Lin Nu
Lin Nu (林駑) was a Chinese scholar and merchant in the early Ming dynasty. He is the ancestor of the philosopher Li Zhi.
His father was Lin Lu (林閭). Around 1376 the 30-year-old Lin Nu visited Ormuz in Persia, converted to Islam, and married a Semu girl (“娶色目女”) (either a Persian or an Arab girl) and brought her back to Quanzhou in Fujian. This was recorded in the Lin and Li geneaology《林李宗谱》.

Lean On
by: Rebecca St. JamesInto Your hands I commit my spirit
Into Your heart I place mine
Into Your will I submit all I am
As I let go peace I find
And while the background is falling
You'll find the place I can stand
Lean on Your understanding
Lean on everything You say
Lean on divine intention
Lean on every word You utter
Into Your hands I submit my troubles
Into Your world I'll unfold
And with Your strength I'll replace my weakness
As I lie down, You restore my soul
And while the background is falling
You've found the place I can stand
(In Your heavens, I will )
