On this day, God wants you to know

... that gratitude is good. The more you are thankful for, the more you will have to be thankful for. God responds to a grateful heart with joy.

2011.12.28

... that you are to let grace flow freely from your heart. Think back over the last few days, - how many times have you felt appreciation towards another? How many times have you thought about another: 'what a lovely smile', or 'she is so nice', or 'such a kind man', or any of a myriad of other appreciative thoughts. Did you express them? Did you come up to her and say: 'you are so nice'? And why not? Why did you stop divine grace from flowing freely from your heart? Do you want to change the world to the better? This is it, this is how you start.

謝謝

謝謝袮讓我知道
原來我還是喜歡你的

2011.12.25

... that there are only two ways to live your life: One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is. Don't wait for miracles, your whole life is a miracle.

2011.12.25

... that pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. Pain is the reaction of the body, and as long as you have the body, some pain is inevitable. Suffering is the contraction of the mind, and unlike pain, is optional. Don't add suffering to pain, - relax your mind and the suffering will pass.

Friday, December 23, 2011

2011.12.24

... that peace will come when you let the presence of God settle into your heart. If there is to be peace in the world, there must be peace in the nations. If there is to be peace in the nations, there must be peace in the cities. If there is to be peace in the cities, there must be peace between neighbors. If there is to be peace between neighbors, there must be peace in the home. If there is to be peace in the home, there must be peace in the heart.

Thursday, December 22, 2011

2011.12.23

... that you are to trust yourself. If you do not, then you will forever be looking to others to prove your own merit to you, and you will never be satisfied. You will always be asking others what to do and at the same time resenting their help. Trust in yourself starts with being ok with the consequences of your decisions.

Tuesday, December 20, 2011

2011.12.20

... that circumstances don't make you, they reveal you. How you respond to the life God offers you is what makes you.

Thursday, December 15, 2011

2011.12.16

... that you are not alone. God is always with you, seen or unseen, saint or sinner. Giving you air, supporting your footsteps, nourishing you with sunshine, God is here with you. The separateness you sometimes feel is an illusion, in truth you are never alone.

Tuesday, December 13, 2011

2011.12.14

... that contentment comes from unconditional love. When you love conditionally, you have to keep deciding if the other is worthy of your love. You can never let go of your guard enough to be content. Why not decide once and for all, and love once and for all. And be content.

Monday, December 12, 2011

2011.12.13

On this day, God wants you to know
... that your unspoken prayers will be answered. Yes, God knows you, God hears you, God loves you, God is there for you. You are blessed.

Friday, December 9, 2011

2011.12.10

that happiness has nothing to do with pleasure. You feel pleasure when you want something and you get it. Or when you don't want something and you remove it. Pleasure is always relative. Happiness is absolute. Happiness is the understanding and acceptance of life as it is in this very moment as completely perfect, because every creation of God is perfect. The degree to which you do not accept life in all of the Divine forms is the degree to which you suffer.

Wednesday, December 7, 2011

2011.12.08

... that you are a child of God. Remain strong in your faith, no matter how many mistakes God's children make along the way of growing up, they are still destined for Grace and eternal Joy.

Monday, December 5, 2011

2011.12.06

... that work begins when you don't like what you are doing. Little children can do the most amazing things with such joy and fun. You were little once too, and knew how to turn everything into a game. So, turn your work into a game, and you will find joy and satisfaction in it. What are some ways you can start being playful with work?

Sunday, December 4, 2011

2011.12.05

... that God doesn't give you what you want, God gives you according to who you are. Change who you are to change your life.

Friday, December 2, 2011

2011.12.03

... that nothing is exciting if you know what the outcome is going to be. You keep wanting to know how things will play out, keep asking to see the future. God doesn't give anyone the power to know the future, because life becomes maddeningly boring when you know everything upfront. So, instead of struggling, enjoy the uncertainty - to be alive means to not know.

Thursday, December 1, 2011

2011.12.02

... that the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sang the best. Do not wait; the time will never be 'just right'. Start where you are, work with whatever is at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.

梦想

人生,不应该是找到有人认同你的梦想才起航,而应该是在努力追求梦想的航路中找到别人的认同

2011.11.29

we all need the validation of love to feel safe, secure, and at home in this world. Don't withhold your love and appreciation. Love abundantly.

Sunday, November 27, 2011

2011.11.28

... that you only need to Ask. God is waiting for your Asking, waiting to reach out to you.

It takes rivers of blood to erase our faults in the eyes of man.
God only requires a drop of tears.

Thursday, November 24, 2011

2011.11.24

... that you are unique and precious. When you try to value yourself for being the best in something, you are bound to fail. Even Olympic champions are the best only for a few years. You are precious to God not because there is no one better than you, but because you are a unique creation of mind, body and spirit, - there is no one like you, - and that is exactly what makes you so indescribably precious.

Tuesday, November 22, 2011

2011.11.22

... that today is a big day for you. Yes, today. Keep your eyes open for a message. It might come in a shape of a bird flying overhead, or a graffiti on a wall, or a phrase said by a passerby, or... Whatever shape it has, this message has been trying to reach you for years, and today is finally the day. Keep your senses open.

Sunday, November 20, 2011

2011.11.21

god wants you to know

... that everyone mistakes the limits of their vision for the limits of the world. Have compassion for others when they cannot see what is obvious to you. Have compassion for yourself when you realize that you can see only a small part of God's vision for the world.

Friday, November 18, 2011

2011.11.18

... that what you are most afraid of is where your greatest rewards are. If all you had to do was wish for something and you would have it, life would be pretty boring, wouldn't it? God placed barriers between us and what we want, so we can enjoy interesting and satisfying lives. God hid our biggest rewards behind the highest barriers - our deepest fears. God wants us to face our fears, and hold ground in their presence, and let them go, and that's how we get out biggest rewards. What are you most afraid of? Say it, just start by saying it.

Wednesday, November 16, 2011

2011.11.17

... that sleep and rest are all part of the divine order. Don't make your waking life and responsibilities so important that you neglect the very real benefits of sleep, rest, and dreaming. The night is your time of restoration. It is essential. God made both day and night for a reason.

Monday, November 14, 2011

2011.11.15

... that when an impossible must happen, put it on God's to-do list. Well, if you can't make it happen, and no one else can, there is only thing left to do, - finally look up and trust in God to make it right.

Saturday, November 12, 2011

真心

我始终相信,在这个世界上,只要你愿意拿出自己的真心,一定会遇到另一个跟你一样付出真心的人

2011.11.13

... that there is no way to happiness, happiness is the way. Happiness does not come from seeking new landscapes, but from having new eyes on the same life you've always been living

Monday, November 7, 2011

2011.11.08

... that you cannot let this day pass without telling the people you love that you love them. Do not take for granted the people closest to your heart. Nothing is permanent, celebrate them now.

Sunday, November 6, 2011

2011.11.07

... that you can be an echo of your past, or the glory of your future. Past is connected to future through the present. At this very moment, at every moment, you are choosing to carry on the past with all its troubles on your shoulders, OR to let it go and see bright future pull your forward. Choose wisely.

Saturday, November 5, 2011

2011.11.06

... that God sees you as you truly are, - a holy child of light: I see you strong and whole. I see you blessed and prospered. I see you courageous and confident. I see you capable and successful. I see you free from all limitations or bondage of any kind. I see you as the spiritually perfect being you truly are.

Wednesday, November 2, 2011

2011.11.03

On this day, God wants you to know
... that there is no such thing as a problem without a Divine gift hidden within it. You have these problems because you need the gifts they carry within.

Monday, October 31, 2011

2011.11.01

... that shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half a sorrow. There is no need for you to go it alone. There are people who love you, and who are ready to give you much needed support. There are even more, - way more than you can possibly imagine, people who CAN love you if you give them a chance. Make 'share joy, half the sorrow' your motto for today.

Saturday, October 29, 2011

2011.10.30

... that every relationship rests on three legs: accepting, supporting and challenging. That's really it, isn't it? You want your relationships to be grounded on accepting each other as you are. On supporting each other through the inevitable ups and downs. On challenging each other to become more, to grow, to flourish. Which one of these is the more difficult one for you, and how are you going to practice it in the next 24 hours?

Thursday, October 27, 2011

2011.10.28

☆ 天天想你,天天守住一顆心,把我最好的愛留給你

2011.10.28

... that it is the day of deep peace for you. Deep peace of the running wave to you. Deep peace of the quiet earth to you. Deep peace of the flowing air to you. Deep peace of the shining star to you.

Wednesday, October 26, 2011

2011.10.27

... that difficult people are very important, - they teach you tolerance and acceptance. If all was going your way all the time, you would become a spoiled child, wouldn't everyone? Difficult people are just one of the ways God teaches us to expand beyond our egos and accept other perspectives on life.

Tuesday, October 25, 2011

2011.10.26

... that when you come to a wall, you can either climb it, or you can simply walk around until you find a door. Don't make life so hard, - look for the doors!

金句

☆ 真正的愛情需要等待,誰都可以說愛妳,但不是人人都能等妳。

2011.10.22

【壞情緒還是少掛在嘴邊比較好】
家人聽了難過,朋友聽了擔心,對手聽了偷笑,更讓自己顧影自憐,喪失鬥志。
負面情緒就像長在背上的痘子,小心別碰到,默默就好了,沒必要天天亮出來大肆做廣告。

dear god,but i know i can tell you=)
thanks for hearing my pray words and loving me so much

20111014見證

又到了文思泉湧的時候了。。。

親愛的主,謝謝你,也要跟你說對不起

謝謝是因爲總是對我不離不棄

對不起是因爲總是不明白你的心意,沒有按照你的旨意


我,總是尋找心理渴望的

卻沒有好好觀察身邊已經有的

人,就是那麽不滿足;人,就是那麽貪心

我想我最有罪的地方,就是不夠坦白面對自己的黑暗面

事實上,我是一個想要擁有很多的人

看到這個,想學,看到那個,希望自己也懂,看到别个,希望拥有的那个人是自己

拼命想建立自己的人脈, 拼命想找一班死忠好友(不知道为什么总觉得现在的朋友不足够@@ 求主怜悯)拼命想制造属于自己的荣耀,成就;拼命想到处去玩;拼命想透过工读来赚取额外的生活费,很多很多@@ 唯独爱情的部分,我倒是很安份,完完全全的交托给主XD 大概是我很有自知之明,知道现今的我根本无法承受所谓的“爱情”,毕竟“爱情”不是纯粹两个字而已,包含太多太多的责任,承诺在里头~是需要花心思、时间去经营,才能开花结果。所以。。。现阶段。。。我还是乖乖读书+写论文吧@@

嗯,抒发了这么多,是时候来分享今天的见证了=

其实一直被这个问题困扰很久了

不知道为什么,身边的朋友不少,却始终觉得,似乎没有一个有办法让我觉得有“能够依靠的感觉”或者“能够深入倾诉”的人。我想,是我不知足,是我心里真的渴望有个人可以和我一起分担。也许是朋友,也许是未来的另一半?不明。。。但我知道,现今的我,主已经赐给我几个很棒的学习伙伴。只是肤浅的我一直追求“一群人的快乐”而忽略了“几个人简单的感动”

首先,要感谢神把我带到善牧堂信义会,让我有机会在这里学习。也感谢神透过师母好好的带领我,每天陪我灵修祷告,我知道师母真的很忙很忙,但还是愿意拨空陪我,真的让我觉得很感动,很抱歉我还是经常会有动摇的念头,但感谢主给我一颗愿意谨慎的心,愿意仔细询问才做出决定,而不是冒冒然凭血气行事。昨天的我实在太难过,于是打给了以前的大学朋友聊天,向他诉苦。没想到她竟然推荐我去禅学社@@ 还说我可以在那边找到想要的东西。

虽然有点心动,但心里是不平安的。于是我选择询问师母,换来的答案当然是,不鼓励也不建议我去。当然也提出了充份的理由告诉我,为何不适合去。其实我可以理解师母的担心。毕竟我现在的灵命,实在犹如婴孩一般非常薄弱,师母还开玩笑说,baby除了哭就是吃喝拉撒哭~我现在的状态就是这样XD 师母直接点出我的弱点,需要陪伴,内心有一个空洞,需要被填满。我不喜欢这样的自己,我希望自己可以坚强一点,但师母说,那就是你,你应该要坦然地面对,才能把它填满。也许,我的弱点就是在于不愿勇敢承认自己的不足吧。求主怜悯

于是师母握起我的手替我祷告,当我开始越来越接近神的时候,撒旦势必会出来一直破坏,会透过身边朋友纷纷介绍别的宗教或信仰,目的只有一个,就是要远离神,求主保守我不要掉入魔鬼的陷阱里,也求主能够让我找到可以互相陪伴的好朋友。就在这个时候,我的脑海立刻浮现出一个画面,一直对我不离不弃的2位同班同学。他们对我很好,但始终熟不起来。纷纷在我最困难的时候,对我伸出援手,在我需要救济的时候,直接过来帮我,没有一句废话。人生最大悲哀就是忽略對你好的人,對忽略你的人好。這是我今天最深的感觸。

我想是我的问题,一直渴望能够融入另一群人较多的党群,或者应该说,全班都能凝聚在一起,也许是太不知足了,毕竟这不是掌控在我手上,而是在神手中。于是问了师母,神所赐我们的,是不是跟我们祷告的不一樣(上帝给你的不是你想要的,而是最适合你的。好比说你希望可以全班一起好,不管怎么努力结果还是无法融入他们,只让自己更痛苦更辛苦。于是上帝选择让你只跟一或两个比较聊得来的当朋友)到现在我还是有点驚訝,爲何禱告后會立刻浮現2位朋友的畫面,神似乎想告訴我寫什麽,那一刻,终于忽然有种经历神的感觉了。师母不断强调,神是要经历的,才能体会那种感受。願主好好帶領我,能夠一步一腳印經歷你美妙的恩典吧。=)

如果你愿意的话,请为我祷告。让我能够在这条恩典之路,荣神益人^^ 以馬内利,阿们!!!

自由。。。

豐盛人生小組教案
2011年10月 主題:享受靈裡的自由
小組長版.第三週

暖身:分享本週的主日信息
回應:分享上週的行動成果

✤本週主題:自由的榮耀
問候語:親愛的弟兄姊妹們平安!請先跟你左右兩邊的人說:「願你喜樂」,讓我們存著歡喜單純的心,進入本週「自由的榮耀」的操練中喔!現在,就先與大家分享一個有趣的故事。

✤小組開場
故事分享:誰最堅持?
開學第一天,蘇格拉底對學生們說:「今天你們只要學一件最簡單也是最容易的事。請大家站起來,每人把胳膊盡量往前甩,然後再盡量往後甩。」
蘇格拉底自己示範了一遍,說:「從今天開始,每個人每天都要做300下。大家能做到嗎?」學生們都笑了,認為這麼簡單的事,怎麼可能做不到呢?
過了一個月,蘇格拉底問學生們:「每天甩手300下,哪些同學有做到?」有一大半的學生驕傲的舉起了手。又過了一個月,蘇格拉底又問,堅持下來的學生只剩下一半不到。一年過後,當蘇格拉底再問大家:「請告訴我,每天甩手300下,還有哪幾位堅持著?」
這時,整個教室裡只有一人舉起了手,這個人就是蘇格拉底學生中最有成就的──柏拉圖。

轉折語:你也可以試試看,甩手的動作看似容易,但是要堅定持續下去卻是最難的,在這個故事中,你還有什麼樣的發現與心得呢?讓我們一起來分享吧! 

✤討論與思想
1. 你認為在故事中,大部分學生放棄的原因是什麼?(覺得很無聊、沒有意義、沒有人提醒,就沒有繼續做下去……,自由分享。)
2. 在什麼情況下,會讓人有繼續堅持的動力?為什麼?(有人鼓勵或有獎賞,因為有人鼓勵就不容易灰心,有獎賞就能有動力,並且充滿熱情……自由分享題)
3. 在你的生活中,你曾因為什麼事情而有「受不了」、「撐不下去」的感覺?最後你怎麼做?事情的結果又是如何?(預備考試的過程中,必須每天到圖書館讀書,不 能有自己的休閒娛樂,但因為想到如果可以考到理想的學校,學習自己有興趣的事物,因此就咬著牙撐下去,最後得以金榜題名,現在的生活很開心……,自由分享 題。)

✤背誦金句
但受造之物仍然指望脫離敗壞的轄制,得享(享:原文是入)神兒女自由的榮耀。(羅馬書8章21節)

✤本週經文
羅馬書8章17~21節
8:17 ……如果我們和他一同受苦,也必和他一同得榮耀。
8:18 我想,現在的苦楚若比起將來要顯於我們的榮耀就不足介意了。
8:19 受造之物切望等候神的眾子顯出來。
8:20 因為受造之物服在虛空之下,不是自己願意,乃是因那叫他如此的。
8:21 但受造之物仍然指望脫離敗壞的轄制,得享(享:原文是入)神兒女自由的榮耀。

✤經文討論
1. 受苦與榮耀之間有什麼關連?在你的生活中,有哪些類似的經驗呢?(1.我們和主一同受苦,也必和主一同得榮耀;2.信仰生活遭到未信的家人逼迫、因為堅守真理而受到他人的嘲笑……。
2. 你對信仰存有的盼望是什麼?(脫離敗壞的轄制,不要做罪的奴僕……,自由分享題。)
3. 什麼是神兒女「自由的榮耀」?這跟你信仰的盼望有何關連?(1.凡事隨從聖靈而行,活出基督的樣式來;2.而這喜樂、自由的屬靈生活,使我盼望未來永恆的天國家鄉。)

✤參考信息
1. 基督雖然在肉身受苦,但將來必得著榮耀,我們這些神的兒女,也要與祂一同受苦,至終同得榮耀。因此從這裡可以看出,受苦和榮耀是一體兩面的,受苦是短暫的,榮耀卻是永遠的。
2. 基督徒要等候身體的得贖,等候榮耀教會的出現,就是新耶路撒冷的出現,而我們的盼望是基督的再來,所以基督成了我們榮耀的盼望。所有神的兒女至終要得著自 由的榮耀。約翰在啟示錄末了說到:「主耶穌啊!我願祢來。」這不僅是約翰的心願,更是成為千千萬萬基督徒的呼聲和衷心期盼。
3. 神兒女「自由的榮耀」就是在那榮耀的境地,滿了基督的自由,這是真自由,不受任何的綑綁,不再被罪、世界、己還有敗壞的肉體挾制。就像神救贖了以色列,這 是作神兒女享有自由的永久例證。神叫以色列人得著滿有榮燿的自由,得以進入應許之地,擺脫在埃及所受的奴役,享有真自由。
4. 馬丁路德非常重視人權,他解放思想,把世界從中古時代,帶進了光輝的新現代,是近代史上最重要的人物。馬丁路德提出了基督徒屬靈的自由和束縛,還有美國羅 斯福總統,提出了四項基本自由:言論自由,信仰自由,免於缺乏之自由,和免於恐懼之自由,與專制主義對立,他也是美國歷史上,最偉大並受人民愛戴的總統, 這兩位不虞餘力的提倡自由與釋放奴役,為自由的實行立下一個很好的里程碑。
5. 有一個故事是這樣說的:小時候揚揚刷牙都隨便刷,不好好刷牙的結果就是蛀牙,然後得看牙醫。牙醫說,半年要洗一次牙,可是揚揚才不要去,因為洗牙也很痛 苦,都等到蛀到不行了才去找醫生。後來去當兵,牙痛送到軍醫院,被拔了三顆大牙;前一陣子去看牙醫,醫生說大牙已經失去咀嚼能力,現在只能植牙。雖然看牙 醫會令揚揚覺得很可怕,但是等到揚揚真的蛀牙時,後面的痛苦是加倍的。所以基督徒不能只是看眼前的,貪圖安逸,真正苦難來時,就很難勝過。我們要面對目前 至暫至輕的苦楚,還是要選擇將來更厲害的苦?打針、吃藥很痛,開刀更痛,但是如果不面對,將來會更嚴重,我們要怎麼計算衡量輕重?如果不懂衡量,常常會錯 誤判斷。寧可現在痛苦,不要將來痛苦。就像信主和不信主都有苦痛,但是信主的人有盼望,有自由的榮耀。
6. 自由的榮耀,就是凡事隨從靈而行,活出基督的樣式來,一直將眼目單單的朝向主,以基督的再來作我們榮耀的盼望,現在的苦難都算不得什麼,將來的福分是超乎所求享的。我們一起來禱告:
7. 親愛的主耶穌,謝謝祢拯救並釋放了我,叫我在愛裡,在祢裡面沒有懼怕,對未來充滿盼望和信心,熱切等待主耶穌的再來,我要預備自己,就如新婦裝飾整齊等候丈夫,使我成為合祢心意,討祢喜悅的新婦。奉主耶穌基督的名禱告,阿們!

✤本週行動
1. 在遇到困難或無法跨越的關卡時,能想到此時耶穌也與你同在,祂將給你力量、陪伴你度過。
2. 在本週所做的每一件事上,去思考神所賜的自由,並做出正確的決定。

Sometimes the easiest way to lose something is wanting it too much.

这是今天神给我的金句。。。
嗯,说得很好,我也觉得,自己的私欲,欲望太强了
虽然我的欲望不是那种可怕的情欲~~~
但就是对工读,对友情的渴望,期待有人陪,有钱花
我想我最近是越来越属世了><
明明最近一直待在教会的
也不知道自己在干什么==
求主怜悯,让我能够更懂得珍惜自己的幸福
不要一直到看别人身上的

就像学姐对我说,不要羡慕別人因爲
上帝给每个人都是为我们量身定做的
所以上帝給我們的就是最好的=)

2011年9月15日

我想我終于明白了。。。爲何所求的沒有得著,原來是因爲真的不適合。或者有比自己更適合的人應該得著那份恩典。我想我現在需要學習的,就是定睛在神身上,不要羡慕別人,要多多看看神已經數算給我的恩典,這樣相信我就會越來越明白自己要的是什麽,也會明白上帝要給我的是什麽了=)感謝這段日子以來一直聼我傾訴的人,有你們真好=
