主日(08/27/2017) 王牧師講饒恕, 聽了大有得著, 覺得重新得力, 卻是曇花一現. 星期三早上醒來, 想到一位客人欠我一筆貨款, 六星期內催了幾次都没搭理, 越想心裡越不痛快, 壞情緒順勢高漲, 到十點鐘他們開始營業時, 我早已按捺不住. 電話鈴響了好幾聲, 對方才接, 就在那一刹那, 我觸電般地想起他們公司在Houston, 應該正在受水災之苦… 天哪! 可對方從Caller ID認出了我, 想掛掉已來不及了! 説時遲那時快, 接下去我所做的連我自己都不敢相信, 我的聲音突然變得好温暖好柔和好謙卑, 向對方問候, 希望Hurricane Harvey没有給他們帯來傷害… 温暖柔和謙卑到讓我自己覺得噁心, 太虛偽了! 平時我自認臉皮夠厚, 心也夠黑, 這會兒竟耳根發燙, 全身躁熱, 額頭冒汗, 非常羞愧, 討債的變成了欠債的. 掛電話後, 久久不能自已. 主啊! 感謝祢的幫助, 讓我能及時警覺到他人的難處; 也感謝祢的管教, 讓我能為自己的虛偽覺得羞愧. 雖然一整天都很蒙神祝福, 直到傍晚在禱告會做了認罪分享, 經過弟兄姊妹們開懷的一笑後, 才覺得我罪得贖. 感謝讚美主.

Eric, thanks for the sharing! I could sense the holy spirit is working in and through you to touch the heart of your debtor! As for your comment "沒想到嘻笑人生, 十五年過去了, 還沒結出什麼好果子. 以後請大家換個角度看我: "還好這人已經信主了, 不然更糟." I was just reminded by Joni Erikson Tada (famous quadriplegic christian leader) that God delights in our trust and faithfulness in Him, not so much in our "works."

Psalm 131
10 His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse,
nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;
11 the Lord delights in those who fear him,
who put their hope in his unfailing love.
