凡事都可行, 但不都有益處. 凡事都可行, 但不都造就人(林前10:23). 無論做什麼, 都要為榮耀神而行 (林前10:31). 這些經文, 是我信主後對自己的提醒和盼望. 没想到嘻笑人生, 20多年過去, 還没結出好果子. 以後請大家換個角度看我: "還好這人已經信主了, 不然更糟."

Message-2012-0129

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.
