回顧過去一年的恩典。。。。。 聖誕節的燦爛,不在乎聖誕樹, 卻在乎那馬槽內的主! 雖然2013有福有難。。。。 但是, 上帝的恩典, 往往在我患難無助的日子, 顯得份外的 多而又多, 無比恩待! 一個多月前聽聞英國將遭遇100 日大雪, 是六十年來最差的一年冬天。 那時候聽到後, 我每天學習為這地區的天氣禱告, 求神保守, 結果?暫時經歷了頭一個四年來。。。。沒有雪的冬天! 感恩吧! 神的同在, 只有親身體驗的人, 才能啞然讚嘆!! 雖然有驚有慌的事情, 但終能安穩渡過的, 包括: 讀書的事情, 車子的事情, 親人的困難, 感情的經營, 教會的改變, 工作的供應, 事奉的方向。。。 回顧過去一年, 真的改變不少。 然而, 我發現, 我越願意擺上自己, 為主使用, 上帝的保守和帶領, 就越發清楚, 眷顧恩待, 越發多而又多! 例如, 車子的事情, 年初車子無故被抄牌, 而且罰款慘重。 然而, 到了年尾, 車子發現要換了。 上帝的恩典在此事情上, 多得不可勝數。 他不單派天使幫助我這個第一次要學會選車買車的人兒, 還特別令車行的人在收費上大大離奇的恩待我!! 我發現, 過程中,是恩典多於一切, 給我看見上帝在保守我。 為何他那麼恩待我呢? 我想。 啊, 我發現, 我八月中決定開始在華人教會事奉他, 是我在英國的生命上的一大轉捩點。 也許, 上帝知道我的需要, 所以換車子保守我的出入呢! 讀書上, 也是一樣, 我不是最聰明的人, 然而, 每次困難中, 上帝都出手派天使幫助我, 甚而從香港找來姊妹來到英國幫助我! 我實在。。。無比的感謝上帝。 還有, 我在事奉上, 也得到更大的發揮。 無論是帶領讚美操, 又或是唱歌...
GOD and sister Josephine Love You ...... take good care!
回覆刪除GOD'S He then looked down upon the earth. And saw your precious face. He put His arms around you ... And lifted you to rest; He always takes the best ... He knew that you were suffering... He knew you were in pain .. He knew you' d never ever. .Get well on earth again... So He closed your weary eyelids... And whispered " Peace be thine " Then He took you up to Heaven... With Hands so gentle and kind. Wish PEACE be with you always! Emmanuel !

刪除Hi Autumn,
回覆刪除See you and the doggie, presumably Tinky, the song "Dog and Butterfly" pops up. Though the lyrics may not fit in to this blog writing, I still paste it here for you. Have a great weekend.
There I was with the old man
Stranded again so off I'd ran
A young world crashing around me
No possibilities of getting what I need
He looked at me and smiled
Said "No, no, no, no, no child
See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he likes to fly."
Dog and butterfly
Below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft ground, laughing
She don't know why, she don't know why
Dog and butterfly
Well I stumbled upon your secret place
Safe in the trees you had tears on your face
Wrestling with your desires frozen strangers
Stealing your fires, the message hit my mind
Only words that I could find
See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to fly
Dog and butterfly below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft ground
Laughing to the sky, up to the sky
Dog and butterfly
We're getting older the world's getting colder
For the life of me I don't know the reason why
Maybe it's livin' making us give in
Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide
We're balanced together ocean upon the sky
Another night in this strange town
Moonlight holding me light as down
Voice of confusion inside of me
No begging to go back where I'm free
Feels like I'm through
Then the old man's words are true
See the dog and butterfly
Up in the air he like to fly
Dog and butterfly, below she had to try
She roll back down to the warm soft ground
With a little tear in her eye
She had to try, she had to try
Dog and butterfly
