耶和華坐箸為王

的確,意然又是同一首詩歌!回美後第一個主日,就出現這首在香港銅福堂時很讓我感動的詩歌。音樂嚮起的時候,心裡有一種很特別的感覺,真的無論在香港,在美國,在什麼時候,祂都在我們生命中坐箸為王…基本上,我都不需要看歌詞了,低頭默想,難道在不久的將來神要我經歷一些很“不平凡”的洪水?所以多次多番的籍詩歌提醒我?我是否有這樣的勇氣和信心,繼續宣告祂是王,並深信背後的意義? 其實洪水可怕,生命的軟弱更可怕,小信,自私,貪心,沮喪…不算是洪水都可以算是 漏水 ...

如果第三次聽到的話…

神的時間

到達西雅圖後一個很深刻的体會…(現在才出街,因為病了一個禮拜)

話說抵達 Seattle downtown 時正想撥電話聯絡之前約好的弟兄來 pick me up ... 但好境不常,晴天pig leg ... 手機無電! 所有電話號碼都在電話裡面…點算呢? 又沒有帶差電器…站在 Seattle Center 良久,除了看看路人是否在用同一型號手機外,竟然想不出任何法子…這個時候腦海中閃個很多意念,從責備自己太不小心,到打的到底要多少錢,從奇望突然有車來接送,到為什麼神會容許這種事…奇怪得很,明明"吾關神事" 但往往卻又要找一個對象來宣泄心中的情緒…

很多人會問:點解不坐巴士…其實這已經是我第一個想法,但帶箸行李,走幾個 blocks, 仲吾知係吾係上對車 (終於發現香港的巴士捧得很!)…後果可能更嚴重…

其實當日天氣很好, Seattle Center 遊人滿佈,仿似人間樂土 ... 但憂慮的眼睛,永遠看不見美好的光明,愁心,是良晨最好的殺手。帶箸一身的疲慮,走進了 Center House 希望上網找尋幫助。終於第一次在Seattle Center 上網, 也是第一次發現 timing 是這麼重要… 本來打算能找到什麼電話之類,但卻竟然在IM 中碰到原來要接我的弟兄…事後他說原來他以為是另外一天,所以正準備睡覺…臨訓前上一下網就訓,加上他的電話關了,打給他也沒用… 竟然就在這幾分鐘的 Window 裡…就解決了我的難題…

有人相信命運的佈局,我卻相信神的時間,不太遲,不太早,經歷到的時候,你就會知道;不要以為機會錯失了,前面就再沒有去路;其實只要他還在,一切都會變得美好…將感謝頌讚,歸給在天上的父。

病左

一番黎就病 ...真係慘! 在與時差和病魔搏鬥之際,突然想起神吩咐以西結籍向左側臥三百九十日,向右側臥四十日,以承擔以色列和猶大家的罪... 真不容易!!! 矣,不知今次要臥多久? (應該不是為罪的原故吧!)

Airport again ...

Finally time to say goodbye to friends and family. It has been a hectic 1.7 week and as my dear friend suggested it felt like a month or more because there have been so many happenings ... Thanks to all who had made so many impacts in my life during this period (you might not have known that) - thanks to my family (they are always so positive), thanks Andrew for your super great French cruisine, thanks Wendy purely for your happiness, thanks Epo for your insightful sharing, thanks Eddie for the nice homey night camping at your place (and thanks for the kiss from Ernst), thanks to Grace and Mirror (the pumpkin/squash soup was great!) thanks to many who I have talked to ... , thanks all!!! (Though I barely had time to meet those I planned to meet, I do cherish all the time we spend together). Most importantly I did have a chance to talk to some recruiting agents in depth and have an interview with one company. A very unique experience that will definitely help me on my decision to come back to Hk. A father whofter all, a big thanks to our heavenly who blesses us and loves us in so many different ways.

Time to board, and time to leave Hk for another .... (who knows) couple months. This time it is really "hundred feelings mixing together ..." - suddenly this song came to me "重回布拉格" ... by Chek Lam ....

See you all ...

耶和華坐箸為王

This is my first time to have a Sunday worship on Saturday. I am very impressed by how lively and (maybe) spontaneous the worship was. It is not very common to see christians in HK to be so involved in singing, praying, clapping their hands and be emotionally expressive ... and the music was real good. But most importantly, God did speak to me through this song ... when I am so confused, frustrated, troubled and undecided about my future - then comes the message that "predicting the future is not the way to go, acknowledging who is in control of the future is the way out". Whatever is flooding in our life, we know and proclaim He still regins - that's how we can ride the waves amidst storms ...

Yes Lord I need to let go whatever is holding me back from trusting you more, loving you more ... let you be my true satisfaction and direction. Praise and glory to our Heavenly Father ...

God always speaks to us, doesn't He?
