隨著 2008 新專輯製作季節的來到,
每天同工們抱著緊張刺激又期待的心,
一點一滴地將自己的那一份獻上.
上個週末一連兩天, 從白天到夜晚,
樂手們已經開始集中火力在新專輯的編曲了.
團結就是力量喔!
當然, 力量來自於神的恩典以及每天所賜的靈糧.
靈糧啊靈糧,
當我們每天花時間與父神交通, TWA,
不僅在物質上祂會供應, 心靈上的供應也是不缺乏的喔.

Some insights from 一位同工的 TWA:
“All the Lord’s ways are LOVING and TRUE for those who follow the demands of his agreement.” Psalm 25:10
So I was pondering over this very verse this morning in Starbucks. It reads like a regular adoration and blessing bible verse, but as I let my thoughts go deep, I realized I can’t just see “Lord’s ways being LOVING and TRUE” by its apparent face value. I used to think that everything the Lord does should appeal to my worldly senses, meaning every blessing should look/sound/smell sweet, good, sugar-coated…you name it. I used to think I need to “bear through” all the trials and disciplines from God. But as I read on, I came to understand the secret is hidden in the second part of the phrase where it says “to those who follow the demands of his agreement.” A light bulb is turned on! The Lord is loving and righteous; he is the lion and the lamb. He is so faithful in times of trouble, in times of joy, in times of discipline, in times of blessing. Yes, God brings difficulties in our lives to discipline us; but his purpose is not to merely try us, he does it for love, so that we can be more like Jesus. Only the real-deal Christians will see even the disciplines and trials from the Lord as loving and true, because they are the true followers of God’s demands of his agreement. Wow, through the lenses of obedience, everything God does and brings are just so LOVING and TRUE; it leaves us in awe. He gives and takes away, but I will always bless His Holy name!

詩篇25:10 凡遵守他的約和他法度的人,耶和華都以慈愛誠實待他。
今天早上在Starbucks靈修的時候,我一直不斷地思想這一節經節。
從字面上來看,這是一句帶著祝福的應許,但是當我仔細地探索這句話的意義,我發現我不能只是單單地注目在字句上的淺義。
以前的我,每次讀到神的慈愛誠實,只能以非常世界的角度領受。換句話說,我對從神而來祝福的認知,只限制於這世界所認同的 “大的, 美的, 享受的, 豐富的”事物。除此之外,我將神所允許的考驗及管教歸類於,“我需要忍受度過”的部分。
當我繼續往下讀, 我卻發現這句話的精義隱藏在 “凡遵守他的約和他法度的人”這句話裡。
頓時我恍然大悟! 神是慈愛的也是公義的;祂是猶大的獅子也是順服的羔羊 或在困境,或在順境,或經歷試煉,或經歷祝福,神的信實都不改變。神將困難帶到我們的生命中,目的不是要試探我們,而是因為愛我們緣故,藉著困難讓我們學習更像耶穌。
只有真正“遵守他的約和他法度的”耶穌門徒,才能明白神從慈愛和誠實為出發點, 賜給我們祝福, 也包括了考驗及管教。
當我們願意從順服神的角度看我們的人生的時候, 我們就能體驗神的一切帶領都是存著愛和誠實的。
賞賜是耶和華,收取是耶和華,耶和華的名是應當稱頌的!
