rett symptoms, a hospital in California, "at least two had misdiagnosed." Recently, former American Heart Association president Dr. Robert * Bernau, and other experts also said that the patients must understand the diseases easily be misdiagnosed. 1. Cancer
Harvard medical incidents against the United States survey, the most susceptible to misdiagnosis of cancer, particularly breast cancer and colorectal cancer. In the United States, 6% -16% of breast cancer because doctors misdiagnosed or missed diagnosis delay treatment. California researchers believe that this is mainly due to excessive dependence on doctors mammography, but not fully utilized to resolve the biopsy diagnosis of the problems identified.
2. Thrombosis
Northwest Hospital cardiology head Bernau said, 80% of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in patients with no clinical manifestations. Sometimes doctors simply tell patients, the occurrence of the shortness of breath is the body only temporarily poor.
3. Heart disease
Bernau said the more serious and obvious risk of heart disease, patients will be recounted chest on the floor. But other symptoms are not evident, patients are at most a bulging chest flu, nausea only.
4. Aortic dissection
Wall heart and great vessels from endometriosis, middle and outer layer formed when the wall of high pressure to a certain degree, the vessel will suddenly torn, blood ran into the endometrium and middle (A This is the aortic dissection. Bernau said that the patients would feel at this time there are burning chest flu. "But they are usually not distinguish ignition parts, it would be wrong doctor."
5. Infectious diseases
Researchers believe that this is due to pathogenic mutation, and other factors, making patients with atypical clinical features or complex and changeable. At the same time, in recent years, some new emerging infectious diseases, but also to doctors increased difficulty.
Know what diseases easily be misdiagnosed, how should avoid? First, the demand for more inspections. New York Kirkland has been to her gynecologist complained that their menstrual disorders. But the doctor told Kirkland, which is caused by menopause. Wait until three years later diagnosed as endometrial cancer, her disease has reached advanced. Kirkland remind you, once developed symptoms within three weeks to the hospital for an examination. Even if the doctor says that you "did not cause illness", but also to check twice.
Secondly, the doctor asked, "What also may be other disease." New York Veterans Administration Medical responsible person mark-graben, he said, was misdiagnosed some common diseases, mainly doctors come to a preliminary diagnosis, failed to consider other possibilities for this.
Finally, do not believe that "no news is good news." Another reason for misdiagnosis is forgotten inspection reports. * Harvard Medical School Tegumi Gandhi found that 33% of doctors to patients rarely informed abnormal test results.

A judge has ordered a German man to stop bursting into laughter in the woods. Joachim Bahrenfeld, an accountant, was taken to court by one of several joggers who say their runs have been disturbed by Bahrenfeld’s deafening squeals of joy. He faces up to 6 months in jail if he is caught again. Bahrenfeld, 54, says he goes to the woods to laugh nearly every day to relieve stress. "It is part of living for me," he says, "like eating, drinking, and breathing." He feels that a cheerful heart, expressed through hearty laughter, is important to his health and survival.
A cheerful heart is vital in life. Proverbs 17:22 says, "A merry heart does good, like medicine." A happy heart affects our spirit and our physical health.
But there is a deeper, abiding joy for those who trust the Lord that is based on much more than frivolity and circumstances. It is a joy based on God’s salvation. He has provided forgiveness of sin and a restored relationship with Himself through His Son Jesus. That gives us a deep joy which circumstances cannot shake (Ps. 126:2-3; Hab. 3:17-18; Phil. 4:7).

足部按摩 不是越痛越好
【新華網】足部按摩領域的知名人士吳若石近日在北京說,很多人以為足部按摩「越痛越有效」,這種說法並不全面。
按摩腳底反射區可以加強身體保健功能,以腳底為主的足部按摩已風行多年。不過傳統的腳底按摩強調「越病越痛」,按摩「越痛越有效」,因此為了身體健康,被按的人即使痛得很厲害,為了保健也強忍著。其實,專家提醒,不當按摩常會造成肌肉發炎。
從事足部按摩近30年的業內人士吳若石提醒人們,痛覺依病人體質和耐痛力而定。痛覺跟病情也不一定成正比,有些人按摩某一個點特別痛,但並不是表示痛的地方,就是病得最厲害的地方,因為神經的反應點不一樣,某些部位特別靈敏,某些部位比較遲鈍,比較痛的地方只能說這個器官有異常,不能表示這個器官病得很厲害。同時,按摩的力道和按摩的效果也不成比例,並不是越用力,按摩的效果越好。
吳若石認為,按摩的要領需因人而異。操作者必須掌握「病症」,了解病人的病因、病位、病程、病史、疾病的性質、身體狀況等等,擬定診治的方法,決定先治標或治本,對像是每一個「人」而不是某一種「病」的治法。虛症應用輕而快的手法;實症用瀉法,是重而慢的手法。一個人病情重,但他的正氣還很充足時,才可以用瀉法。對老弱、婦孺絕不可用重手法,因為疼痛會令其受不了,再加上其元氣不足,瀉了之後,會使症狀更嚴重,體力更衰弱。

加拿大的牧師約翰·格萊德斯東,曾經引用以撒瓦特生命中一段悲傷的故事,來引起人們的注意。那位著名的英國詩人以撒愛上了一位妙齡少女,名叫伊莉莎白·辛格。少女也仰慕他的文采、思想和心靈,然而她對大詩人所有的欣賞都不敵她對他長相的排斥。
以撒瓦特身材瘦小,更慘的是還有一雙細小的灰眼睛,鷹鈎鼻,以及高聳的顴骨。當他向伊莉莎白 · 辛格小姐求婚時,她也十分傷心地回答:「瓦特先生,我真希望我能說,我喜愛珠寶盒,一如喜愛它裡面所裝的珠寶。」
格萊德斯東指出,福音就像是「珠寶」,教會則像「珠寶盒」。這個類比,讓人心動,有多少人拒絕福音,正因為福音的見證人往往看起來誠懇,卻熱心過度!難道我們不知不覺地變得令人討厭,沒有愛心了嗎?如果我們無法彰顯耶穌的榮美,我們如何能給瞎子領路,作「黑暗中人的光」(羅馬書2章19節)呢?

We have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. —2 Corinthians 4:7
-->About this cover

Canadian minister John Gladstone has made a compelling application of a sad episode in the life of Isaac Watts. That famous English hymnwriter fell in love with a beautiful young woman, Elizabeth Singer. She admired his poetry, his mind, and his spirit, but for all her admiration she could not overcome her revulsion at his appearance.
Isaac was short and slight, afflicted with mere slits of gray eyes, a hook nose, and large cheekbones. When he proposed to Elizabeth, she all too hurtfully replied, "Mr. Watts, if only I could say that I admire the casket [jewelry box] as much as I admire the jewel it contains."
Gladstone draws a disturbing analogy between the "jewel" of the gospel and the "casket" of the church. How many people have rejected the good news because of its often sincere yet overly zealous witnesses! Are we unknowingly repulsive and unloving? How can we be "a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness" (Rom. 2:19) if the beauty of Jesus cannot be seen in us?
By every means possible, let’s proclaim the gospel. But let’s pray that the Holy Spirit will make us personally winsome and loving and free from sin so that we can attract others to Him. —Vernon C GroundsVernon C Grounds-->

A Miracle!Made me get all teary eyed (sniff!) A little girl went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet She poured the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes. Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexall's Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door. She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention, but he was too busy at this moment Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster. No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it! 'And what do you want?' the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. I'm talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven't seen in ages,' he said without waiting for a reply to his question. Well, I want to talk to you about my brother, Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. He's really, really sick...and I want to buy a miracle.' 'I beg your pardon?' said the pharmacist 'His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?' 'We don't sell miracles here, little girl. I'm sorry but I can't help you ,' the pharmacist said, softening a little. 'Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn't enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs.' The pharmacist's brother was a well dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, 'What kind of a miracle does your brother need?' 'I don't know,' Tess replied with her eyes welling up. I just know he's really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can't pay for it, so I want to use my money.' 'How much do you have?' asked the man from Chicago'One dollar and eleven cents,' Tess answered barely audibly.'And it's all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to.''Well, what a coincidence,' smiled the man. 'A dollar and eleven cents---the exact price of a miracle for little brothers.'He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her mitten and said 'Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let's see if I have the miracle you need.' That well dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon,specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed free of charge and it wasn't long until Andrew was home again and doing well.Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place.'That surgery, her Mom whispered, was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?' Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost...one dollar and eleven cents....plus the faith of a little child. In our lives, we never know how many miracles we will need.A miracle is not the suspension of natural law, but the operation of a higher law. I know you'll keep the ball moving!

Oct21,07 男性賀爾蒙 愈低愈易發福The lower male hormone more Fat +何為正確 What’s Right?

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月21日
何為正確
讀經: 以賽亞書1章11-18節
金句: 「要止住作惡,學習行善,尋求公平,解救受欺壓的。」(以賽亞書1章16-17節)
全年讀經: 以賽亞書62-64章;提摩太前書1章

有一天早晨,我打開電腦,螢光幕上竟然一片空白,我知道它出問題了,但是我卻不知道怎麼修理。我查閱了一些資料,試了幾下,最終還是不得不向專家求救。知道出了問題只是困難的一小部分;我不會修復是因為我不知道正確的做法是什麼。
這樣的折磨,讓我想起許多出現在電視新聞節目上的學者。他們都是能指出錯誤的「專家」,但是大部分卻對正確的解決方法一無所知。
在家庭、教會、職場和人際關係中,這樣的情況也會經常發生,我們若緊盯著錯誤不放,關係就無法得以修復。當人們爭吵、或用刻薄的言行彼此傷害時,不用找專家來也知道哪裡不對勁,但我們需要專家來指教我們如何解決問題。
對於以色列的先知,上帝不僅啟示什麼是錯的,同時也指出什麼是對的:「要止住作惡,學習行善,尋求公平,解救受欺壓的,給孤兒伸冤,為寡婦辨屈。」(以賽亞書1章16-17節)
不要只定睛在錯誤上,讓我們順服上帝,因他知道何為正確。JAL
求主向我施恩惠,樂行狹窄正直路;凡你眼中美善事,總要努力謹遵行。Huisman
聖經是生命的指南針。

What’s Right?
READ: Isaiah 1:11-18
Cease to do evil, learn to do good; seek justice, rebuke the oppressor. —Isaiah 1:16-17
-->About this cover

When my computer greeted me one morning with what is ominously referred to as "the blue screen of death," I knew it was broken, but I didn’t know how to fix it. I read a little, tried a few things, but finally had to call an expert for help. Knowing that something was wrong was only a small part of the problem; I couldn’t fix it because I didn’t know the right thing to do.
The ordeal reminded me of the many pundits who appear on television news programs. All of them are "experts" at proclaiming what’s wrong, but most are clueless as to what is right.
This happens in relationships as well. In families, churches, and workplaces, nothing gets fixed because we get fixated on what’s wrong. It doesn’t take an expert to know that something is wrong when people quarrel and hurt each other with unkind words and behavior. But it does take an expert to know how to fix the problem.
God revealed to Israel’s prophets not only what was wrong but also what was right: "Cease to do evil, learn to do good; seek justice, rebuke the oppressor; defend the fatherless, plead for the widow" (Isa. 1:16-17).
Instead of focusing on what is wrong, let’s obey the One who knows what is right. —Julie Ackerman LinkJulie Ackerman Link-->
Lord, grant me grace throughout this dayTo walk the straight and narrow way,To do whatever in Thy sightIs good and perfect, just and right. —Huisman
Like a compass, the Bible always points you in the right direction.

男性賀爾蒙 愈低愈易發福(2007年10月20日)

年長男性較易患上新陳代謝症候群,出現中年發福、膽固醇過高及血糖不正常等徵狀。
【明報專訊】美國約翰霍普金斯大學醫學院研究發現,當男性年紀漸長,他們較女性更容易患上新陳代謝症候群,出現中年發福、血壓高、膽固醇過高及血糖不正常等徵狀。當男性賀爾蒙水平愈低,患此症的風險愈高。
研究員過去6年向逾600名平均年齡63歲的男性進行研究,發現男性年紀愈大,男性賀爾蒙水平愈低。在20至29歲男性中,僅4%患此症,在40至79歲男性中,患病率上升至21%。在80至94歲組別,患病率又輕微回落至18%。但在同年齡人士中,病發者的男性賀爾蒙水平相對較低。

Oct20,07 酒後駕駛drink and drive+徒勞無功 Running For Nothing

靈命日糧 - 2007年10月20日
徒勞無功
讀經: 羅馬書4章1-17節
金句: 「除他以外,別無拯救,因為在天下人間,沒有賜下別的名,我們可以靠著得救。」(使徒行傳4章12節)
全年讀經: 以賽亞書59-61章;帖撒羅尼迦後書3章

我的朋友羅傑·韋柏參加了2006年芝加哥馬拉松賽,在他起跑時發現地上有個東西。那是一個供參賽者使用的晶片──裝在選手鞋子上的一種計時器,用來記錄參賽者在整個賽程中,經過不同計時站的時間。很顯然,有一位可憐的參賽者,在接下來42公里的賽程中將沒有紀錄可查。
在正式的紀錄中,那位選手沒有參賽,因為沒有參賽的紀錄,即使他打破紀錄也沒有用。比賽的主辦者制定了比賽規則,不管什麼人,也不管跑得多麼好,如果裁判說他不合格,就不合格了。
從某種意義上來看,我們的人生也是如此。我們以為多行善事,或遵守許多規則,就能有美好的結局。但當我們抵達終點──天堂時發現,我們還沒有接受耶穌作救主,名字沒有記在羔羊的生命冊上,我們就沒有資格進入天堂。
耶穌說:「我就是道路、真理、生命;若不藉著我,沒有人能到父那裏去。」(約翰福音14章6節)。你信耶穌了嗎?如果沒有,你一生將是徒然奔跑。JDB
我是否合格並不重要,是否榮華富貴也無益;只有一事我必須確定,「我信上帝兒子嗎?」Hess
若我們能賺取救恩,基督便無須受死來救我們。

Running For Nothing
READ: Romans 4:4-17
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. —Acts 4:12
-->About this cover

As my friend Roger Weber started the 2006 Chicago Marathon, he noticed something on the ground. It was a runner’s chip—the device each runner puts on his or her shoe to record progress at various timing stations during the race. Apparently, one poor runner would be traversing the next 26.2 miles on foot with nothing to show for it.
Officially, that runner did not run the race. There would be no record of his participation. Even if he had finished the race in record time, it wouldn’t have mattered. The folks who organize the race set the rules, and no matter how well someone runs, if the officials say the runner doesn’t qualify, that’s the way it is.
In one sense, that’s also the way it is with all of us. We can run what appears to be a good race by doing good things for others and obeying lots of rules. But when we arrive at the final checkpoint—heaven—and haven’t made sure our name is recorded in the Lamb’s Book of Life by putting our faith in Jesus as our Savior, we’re disqualified to enter.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6). Are you trusting in Jesus? If not, you’re running for nothing. —Dave BranonDave Branon-->
It’s not what I achieve that qualifies,It matters not if I gain wealth or fame;The only thing I must be certain ofIs “Have I put my trust in Jesus’ name?” —Hess
If we could earn our salvation, Christ would not have died to provide it.

WE HAVE TO BE REMINDED SOMETIMES
Went to a party Mom... (read all the way to the bottom and sign your name) I went to a party, And remembered what you said. You told me not to drink, Mom, so I had a sprite instead. I felt proud of myself, The way you said I would, that I didn't drink and drive, though some friends said I should. I made a healthy choice, And your advice to me was right. The party finally ended, and the kids drove out of sight. I got into my car, Sure to get home in one piece. I never knew what was coming, Mom, something I expected least. Now I'm lying on the pavement, And I hear the policeman say, the kid that caused this wreck was drunk, Mom, his voice seems far away. My own blood's all around me, As I try hard not to cry. I can hear the paramedic say, this girl is going to die. I'm sure the guy had no idea, While he was flying high. Because he chose to drink and drive, now I would have to die. So why do people do it, Mom Knowing that it ruins lives? And now the pain is cutting me, like a hundred stabbing knives. Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom Tell daddy to be brave. And when I go to heaven, put " Mommy's Girl" on my grave. Someone should have taught him, That it's wrong to drink and drive. Maybe if his parents had, I'd still be alive. My breath is getting shorter, Mom I'm getting really scared These are my final moments, and I'm so unprepared. I wish that you could hold me Mom, As I lie here and die. I wish that I could say, "I love you, Mom!" So I love you and goodbye. MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Drivers) IS HOPING TO GET 5,000 SIGNATURES ON THIS, THEN PASS IT ON TO SIGN.
