Elder Yeung of ACC (Arlington Chinese Church) had a great preaching in NLGC today. He preached Philippians 4: 1-18 to encourage us be gentle to everyone on everything. The testimony he brought up for Philippians 4: 6-7 touched me the most. It was about a sister who found no way to handle a kid in her Sunday school class. Then, she turned her headache to God and prayed for a solution. Later, she was surprised that God didn't do a thing for what she prayed and expected. Instead, God completely cooled her down and made her no anger when the kid did a bad thing again in her class. It turned out to be the kid was surprised by her different reaction and started behavior much better... It's easy to share messages, but difficult to duplicate the touched feeling. That's why we need attend Sunday worship to take messages by ourselves.
Philippians 4: 6-7:
6. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
應當一無掛慮, 只要凡事藉著禱告,祈求,和感謝, 將你們所要的告訴神.
7. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
神所賜出人意外的平安, 必在基督耶穌裡保守你們的心懷意念.

楊長老講得真好。我感受最深的時關於“只要凡事藉著禱告、祈求，和感謝，將你們所要的告訴神” - 感謝什麽、禱告什麽、祈求什麽。
