Prayer meeting

第一次參加這裡的祈禱會,感覺很特別ｏ大堂裡差不多有五百位以上的弟兄姊妹 - 我想應該是我所參與的祈禱會中最多人的一個ｏ當我在點算著人數時,發現 what impressed me is not the number of people, but the number of hearts that are so open to God and the number of souls that are so hungry for His presence. They are people who long for Him (not juz His blessings, but God himself). 當牧師邀請有感動的弟兄姊妹到台前禱告時, there are many b/s who walked up to the altar despite the fact that they are sitting in the middle of the row and by walking to the front they need to squeeze through those people sitting on the side ... 在旁的一位姊妹雖然五音不全,但她很用心唱每一首詩歌, 用她有的敬拜上帝ｏI think it is very amazed that everyone juz come as they are when worshipping God, and suddenly it feels very much like a family because we are juz who we are at home and know that we are accepted not becoz we are good, but God is good.

And there are mini prayer groups in the main hall when I walked out of the building after the prayer mtg ended officially. The whole place was juz so prayerful ...

Shouldn't this be what a prayer mtg should be?

週五晚上

週五晚上, 新朋友心情有點恍然... 不想多說話. 在人潮車海中追追趕趕,終於在八時多到了紅碪附近一間教會. 這裡的特色是---作為新朋友,可以不必多說話.雖然在不大的房間裡面有很多弟兄姊妹, 但置身其中,新朋友只是一名安靜的觀眾,在舞臺上一個不起眼的角落,細閱一個一個陌生而殘碎的劇本. 這舞臺, 只屬於這裡的人. 觀眾的參與,只停留在視覺和聽覺上. 這裡的言談歡笑, 在新朋友心裡沒有留下什麼印像---畢竟,牆是兩面的,新朋友又可曾在這人堆中真實停留過？終於明白, 陌生, 到底是什麼一回事.

聚會結束了, 當大家都忙箸收拾椅子, 聖經, 筆記, 投影, 紙張... 心靈的碎片,卻散落處處, 在清潔明澄的房間裡, 慢慢地褪色...

週五晚上, 罔然的感覺充斥在商場大堂裡的每一個角落,無論走到那裡,這空盪盪的情緒,總是讓新朋友的步伐越走越慢. 對新朋友而言, 這裡的溫度,實在太低了...

未來,未知的將來

"我 知 道 　 神 一 切 所 作 的 、 都 必 永 存 、 無 所 增 添 、 無 所 減 少 ． 　 神 這 樣 行 、 是 要 人 在 他 面 前 存 敬 畏 的 心 。"

Not knowing the future helps us to stand in awe before Him, and that we need to have faith ...

孩子心事

Saturday, misty and rainy. I was on my way to a friend's place. Waiting to get off MTR at North point, I noticed this very cute little girl. She is about 1-2 yrs and she was sitting on the lap of her mom. Everything went well until all of a sudden her mom yelled and put her little girl away from her ... guess what, that little cute girl just peed on her mom ... while everyone tried to clean up the place (you know inside MTR, unlike in some buses with carpet seats, liquid doesn't disappear easily) the little girl in a little skirt was surrounded by adults ... she was kind of upset and scared ... and all of a sudden she cried out "爸爸抱抱" ...

Her dad did hesitate ... and the little girl did insist. I wish I could take a picture of it. With her begging her dad finally pick her up and 抱在懷中. I can easily understand his hesitations, especially if they are going to dine somewhere or if there are lots of events afterwards. Carrying the smell around might not be a good idea. I can understand the little girl too - what could be better than "hide in His wings among storms and waves".

I am glad that our Heavenly Father will pick us up no matter how dirty we are. In fact He revealed His love when we are the dirtiest to Him - remember He definitely doesn't like sins, more than the way we dislike smelly body discharge ... but He took that away and accept us the way we are.

Kids are God's special agents to teach us about Heavenly love. And we never know when they are going to start the lesson ... and when does it end.

Buggy blogger ...

Sounds like it is time to migrate to yet another blogging platform ... this is really sad - where are all my formatting???

As many life lessons would have taught us: what you see is not what you get. Be ready for any surprises.
