[哲思]To know is easier than to do

Totally realize how called painful.
if we pray for somthing a period of time,
but the situation still not change,
or get worse,what shall we do?
still pray?still believe?
pray for what?
for change?
for patient?
or for accept it?

maybe the answer is exist,
but I couldn't see it.
or it's hard for me to do it.

To know is easier than to do.

[哲思]終曲

山輔是愛與希望的龐大工程,
藉由心靈的觸碰,創造生命相遇的奇蹟
僅僅憑著有限的人力和資源,卻要帶領著一大群孩子,
依靠的是信仰的力量和熱情,只想帶給孩子快樂充實和新希望

長達一個月的時間,與孩子們相處,
過程中總有艱苦,肉體疲累,心靈軟弱的時候,
然而在絕境困頓之際,卻更能放下自己。

抬頭仰望清澈的星空,遼闊無垠的山海美景,
憂愁的思緒就瞬間開闊起來,
每每看到孩子們純真無邪的笑臉,
頓時又重新獲得力量。

思維因而清晰,心靈澄澈平靜。

其實自己真的很渺小卑微,
能有機會到偏鄉遇見這群孩子們,我心存感謝,
身分雖是教孩子的老師,
很多時候,從孩子身上學到更多
在孩子的世界裡,沒有身分階級,也沒有爾虞我詐,
只需要拿出真心,真誠相待,
真真切切感受生命相遇的過程。

多年之後,孩子也許早不記得我們,
但遠遠輾轉聽到哪個孩子考上了學校,
心裡滿滿地替他們高興,這樣也就足夠了。

能夠擁有山輔人的身分,
既榮耀也珍惜
擁有的每件山輔衣服,
都好好收在衣櫃裡
象徵著每一年的珍貴回憶

當終曲響起,千頭萬緒湧上心頭,久久不能平復...
雖然每年都懷著最後一次的心情工作,
但臨到別離時,還是有很多不捨,
難以言述,也說不盡~

二十多年前山輔開辦的時候,
前輩們許下了"希望有一天不需要有山輔"的心願
無論是不是這個時候?
都必須接受
都是必須說再見的時候了
沒能參加到開始,參與了結束,也是躬逢其盛嗎?

[哲思]spectacle

hello ,

I went to a funeral last weekend,
a deacon coincidentally used this verse for ending

[1Corinthian 4:9]
For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men condemned to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

how appropriate~

the sister was my gospel teacher,
had a happy family, 3 children,
46 years old, dead for cancer

I can't help to think about teacher W and A
(actually they are good friend,
her husband was the same fellowship and college with W&A)

as the verse James 4:14
we don't know what our life will be like tomorrow.
we are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.

life just like a spectacle,
no matter how shining, shimmering, splendid
the end will come, no one could avoid it.

we don't know what's God's will? don't know why?
no matter how reluctant, we can just accept it.
that's life, we all learning.

forgive me such serious and sensitive,
maybe because of the wounds painful.
(traffic collision, last week)

best regard,
