Groom's Bride 新郎的新婦

2009-08-02T07:29:00.000-07:00

It's much easier to understand my relationship with God
as Father-son or Master-servant than Groom-bride...
because I am a "man"...
To picture myself as "bride" is very unmanlike...
Recently I feel God is teaching me this...
I felt God saying this to me.....
對我來說, 我比較容易體會與主的關係是主僕...是父子...
卻很難體會主與自己的關係是新郎新婦...
原因很簡單, 因為我是"男人"...
把自己看成"新婦"似乎非常不MAN...(不像男人)
最近主一直在這方面感動...突破我...
前兩天等候主的當中, 我感受到主說...

Just like before... when you know how to be My son,
you know how I love you as a Father to you,
then you have a "Father's heart",
you know how to be a good father to your son...
Likewise, when you know how to be my bride,
you know how Me as Groom loves you as a bride
then you will have a "Groom's heart"
you will really know how to be good "husband" to your wife!
就像以前, 當你知道如何作我的兒子...
體會我作為天父如何愛你時,
那麼你就有個"天父的心",
真知道如何作個好父親來愛你的兒女!
同樣的, 當你知道如何作我的新婦...
體會我作為新郎如何為你傾心時,
那麼你就會有一個"新郎的心"
知道如何作你太太的好丈夫!!!

再檢視DNA-DNA Redifined

2009-07-31T05:26:00.000-07:00

這陣子以來一直沒寫些什麼,
因為一直在尋找...尋找
一個更多人可以參與...
一個不會讓人覺得太抽象的dna 生活方式...

經過兩個多月的尋找...
其中不免含有一些挫折感...心想
這麼好的道路...
這麼簡單明寮的DNA生活方式...
為何這麼多人覺得太抽象...太難...甚至抗拒...

挫折感中也包含著一絲對神的不滿...
雖然神的聲音從沒斷過...
但我發現自己有意無意地對主有些無言的抗議...

然而神的啟示在祂的恩慈中不斷顯明...
神的愛仍然默默地包容...等候...甚至不斷觸摸...
直到最近一兩個禮拜...
終於更深地體會到主"道成肉身"的愛...原則...
主啊 ! You are so amazing... so wonderful...

長話短說...發現一個簡單的秘訣..
讓弟兄姐妹可以"沒有壓力地"來聽主聲音...
就是我們只管沉浸在主愛的同在中,
不用"刻意...努力地"去"聽主聲音"...
因為既然主的聲音是"spontaneous即興而來"...
那麼主權在主...不在我的"聽"
我只要安靜...注目於主....學習
進入主的同在中...愛慕主的同在...
那麼..."發聲權"在祂...
當祂說話時,不管是什麼方式...
聲音...意念...異象...異夢...觸摸...
我自然會聽到...感受到...看到...

如此一來, 不用有壓力...不用沒面子...
主權在神...聽不到有時...聽到有時...
都在乎神...記得是"聖靈的活水"自然湧流...
不用我去擠...不用我去擔心...
我只要更多...更渴慕在主愛的同在中...
享受祂的愛...愛祂...that's it....
Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!

聖靈的果子4

2009-05-22T06:38:00.000-07:00

自己的忍耐...
別人既然不信實, 我也不信實...
別人既然死不肯改變...
我就不管你了 ! 我很容易就放棄了 !
Your own patience...
while others unfaithful... I tend to be unfaithful...
while others never want to change...
I give up finally... easily...

與所愛的主一起忍耐...
別人不信實, 我仍然信實...
別人死不肯改變...我仍不放棄...我溫柔...I Gently push !
Patience(Long suffering) with the Love I love....
while others unfaithful...
we remain faithful---Faithfulness
while others never want to change...
we don't give up...
We(the Lord and I) Gently Push --- Gentleness

聖靈的果子3Fruit of the Spirit3

2009-05-22T05:58:00.000-07:00

這陣子主不斷教我何為聖靈的果子...
It's been a while the Lord continues to show me what is the fruit of the Spirit...

在"忍耐"中我問主,
, "主啊! 怎麼可能在忍耐中(long suffering)
有愛有喜樂有平安呢?"
主回答....
In patience (long suffering) I asked Him,
"Lord, how is it possible to have love, joy, and peace in long suffering?"

那要看你跟誰在一起？
你自己忍耐...就孤單...難過...挫折...
你若跟著所愛的對象在一起忍耐,
那就能在long suffering中有愛喜樂平安...
so... 你愛我嗎? 單純的愛我嗎 ?
當你在愛中與我在一起,
那麼甚至在長期忍耐中...
也能有愛有喜樂有平安...
That depends on who are you with.
When you are alone in long suffering,
you feel alone... frustrated...
but when you are with someone you love
then even in long suffering,
you will have love... joy.. peace...
So... do you love me? purely loving me... enjoy me...
Then even in long suffering,
you'll have love... joy... and peace....

病中的安息Rest in Sickness

2009-04-25T05:02:00.000-07:00

In&out of country +too busy+weird whether=
Sick for the whole week!
And the Lord keeps telling me,
"REST... do nothing".

So weird... just rest... doing nothing!
Sometimes I think of Jesus only...
feeling "good...sweet...."
But suddenly I feel...
Is this how it feel to be like 80,90 yrs old?

Oh Lord, I am not that old yet?

"You will be soon... at that age,
when you can only think of me...
and cannot do anything else...
will you be happy?"
The Lord asked me.

Yes....... Well.... I hope so... Lord...
I feel a little bit "happy" in that...
But Lord, more.... more....
more love to Thee.

這陣子
出國+忙碌+天氣變幻=生病整個禮拜
病中主一再說...休息...完全休息

好奇怪的感覺...完全休息...什也別作 !
常常單單想著主耶穌... 覺得很幸福...
突然間覺得....
這是否是那些80/90歲的人的感覺!

主啊! 我還沒那麼老?

"你很快就會那麼老的...
那時...你什麼也不能作...
只能單單想著我... 你會快樂嗎 ?
" 主問我 !

....................會吧 !
至少現在我感覺蠻幸福的..........
但我知道... 我願更多更深....
單單愛你!

復活前Before Resurrection

2009-04-12T07:36:00.000-07:00

這個禮拜從受難到復活,
神的話不斷提醒我三點:
第一天受苦(十字架)
第二天等候(埋葬)
第三天復活(新生命/得勝)

這兩天主繼續啟示說...
復活是我"主動發動"的,
你的功課是
1.背起我所給你的十字架(見昨日post)
2.等候- 埋葬...(自己)完全不動 !

等候真是不容易...
完全放下自己的工...需要極大的信心
我發現主一直在教我兩個功課
a.主不動我也不動 - 安息
( 常常是稍微受點苦...背一下十字架,
自己就蠢蠢欲動...沒有死透...)
b.主動了我才動...回應...抓住時機趕快動!

以往在聚會之前一定要充份準備...
查考資料...收集故事笑話...
最近學習放鬆...只是注意自己要活在主面前,
隨時與主交談...與主同行...
很多時候上台前還不知道要講些什麼...
這時候還能安息-看起來很冒險...
但我發現...
與主同冒險的歷程很有意思...很好玩 !
(adventure with the Lord...)
在受難節前一天, 在禱告中主的話語就下來..
(講"兩種十架")
週六聚晚會前上廁所時主的話才臨到
(講"等候")
每一次都有主新鮮的話語...哈利路亞 !

今天復活節, 我很興奮地等著,
不知道到時候主要給什麼話! 等著瞧吧 !
God is good... always on time....

2 kinds of cross兩種十架

2009-04-11T06:24:00.000-07:00

從太灣回來後, 每天與時差奮鬥...
迷迷糊糊中開始思想受難的信息...
感受到主要我傳講"與主同受苦"的信息,
受主要我們受的苦...
而不要去受世界加給我們的苦
Struggling with jaglet since I came back from Taiwan...
Start thinking of the "passion" message.
I felt that God wants me to speak about "suffer with Jesus"
--- to suffer what God wants me to suffer...
not to accept the suffering from the world

週四與牧者禱告時...一位牧師禱告說...
要背起主所給的十字架...
而非自己或世界給的十字架...
In pastors praying meeting on Thursday,
one pastor prayed this...
willing to take up the cross from the Lord ...
not to take up the cross from the world

當我聽到這禱告...心中"ding"了一下...
對了...就是這個....就是講這個...
我知道這是從主來的...
When I heard this prayer....
there was a "ding" in my heart...
that's it... this is it... I knew
this is what God wants me to speak...

週五受難夜我講了這個信息...兩種十架...
從主來的十架看似很沉重...
但很快地...導致釋放平安自由...
(就像耶穌的十架....沉重地嚇死人...
但第一天受難...第二天埋葬...第三天就復活)
從世界來的十架看似輕省...走捷徑...容易...
但卻要帶來"一生...永生"的綑綁....
On Good Friday I spoke about this message-
2 kinds of cross..
the cross from the Lord "look heavy...+"
but it leads to freedom... peace... healing...
(Just like Jesus' cross... it looks
"too heavy... scares me to death"..
but he suffers and dies for 1st day..
2nd days -bury...and then
on the 3rd days... he resurrected... )
on the contrary, the cross from the world
"looks easy... fast solution..."
but it leads to bondage...
for lifetime long... even for eternity...

所以...你的選擇是那一種十架?
神啊...祢是何等美好...
主耶穌...祢是何等美好...
聖靈啊...祢真是天堂的天才...
謝謝祢及時...隨時的幫助引導啟示...
哈利路亞 !
so... what's your choice?
God is good... all the time...
Jesus is good... all the time...
and Holy Spirit, You are a genius...
Thank you for the help... on time... in time...
Hallelujah!

攀岩

哈利路亚...主耶酥跟你走过的路径处处留下惊喜,想到你属于我我属于你, 我们朝朝暮暮在一起,我就是这样的满足... 在你里面我每天欢喜快乐.

我看到自已像个小孩被主抛在空中,然后又接住,
像天下爱孩子的父母一样跟孩子在玩耍,
主耶酥哈哈大笑,我也被逗得咯咯大笑.我好开心.

又看到主耶酥带领我攀岩石,虽然那岩石很难爬,
但主常常伸手拉我一把,我们终于爬上了岩顶群山峻岭都在我们脚下.

我对主说:今早我和团契辅导有着很美好的交通,
透过她使我得更到深的释放,
更明白我的一生...都是掌握在神的手中,
我要...为神每天的带领及我们家所发生的事都来感谢.

这时我又见我弯下腰给主耶酥鞠了一躬, 看到主扶着我的双肩很开心的说(”weII”很好,你这样做得很好.在走天路过程中需要有人来扶持,她是你的属灵遮盖,因为走天路非常的难走.就像我们在攀岩一样如果没有人拉你一把.你可能就会后退没有勇气再往前行了,就像我和你一样不是彼此拉着爬着才爬到顶峰的吗?)

谢谢主的话语. 在和辅导祷告时.
我觉得腹中有江河在奔腾,
祷告的时候真的感觉圣灵在带领,
这样的感觉是以前没有的经验.
难怪辅导说我们又多了个代祷者,
主啊!谢谢你,盼望你常赐下圣灵与我同在.

三個連續的異象

2009-03-19T21:34:00.000-07:00

我把這一週，連續看到的三個異象記錄下來。前兩個是在等候神時領受的，最後一個則是在開車時領受到的。這三個異象使我改變對人的看法，也改變我對服事的態度，使我更喜樂，更懂得欣賞身邊的人，也更能夠享受與主同工。

3/11/09
主讓我看到我與他同騎著馬，越過一天很美麗的山水，草地綠油油的，非常美麗，讓我心靈安寧。我們一直往前走，是要騎進一個高聳的山。然後當我向上仰望時，我看到父神的笑容，他是那麼開心，那麼喜樂。主阿，這異象是什麼意思？

「那些綠油油的山水，是我一直帶你經過的，只是你常錯過，你看到的都是前面的路，前面的挑戰…，但不要忘記我放在你身旁的美景，是要給你欣賞，讓你enjoy 的。當然，不要只看前面的挑戰，要在往上看，看那在天上愛你的父，就是我。Enjoy the journey, enjoy me.」

3/13/09
在等候神的時候，我繼續看到上次的那個異象。我聽到號角聲，似乎在提醒我催促我不要逗留眼前的美景。我很捨不得離開，因為前面看起來像是曠野，不是綠油油的山水和草原。但我還是跟著主的馬往前，當我往前看得時候，發現主所經過的地方，那裡的曠野立刻變成綠油油的山水和草原，我跟在他後面，其實根本沒有錯失什麼。

前方的路很遙遠，似乎永遠都到不了盡頭，有個聲音告訴我，這是一個接力，需要交棒給下一代，延續下去才會到終點。主似乎在提醒我，也許我不是那個finisher，但又有什麼關係？祂不也是等待了那麼久？！然後我看到兩個小朋友在玩耍，玩得很開心，我好羨慕，真希望我是他們。

這時候主感動我，「向主捨己不是一件痛苦的事，而是記溫柔又甜美的事。因為主愛我，因此我可以喜樂的把生命交給祂。」於是我把自己的心思、想法、目標、理想…都放在手中，交給了主，並從祂那領受新的生命和氣息。突然我發現，騎馬的圖片改變了，我變成和主一同旅遊、玩耍，就像那兩個孩子一樣。「捨己是通往喜樂和享受與主同行的必經路徑」！

3/17/09
接續3/13看到的異象，今天在開車時，我又看到接續的畫面。我看見原本通往高山，沿路充滿挑戰與危險的路，突然間變為通往神榮耀之城的大道。我問神這是什麼意思，得到的答案是：「當你用我的眼光來看，就不覺得這條路是苦的，而是我為你預備的大道，通往位神百姓預備的榮耀之城。」

Thanks to 1 particular comment...
I have been thinking over one question...
How to cultivate DNA lifestyle
while at the same time protecting privacy
謝謝一個建言, 我從新思考一個問題
如何一方面培養DNA門徒生活
一方面又能保護隱私 !

I've been thinking...praying...
I feel God is leading me to this direction
Turn this blog into a place where
disciples share DNA living anonymously

幾天來的思考..禱告尋求...
我覺得主在引導一個方向...
把這個園地變成一個讓
門徒以匿名的方式見證DNA生活的園地...

How to do it? I am still seeking...
Some technical problems...
(If you are an internet expert... please help)
to talk to peoples... collect testimony...
Please be patient... Coming Soon!
Hallelujah!
如何作? 我還在尋求....
如何解決一些網路技術的問題
(如果你是網路高手...請幫幫我)
如何跟人分享...收集見證...
敬請期待...忍耐中有恩慈+良善...

Need God's Wisdom需要神智慧

2009-03-12T06:38:00.000-07:00

As a pastor, there is a constant struggle in me...
how much "DNA" I should share in this blog?
DNA is about life and relationship with God... with 1 or 2 disciples... and with non-believers.
It's personal... actually too personal to put it on internet
作為一個牧師...我一直有一個掙扎...
我可以分享多少DNA在這blog裡面?
DNA是我自己與神+門徒夥伴(1-2位)+非基督徒的關係
說實在的...這是蠻私人的...

DNA must be real....
real life involves personal ..relational struggle...
many times involves my own family...
But it would not be valuable if it's not real...
DNA 需要真實...
真實就會牽涉到掙扎...牽涉到關係...家人...
不真實就沒有價值...

On the other hand,
Being too real also drive people away...
especially in Chinese "face " culture...
但如果太真實...又會使許多人不敢踏入...
特別是面對華人的"面子文化"...

"Oh God... I need your wisdom..."
I cried out to the Lord...
主啊 ! 我需要祢的智慧...
我向主呼求...

I feel that God wants me to stop for a while...
to think over this issue...
and I believe God will give me wisdom....
我覺得神似乎要我停一下...
重新思考....相信祂會給我智慧 !

God Reminds Again 神又提醒

2009-03-11T06:06:00.000-07:00

Last night elders and pastors had long meeting...
In the middle... we seemed to had fun... but
in the end I think I felt a little bit frustrated....
This morning while waiting upon the Lord,
many thing flew over my mind....
especially about last night...
And God reminded me again....
昨晚有個很長的牧長會議...
中間似乎還蠻有意思...
但我想到最後我的表達有點挫折感
今晨親近主時思緒有點亂...
特別因昨晚的會議....
突然間神第二次提醒我...

Didn't I say "kindness and goodnessin the process of patience...."? (last Thursday)
我不是說過"忍耐中有恩慈良善"嗎 ?

Oh Lord! You are good....
I know that...
but I can't do it...
主啊 ! 祢真是厲害...
我知道...可是我作不到...

That's why you need me... Remember...
it's a fruit of the Holy Spirit....
not of your patience.... your own patience will accumulate frustration...anger... and then acts out.....
but my fruit of patience has kindness ...goodness
這就是你需要我的原因...記得...
"這忍耐"是聖靈的果子...從聖靈來....
不是從你自己而來....
你的忍耐只會堆積挫折...不平...
但我的忍耐中有恩慈良善...

Yes Lord... Thank You for your Patience...
Oh Lord... Give me Your kind....
是的主...感謝"祢的忍耐"...
將"祢"的忍耐賜給我 !

Just Do It 就去作

2009-03-09T06:11:00.000-07:00

宣教年會結束了,
一句話一直縈繞在腦子中...
Just Do It.... 就去作...
Mission Conference ended yesterday.
One phrase keeps ringing in my mind ....
Just Do It....

禱告中...一個意念....
為病人禱告...
好像有幅圖書...
禮拜堂前面旁邊牆壁擺了些椅子...
有人在為背痛的禱告...
先測試他們是否有長短腳...
以權柄吩咐他們的腳長出來...
While praying... one thought...
Pray for the sick...
and it looks like a picture...
there are some chairs in the sanctuary,
Some people are praying for people with back pain...
They examine their legs first...
then command the leg to grow....

是的...主... 為病人禱告
好多人都已經受過訓練...
領受過恩賜的按手...分賜...
現在...要給他們實際操練...
Just Do it... 就去作... 哈利路亞 !
Yes... Lord! Praying for the sick...
So many peoples already are trained...
So many peoples receives impartation...
Now.... Just let them Do it...
Just Do it.... Hallelujah!

宣教年會Mission Conference

2009-03-08T07:32:00.000-07:00

在整個宣教年會中,
神一次又一次的提醒...
在這個教會中...
講太多...作太少...
講太多...示範太少...見證太少...
Last 2 days in Mission Conference,
God reminds me again and again...
in this church...
Talk too much... Do too little...
Proclamation too much...
Demonstration too little....

是的 !主! 幫助我,
早點閉嘴...Just Do it...
Yes! Lord! Ｈelp me...
Shut up earlier... Just Do it!

忍耐中有恩慈Kindness in Patience

2009-03-05T05:52:00.000-08:00

有一次主告訴我...
為什麼聖靈的果子是愛...喜樂...
因為當你談"戀愛"(愛)時,
不管你面對什麼難題...
就是天塌下來, 你仍然很快樂(喜樂)...
然後你的心終於有"安息"(平安)
Once the Lord showed me...
why the fruit of the Holy Spirit is...
Love... Joy...Peace
Because when you fall in "Love"...
no matter what happens...
you are happy--- you have "Joy"!
And your heart finally found "peace"

今晨親近主時, 神又告訴我...
為何聖靈的果子是...忍耐...恩慈...良善...
This morning in my quiet time with God...
He showed me again...
when the fruit of the Spirit is
Patience... Kindness... Goodness...

因為"忍耐"中有"恩慈"不是從人來的...
人的忍耐持續不久...很快就會發脾氣...
然後會作些"不恩慈...沒有良善"的事...
但從聖靈來的忍耐卻是不同...
忍耐中有恩慈憐憫...
忍耐中能做出"良善"的事...
Because "kindness" in "patience" is not human nature...
human's patience doesn't last long...
soon or later anger follows...
then you will do something that is not kind and good...
But Patience from the Spirit is different...
There is Kindness... Goodness...
in the process of Patience...

我突然間明白這陣子以來的自己...
為何好像沒有那麼喜樂平安...
甚至跟兒子吵架...
對教會屬靈光景有點灰心...
因為在自己的忍耐中
會失去耐性...會發作...
I suddenly understand where I am...
how come not having much "joy...peace"...
why I even fought with my son...
why I feel frustrated about church situation...
because my own patience is not real patience...
anger and frustration follows...

突然間我也明白何為神的"長痛"...
祂對我是如此"不輕易發怒"....
I also feel what God's "long-suffering" means...
How He is "slow to anger" to me... to many....

主啊! 我需要祢的忍耐...
聖靈啊...我需要祢!
所以我可以在恆久忍耐中...
有恩慈...有良善...
Oh Lord, I need that...
I need Your Patience...
so that I can have Kindness and Goodness
in this long-suffering process....

主的審判Judgment of the Lord

2009-03-04T06:29:00.001-08:00

昨晚一位姐妹講到主對她說..
"妳所要的我都給妳了(孩子...恩賜...服事...),
我也要審判妳..."
她起先以為她聽錯了...
後來想起那五千兩...兩千兩...和一千兩的比喻
才相信這也是從神而來

今晨親近主時為此禱告...
主提醒我說...
不要怕審判...也不用怕講審判...
我的審判有兩種結果...
1. 你這又良善又忠心的僕人...可以進來享受...
2. 你這又惡又懶的僕人...丟到外面黑暗裡...
前者指的是善用主所給的才能
勇敢去作天國投資的人
後者指的是因懼怕而隱藏自己才能者...

我想到自己....想到許多弟兄姐妹...
其實在服事中....人人都會有懼怕...
就如基甸和那三百勇士...
他們並不是沒有懼怕...
而是願意回應主呼召...
跨過懼怕出來服事,
就看到神使用...神同在....

主啊 ! 難怪祢會對約書亞說,
"當剛強壯膽...不要懼怕...也不要驚惶...."
幫助我靠著祢的應許,
在祢的同在中....
跨越懼怕...爭戰得勝...
將來可以坦然面對祢的審判!

I AM for you 我是為了你

2009-03-03T08:18:00.000-08:00

這兩天睡得好晚,
因為在作房子整修...好累...
早上試著安靜親近神,
但滿腦子的事情...
房子整修...兒子的頭髮...
宣教年會...教會40天禁食禱告...
有情天三月底台灣巡迴...
完全無法安靜下來...
I woke up late the last two days
because I did some house works...
very tired... this morning
when I tried to wait upon the Lord,
so many things flew over my head....
I found myself couldn't quiet down....
house works... my son's hairstyle...
mission conference... 40 days fast prayer...
Heaventunes' tour in the end of March....

我掙扎著想安靜...掙扎再掙扎....
突然間一個意念進來...
I struggled... tried to be still...
while struggling again and again...
suddenly came a spontaneous thought...

"Why not just pray for these things...
I am in all these things...and
I AM for you, not against you(these things)
為何不就為這些事禱告...
我都在這些事當中..
I AM for you, not against you...
我是為你的..不是敵對你(這些事)的..."

我順著這意念去禱告...
然後我感受到主濃厚甜蜜的同在...
哈利路亞 !
主真是"為我", 不是"拉扯我" !
I obeyed this thoughts...
and prayed those things...
I felt the sweet presence of the Lord...
Hallelujah! Indeed...
God is For me, not against me....

Let Go and Let God放手讓神

2009-03-01T06:54:00.000-08:00

兒子前天理了個很奇怪的頭,
太太看了非常苦惱...
到現在我還沒有看到
(也許他故意躲著我)
跟太太禱告時神不斷地提醒我們...
My son cut a very weird hairstyle
My wife was very upset
and until now I havn't seen it yet...
(Maybe he is trying to avoid me)
While praying with Rachel,
God reminds us ....

放手交給我...
讓我來處理...
我愛他, 我正在他身上作工 !
Let go... and let me handle it...
I love him....
and I am doing something in him...

我記得我以前輔導會友的家庭...
遇到這種情形, 我也是如此勸父母...
let go and let God 放手交給神處理
但真沒想到會發生在自己的兒子身上
說實在的...真不容易 !
但...好吧! 我只有不斷地...真正地相信...
神啊 ! 我知道祢的刀正在修剪...
(這個禮拜體會很深...)
一方面修剪我...
但主啊 ! 祢一定一定也會修剪他的...
I remember I used to advise other parent the same way when that happened...
Let go and let God....
Yet... it's another story when that happens to my own family...
I can only keep persuading myself...
Trust God...God is up to something...
His knife (Monday's post)... is doing something..
on me... but please God...
Do something on him too....

主啊....995 (救救我) 哈利路亞!!!
Oh God... HELP!!! Hallelujah!!!

2009-02-27T05:57:00.000-08:00

While waiting upon the Lord,
out of nowhere came one drop of tear!
one drop only... weird.... and
I was just trying to focus on the Lord...
I wasn't thinking of anything or anyone...
Why Lord? I asked...
清晨親近主時...突然間莫名其妙地...
一滴眼淚流下來...奇怪的是...當時
我只是試著注目於天父...
我根本沒想著其他事或人...
我問主, "主啊 ! 為什麼?"

No answer... No word in the beginning...
only in my mind feeling a sense of
" a little bit of holy sadness"
about my family... church...
and one word came --- pray!
主沒有回答...沒有話語...
只有一種"少許地...神聖的憂傷 "
然後一個字出現於心中---禱告!

Yes Lord... I need to be alert and pray!
I have been too busy and tired...
jetlag from London trip + too many meetings...
Fighting with my son...
worrying about him lack of spiritual hunger...
40 days fast and prayer... mission conference...
church atmosphere seems to be also lack of that...
是的...主! 我需要儆醒禱告...
這陣子有點太累...
倫敦回來後時差+忙著開會...
昨天與兒子吵架...
憂心他缺乏屬靈的渴慕...
教會中普遍的風氣好像也是如此...
40天禁食禱告...宣教年會推動...
都不怎麼熱絡 !

Pray pray pray....Lord, arise your people...
禱告禱告禱告...主啊 !興起祢的百姓 !

Father's Love 為父之愛

2009-02-26T06:27:00.000-08:00

I had a fight with one of my son!
I was mad at him for not having spiritual hunger.
I said something that shouldn't be said...
I did something that shouldn't be done...
and I was mad at other people relalted to him... especially myself....
我與我的兒子之一吵了一架...
我生氣...因為他對屬靈的之事太漠不關心
我說了不該說的話...作了不該作的事 !
我甚至生他週邊相關的人的氣 !

I couldn't even pray... just so frustrated.
But of course I still talked to God....
asking why?
And God revealed to me.... reminding...
我氣得不能禱告....非常地挫折感
但當然, 我心中還是跟主對話....
問祂...為什麼?
主提醒我....

Feel My love(yesterday's post)....
understand that I don't comdemn you....
even at this incident...
I have expectation on you...
I work on you, but no "pushy"...
Why don't you write down 2 things
1.your expectation on him....
2. where you think he is now...
then pray for the difference... and
let me work with you together on him...
in a no pushy way....
感受那為父的愛吧(昨日的分享)!
我的無奈...我的心意...
更要了解....甚至在這事上,
我都不定你的罪 !
我對你有期待...我正在運行動工...
但我不強迫你 !
所以....你可以寫下這兩樣...
1. 你對他的期望...
2. 你覺得他現在的光景...
然後, 為之間的差異來禱告...
讓我們一起來作工...在他身上....
沒有強迫的 !

Father, thank You....
even though You are sad because
very often I lack of spiritual hunger...
yet You are so patient... so kind...
Your knife(Monday's post) is gentle...
I am willing to receive Your "trimming"...
Please work on me... and work with me
in dealing with my own son.
父啊! 我感謝祢... 雖然很多時候
祢也為我缺乏屬靈饑渴而傷心...
但祢卻是如此耐心...恩慈...
連祢的刀都是如此溫柔(週一的分享)
我願意接受祢的"修剪"...
求祢在我身上動"刀"...
也跟我一起來面對...
在我自己的兒子身上動工!

愛我的天父Father Loves Me

2009-02-25T06:20:00.000-08:00

這兩天心中一直響著這首歌
"有位愛我的天父"...
(Hillsongs -約書亞專輯-"聽我的呼求"
http://mymedia.yam.com/m/1529464)
One song keep ringing in my heart these 2 days...
"There Is A Father Who Loves Me"
(http://mymedia.yam.com/m/1529464)

清晨親近主時又唱著這首歌...
唱著唱著...心中充滿著幸福...唱著唱著...
突然心中一陣感動..踴動...衝動...
好想更多更多地去愛太太...
愛孩子...愛兄弟姐妹...
This morning in my quiet time,
I sang this song over and over again...
I felt really warm in my heart....
And suddenly.... a wave of love flew from within...
to love my wife more... to love kids more...
to love brothers and sisters more.... more....

天父, 何等感謝祢無比的愛...
也感謝祢賜給我祢的愛...去愛人....等
Father, Thank you for such wondrous love...
and thank you for giving me that love to love others....

拿著小刀small knife

2009-02-23T07:44:00.000-08:00

今晨好幸福...睡到自然醒...
並沒有努力地想等候神...親近主...
只是很自然地跟主說說話...聊聊天...
沒想到...主給了我一句寶貴的話...
This morning I feel so good... sleep a lot....
wake up naturally...
no special effort to waiting upon the Lord...
no special effort to "hear God's voice"...
only talk to God... kind of "chat with God"...
then came a precious word from the Lord!

當你願意讓耶和華軍隊的元帥拿著刀
除掉你生命中的不聖潔時,
你就ready 成為耶和華軍隊的元帥...
拿著小刀(主拿大刀)...對付仇敵..
斬斷綑綁....
When you are ready to face My Knife...
(Joshua 5 --- see yesterday's post)
to let Me take away your "unholiness"
Then you are ready to take a small knife...
you are ready to be in My army....
to cut off the bondage from the enemy...
to set the captive free...

Hallelujah!!! 哈利路亞....

耶和華軍隊的元帥The commander of the LORD's Army

2009-02-22T05:54:00.000-08:00

Joshua was looking at Jerico
before the battle,
and to his surprise he saw Someone...
standing with a knife.... He asked him,
" are you helping us or helping them?"
And to his surprise He said,
"neither... I come to be the commander
of the Lord's army. ..." (Joshua 5)
爭戰前約書亞察看耶利哥的地形..
不料他看到一個人, 手裡有拔出來的刀...
他說他不是來幫助任何一方的...
而是來作"耶和華軍隊元帥的"!

When I meditated on this passage,
I felt God asked me of this question,
"What is My knife for?"
當我默想這經文,
我覺得主在問我一個問題...
"我的刀是作什麼用的? "

"Of course, to kill the enemy...."
I replied...
當然是用來擊殺仇敵的...我回答

"Who is My enemy?" asked the Lord,
"那麼誰是我的仇敵?" 主問我

Evil... sins.... I said,
邪惡...罪....我回答

Mmmmm..... suddenly I got it....
when the Lord said, "Neither...I come to be
the commander of the Lord's army"
He is saying,
"I come to kill my enemy...
no matter you are in Jerico or in Israel's camp,
whenever there is evil... sin...
I am going to kill "it"!
突然間我懂了...當主說,
我不是來幫助你們或他們...
而是來做耶和華軍隊的元帥"時
祂是在說,
不管你是在耶利哥城外或城內,
只要是有罪惡的地方, 我都要對付的 !

I recalled the years of my ministry
I saw.... the Lord's knife...
took away my anger... my fear.... anxiety...
my inconsideration... my inner accusation....
my legalistic mentality.. my pride.... my......
Oh... what wondrous love...
Even Your "Knife" is so Kind...
Your Knife is an "inner surgercal knife"
that takes away my sins...
我回想我服事主的這些年日....
我彷彿看到"主的刀"...
割掉了我的脾氣...我的不體貼...
我的懼怕...憂慮... 我裡面的自責控告....
我的律法主義心態...我的驕傲...我的......
主啊...何等的愛...
甚至連"你的刀"都是溫柔的....
好像一把"內在生命的手術刀..."
割除我生命中的罪!!!

Lord.... Thanks You... Praise You!!!
主啊 !讚美祢...感謝祢 !

Living Word,Living God活道真神

2009-02-21T05:27:00.000-08:00

I was meditating on bed...
praying on bed...
for family...for church...
for preaching gospel...
I cried out to the Lord,
Lord.... breakthrough...
we need breakthrough
and then suddenly these words came...
在床上我默想...
在床上我禱告...
為家人...為教會...為福音...
我呼求主....主啊 !突破突破...
忽然心中湧出這句話...

I am the Living Word, Living God....
Please... tell my people...
Do not "fix me down"....
I am Powerful because I am "Living"...
I move... I relate...because I am Living...
我是活的道...真的神...
告訴我的百姓...
拜託拜託...不要把我固定下來...
我大有權能因為我是活的真神...
我運行...我互動...因為我是活的...

I thought of that commandment-
"You shall not make for yourself an idol
in the form of anything..."
Yes... Lord, You are Living...
I confess... I repent... myself...and
on behalf of church... so many time
we "fix" you down in the "form"---
worship service...structure... procedure...
in our mind... in our words... in our fear...
Oh Lord, forgive me... forgive us....
我想到十誡中...不可雕刻偶像....
主啊 ! 我承認...我悔改...
為我自己..也代表教會...
多少時候我們把你限制...固定在型式中~
禮拜...結構...過程...在我們心中...話語中...
特別是在我們的懼怕中...
主啊 !赦免我們!

Then a melody came...
I went to the keyboard,
playing....worshipping...
in free style worship....
for 30 minutes....only these words...
"Living Word, Living God....
How I love You... How I love You...."
然後一個旋律動機從心中湧起...
我打開琴...彈奏...敬拜...自由敬拜...
約半個小時...僅僅幾個字...
"活的道...真的神...
何等愛祢...何等愛祢..."

需要您的代禱Need Your Prayer

2009-02-20T05:47:00.000-08:00

從倫敦服事回來, 就逢各種開會...
總會...數代連結大會...區牧靈修會...
主提醒我要邀請代禱者為此禱告...
Coming back from London,
Right away attending so many meetings....
GA... Bridging Conference...
Regional pastor retreat...
God reminds me to call intercessors to pray...

特別是在區牧靈修會中,
我要分享"牧者自我成長與調適"
主要我分享自己DNA生活操練...
幫助牧者們能進入安息的生活與服事中 !
Pray specially for regional pastor retreat,
I need to lead a session about "healthy growing pastor"
I feel that God wants me to share about DNA lifestyle
to help pastors to entering God's rest in life and ministry.

今晨主再一次提醒我這經節-
"不可少的只有一件"--- 在主腳前安靜
不管我們多累..多忙...作多大的事工...
還是這經節-不可少的只有這一件 !
Today the Lord again reminds me of this
Just like Mary sitting before Jesus
"Only one thing is needed"---
No matter how tiring.. how busy...
how big ministry that we do ...
"Only one thing is needed"!

因為主曾說...
"沒有領受的付出是從人來的"...
從人來, 走不遠...
從人來, 是累人的---自己累, 別人也累 !
主從來不要求我們去父出祂未曾供應我們的 !
如此服事才能進入主的安息...
God once said this...
"Giving without receiving first is not from God"
We give because God provides first....
He will never ask me to give without His provision.
Serving with this principle, then we can have peace.

禱告勇士們, 請代禱...
我需要代禱...
眾牧者需要代禱...
牧者健康, 教會才會健康 !
主阿 ! 救命 ! Help!
Intercessors, please intercede...
I need prayers...
Pastors need prayers...
to have healthy church,
pastor need to be healthy first...
Oh...Lord! Help!!!!

Home, Sweet Home回家真好

2009-02-19T05:51:00.000-08:00

出外服事十天, 昨晚平安回到家...真好 !
作完主的工...真好 !
(歇了工, 有進入神安息的感覺!)
當然...抱抱孩子...真好!
睡自己的床...真好!
Home! Sweet Home!
Coming back from 10 days trip to London,
feeling "mission accomplished"...
feeling "entering into God's rest"
Of course, hugging kids... my own bed...
Soooooo..... Gooooooooood!

回顧這趟旅行服事...我問主...
"好"在那裡? 主提醒三點...
Looking back to this trip, I asked the Lord,
what's good about it.....
God reminded me 3 things.....

1. 你看, 許多學生在恩典中得"釋放自由"...
(學生大都是保守背景, 常被宗教律法壓抑!)
主說, "你那裡都要傳[恩典]的福音!"
Look... many students were set free...
(Most students come from conservative background...
very oppressed by "law" of the church...)　
and God said,
"Wherever you go... preach "Good News"！

2. 要鼓勵妻子們多多與先生同行 !
搭地鐵去上課, 走在倫敦街上...
師母會自動牽著我的手...那感覺真好 !
(在美國大家各自開自己的車...
各走各的路, 牽手機會不多!)
Need to encourage "couple ministry"...
While taking subway,
walking on the street of London...
Rachel hold my hand "naturally"...
It feels really Good! (in US, we...
drive our own cars, walk our own way
... less opportunity to hold hands"

3. 與一宣教士夫婦一起生活一週,
看他們夫婦節衣縮食...過簡僕生活...
(連到垃圾都要從中心帶回家...
Wow...另人佩服 ! )
Living with a missionary couple for 1 week,
seeing their simple lifestyle,I feel ...
How luxery is our lives in US...
(They took trash from office back to home....
in order to save money!)

是的 !　回家真好 !
有家庭的溫暖...還有
有做完工那種滿足的安息!
有事奉中的學習!
有說不盡的感恩 !
Yes... Sweet Home...
Warm hugs... warm bed...and
Feeling "fulfilling" in doing God's will...
Learning in serving...
Giving thanks and praise
from our heart to our God!

印證Confirmation

2009-02-06T06:50:00.000-08:00

週二與一位知名大牧師談論DNA lifesyle...church...
那天有點匆促, 只談了個概念...
沒想到隔天這牧師就打電話來,
希望深入了解...
我問主說, 主啊 ! 我知道這不是偶然的...
祢要說什麼 ? 對我... 對那牧師....
主說,
Tuesday I talked with a very famous pastor about DNA lifestyle and church....
We were kind of rush because of time....
so I only shared with that pastor briefly...
But that pastor called the next day....
hope to know more about the detail...
I asked God, "dear Lord, I know this is not by accident...
what do you want to say to me and to that pastor?
And God says....

"為你是印證...為那牧師是國度..."
For you it's comfirmation...
For that pastor is about Kingdom

主啊 ! 謝謝祢...
祢知道我有時還會有顧忌... 甚至懷疑...
因為許多時候我跟一些牧者分享
他們大都有許多負面的顧忌....
我覺得祢藉著這牧師的肯定在告訴我....
"不要再猶豫...只要
放手去作我要你作的!!!
Oh Lord! Thank you...
you know sometimes I am still wondering...
Is this from you?
Many time I share with other pastors....
Many have negative feeling about this...
But through this pastor,
I feel that you are saying this to me...
"Don't be afraid... Don't hesitate...
Go ahead and do what I want you to do!"

主啊 !求祢帶領今天我們第二次的分享....
給我印證...
幫助我們今天的分享有"神國度的價值"
Oh Lord, guide us today for the sharing...
Give me Your confirmation....
and lead our conversation...
to have Kingdom value -beneficial to Your Kingdom!

感謝耶穌Thank You, Jesus

2009-02-05T05:57:00.000-08:00

讀完利未記那些細節煩瑣的"潔淨"的條例,
心中說不出的感恩...
主耶穌, 因為有祢...
如今我們不用再守這些煩瑣的條例...
Read over the detailed rules in Leviticus
about "cleansing",
my heart was filled with praise and thanksgiving.
Oh Lord! Jesus, because of you....
I don't need to follow that step by step....

然而神也提醒我...
這些條例仍有它的價值與功效...
昨晚在一間空房子的牆壁上看到"鬼魔"的圖畫
一方面看到時很不舒服...
一方面回到家後"火氣"就莫名其妙地起來
我趕緊呼求主....奉主的名求耶穌寶血潔淨 !
才恢復平靜....
But God also reminded me...
these rules have it's value and reasons...
Last night I saw an evil picture on the wall of a house,
I felt very uncomfortable when I saw that..
and how weird...somehow I felt angry when I got home...
I called up the name of Jesus,
asked His blood to cleanse me....
and then I had peace again....

主啊 ! 因著祢一次獻上...
我如今不用再獻那些牲畜(how blooded)...
只要隋時獻上自己....活在祢的保護中...
更隨時靠著祢的寶血...得以潔淨...
哈利路亞 ! 信耶穌真正好 !
Oh Lord! Because You sacrificed Youself once for all...
I now don't need to offer the animal sacrifice(how blooded)...
I only need to offer myself.... to live under your protection!
And I can always be cleansed by Your precious blood...
Hallelujah! My Lord, Jesus.... You are so Goooooood....

聖潔的呼召Calling to Holiness

2009-02-04T06:08:00.000-08:00

清晨禱告時, 主把利未記的信息放我心裡...
"我是聖潔的, 所以你們要成為聖潔"
While praying... God put the message of Leviticus into my heart "Therefore be holy, because I Am Holy"

為24小時禱告中心禱告..
為48位以上的代禱者禱告...
這聖潔的呼召不斷地強化...
主也啟示說...
要聚集代禱者, 開始潔淨聖殿,
從講壇開始....自卑...祈禱...認罪...
呼求我的名...
I prayed for 24 hours prayer center...
prayed for 48 and up intercessors...
The calling of Holiness intensified in my heart.
And God said....
"Gather intercessors, start cleansing from the altar...
humble yourselves.. pray... confess...
calling in My name..."

"主啊 ! 何時開始?" 我問主...
主提醒說..."受難夜之前七週"
我一看日曆...2/20...
我跟主說, "主啊 ! 那時有總會..."
主說, " even better" (那更好!)
I asked the Lord, "when"?
I felt the Lord said,
"7 weeks before Good Friday" ,...
I looked at the calendar,
"wait, Lord, there will be GA meeting..."
God said, "Even Better"....

請代禱者準備好....如果來自於神...
no pressure... but with pleasure!
(沒有壓力, 但有從喜悅的動力)
Intercessors, Get Ready....
If this is from God,
No pressure, but with pleasure.....

接納Acceptance

2009-02-03T06:03:00.000-08:00

昨天因為家中一點小事, 心中忿忿不平!!!
帶著這氣, 早早上床睡覺...
但心中還是禱告....
主啊 !憐憫我...向我說話!
Yesterday I was angry at something... someone... Honestly,
I didn't get over when I went to bed...
But still in my heart I prayed...
Lord, have mercy on me... talk to me..

奇妙的是....早上醒來....
模糊地...非常模糊地記得一個夢....
夢見跟牧師室的同工一起查考一段經文...
只記得其中一位同工分享他與兒女的事....
如何與他們玩...如何愛他們...
那同工分享到感動處...哭了....
然後....夢中的我...
竟然拿這個例子來教導大家說....
這就是天父的愛....balabalabala.....
雖然有兩個人跟本沒在聽....
我還是一直講.... balabalabala....
How weird.... I had a dream ... about
studying a passage with PO coworkers...
Then a co-worker started sharing the relationship between him and his children.... how he plays with them... how he loves them...
Then, I started to "teach" everyone about "Father's Love"...
I keep on talking about that.... balabalabala... while 2 peoples talking at the same time....

醒來時... 心中還是有氣....
禱告時根本不能專心...
但有許多自己講過的道....
接納...赦免....70個7次....
都浮現在腦海中....
其實我知道神在對我說什麼 !
主啊!憐憫我.... 我真是需要祢的幫助...
賜我生命與力量去活出祢的愛...祢的接納....
I still had anger inside when I woke up....
I couldn't focus when I prayed...
But many sermons I preached came back...
Acceptance... Forgiveness.... 70 times 7....
all came back...
Actually I know what God is saying to me...
But Lord, I really need your help...
Have mercy on me...
Give me Your life and Your strength..
so that I can live out Your Acceptance...
Your forgiveness....

無重力的領域New Dimension

2009-02-01T07:12:00.000-08:00

清晨在夢中看見一幅景象...
自己與一群教會兄弟姐妹
在一個大工廠裡受一種訓練...
太空人的訓練....
學習如何進入"外太空"....
In dreaming I saw a scene...
I and many church brothers and sisters is in the process of being trained to enter into space... like spaceman learning how to enter into space...

主啊 !這是什麼意思 ?
我覺得主在說...
要準備好進入一個無重力的領域...
聖靈要帶你們進入這個領域 !
Oh Lord, what does this mean?
I feel God is saying...
Get ready to enter into space dimension...
which is free and no pressure....
Holy Spirit is taking you there!

是的!主 !
昨晚為一位剛信主的姐妹禱告...
一陣子都沒什麼反應...
但當一句話浮現在我心裡...
我憑著信心把那句話禱告出來...
立刻....她流下眼淚...
會後她說...
你們怎麼那麼厲害...
都知道我心裡在想什麼!
Yes.. Lord!
I remember we prayed for a new believer last night...
For a while she felt nothing...
And then a word of knowledge came,
in faith I prayed out that....
Immediately tears running down....
She talked to me afterwards...
How come you guys know what I was thinking....

哈利路亞 ! 這樣的服事好輕省...好有趣...
聖靈要帶我們進入這無重力的服事 !
Yes.... 準備好....更多更多進入這領域中....
Hallelujah! How wonderful to serve like this...
free... no pressure... fruitful...
Yes... More... Get ready ...
Holy Spirit is training us to enter into this dimension!

神知道你在那裡God Knows Where You Are

2009-01-30T05:56:00.000-08:00

清晨在床上朦朧中思想一些事...
1. 24小時禱告...要尋找48位以上代禱者...
2.不要獻凡火(利十)...不要自己獻祭...而是要等神的火燒下來... 神先啟動了...我們才能動....
3. 想到神已經在一些人身上啟動了24小時禱告的負擔...主啊 !何時我們要開始呢?
Early in the morning... still half sleep...
I thought about 2 things
1. 24 hours prayer center... seek 48 and up intercessors...
2. Do not take "our own censers... put fire..."(Lev.10:1)
I need to wait for God's fire, not my own fire....
3.But God has been firing some peoples in church...
Oh Lord! when should we start?

朦朧中夢見一幅景象...
好像Google Earth 之圖...
從上空中看到房子街道...
一個箭頭從空中指下來...
細看那箭頭之處...
清清楚楚看見...正是我家的位置...
然後神說了一句話...
Suddenly I saw a piture in my dream..
Some houses and streets...
(Just like Google Earth)
one arrow point from the sky...
I saw the arrow point at one house...
It's my house...clearly...
Then God said...

"孩子, 我知道你在那裡!"
"My Child, I know exactly where you are"

我感受到一股平安踴自心頭...
我也感受到要從我們家開始...
一齊禱告! 然後...一家一家...
I felt peace flowing out from within
I felt that God wants to start from this house...
Pray together... then ... one by one...

主啊 ! 是的, 祢知道...祢也揀選...呼召!
我在這裡...祢知道 !
Oh Lord.... Yes... You know me...
You have chosen and called....
I am here... You know exactly where I am...

信心的一步Step of Faith

2009-01-29T09:33:00.000-08:00

DNA Group 差遣行動終於要開始了
可是還看不見果子...突破...
這兩天一直為這事問神...
神說...
踏出信心的那一步就是突破的開始 !
相信我....
出於我的... 不能妥協...我終要成就 !
DNA sending out will start soon...
but God... I don't see the fruit and breakthrough yet...
God said....
Step out in faith is the beginning of the breakthrough...
Just trust Me... No compromise...
and I will fulfill it!

Yes.... Lord!
I will step out with a group of peoples
this week... on Sat. morning....
Oh! Lord! I believe in Your faithfulness!
是的主 !
這週六就要與一群門徒跨出信心的地第一步
我相信祢的信實 !!!

信靠我 Trust Me

2009-01-28T07:26:00.000-08:00

清晨四點就睡不著...
對某些人的屬靈狀況非常擔憂...
為他們禱告時...但仍然憂心重重...
I couldn't sleep at 4am...worried about
some peoples' spiritual situation...
I prayed and prayed... but still very troubled...

我覺得好累好累...5點鐘我回去睡覺...
仍然睡不著...朦朧中...
有微小的聲音說... 信靠我...
他們是我的羊...把他們交給我...
你不是才教導大家...
要進入我的安息嗎 ?
they are good...and will be better...
(他們是好的...而且會更好...愈來愈好...)
信靠我, 將他們交給我...
I felt so tired... went back to bed at 5
but still not able to sleep...
while I am half-sleep half wake...
I heard the small voice inside...
Trust Me... They are my sheep...
Just entrust them to Me...
Didn't you just preach on "Entering into My Rest"?
They are good... and will be better...
Just entrust them to Me...

突然間我覺得卸下重擔...
我也開始看到他們生命中的"beauty"...
哈利路亞 !
Suddenly I felt worry free...
and I started to see the beauty in their life
Hallujah!

微小的聲音Soft Voice

2009-01-27T06:54:00.000-08:00

這兩天, 神賜下一個大紅包
(Happy C New Year中國新年快樂)
五個多月以來, 我一直要買一個東西
我找啊找...總是找不到合適的...
今天, 終於買到了...
God gave me a big "Red Present" yesterday!
saying, Happy Chinese New Year...
I have been searching to buy one thing
I have searched for 5 months...
not finding it... Now... God gives it...

回顧整個過程, 有許多聖靈的提醒...
1. 把這事帶到主面求問神...
聖靈一直提醒我...
所求的事不能大過於耶穌
(聽主聲音很重要的原則)
所以能一直保持沒有重擔...
不管結果如何都能感恩...喜樂...
Thinking back the whole process...
Many times... God spoke with soft voice...
1. When I asked the Lord about this,
God taught me how to fix my eyes on Him...
Whatever I ask should not "bigger" than Him...(very important in hearing God's voice)
That's why I can be "burden-free"
Whatever the result is,
I can always be thanksful and joyful...

2. 有給人的, 就有給你的...
過程中我們其實蠻需要錢的...
但有兩次...我們憑著信心...
幫助了一個有急需傳道人跟一個姊妹
聖靈在心中微小的聲音是...
有給人的, 就有給你的...
我會加倍補足你的....
2. In the process, we need "money"...
but twice we practiced generosity by faith
helped 2 persons in their finacial need..
And I remember God said softly....
Give it... and you will be given...

3. 昨天買成以前, 聖靈又以微小的聲音提醒...
出門去報稅以前, 我本來還拿著許多資料...
想說我辦完事再去找一找有沒有適合的...
但裡面那微小的聲音說...
把資料放下來...
我憑著信心放下來...
結果在途中姐姐就來電說...
新年快樂....買成了!!!
3. Yesterday we were going to clergy tax...
I brought a lot of paper... thinking...
I am going to search again after taxing...
And I heard the soft voice again...
put down those paper...
This time you should get it....
I obeyed the soft voice...
and on the way to taxing,
My sister called.... Congradulation,
Happy New Year.... You got it....

哈利路亞!!神真是信實的...
聖靈真好 !!!
Hallelujah... God is so faithful...
Holy Spirit, You are so GOOD!!!

十誡10 Commandments

2009-01-23T07:18:00.000-08:00

這兩天一直在默想十誡...
我發現其中有豐富的祝福
今晨醒來時,
神更進一步啟示了前四誡...
特別是第四誡....神說...
Meditating on 10 commandants...
I have found incredible richness in it.
This morning while waking up,
God revealed to me especially about the 4th...

守安息日是"你心有沒有安息"...
是"進入我的安息"...
我的安息是 "夠了...完全了...甚好了..."
所以帶著"不夠...不夠好..."的心來過日子
甚至是來守安息日...
你會沒有安息..
Sabbath is about "have rest in your heart"
is about "enter into My rest"
and My rest is ...
"Enough... Perfect..Very Good"...
So... if people live with attitude of
"never good enough"...
even when they come to worship on Sunday,
they are not entering into My rest......

我回想...主曾說...
"更多"不等於"不夠好"
"不夠好"使我們活在負面定罪中
永遠不夠...永遠不滿意...不快樂...
所以必須"自己作"更多才會好一點...
但還是"不夠...永遠不夠..."
"更多"卻是神的豐富吸引我...
使我積極...渴慕...追求....
是更多"讓神來作...神來說..."
而且神所作在我身上...所供應我的...
夠好...很好...哈利路亞...我讚美...我感謝...
I remember God once said...
"More" doesnt' mean "not good enough"
"Not Good Enough" brings you down...
negative... feeling condemned...
Because of that attitude, I need to
"do more" so that I feel "better"... but
still... "not good... never good enough" ...
"More" means God's rich glory attracks me...
In Him there is always "more" for me.
That hope gives me hunger... thirst... to
pursue Him... with love, joy...in the process...
All I need to "do" is not "myself-doing",
but wait upon Him...
whatever God does... says... is GOOD...
I can only "inherit"...
give thanks.. praise Him...Hallelujah!!!

我發現自己以前帶著這種心態服事,
真是不得安息...
我發現, 許多神的百姓
帶著這種心態來敬拜神...
我不夠好...
我需要再多"作"一點給神...
想到這裡, 我感受到主的"憂傷"
感受到主要我去告訴祂的百姓這信息..
(請代禱者代禱...)
I recall how I served with that attitude...
no rest on the resting day-Sunday.
I think of God's people... so many of them
worship Him with that attitude...
and found no rest in their life
Thinking of this, I feel God's "sadness"...
and feeling that God wants me to
deliver this message to His people...
(Intercessors, Please pray for this...)

主啊!憐憫恩待我們...
救我們能進入祢的安息!!!
Oh Lord, have mercy on us,
deliver us and take us into Your Rest!

根基 Foundation

2009-01-22T06:34:00.000-08:00

這兩天心中一直在呼喊...
神啊 ! 給我們一個突破...
我們的DNA living...
特別是A(愛靈魂的使命)的部份
There is one cry in my heart these days ...
God! Give us a breakthrough...
Our DNA living...
especially on A(Apostolic Mission)

今晨主再次提醒我...
別急別急.... 看看耶穌的人生...
The Lord reminded me this morning...
No hurry... Look at the Life of Jesus...

想想看...
耶穌12歲時已經勝過當時的"聖經權威"
他可以開始出來爆炸性的服事...
為何他還要等到30歲呢?
Think about this...
Jesus was better than a "Bible Scholar"
when he was 12 years old...
Why didn't He start His "breakthrough" ministry then?
Why waited until 30?

我相信主在這些日子以來...
一直在提醒我與教會...
"根基根基根基...
更多安靜親近我...
更多盡職在家庭中...
更多享受渴慕我的同在...我的話語...
突破性的時候會自然到來...."
I feel God keeps reminding me these days...
FOUNDATION!FOUNDATION!FOUNDATION!
Be still and draw nearer to Me...
More responsible in your family life...
Desire and enjoy more ...
more of My Presence... My Word... then
the breakthrough will come... naturally...

是的.. 主 ! 幫助我更多更深建造根基..
自己的生活...教會的...
Yes... Lord...
Help me to build this foundation
deeper...more solid Foundation...
in my own life... in church life...

沒有妥協 No Compromise

2009-01-21T06:28:00.000-08:00

讀到出埃及十24~26...
法老就召摩西來，說：「你們去事奉耶和華；只是你們的羊群牛群要留下；你們的婦人孩子可以和你們同去。」
摩西說：「......我們的牲畜也要帶去，連一蹄也不留下；因為我們要從其中取出來，事奉耶和華我們的神....

神對我說,
當你確定我的旨意與呼召時...
沒有妥協 !

然後, 出埃及十二31,32....
夜間，法老召了摩西、亞倫來，說：「起來！連你們帶以色列人，從我民中出去，依你們所說的，去事奉耶和華吧!也依你們所說的，連羊群牛群帶著走吧！並要為我祝福。」

我想到門徒的呼召...
使萬民做主門徒的差遣....
培養主的生命元素DNA living...
是的, 主啊 !不能有一點的妥協...

當然, 在過程中,
要學習如何安全的轉換跑道...
安全第一...適當的時機...
加速前進...
不是一人蛇行前進(會被警察開罰單)
而是一群人...車隊...
才能行成運動...

但是無論如何...No Compromise!!!
我相信, 出於祢的...終必成就!
哈利路亞!

看到人的美See Beauty in people

2009-01-20T07:29:00.000-08:00

I try to imagine.. I try to look...
while waiting upon the Lord
When I was staring at my computer,
Many beautiful scenes appeared...
one after another...
安靜時試著想像...看...
當我看著電腦螢幕時..
一幅接一幅美麗的圖畫出現眼前...

But I said to the Lord,
these are all scenaries...
I want to see peoples...
they are the ones you care, right ?
Then I heard in the Spirit, the Lord said...
但我對主說... 這些都是圖畫...
我想看的是人...
他們才是祢所在意的...不是嗎 ?
這時...在靈裡我感受到主在說...

Can't you see the beauty in peoples?
They are created by Me... especially
when they are created again in Christ...
I want you to learn to see the beauty in them...
你能看見人生命中的"美"嗎?
我創造了他們...
特別是當他們在基督裡重新被造時...
你要學習更多看到他們的美麗!

Yes! Lord... I am willing ...
Help me to see that...
because many times...
when I see peoples doing bad things...
especially when they hurt me...
I have tendancy to say in my heart...
"You guys are ugly!!!"
Oh Lord, I repent....
Give me a new sight from You...
to see people's beauty more...
主啊! 我願意...幫助我學習這功課..
許多時候當我看到人的短處...
特別是當他們傷害到我時,
我心中常會有個想衝口而出的話
"you guys are ugly"你們好醜陋呃 !
主啊....如今我悔改...
求你幫助我, 給我一個新的眼光,
看到他們的"美麗"....

小弟五十大壽 My Brother's 50

2009-01-19T05:48:00.000-08:00

最年輕的小弟50歲了...
那代表我們全家8兄弟姐妹都...
難怪他說神給他的兩句話是...
可怕 !!!

唱完"一世人跟隨祢"...
"祢是我的上帝"
他久久不能自已...
然後....有感而發的說了一席話

話中提及聖經中的四活物(人獅牛鷹)...
他一直覺得...
我比較像四活物中的"牛"...
他自己比較像四活物中的"鷹"...

的確, 小弟聰明靈活...自由瀟灑...
凡事有遠見...看得準...活得自在...
像鷹...

我這人比較吃苦耐勞...
連吃草也能津津有味...反芻不已...
(當然, 也蠻有一點牛脾氣...)
像牛...

今晨, 我又發揮牛的反芻本性...
默想這段經文(以西結一章/啟示錄四)
我感受到神似乎在說...
"孩子...
我喜悅你有"牛"的僕人性格...
你也要有"獅"的王者風範...
又要有"鷹"眼光與自由...乘風飛翔...
你若願意成為一個活在我面前的"人"
那就要活在我的靈裡面...
靈往那裡去, 你就往那裡去...."

的確...這四活物象徵
活在神面前的人...
不能只作牛...只作獅...只作鷹...
而是像牛像獅又像鷹....
主耶穌啊 ! 猶大的獅子...萬王之王...
你卻降卑成為僕人...來服事人...
但作為僕人, 你謙卑而不賤...
一點不損你王者的風範光彩....
你更是活在聖靈的充滿引導中
只做父所要你作的...
在對的時機...作對的事情...
世界任何環境...人的話語...人情...
都不能影響你...捆綁你...
乘著聖靈的風
就連地心引力都不能困住你...
何等"鷹"武..."鷹"姿...WOW....

Wow.... 主啊! 我渴慕這樣的人生...
我渴慕這樣的性情...
聖靈啊 ! 我願活在你裡面...
乘風與父遨翔...
謙卑跟隨主服事人...
與主一同做王掌權...

圖象式的聽見See Image and Hear

2009-01-18T07:01:00.000-08:00

This weekend when Mark Virkler was talking about hearing God's voice through image/vision/dream, God reminded me that in the past several incidents when my life was transformed through image/vision....
這週末當Mark Virkler 談到
透過圖象來聽神聲音時
神不斷提醒我過去好幾個"生命轉變"的時刻...
都是因為"看到而聽到"

1. I accepted the Lord when I saw a vision
of Jesus hanging on the cross before me...
(I was in a retreat....alone lying on bed
while other peoples were in the meeting)
And when I saw that vision, I am convinced
that Jesus died to pay my sin... I heard that
for 6 months but never believed that...
1. 15歲時接受耶穌...是因為冬令會中
獨自躺在床上時... 突然間看到一個異象...
耶穌掛在十字架上...
在這之前聽了好久耶穌為罪人死的道理...
從來不覺得跟自己有何關係...
但當我看到這異象時...我就馬上知道
那是為了我的罪... 我就馬上認罪悔改....

2. I didn't know what "incarnation" means
until I saw 2 basketballers side by side
a standard one and a small one(for kids).
When I "saw" that... I "heard" God's voice...
I understood what incarnation mean.
I went back and appolized to my wife
for being inconsiderate in many ways...
for being unsensitive to her feeling....
2. 在步行禱告中看見一個場景...
兩個籃球架並排在一起
我才真正了解"道成肉身" 的意義...
當我看見這場景...
"體貼" 兩個字進入我心中
我聽見神的聲音了...我明白了...
我回到家裡跟太太認錯...
以前我不會體貼...
不會進入她的感覺中... 現今
我會學習傾聽她話語中的感受...

3. Another incident
(see yesterday post)
另一件"看到就聽到"的經歷
(請看昨天的post)

Now... I am convinced that
I can hear God's voice more clearly
through image after this weekend.
Hallelujah... I will IMAGINE more...
I will LOOK more...
Lord, Give me Your vision...
more... more...
如今我確信...
我可以透過圖象...想像...異象異夢...
更清楚地聽到神的聲音....
哈利路亞 ! 我要更多去想像...觀看...
主啊 !給我祢的異象...異夢...更多更多!!!

別限制自己Do Not Limit Yourself

2009-01-17T05:16:00.000-08:00

在"不要限制自己"的印象中醒來...
Waking up with an impression,
Don't limit yourself...

以往總是想...
自己是一個＂聽＂的人（音樂家嘛）
比較不是＂visual person"（圖像式的人）
所以在聽神聲音時比較傾向於＂聽＂
但昨晚在傾聽神聲音特會中
主再次藉著Mark Virkler 提醒我...
"以看異象來聽神聲音＂
I used to think about myself...
more audio than visual...(I am a musician)
But God reminded me in last night
conference through Mark last night...
"Look for a Vision"... to hear His voice

今晨主進一步提醒我...
是, 你要使用我所已經給你的---
（音樂家"聽"的能力）
但不要限制自己...　
我也藉著＂圖象＂向你說話...
This morning God continues....
"Yes, use "audio" gift that I give you...
but don't limit yourself on that...
I will give you "vision" too..."

神讓我想起20多年前...
當我因為失戀去讀約伯記時...
讀完後真的不懂...
為何神不告訴約伯他受苦的原因...
（因此也不懂自己為何受苦）
有一天開車上Freeway時,
＂看＂到眼前那一片山....
突然間神的話臨到...
＂你看這山是誰的?"
主啊!是祢的...
"如果全地都是我的...
要我給你一個太太...簡單嗎 ?"
簡單....
＂為何我現在不給你呢?"
..............
就這樣, 神的話臨到....
我剎那間明白了約伯記中的話...
也明白了神為何容許這苦難臨到自己..
Immediately I thought of 1 thing
happened 20 years ago...
When I read Job because of
my "suffering of losing girl friend"...
I didn't understand the book of Job at all...
Why didn't God tell Job "why he suffered"
(Why God allowed this suffering on me?)
But one day when I drove upto freeway...
I "saw" the mountain before me....
to make a long story short...
God's word flew out of my thought....
A conversation happened between God & me
And suddenly I got it... I understood....

神讓我想起....
是當我＂看到"時...我就＂聽到＂....
神已經作了...祂還要更多更多的作...
是的...昨天主要我＂更積極地要更多＂
今天, 我要說....
主啊 !　給我看更多異象! 哈利路亞 !
God showed me...
When I "see"... I "hear"
He did it before... and He will do it more....
Yesterday, God said "more aggressive"
Today I will say... Yes... more ...
Lord, give me more "vision".... Hallelujah!

積極一點 More aggressive

2009-01-16T05:26:00.000-08:00

While waking up, I got an impression....
A little bit more aggressive, then
you will not only "circling" your life
but "live" your life well...
you will not only surviving,
but feeling ALIVE !
今晨醒過來時的印象是...
積極一點, 就不會"繞圈子"生活
而是"有目標地向前生活"...
不僅是"還活著"...而是"生龍活虎"!

I asked the Lord ...
In which area I should more aggressive?
The Lord reminded me...
in "pursuing me"...
in "praying for non-believer"
in "loving unloveable people".....
等候神時問神說在那一方面要積極一點
主提醒我...要
更積極渴慕我
更積極迫切禱告
更積極愛那些批評論斷者...

The Lord also reminds me...
"more" doesn't mean "not good enough" (feeling condemned)
but means "there is always more in Me...
because I am a God of abundance...
And I will give you more
when you desire more...."
主也提醒我,
"多一點"不意味"總是不夠好"(覺得被定罪)
而是說 "在我裡面總是有更多....
因我豐盛的神... 所以
當你積極地渴慕多一點...
我就會賜給你多一點'"

Hallelujah... what a promise....
Lord, help me... guide me...
I will be more aggressively...
wanting more from You....
哈利路亞...何等應許...
主啊! 助我導我...積極地尋求
我要更多更多從祢來的豐盛....

為未信朋友禱告Pray for a unbeliever friend

2009-01-15T06:01:00.000-08:00

今晨為一位未信朋友禱告時,
想起一幅笑死我的圖畫...

但使我驚奇的是...
主好像很認真...
While praying for a non-Christian friend,
God reminded me of this picture which
says... Believing in Jesus, You will have
a "Vietnamese Bride"(instead of "eternity")
What amazes me is....
God seems to be pretty serious about that....

每次跟這位朋友接觸,
就是聽他說及"交女友"的需要與失敗...
藉著這幅圖畫, 神好像在說...
那就是他最現實的需要...
雖然知道他最需要的是"耶穌"
可是要從他的"現實需要"著手...切入...
Everytime when I am with this person
he mentions his need and failure
in "relationship" with girl.
I think God is trying to remind me...
That is his "immediate... felt" need.
Even though I know what he really need is Jesus,
but we need to start with his immediate need...
Try to help him in this area....

主啊! 救救我....如何做呢 ?
Oh Lord, help..... show me how!

安靜 Be Still

2009-01-13T05:22:00.000-08:00

DNA之D 就是要操練聽神的聲音
而操練聽神的聲音有四個步驟
D (Divine Truth) is to hea God's voice
there are 4 Steps for Hearing God's Voice

1. 安靜 Be Still
2. 注目耶穌 Focus on Jesus
3. 聖靈的水流 Spontaneous Thought
4. 寫下來印證 Write it down to be comfirmed

許多人反應第一個步驟(安靜)很難...
自己操練時也發現場
在安靜時常常思緒會繞地球好幾圈
今晨在安靜中主提醒我
要與大家分享一些安靜的秘訣...
Many say the first step(be still) is very hard.
I find that's very true because...
when I try to be still,
all kinds of thoughts fly over my head...
And this morning the Lord reminded me...
Share with people "how" to be still...

安靜的基本動作...some basics to be still
首先要坐得舒服...Sit comfortably...
放鬆... Relax...
深呼吸... deep breath in and out
面帶微笑... Smile... (help you to relax)
打開雙手...手心向上...
Open your hands...upwards...
若是能安靜...If you can be still...
慢慢進入第二步驟... flow into 2nd step
注目耶穌... Focus on Jesus
小聲默念主的名字...whisper God's name...

但往往發現自己無法安靜...
思緒雜亂...心事一件一件浮上心頭...
But when you find your souls not resting...
many thoughts like turmoil inside...
此時你可以 Several things you could do
1. 把它們一一寫下來... Write them down...
可以一分鐘處理好的... 馬上處理...
其它的留待以後處理...
Things that you can handle in one minute....
do it right away....
Tell youself that you will handle others later

2. 當你手心向上時... hands facing upwards...
把浮上心頭的心事...一件一件交給主...
Give thoughts in your minds to the Lord....
輕聲向主說...主啊 ! 交給你...
saying to Him.... Lord, I give this to You
主啊...你掌權....... You are in control...

此時我常發現... Gradually... I feel....
我的手開始微麻...Hands feeling num
我感受到主的同在...God's presence
主的平安與溫暖進入心中 peace...
all over... come into my heart..
覺得四周的空氣好溫暖
心中祥和...愛...甜蜜開始充滿...
even the air is warm... so peaceful...
Love... Sweetness...warms my heart....

鼓勵你....試試看....神真是美好...
Just want to encourage you...
try it... God is so Good.....

具體的感動 Specific Reminder

2009-01-12T06:03:00.000-08:00

過了一個Long weekend,
本想好好睡一覺...到自然醒...
沒想到還是4點半就醒過來...
跟主賴床一陣...主啊!讓我多睡點嘛..
迷迷糊糊又過了半個小時,
一股強烈的感動又叫醒了我...

起來安靜時, 主"具體地"提醒我
今天要完成兩件事...
1. 回信給台灣一個牧者朋友...為他禱告
他的師母因為"聖靈學校"...長期與他不同心...
導至家庭與服事極大的痛苦
主更提醒我...
這就是為何許多人懼怕踏進聖靈的領域的原因
因為有太多負面的見證...
(求主憐憫我們這些DNA的伙伴...
在操練聽主聲音時能活出正面的見證)

2. 今早打球後要去見西區聯禱會的牧者...
一方面談8號法案的事...
一方面邀他們來參加"傾聽神聲音"的特會

感謝主! 操練聽主聲音一陣子...
我都提醒大家從"一般性...關係"來入門
如今, 主開始有"具體"的提醒...
主啊! 祢必與我同行前往...

享受長週末Enjoy Long Weekend

2009-01-10T07:01:00.000-08:00

This weekend is my "long weekend"...
Not for vacation, but for work...
Today I'll be teaching for 8 hours,
then preach 2 sermons at night...
Tomorrow I will preach 2 Sunday sermons
and then teach for 3 hours in the afternoon...
這是我的"長週末"...不是休假...而是工作 !
今天白天要教課8小時...晚上講兩篇道
明早要講兩篇道, 下午再教課3小時..

God reminds me some words....
1. "Enjoy it".... not "endure it" ...
2. Grace is not only "sufficient"...
but "abundant"...
3. "Together"... Let's do great thing
in peoples' life.
神提醒我幾句話...
1. "享受"它...而不是"忍受"它...
2. 恩典不僅夠用, 而且要豐盛滿溢...
3. 讓我們"一起", 來成就"生命"的大事 !

Hallelujah! I will have a "long weekend"
with God and with His children.
哈利路亞! 我要與神和祂所愛的兒女
一齊來享受這個長週末 !

又大又難的事Great & Mighty

2009-01-09T05:40:00.000-08:00

心中很想要完成一件事,
得著一件東西...
當我將這事帶到主面前,
問主...等候主...
卻發現自己無法安靜下來...

為自己無法安靜有點苦惱,
迫切禱告呼求主時...
一句話飄了進來...
"你若求告我,
我就將又大又難的事指示你..."

反覆思考這句話, 我發現...
所謂又大又難的事是...
"生命的煉淨" !
而非世人所看什麼轟轟烈烈的事...

我得承認...當自己愛上某件事物時...,
很容易就迷上...甚至將它看得"比神還大"...
我得承認...此時就不容易安靜等候...
當我呼求神...神似乎對我說...
我要煉淨你...how?
1. 我並不定你的罪... have peace... rejoice...
2. 我要你在這其中學習更多信靠我
3. 連"最愛我"這事也要信靠我...

主啊! 我感謝祢, 因祢恩慈又憐憫...
主啊! 我讚美祢, 因祢定意要煉淨我...
我呼求...我願意...求祢幫助我
"盡心盡性盡意盡力來愛祢"

在愛中渴慕 Thirsty in Love

2009-01-08T07:05:00.000-08:00

清晨神再次提醒 - 在愛中渴慕...
Ｔhis morning God reminds again...
"Be Thirsty in His Love"

推動DNA一年多了,
一方面常喜樂...
一方面心中常有個＂神聖的不滿足＂
深知自己只是嚐到一點點與神連結的滋味,
雖然神＂一點點＂就足以使我心花怒放...
但也深知自己離神＂豐盛的榮耀＂尚遠...
Living and encouraging "DNA" over 1 year,
I feel Joyful as well as "unsatisfied"...
Knowing that I only taste "a little bit" of God
even though "God's little bit" is already so
WONDERFUL.....but I also know that...
I havn't yet fully tasted His "abundant glory"
(maybe I'll never be "fully" until that day)

這樣的渴慕不是出於＂罪惡感＂...
不是出於對自己不滿...
而是出於＂愛的吸引＂
出於對神"極豐盛"有信心...
因為主的愛是主動...積極的..
所以我對祂的渴慕是
帶著一種興奮的悸動...主動...
而不是活在一種被驅策的被動中...
This kind of thirst is not because of "guilt"
not because being "unhappy about myself"
but because of "attrated by love"
because having faith in God's abundant glory
and because His love is always initiative,
therefore I am attracted with "excitement",
is by "I happily want to"....
not "pushed" by "I have to".....

主啊!　我深信
因著你的愛, 你要指示我
"祢的事＂...祢所要我作的事...
今天我要活在這種＂愛的渴慕＂中
dear Lord, I deeply believe...
because of your love, you will show me
"what you want" - what you want me to do
Today, I want to live in your rich glory.

換跑道3 Change Lane 3

2009-01-07T06:31:00.000-08:00

這幾天, 主不斷啟示我"換跑道"的原則
1. 方向對了...但換跑道的目的為要加速前進!
2. 要左顧右看..在"安全"的情況中換跑道
3. 要在對的"時機"加油前進...
4. 要有人跟進...不是獨自一人蛇行前進...
5. 總之, 要行在聖靈中...就能靈巧像蛇...
加速前進 !

God continues to show me
how to "change lane"
1. Your direction is right, now... accelerate!
2. Look around, be safe while changing.
3. Look for "right timing"
4. Take many with you, not moving alone.
5. In general, Keep step with the Spirit, then we will be moving freely and accelerate to reach the goal.

主啊 ! 我的燈需要加油! 祢的油!
Lord, I need fire.... your fire...

換跑道2 Change Lane 2

2009-01-06T06:43:00.000-08:00

清晨等候神時, 神提醒....
幾天前"換跑道"的事...
在什麼事上要"換跑道"...
幾件事情浮現在心中...
包括...
個人態度...家裡互動...教會...敬拜教學....
This morning God reminded me...
"Change Lane " again
in what way ...
several things came into my mind
Including ...
personal attitude... family relation pattern...
church and teaching ministry pattern...

現在我慢慢了解這兩種狀況,
1. 有時神每天講"新"的話,
- 當我"聽話"---作了一些改變時...
2. 有時神好幾天講同樣的話...
- 當我"聽而尚未行"的時候, 神就一再提醒....
I gradually understand 2 different situations...
1. God speaks "new" words everyday
because I listen and obey"... right away...
2. God keeps speaking "same" words
because I havn't done some changes ...
that's why continue to reminds me ....

我也慢慢發現,
許多時候神講一句話,
我可以靠這句話活好久好久...
想起來這也是正常...因為
我有許多根深柢固的"慣性動作"需要調整...
I gradually understand...
One Word from God...
I need to learn for long time... because
I am so used to the same life pattern...

主阿! 你是我的神...
我感謝讚美,
因祢必要就我脫離根深柢固的"己"...
進入祢的豐盛
Oh Lord, My God, I praise You because...
You have destined to save me out of "self"
so that I can enter into your "newness".

DNA 之挑戰

2009-01-05T06:19:00.000-08:00

週一清晨, 神提醒我一些推動DNA的難處...

D- 要傾聽神的聲音...難在人"尋求神的心"
詩人曾說, 神從天上垂看, 看有沒有尋求祂的...
結果是..."連一個也沒有" (詩十四2,3)
人的本性是"靠自己"...
通常是在困難中來尋求神幫助...
至於平順時, 神啊 !請你閃一邊去吧!

詩人說, 這樣的人是"愚頑人"(詩十四1)
主啊 ! 救我脫離這愚頑的本性...
學習作智慧人...不斷地...渴慕地...尋求你!

N-恩慈關係的培養 ...難在"人性要面子"
要分享生命中的點點滴滴, 包括失敗掙扎...
要學習將面子釘十字架...
這對華人來講是極大的挑戰 !

主說...
"我是你的榮耀, 因著耶穌, 我稱你為義 !
你要自己的榮耀, 就得不著我的榮耀...
你要外面的榮耀(面子)...就得不著裡面的榮顯 (生命)"

主啊 ! 救我脫離求自己榮耀的本性,
領我進入你的榮耀中!

A- 愛人靈魂的使命...難在"模糊的教會觀"
基督徒因著中教會的聚會...服事...重重複雜的生活圈...
已經耗盡了我們生活的時間精力...
最可怕的是, 我們以為這就是"教會"了
因此很難踏入非基督徒的生活圈子中...

但主啊 ! 你說, "我另外有羊...不是在這圈裡...我必須去..."
主啊 !　求你儆醒我, 帶領我...往祢去的地方去!

與神同行 Walk with God

2009-01-02T08:50:00.000-08:00

2009 要鼓勵全教會一起來速讀聖經
除了自己每天靈修禱告之外
鼓勵大家每個星期有1~2個小時安靜坐下來
從創世記開始...速讀聖經
一卷一卷的讀...每個主日也配合進度
找專家以5分鐘時間作每卷書的綜覽

今晨等候神時, 神提醒我要"教練兼球員"
(幾天前的異夢)
我發了一個半小時的時間,
一口氣讀了創世記 1~25章
在速讀中..."與神同行"的意念不斷重覆出現

成功的例子是...
-以諾與神同行
-挪亞與神同行
-亞伯拉罕與神同行...

失敗的例子有...
-始祖亞當墮落之後就躲避與神同行
(耶和華神在園中行走)
-離開神的面, 該隱...拉麥...靠自己保護自己...
-他拉與神同行到半路
(本要去迦南, 走到哈蘭...住下...死在哈蘭)
-羅得本有機會與神同行..卻走向世界...

一句話提醒我... 神說,
"人既屬乎血氣, 我的靈就不永遠住在他裡面.."(創六3)

主啊! 幫助我2009 靠著聖靈, 天天與你同行...

轉換跑道Change Lane

2009-01-01T06:32:00.000-08:00

很奇怪地, 醒過來那一剎那, So wired... while waking up,
一句話臨到... One phrase came...
Change Lane (換跑道) !!! CHANGE LANE

我不明白... I don't understand...
主啊 ! 什麼意思 ? Lord, what does it mean?

等候神時, While waiting upon the Lord,
神提醒我.. God reminds me
你的方向對了 You are on the right direction
但.. .要進入新的跑道
but need to change to the right track
就可以加速前進 so that you can accelerate!
新年快樂... so... Happy New Year!
歡迎進入"我的新" welcome to My "newness"

1. 新的焦點 (見前天"重新定焦") New focus...
調整自己的生活... Adjust more your lifestyle
更多進入"非基督徒"的生活圈中...
more involved in non-Xns life

2. 更多捨"己", 進入"神超自然的豐盛中"
More laying down "self"... so that you can
enter into "God's extra-ordinary abundance"

感謝讚美神 ! 祂提醒並印證了祂前兩天的話 !
Hallelujah! He reminds and confirms what He said in last 2 days!

耶穌哭了Jesus wept

2008-12-31T04:41:00.000-08:00

清晨四點在一句話中醒來 ... 耶穌哭了...
我起來禱告...問主說, 主啊! 今天是今年最後一天, 為何是這句話?
等候神時, 感覺到主在提醒我兩個原因...
我重讀了約翰11章..主印證了這兩個原因...

1. 主因著罪所帶來的結果憂傷...
這罪不是因為"死"...而是因著"己"所帶來的苦果...
"己"是根深柢固的"人性"..
就像馬大... 馬利亞...眾人都因拉撒路的死憂傷不已...
這本是很自然的事...幾乎是無法改變的人性...
但也因著這自然無法改變的"己"...
人往往很難很難進入神"超自然的豐盛中"

2008 就要過了...
我看到自己的"己"仍攔阻自己進入神的豐盛中...
主啊!救我更多脫離這"己=自然的人性"...
主啊!我信, 但我信不足...
引導我更多進入祢那"超自然的豐盛中"

2. 主為所愛的人憂傷而憂傷...
馬利亞是主所愛...也是愛主的人...
當主看到她哀哭...主感受她的哀傷...
主也哭了...

2008 就要過了...
主安慰我說...
我知道你許多時候為教會的光景憂傷...
(教會仍因許多的"己"未能更多進入我主"超自然的豐盛中"...)
主說...我知道...我感受到...
但只要你信...就要看見我的榮耀....

主啊! 願祢的愛吸引我們更多地捨己...進入祢榮耀的豐盛中
主啊! 也但願我們這不足的信望愛也能觸動祢的心......

謙卑

2008-12-30T21:24:00.001-08:00

主今天提醒我要謙卑。追求謙卑，不是因為謙卑是美德，而是因為驕傲蒙蔽了真實的情形，謙卑使人看到真相。我需要謙卑，不是因為要增加一個美德，而是要活在「真實」中。真相是，事情並不在我的掌控之中，我的判斷並不一定是正確判斷，我的想法未必是真的…。謙卑使我看到自己的限制，謙卑使我依靠那真正的掌權者，謙卑使我放下掌控的欲望和伴隨的焦慮，謙卑使我依靠神，沉浸在真正的平安中。

來美國這三年，神似乎在教我一件事：不要依靠過去的成功，也不要以過去為傲。來美國前，我自以為帶著台大團契成功的經驗，要在這複製，但三年下來卻是一點成果都沒有。神在教導我，不要依靠過去，單單依靠祂。

重新定焦 Refocus

2008-12-29T08:36:00.000-08:00

為一些未信主朋友禱告時,
神問我...
是否願意更多進入他們的生活圈子中...
主!啊! 我願意 ...
神又問我...
你生命中的焦點在那裡?
在少數基督徒...或在多數非基督徒中?

以台灣為例...4%已信主的人
96%未信主的人...
很明顯的, 主的焦點在那裡 !!!

這樣說並不是說基督徒不重要,
然而, 基督徒...甚至我自己身為牧者...
往往焦點不對...需要重新定焦...

主啊! 幫助我...幫助我們...
主說...
要聚集一些願意重新定焦的基督門徒...
更多的等候禱告....
萬軍之耶和華的熱心必要成就這事...
Hallelujah!

與太太DNA (with Rachel)

2008-12-26T06:33:00.000-08:00

昨天早上聖誕節早上....
起床時與太太賴在床上聊了一兩個小時...
一方面她幫我set up facebook...期望我可以更好的networking
一方面聊了一年來生活的點點滴滴... 好久沒有聊得這麼痛快了

心中一方面充滿感恩, 一方面期望新年有新突破...
一年來因著學習過DNA的生活
我感受到今年來的服事更加 joyful... peaceful...
I really enjoy the ministry much more than before...
因為學習"如何生活就如何服事"...服事變得更輕省...

美心在每天一小時的prayer walk 當中一方面解壓, 一方面親近神...
身心靈更加地健康...好多人說她好年輕...
有一次兒子在教會聚會時, 她去看望他們,
兒子的朋友竟然問兒子說....who is that? your friend?
Wow! 讓她高興了好幾天, 連睡覺都會笑....

當然, 我們還是感受到自己在DNA生活中有一些不足
特別是D的方面, 更需要全心全意進入與神親密的關係中
我們覺得如果能親密到"神的靈在那裡, 我們就在那裡"
那麼服事一定會更有效...

舉例來說, 在A的部份, 我們都學習去關心一些未信主的朋友
但前天送CD去給小陳時...他不在...
送Christmas Dinner 去給 Lau Dai時, 撲了空...因他還在工作...
透過這些事, 我覺得神還在提醒...還在呼召...
"更多來親近我, 我就將隱密的事指示你..."

"主啊 ! 幫助我們更多地親近...更深地親密..."
這是我們明年的禱告與目標...

生曰快樂！耶穌Happy Birthday! my Jesus

2008-12-25T07:23:00.000-08:00

今天的A行動Today's "A" Action

2008-12-24T06:11:00.000-08:00

"A" means Apostolic Mission...是"愛人靈魂的使命"

清晨主溫柔地提醒... This morning the Lord gently said,

跟未信主朋友的互動為何常會延遲呢 ?
因為他們不是你心中的"priority"(優先)!
本打算送一點聖誕禮物過去,
就因為與基督徒的約會...聚會....開會...而延遲!
Why often delay your "A"? Because...
they(non-believers) often are not your priority...
that's why "A" is oftened delayed because of other Xns' activities...

主啊! 幫助我調整我心中的priority...
因為祢說,
"我另外有羊, 不是這圈裡的; 我必須領他們來..."
Lord! Help me to adjust my priority in my heart, because You say...
"I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen.
I must bring them also...."

Yes... Lord! 今天, 就是今天....不是明天... today...not tomorrow...
今天早日打完球, 我要送CD給小陳...
This morning after tennis, send a CD to...
今天傍晚, 我要call Steve, 問他有沒有回家過聖誕...
this evening before dinner, call Steve....
還有...要給老戴送個聖誕便當過去....
send Lau Dai a Xmas dinner...

主啊! 幫助我學習"今天"的功課... Lord, help me to learn "Today"...
DNA 夥伴們, 請 Hold me Accountable for this.... my DNA friends...
明天...或今晚遇到我的時候, 問問我有沒有完成這"具體行動"
Please ask me when you see me, have I accomplished Todays' A?

Thank you ... God bless... and Merry Christmas...

分享你的享受share what you enjoy

2008-12-23T06:00:00.000-08:00

2008 是好"享受"的一年, I really enjoy my 2008
大部份的時間 Most of time ..just like
就如一對熱戀中的青年所說, someone in love once said,
到那裡都想笑 ! Just can't stop smiling...

今晨主的靈感動我說... This morning I felt the Spirit saying,
享受我的愛, 分享我的愛.. Enjoy my love, and share my love
享受我所給的人生, Enjoy the life that I give to you
分享你的人生..... then share your life...

想起平時接觸的未信朋友, Thinking of some non-believer friends,
為他們禱告... 是的,主 ! Praying for them... Yes, my Lord,
今天, 這個禮拜...聖誕...新年...Today..This week...Christmas...
我會去送點禮物...一個電話... New Year.... I will go...
一籃水果...一個CD... a phone call... a fruit basket... a music CD...
我會去分享你的愛...今天 I will share your love... Today!

夢中的D - Divine Truth in Dream

2008-12-21T07:01:00.000-08:00

這兩天稍微累一點, 沒能在清早起來親近神...
但神卻透過兩個夢來說話...好清楚的夢...

夢中, 我住在台灣彰化的一個營地...
聚會結束後...我下到鄉下要去找一個 Cien-Gon 廟...
找來找去找不到...我打電話問人...Where is Cien-Gon 廟...
很奇怪的事...我都是用英文問....口中反覆問著... Cien-Gon 廟...
但問來問去也問不到...
正吶悶...忽然很清楚的一句話進來...

你要找的不是Cien-Gon (成功)...而是"愛"...
當你住在"愛"裡面, 你已經住在"成功"裡面了

第二個夢是...
夢中一位宣教士告訴我...
某人因我有點殘障的大兒子信主了...
某某人又因我大兒子信仰得造就了...
然後她很清楚地問我...
"你成功了嗎?"
我也很確定地回答了她...成功了... Because
I love him... very much...

醒來, 我知道神在這兩個夢中講同樣話...
"住在愛中, 就是成功!"

God is Love... let's live in His Love...

孤單的心 A lonely heart

2008-12-19T10:24:00.000-08:00

昨天和一個朋友碰面，約他一起讀聖經。碰面前，我問神，有沒有什麼話語是要給他的？在等候的時候，有一個問題浮上心中，我很好奇，這個朋友對信仰也沒有很認真，為甚麼每次約他讀聖經，他都會來？

當我遇到他時，就問他每次來是有在期待什麼嗎？他的回答讓我很驚訝：「當然有阿！」「那是什麼？」「我期待你都會在這等我。」「什麼？」我以為自己聽錯了。他又說了一遍：「我期待有人在這等我，從小到大，沒有人在等我。」一句話，道盡他的孤單和辛酸。原來神要我看到是，在這世界上有這麼多孤單的人，等著人們去找他們。

要收的莊稼多，但作工的人少，所以當求莊稼的主，打發工人去收莊稼。

異夢的解釋 Interpretation of a dream

2008-12-19T06:36:00.000-08:00

神也透過異夢向我們說話...
今晨醒來時有一夢...
夢中我正宴請一群人, 一個一個為他們擺桌椅...餐具...並斟酒...
等一切就蓄...最後一句話...有一人說...
還有你自己, 教練兼球員....
之後就醒來...

等候神時問神這夢何意...
領受如此...

It's time ...
在教會中要尋找...聚集願意過DNA living 的人,
一起慶祝...彼此鼓勵...出發...
自己要教練兼球員
要有DNA 的生活榜樣...並且
教練最主要的任務就是要鼓勵...然後,
擺對每一個人對的位子...
發揮每個人不同的特質...

在你同在中醒來 Wake up in Your Presence

2008-12-18T05:34:00.000-08:00

早上醒來時, 一首詩歌迴響在心裡...

你永遠在我生命中
伴我春夏和秋冬....
Oh 我仰望你 Oh 我等候你
我向你歡唱愛的詩歌
你信實永不改變
我享受在你永恆懷抱中
你永不離開我的身旁...
(你的身旁- 約書亞樂團-參見 http://www.im.tv/vlog/personal/1158810/2082029)

一股好幸福的感受...深深印在心頭...
我的主我的神...祢對我真好 !
一年來, 祢是這樣陪伴我...春夏秋冬...

等候神時, 心中呢喃不已...主啊! 愛你...愛你...愛你...
心中出現一個詞句..
向你千呼萬喚... 愛你...愛你...愛你...
只因祢一次為我降生 ...一次為我釘死...
一次為我復活...一次為我升天...
只為"永遠"與我同在...
Oh God... my Father, my Lord, my Spirit...
How I love you....

今晨, 我知道主要我在這聖誕主日要講的信息了 ...
"以馬內利---神與我們同在".... hahaha....hallelujah!

異象的解釋 Interpretation of vision

2008-12-17T08:55:00.000-08:00

異象是神向我們說話的方式之一,
但異象的解釋卻往往因人而異...
個人覺得解釋異象務要從"聖經原則"開始,
不要一下子就往"特定的人事物"去解釋, 免得造成困擾...

舉例來說...有一個牧者禱告時, 看到一個異象...
在教會中, 看到一張很長的桌子, 桌上擺滿很多食物..
其中一半是色香味俱全的好菜...另一半是爛臭的食物...
另人不解的是, 大家放著好菜不吃, 卻一直吃那些爛菜....

聽了這個異象, 我心中一直問神要如何解釋這異象呢 ?
今晨我感受神要我分享如何從"聖經原則"來解釋這異象...

神為我們擺上色香味俱全的健康好菜,
領受神的好菜, 我們就健康成長..
然而撒但卻誘惑我們去吃那些爛菜...
領受的是魔鬼的爛菜...教會就不健康..生病...

那麼, 神的好菜是什麼呢 ? 魔鬼的爛菜又是什麼呢 ?
個人以為...
當我們看一個人或一件事, 總是看到正面...積極面...
思念優點...記念優點... 又學習去行...
賜平安的神就與我們同在 (腓四8~9) ....這就是吃好菜 !

反之, 若是我們老是看著負面...
看著一個人的缺點, 思念他的缺點, 數落他的缺點...
這就如吃爛菜一樣, 會讓我們的身心靈生病....

也許你有不同的解釋...但無論如何解釋,
務要合乎聖經原則...不是嗎 ?

信息反應生命Message reflecting living

2008-12-16T08:51:00.000-08:00

從休士頓回來....睡睡睡.... 一直睡....
Wow... what a wonderful morning....

回想這個trip... 問神有什麼話要對我說...
一個意念馬上飄進來...

休士頓同工告訴我...
牧師, 三年前你回來時我們都覺得
那時你的信息好像"退步了"
這一次卻不一樣....very powerful....

這個comment 讓我想起...
三年前的生活...忙祿服事與神卻不是很親近
今年回來, 我只是分享自己從去年來的j如何操練門徒生活..如何親近神...

弟兄姐妹的眼睛真是雪亮的....傳道人的信息就是生命的流露...
所以最重要的不是"台上如何服事", 而是"台下如何生活" !

我怎能忘記你How can I forget you?

2008-12-13T05:08:00.000-08:00

清晨醒來, 享受主的同在..也為這教會禱告...
感受到神好愛好愛這教會...但有點可惜...
因為其中許多人卻感受不到神的愛..
所以神愛得有點傷感...

I woke up ... oh God... how I enjoy your presence...
and I prayed for this church... I felt God loves this church so much... so much...
but feeling a little bit "sad" because many peoples don't feel His love...
I asked God what He wants to say to the church.... Love... I just can't help but love you....

我問神有什麼話要對教會說..."愛...我就是不能不愛你.."
我打開聖經, 想去讀我靈修進度詩篇...但翻到以賽亞書時..
突然間我的眼睛落在這經節...

I opened my bible and wanted to go to my devotion scripture in Psalms...
But my eyes rested on this verse in Isaiah....

錫安說、耶和華離棄了我、主忘記了我。
婦人焉能忘記他吃奶的嬰孩、不憐恤他所生的兒子．即或有忘記的、我卻不忘記你。(49:15)
But Zion said, "The Lord has forsaken me. The Lord has forgotten me"
"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and
have no compassion on the child she has borne?"

我的心思特別落在...."錫安說"...突然間我明白...主知道祂的教會..主知道祂的兒女的心...
但主要對他們說...How can I possibly forget you.... impossible...
我怎麼可能...我怎麼可能忘記..離棄你呢????
我名就是愛...我就是不能停止愛你!

The words "Zion said" caught me.... and suddenly I understood, The Lord really knows his church... knows the heart of His children... and He wants me to say to the church,

"How can I possibly forget you.... impossible... How can I possibly forsake you?" My name is LOVE... I just can't help but love you....

帶過去向前 Bringing the Past Forward

2008-12-12T06:27:00.000-08:00

I am going to Houston (with Rachel & Pam)... my previous church...
I felt God is saying to me... Go and bring the past forward

今晨我們(+師母 + 蓬潔)要去休士頓...我曾經牧養四年的教會...
安靜中感覺神說...去! 帶過去向前 !
(請DNA夥伴們為我們禱告.... Thanks a lot!)

全心全意的安息Rest with All Your Being

2008-12-11T06:50:00.000-08:00

今晨醒來時迷糊中覺得神在說四個字...
"全心全意"
進入D Room 等候神...
一邊咳嗽一邊等候中...(請夥伴們繼續為我的感冒禱告)
God seems to say
我並不是要你"更多...更辛苦地"工作...
而且要你更多...全心全意的安息...

是的, 一般老闆的要求總是...
我要你更多更多的忙碌工作付出...

But My Father God is saying...
我要你更多更多...全心全意的安息...
安息在我的愛中...在我的話語中...
在我的引導中... 在我的同在中...
hahaha... Hallelujah

DNA第二週The second week DNA

2008-12-10T06:33:00.000-08:00

Today we start the second week of Jesus DNA
今天是Jesus DNA部絡格第二週的開始

昨天有一同工分享....他等候神中第一次看見異象...
感謝讚美神~ 我好像看到以"利亞看到的那一巴掌雲"
我感覺到這部落格有一天要開放給所有
願意過DNA living的門徒一起來主持分享...

今晨等候神中神提醒我一年前我開始分等候神時的領受
1. 父愛子, 必將所要作的事指示給他......叫你們希奇 (約五20)
因為有愛,就一定會想跟所愛的人講話...
所講的話, 一定會讓我們希奇...
(因為神的意念/道路高過我們的...)

2. 那麼為什麼我們覺得聽神的聲因很難呢 ?
神在等...等我們真的願意不氣不餒地來尋求祂
凡尋求的, 必要尋見!!!

邀請你一齊來專心一意...不氣不餒地來尋求祂

對了, 如果你對聽神聲音有興趣, 介紹您一本書
How to Hear God's Voice (Mark Virkler)
疾風細語~如何傾聽神聲音 (台福傳播中心出版, 2008)

如何生活就如何服事 Serving based on Living

2008-12-09T08:17:00.000-08:00

昨晚睡了9個小時...哈利路亞!

清晨回到我的D room (我的守望台), 試著安靜...But
一大堆事浮現在心裡- 家人...教會...有情天...
混亂中對主說...
主啊 ! 我只想作你要我作的...

就在此時感受到神甜蜜濃厚的同在...
He said...
"I like it.... I like what you are doing...
我要你更多學習... 怎麼生活就怎麼服事...
所以你服事起來就不會有重擔!

Yes! DNA is a lifestyle... not a meeting..
是的! Dna 重在怎樣生活, 而非怎樣聚會...
有了與神同行的生活方式, 服事自然順暢...

突然間有一個想法...
要跟小孩們一起唱歌...將來有一天可以全家music ministry!

又長又甜美的週末 Long but Sweet Weekend

2008-12-08T19:12:00.000-08:00

哈利路亞 !

有情天10週年三場音樂會 + 同工訓練+ 感恩聚餐 + 兩場講道...

真不能相信自己還活著...而且還活得不錯...
雖然開始有點感冒徵狀...(請代禱...因這週五就要去Houston)
但基本上充滿感恩與喜樂 !

心裡感觸...五味雜陳.. 又高興又傷感 ...

高興是因神不僅恩典夠用而且滿溢,,,
傷感是因這些音樂人朋友飛走了...

小麻雀...阿B(邰正宵)... 蓬潔...德嘉...David... Karen... Stephany... Wendy
還有...Longhair Samuel..Drumer Sarmuil...小陳小胡...
(抱歉...自己教會中的人就不提名了) 真是謝謝您們 !
(我與有氣質的音樂家)
(我太太喜歡跟名星照像)

(最新發覺的singer from Houston)

長週末過了...但神永遠在...

祂的名稱為

昔在 ---音樂會中的話並沒有怎樣預備...
但在台上話語卻綿綿不絕...

今在 - 清晨打球前祂特別給我一段時間散步 ---
and He said nothing but --- I love you... Relax...

以後永在- 感謝讚美....永遠永遠...祢都會在....我身旁

I Miss Them

2008-12-06T07:50:00.000-08:00

This morning when I woke up, I asked God,
do You have special words that you want to say to church
co-workers?
今晨醒來, 迷矇中問神....今天教會同工訓練會, 祢有什麼話要對他們說?

Then came a word, "I Miss Them.... I Miss Their Love".....
一句話飄進心裡...告訴他們說, " 我思念他們...我思念他們的愛.."

Yes! God is Love, The most important character of God is LOVE
We are not only His "worker", but more importantly His "Lovers".
是的...神就是愛, 祂第一且最重要的屬性就是 "愛"
我們不僅是祂的"工人"(雖然這也很重要)...更是祂的"愛人"

半夜的D

2008-12-05T04:35:00.000-08:00

今天會是很長的一天...但是會是很好的一天,
(哇 ! 打球 ...招待台灣來的同工 + 與DNA 伙伴聚 +準備信息 + Torrance 音樂會...)
因為我在你的每一分鐘裡...
呼吸著我愛的氣息, 享受這又長又美好的一天吧 !

這週末更是一個很長的週末... 但將會是又快樂又安息的週末...
(哇 ! 有情天10週年三個音樂會 + 教會同工訓練及感恩聚餐 + 講道..... )
因為我的恩典不僅夠用....而且豐盛 ...

迷路中的D

早上去參加一個Wells Fargo的社區早餐會, 這銀行奉獻給許多非福利機構一張 $1000元的奉獻, 我代表有情天音樂世界去領了這支票...結果, 秘書給了我錯的地圖指引...竟然開到LA downtown 去了... 怎麼辦? 打了電話連絡後, 還是不清楚確定地點...只知道開Atlantic Blvd... pass 60 Fwy 就會碰到Olympic.... 可是開了好久好久...都沒有看到...禱告中神的感動是---"總是會到的".... 結果...過了好久好久...終於找到了...雖然沒吃到早餐, 但還是順利領了支票..

當神說, ---"總是會到的"的時候, 我心中的感動及盼望是, 對於教會...若方向正確, "總是會到的"....Hahaha... Hallelujah!

清晨的D

每天約清晨5點, 我會(自動)醒起...在我的 D Room 與神約會...
以DNALiving 開始神給我新的一天

先知哈巴谷說, "我要站在守望所，立在望樓上觀看，看耶和華對我說甚麼話..."(2:1)

我的D Room 就是我的守望所...那是我書房中的錄音室...關上門...留一點光...完全安靜
曾經在這個房間...神給我好多詩歌...等我學會attach mp3檔...我會跟大家分享這些歌...I promise...

今天早上, 安靜約10分鐘後, 神給我一句話....我就在你生活的每一分鐘裡面...在你的每一個關係...每一個接觸中...而且, 用這一切來"使萬事(everything)互相效力...叫你得益處(更像耶穌的益處)..."
我還記得昨天神對我說, "你要用我所給你的武器(來作我要你作的事)..."(昨天我用這態度打網球....哇! 本來1-4落後的...竟然演出大逆轉...打到5-4...後來我與partner都有疏忽...又被逆轉打搶七...搶七中又2-5落後...我再度使用神給我的武器 --人高馬大抽球上網...又把對手大逆轉...結果8-6 贏得勝利...哇拉拉...Hahaha.. Hallelujah)

今天我明白... 原來, 神所給我的武器就在我的每一個關係中....我太座...寶貝小孩們...朋友...同工....對我好的...對我不好的...對我和氣的..對我兇的...my God is in it... every single one... 神就在其中...為要祝福我...使我更像耶穌... hahahaha..... Hallelujah...

歡迎Welcome

What is DNA?何謂DNA

2008-12-03T16:37:00.000-08:00

門徒DNA是門徒的生活方式, 就是...
跟隨耶穌時需要培養三種關係
DNA is the lifestyle of disciple - i.e.,
while following Jesus, every disciple needs
to cultivate 3 kinds of relationship- D.N.A.

D- Divine Truth道成肉身的靈修
靠聖靈來聽神聲音,與神建立親密的關係
常常問一個問題 - 神最近在對我說什麼?
(聖靈在我心中有什麼感動? 有什麼引導?)
-to hear God's voice through Holy Spirit(HS)
to have a intimate relationship with God.
-constantly ask one question -
What is God saying to me recently?
(what is HS guiding me in my life now?)

Nurturing Relationship 恩慈關係的培養
要有一個門徒夥伴,
幫助我跟從神的聲音/感動/引導...
門徒夥伴要幫助彼此向生命負責...
分享生命中需要調整的地方
在恩慈的關係中鼓勵彼此
順服神的話語/引導/感動...
I need a disciple partner who can help me
to follow God's guidance...
to hold me accountable...
Share with each other God's voice...
encourage each other graciously
(no condemnation)to obey God's guidance.

請看...我最親密的DNA門徒夥伴 Look...
my most intimate DNA partner.

A-Apostolic Mission愛人靈魂的使命
門徒除了要與神(D) + 與門徒夥伴(N)
緊密連結之外, 還要與非基督徒(A)作朋友
有互動...愛他們...為他們迫切代禱
A true disciple has not only (D + A) relationship,
but also A - interact with non-Christians
and have good relationship with them.
Praying for them... loving them...

有了耶穌的DNA...
生命的成長+ 為主得門徒
mmmm....應該是很自然吧!
When we have Jesus DNA
Our life will grow...
and we will make disciples for Jesus!
