Be like a cactus!

I saw an inward picture of a cactus, standing strong in a desert.

Did you know that a cactus is able to have normal leaves, but they adapt with spines (modified leaves) in the desert to minimize water loss?

It also performs transpiration at night to reduce water loss.

Cacti are classified as “succulents” because they have thickened, fleshy parts to store more water.

Cacti have an extensive root system that don’t go very deep into the ground because most of the groundwater is on the upper layers due to rain. There are hardly any underground stores of water in the desert.

In a hot desert, most plants cannot survive the harsh, dry climate, but a cactus is able to survive and thrive.

It is adaptable, absorbent, attractive (can produce flowers), and able-bodied (the spines fend off predators). Truly an amazing plant that can live where most creatures cannot.

If we look at the cactus as ourselves, water as the water of God’s word, and the hot desert as this world, then we will understand this faith picture that God has for us.

God wants us to store up water and retain it efficiently just like a cactus. A cactus is designed to maximize water gain and minimize water loss.

In this world that prides itself on its own knowledge, rejecting the kingship of God, we must be like a cactus that finds every opportunity to receive God’s word.

You can retain it better when you meditate on His word. Keep it in your heart, and think about it often. This way, you will take in more, and lose less of it.

“They came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough. When they saw it, they publicized widely the saying which was spoken to them about this child. All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.” (Luke‬ ‭2:16-19‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Mary did exactly this. When others heard the good news about Jesus, they only wondered at it, but Mary kept these sayings, pondering them in her heart. She was like a cactus and retained the water.

“A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.” (Psalms‬ ‭91:7‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

“For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, who spreads out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat comes, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.” (Jeremiah‬ ‭17:8‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

In a desert whereby living creatures who cannot adapt just die of thirst and starvation, you will not. A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. You shall not even fear the heat when it comes because you are full of God’s word, unceasingly fruitful in every season!

“Can you help read their lips? I think they are talking about me.” 👀

Did you know the male Proboscis monkeys use their big fleshy nose to attract their mates and at the same time to intimidate the rival males? Proboscis monkeys live in harem groups consisting of only one dominant male and up to seven females and their offspring. Next time you see them in the wild, you now know which one is the alpha male in the group. 😉

"In the springtime, the Centifolia Rose invades the gardens at La Colle Noire, Christian Dior's beloved home in Grasse. It is an extraordinary time, when the flower's fleshy, honeyed and fruity scent lingers in the air. This perfume is an ode to that magical place and to the unique rose that grows in my home."
— François Demachy, Dior Perfumer-Creator

Hello大家好, 我係呀Tsar Hello, everyone.

今次為大家介紹東京淺草雷門斜對面的Ozeki平價超市 I will introduce Ozeki supermarket opposite to Kaminarimon Gate in Tokyo Asakusa.

產品種類相當豐富, 快啲來看看今日的五大必買, Are u ready? Their product range is quite rich, so take a look at today's top 5 best buy, Are u ready?

第一必買, 木通果，或者日文akebi, 外型相當特別 The 1st best buy is akebi with unique appearance.

木通果喺 開花的季節會釋出朱古力的香氣 This fruit will release the aroma of chocolate during the flowering season.

外表紫色嘅木通果, 裏面白色肉十分甜滑 Outer skin is purple while white meat inside is very sweet and fleshy.

味道有點似椰子, 一般人不會食皮 The taste is a bit like a coconut. Usually people don't eat outer skin.

其實在日本東北料理中, 經常將皮外殼炸成一道菜 In fact, in the northeastern Japanese cuisine, the skin shell is often fried into a dish.

即使你未必會這樣做, 但是能夠知道別人的飲食文化 Even if you don't eat, you learn the food culture of others.

都是可以增廣見聞, 這種水果優點亦都好多 It can widen your knowledge and the fruits have a lot of advantages.

含豐富的維他命C、葉酸、鉀和食用纖維，有清火利尿、敗毒抗癌等功效， Rich in vitamin C, folic acid, potassium and dietary fiber, it has the effects of cool down inner body heat, diuresis, detox and anti-cancer.

消除色斑、美白皮膚方面亦表現不俗。It also performed well in eliminating pigmentation and whitening skin.

木通自然成熟期一般為 9 月下旬至 11 月下旬。 The natural maturity of Akebi is generally from late September to late November.

由於它們產量不多, 所以有可能有些日本人都不知道有這種水果 Because they don’t produce much, it’s possible that some Japanese don’t know about this kind of fruit.

但它的價錢不算很貴, 一包三個198 Yen, 即是十四港元 But its price is not very expensive, a pack of 3 charging 198 Yen, i.e 14HKD

下次去日本,如果你見到,記得買回家試試 Worth to buy 1 for your next visit to Japan.

第二必買, 鰹魚湯包, 高湯是日本料理之中一個好重要的角色， The 2nd best buy is dashi stock powder pack which play a main role in Japanese cuisine.

主要使用昆布、鰹魚、小魚乾等食物經過長時間熬煮而成。Main ingredients such as bonito fish, kombu kelp seaweed n small dried fish stew for long time.

為了方便快捷, 聰明的日本人當然會推出袋裝高湯包 For convenience, smart Japanese will of course launch a soup podwer packing.

每次放一包湯包落去煮食, 幾分鐘就可以整到一個完美的鰹魚高湯湯底 Every time you drop a bag to cook, you can get a perfect Dashi in a few minutes.

用完即棄, 平日返工咁忙, 冇可能花太多時間去淆製一煲湯 Disposable! How can I afford the time to boil such a dashi with tons of workload in work.

我在家煲湯都是大約一星期一至兩次 I usually spend 1 or 2 times a week for boiling soup at home.

有了這個湯包, 實在為大家在廚房帶來太多方便啦 With this product, it is really convenient for everyone in the kitchen.

它還可以用嚟煮餸、炒菜、煲湯,用嚟調味一樣得 It can also be used to cook dishes, stir-fry and broth.

不用只懂得用雞粉, 一於換下新口味啦 Don't just use chicken stock powder, give yourself more options.
