Surmon Lesson: Not grumble or disput

New American Standard Bible (©1995)
Do all things without grumbling or disputing;

How did little grass hopper get indoor?

The Power from my Sponsors to Conquer JIRA Cases

Today's devotion is on John 19:30 ... when Jesus had received the vinegar, He said: "It is finished." And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit."

He died in order to restore that which was lost in the Garden of Eden: men living in fellowship with God.

Because He is our sponsor, He did not forget to send the Holy Spirit to work side by side with us day by day.

Translating to my focus on JIRAs this quarter, I see several sponsors: Sponsor in Chief, a plan-of-record sponsor Mark Guzzi who made the commitment to Torrie, and a mentor sponsor Azzedine.

There is also a customer sponsor who created the JIRAs: Steve Halter.

There are other stakeholder sponsors: Suresh B and Chris Henroid.


I'm at Sunday services for Youth 4S church, we sung about these verses: Romans 5:2-4.
I rejoice in suffering, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character, and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.

Three Steps For Each JIRA

After yesterday's JIRA review with Mark Guzzi and Balaji Sundar., I recognized that I have not taken JIRAs  seriously. I have an attitude problem, as I wrote on Wisdom For Today's note space.

Today's devotion is: Pray, Reason and Commit.

Why not applying these steps to the JIRAs?

In 4S Church Youth services, listening to Lynn Floto preaching.

• Romans 15:2: Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God's glory.
• Romans 15:3: We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. The endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.

Two Insights

Today's devotion is "fault finders vs. healers".

I believe I have been gifted to become insightful in:

1. Insightful in fighting depression. When I fight depression with other people, I feel connected to a purpose.
2. Insightful also in the apparent chaos of system SW. When I architect, I feel His joy. 

Re-newed contacts

After I got to work this morning, I found a Skype message from Shuyi: she had switched to using her account not my in-laws!

That is why I lost contact yesterday.

When I studied "Wisdom for Today" at night, I re-confirmed the message from 2011: there is a hidden sin no one knows about but me. My pride about people I work with.

I wrote the same comment, the same day 2011, and 2012.

Eric Liddell said: (page 70 of "Complete Surrender"):

• Quiet morning prayer.
• Expectation that the Bible has a message for me that can be applied to my life day by day. 

How I wish I had read it in the morning, not at night. Would have made a different attitude out of me when I was in Trevor's office.
