刻の涙 - 邁向成熟!

A very touching article by a pastor I read 2 days ago, really do mean a lot to me.

"接納生命有其無奈、虛空之處,經歷上帝的捉摸

一位酋長臨終時要交棒,找來村中三位優秀的年青人,叫他們去攀山,回來報告見到什麼。

第一位三日後回來報告,見繁華美景。

一週後另一個青年人回來,很疲累,見到樹木,見到山上不同的資源。

第三位一個月後回來,滿身傷痕。因他上到山頂,卻見不到什麼!

第三個是正上了山頂的人,他體會到人生到了頂峰其實一無所有! 酋長就把職位交了給他,因他是對生命真正有所體驗,有所了解的人。

做牧師日久,體會到生命中很多處境的無奈、無言。但也常在這些處境中,跟弟兄姊妹一起經歷到上帝的捉摸!
我們怎樣能在人生中找到平衡點?這就要靠著神去捉摸、去把握!"

Very interesting article........

People who know me well enough would know that I always talk about problems I can foresee - I don't enjoy "predicting" the future, especially I think it is pointless to find out the good news beforehand - isn't it great to find out about the good news when it comes? ( ^_^ )

Instead, throughout my life, I realise life is tough - honestly. And more importantly, when we try to climb up (in our career, in our relationships, in our social status), you would realise although everythings good at the beginning, when you reach the end, THERE IS NOTHING THERE, BUT HURTS YOU ACQUIRED IN ORDER TO CLIMB UP TO THE TOP!

But when I look back, this is certainly a lesson God wants us to learn - and these hurts and experiences are opportunities for us to experience God's Love together, and to touch each others' heart by sharing them.

Let us all have faith in God and face the challenges together!
