I was 18 when I had a silly bet with my buddy, Andrew. On our way to the school library, there were two paths. We had to choose either passing through the school buildings or using the main road.

圣诞 你知多少?
圣诞节快乐! 看看 WHATAPPS 的讯息 就可见 大大小小,男女老少,不分肤色,都祝贺彼此圣诞快乐。但圣诞节不是 基督徒的节日吗?怎么好像 大街小巷 都在 庆祝啊?哈哈。也没什么不好的,只是大家知道圣诞的意义吗? 当我们沉浸在节庆的欢乐氛围时,别忘了向良善、宽容又慈爱的上帝献上最诚挚的感谢,是祂让圣诞欢庆有了真正的意义:二千多年前,一名婴孩降生在犹大地的马槽中,天使宣告这是上帝给人类最珍贵的礼物:“我报给你们大喜的信息,……为你们生了救主,就是主基督。”(路加福音2章10-11节)。只有当我们将焦点转移到那位名叫耶稣的婴孩,才能体会到真正的节庆欢乐,因为祂来是“要将自己的百姓从罪恶里救出来”(马太福音1章21节)。(介于 灵敏日粮) 这也让我想起我个人最喜欢的 经文;神愛世人,甚至將他的獨生子賜給他們,叫一切信他的不致滅亡,反得永生。 因為神差他的兒子降世,不是要定世人的罪,乃是要叫世人因他得救。(约翰福音3章十六节)。上帝的恩典 就是那么简单,神赐的救恩 就是如此容易。 祂才是我们欢庆圣诞的焦点,让我们一同赞美上帝赐下这一份美好的圣诞礼物! 但愿使人有盼望的上帝,因信将诸般的喜乐平安充满你们的心。–罗马书15章13节
