不要看重自己的學習或工作的結果

弟弟:
告訴你一個故事: 有一個企業家,每天為事業搞的焦頭爛額,有一天他決定要把一切交託給主,他這樣禱告: 天父,這個事業是屬於你的,我把所有的憂慮壓力和恐懼都釋放給你和你的主權====。當天晚上他睡的極好。但半夜電話響起,他的工廠失火了,他平靜的穿上衣服,帶著微笑,站在火場外觀看,他的員工情急的說: 這時候,你怎麼能如此平靜? 他答: 我已經把我的事業移交給神了,工廠是屬於神的,如果祂要把工廠燒毀,那是祂的事。

對神有堅定信心的人相信一切都在神的掌握中,祂開始祂的計畫,必會承擔全部,並讓事情依照祂的計畫來彰顯祂的榮耀。

不論你有沒有換到同伴,那都在神的計畫中,你要喜樂的執行祂的計畫。
尤其我們是精選的靈,我相信神對我們有比一般人更特別的計畫。

你是在為神服務,同伴,同伴團,會長等當然都是你的服務對象。所以很難說要怎樣才是對你最好的學習?基督徒最重要的學習其實是服從,你知道耶穌基督從來沒有好同伴,他被自己的門徒出賣,臨刑之前,在客西馬尼園,他要求門徒們要保持警醒不斷禱告,但他三次出來 察看,門徒都在睡覺。他覺得自己好孤單,求神讓他能免了這苦杯,但他還是選擇服從,所以最後接著說,願成就你的旨意

媽媽是要告訴你,既是服務,就不必預設學習目標或內容。我上禮拜主持一個志工會議,告訴志工們:既然做志工,就要快樂。有沒有做好事不重要?有沒有讓自己常保喜樂,並把快樂的氣氛帶給別人才重要。別人的惡言惡語到我們這為止,從我們開始就只有好聽的話。至於做不好的事,沒什麼大不了的,把問題一樣一樣解決,不看過去,只看現在如何解決。做慈濟志工如此,作傳教士也一樣。弟弟,不要看重自己的學習或工作的結果是怎麼樣。你有沒有在過程中享受並也傳遞快樂的氣氛 呢?保羅在獄中寫信給教會成員時,最常提到的話就是你們要常保喜樂。

說真的,我雖然非常非常心疼你的困境。卻一點不焦慮。我知道神要鍛鍊你,也知道你一定會通過這些考驗。變的和我一樣厲害,成為打不死的蟑螂。記得,要看讓你覺得困難的人為弱者而非惡者。儘管讓那弱者放箭來吧,不要接它,箭就傷不著你。你是智者,有好多事等著你去做呢。對了,別忘了保持常唱歌的習慣。努力背歌詞,讓自己可以隨時唱歌或在心裡哼歌。要聽進去喔,唱歌,唱歌。

幫媽媽把自己照顧好,唱歌! 愛你的媽媽



Dear President,
Many spiritual things happened this week that was able to change my attitude about this new transfer. I know these things didn't happen by accident, but were the answers of my prayers. Just like President Ucthdorf said in the General Conference: God really knows me and I am everything to Him. The experiences I had this week really strengthened my testimony about that.
All these experiences are things I read or heard which are just what I need to know at this time of my mission. I know these things are for sure not from anyone else but from God.
I was reading my mom's weekly email. When she sent the email she didn't know that I would stay with same companion or not for another transfer. In the very last part of email she said: “No matter who your companion will be, it's part of the God's plan for you. You should to obey this special plan positively and happily."
I was reading scripture one day, starting from where I left off. And I read 2 Nephi 4:26 "O then, if I have seen so great things, if the Lord in his condescension unto the children of men hath avisited men in so much mercy, why should my heart weep and my soul linger in the valley of sorrow, and my flesh waste away, and my strength slacken, because of mine afflictions?"
On Thursday, right before we were going to find a class room to teach brother L at the institute building, Brother M saw us and invited us to his class. It was really weird because we didn't tell him that we are going to his class, and we weren't. It turned out that the things he taught (1 Nephi 3-4) were just the things that I needed to hear: Follow the things that God has commanded us to do. If we do it with a good attitude, and trust in God, then God will make things work. 1 Nephi 3:7 has never meant so much to me like this before.
I have gained a testimony that it was God's decision to make me to stay with Elder Lee in this area. I know that He did this for wise purposes. I think I figured out one of the purposes, that is to let me have all these experiences, to strengthen my testimony, to humble me, to tell me that I can't ever make this transfer by myself, but I can do it if I rely on Him.
I thank you President to follow the Spirit when you made transfer call. I will do what God has commanded, and I will do it with a happy and good attitude!

親愛的家人:
如我給會長信上說的,這禮拜感覺好多了! 很多有靈性的經驗讓我學到一切都得靠神,這真的是他的事工,我現在得開心的服從他的計畫.


哈哈 !我從MTC開始每天都在唱歌,有時候在路上唱還會被同伴唸呢 ,歌詞我倒是沒背,都是亂唱聖詩亂配詞。真的謝謝媽媽從小培養我們的音樂興趣。
