becoming

No, I am not making this stuff up:

Yes, it is Jesus’ birthday, and he is inviting Jocelyn to his birthday party on a Sunday morning!

「有料的人，從不需要告訴別人他怎樣有料；
無料的，再多講，人地只會更肯定你無料。」

這是我從小時候，爸爸言教、身教的一句話。
我，一生受用，

只想記下。

Conference 回來，心久久未能平復。

我們「想當然」的北美生活，對比他人，從來都自知幸福，卻不能想象是如此幸福。

當然，這樣的會議，一堆又一堆的數字，是必然的衝了又來。

數字不是問題，

問題是，

為何發生在自己的國家就不可以，發生在別人之地卻無慟於衷？

然而

我不內疚，

不內疚不代表不慚愧，

不內疚，

因為我知道內疚只會花光我僅有的氣力，

吸乾我的衝動，

世界不會因為內疚而改變，

The world will change only when the good people do something.

Something.

突發遐想，究竟我的左腦發達D，還是右腦？

哈哈，不論

左腦、右腦，

總之就點都輪唔到

四肢。

補充：給你一點「左腦、右腦」的資料，可作參考。

After seeing our car made a detour, my daughter made a profound statement on her way to school this morning:

Why do we need go back?

Because we need to go home.

(Jocelyn, age 3 1/2)

Jocelyn says:

Daddy said the first Monday of September is Labour Day, so we should do some labour work. We were cleaning up our dirty and muddy garage this afternoon after church. I did a lot of scrubbing and washing. And I “accidentally” made Daddy all wet with the super water gun! (Don’t tell Daddy, but I do know Labour day is not for physically work, but hey, as long as I can play with water, who am I to argue!

剛放下電話，再讀手上的書，遇上這段文字，和剛才電話筒對邊的心態，形成強烈的對比：

If our first understanding of God is more about his anger and judgement than about his love, mercy and generosity, it is not only natural but indeed inevitable that we come to outwork these values ourselves. If we believe that God doesn’t ‘take’ to those outside the church, we too, in turn, will begin to despise or patronize them. Each of us is made in the image of our god; our view of God’s character will reflect itself in our attitudes, behaviour, tone and body language. Behaviour is always the echo of belief. (Steve Chalke, Intelligent Church, p21)

越來越發覺，天上的爸爸每天藉各式各樣的信息，對我說話的時候，甚是幽默。
