继《千里之行、始于足下》的里程碑后,在前面为我展开的是《高瞻远瞩、鹏程万里》新旅程。鹏,据《庄子•逍遥游》记载,是传说中最大的鸟,它展开双翅,宛如遮天的乌云。大鹏鸟乘着旋转的狂飙盘旋向上,搏击一下翅膀,就激起海面三千里的浪,乘着旋风一下子就可以飞出九万里。我相信,当我搏击圣灵充满+圣经扎根的翅膀,靠着从上头来的能力,我能翱翔在神的国度里、活出美好自由的风采。

Hello Kitty
Information taken from "Hello Kitty Sweet, Happy, Fun Book!: A Sneak Peek Into Her Supercute World".
60年婚姻的秘诀
A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little Old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about.
For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside. She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box. When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000.
He asked her about the contents. 'When we were to be married,' she said, ' my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was to never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll.' The little old man was so moved; he had to
fight back tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box.
She had only been angry with him two times in all those years of living and loving. He almost
burst with happiness. 'Honey,' he said, 'that explains the doll, but what about all of this money? Where did it come from?' 'Oh,' she said, 'that's the money I made from selling the dolls.'

我活在神的同在中(下)
As I was preparing a Via Dolorosa devotion which climax to April 8th
Easter service in Chinese Church and in the midst of preparing lectures for BCM's classes in the coming term to teach on Life of Christ, I was hinking
about the Holy Land again. It was an unspoken desire; it will be nice if I can step in the Land again and refresh my memory and feel the life of Christ on earth again.
My last visit to the Holy Land was about 15-16 years ago (before Andrew was born), which not only left me with cognitive knowledge about the Land but also a special encounter which brought my heart closer to our Lord. So …that visit has a 珍贵的角落 (a special corner) in my heart.
During Sunday service, I plan to bring everyone to experience Via Dolorosa by circling the hall as i lead the devotion for each station. I told the church, since we can’t do this in the Holy Land, let us do it here. Someone in the group appreciate what I was doing because she said it is now very costly to visit the Holy Land. It was a good experience on Sunday even though there are rooms for improvement on the devotional write up.
I ended the service by listening to a song and as we all move out to have our breakfast, at the doorway, someone walk up to me, passing me a bottle of olive oil from Jerusalem and a broacher in his hand saying: “If you are able to make it this November, I would like to pay for your study tour to Israel.” I was not sure what I heard so I ask again, “You are talking about me going to Jerusalem? Are you serious? Oh! I want to cry now!...” I was pleasantly surprised by the offer. It is KAIROS!
Last Saturday, as I was laying on bed .... thinking about a project; a Via Dolorosa devotion study publication for 2013 Easter. I am thinking about ways to enhance both the knowledge and the experience part of the project. I believe the less than 20 pages Via Dolorosa devotion study project will bless many Chinese speaking Christian.
Now I am going to the Holy Land in November, wow! I will be ON TIME to bring back some jewels for the project. It is KAIROS!
As usual, many worries and concerns arises within seconds. The main one is, if I go, means I am going miss the final subject for Dip. in Counseling again!! The course will only be conducted in November this year and i need this final subject for graduation. (I missed this last subject 2 years ago due to working on Key Magazine for BCM). Secondly, how about Victor, I think it is going to be school holiday too (9th Nov onward).
Never the less, the conviction to go was strong and intense. I walked back to main hall, and tell the kind sponsor that, “Thank you for the offer. I WILL GO!”
Yesterday, came back from class, I found my sponsor for the trip already drop the application form in my inbox... saying: I believe our father God wants to bless you for this trip. Thank Him to fulfill your heart desire. It is a wonderful invitation by the Lord and my sponsor. God knows the desire of my heart!
Updates:

我活在神的同在中(上)
2)早上在做家系图功课时,需要确定对自己上几代的长辈有正确的称呼,所以用了些时间收索有关在这方面的资料。晚上,佳锝把光华日报的“祖宗的称呼”转载在面子书上。
3)晚上,心血来潮,要把面子书的Cover Picture更新。刚好万杰在旁做功课。他教我如何下载面子书的封面图片。挑了一阵子,终于感觉跟“SPRING”这个画面有共鸣。今早,一打开面子书,就看到John Tracy Clinic 的update如此写:Spring is officially here at JTC!...
4)刚刚在阅读有关“基督生平”的书籍。可以感到圣灵顺序的带领我把一些参考书拿出来做对比。手上一本自己非常喜爱的Robert H Stein的英文书是主要的参考书。当我翻到《读经的艺术》页155时,竟然看到“斯坦因”,Stein 的中文译名。
我非常熟悉以上上帝与我沟通的方式。
他在告诉我 – 前进吧!我与你同在。

前进的动力
“I cannot rejoice over the fact that Victor is deaf, but neither am I feeling bitter about it. I believed in the God that I served. There must be a purpose behind this.

因为我是你的家後
这位太太带着浓厚传统家庭观念画出她对丈夫深厚的感情。我想她不单是每天无微不至深深的爱护着她的丈夫,连谁要先离开她都希望可以安排的最妥当。
她的矛盾在于,如何与一起携手生活了这么多年的丈夫分手。这段婚姻该如何结束?如果可以让她选择谁先离开,哪该是谁先离开,这个选择的基础又是什么呢?这个问题我与丈夫也讨论过,比较实际的说,是你先去世还是我先去世呢?
因为我是你的妻子,从年轻就把自己的青春奉献给你的家庭,看透了所有的人情事故,还是觉得你最重要!
因为我是你的妻子,我不要让你寂寞,如果在年老时,没有子孙陪伴你,那就我就让你先走,因为我不想看到你孤单流泪。
因为我是你的妻子,我不愿过一天没有你的生活。如果在 年老时,有子孙陪伴你,那我就自私点,让我先走吧!
待接......

沟通滤镜
当我对某个人有期望,加上我与对方的处事风格有别时,信念与期待和风格不同的滤镜就会出现。例如:面对一位我认为是懒惰的基督徒时,他所说的一切都会被我的滤镜来否定。我会认为他跌倒是因为他不祷告、不读经。
我觉得自己使用自我保护的滤镜是比较严重的。害怕被拒绝是我成长期的挣扎。常常都会有先入为主的心态说,不是自己的错、是别人耽搁了我以致我不能达到完美。所以在对话时就会有筑起一道围墙来自我保护。

山谷同路人
陪同他们走过“过程”比催促他们“到达”结局来的重要与有意义。
我会相信家里的成员是有能力处理他们的事情与情绪及到达一个新平衡。

生命的两面
一颗茂盛的树,有看得见的树干也有隐藏的树根。
每一个外在的行为背后也隐藏着一些内在的心理动机。萨提亚模式(The Satir Model)的冰山伦理告知,水平面之下隐藏着的价值观有感受、观点、期待、渴望与自我。
若我们水平之下是耶稣所赐的活水泉源、生命源头,那我们的生命就永远不渴(约4:14),永远得着滋养。愿我们是一颗根深叶茂,栽于溪水旁的树,在河边扎根;炎热来到,并不惧怕,叶子仍必清翠;在干旱之年毫无挂虑,而且结果不止。(耶17:7-8)
