神所爱的祂必管教 喜乐姊妹感恩见証分享

愿敬畏耶和华的说:「祂的慈爱永远长存!」我在急难中求告耶和华,祂就应允我,把我安置在宽阔之地。有耶和华帮助我,我必不惧怕,人能把我怎么样呢?(诗篇一一八:四至六)	
	我的英文姓名是JOYCE YUE,在受洗之前,几乎每周日都参加教会崇拜活动、教会团契和各种学习活动,我也积极追求主耶稣。我的生活方式也改变了很多,但是我的生命里还有很多属世界的追求,有眼目的情欲和今生的骄傲等。	
	为了能让我的儿子在二○一八年九月进入一个好的初中上学,我便从二○一七年就开始在纽约长岛几个好的学区寻找房子。几乎每个周末都去看房子,看房之前我也祷告,求神帮助我找到不错的房子,也愿意开放我的家庭做服事。当时,我并不明白神的心意,神也没有阻止我。
	终于在二○一八年的七月份,我成功购买了二千七百尺的独立屋,前后院子也特别大。于是,我开始买材料装修,购置傢俱,精心布置新居。每天要打扫室内卫生,冬天铲雪,夏天除草、杀虫,秋天扫落叶。可是住进去不到二年,屋顶开始漏水,我便要换屋顶。在三年间,花了很多精力处理房子的问题,即使我膝盖做手术后,在休养期间,也没有停止为房子劳碌。每天疲惫不堪,根本没有因为住了大房子而快乐,甚至感觉自己好像是房子的奴隶,房子的活儿永远做不完。	
	因为花了太多的精力在房子上,我就没有拿出更多的时间亲近神。虽然我也参加教会团契的各项活动,但我最清楚的,就是付给服事房子的时间,远远超过我亲近神和事奉神的时间。内心非常不喜乐,对家人也没有耐性,缺少宽容心和爱心。
	从二○二○年三月份疫情的缘故,教会在互联网上聚会,待在家里有更多的时间思考,我究竟为什么而活?我设立的生活方式的意义在哪里?自己累个半死,人也得罪,神也得罪,我是一个合神心意的人吗?我还反覆检测自己受洗后一年的灵命,感到自己做一个基督徒还没有到位。在很多事情上我都按照自己的想法去做,没有真正寻求主的心意。	
	而我的主耶稣基督却像圣经《路加福音第十五章》里的那个浪子的父亲,祂给我自由意志,允许我做自己想要做的事。而任性的我,却为自己的错误而付出了代价,白白地受了那么多的苦,而神却一直陪伴和带领我。虽然在这个过程中,祂给我有很多次的管教,但在管教之后,我获得的是更多的恩典—就是我的生命有了突破。因为「耶和华啊,你所管教,用律法所教训的人是有福的!你使他在遭难的日子得享平安,惟有恶人陷在所挖的坑中。因为耶和华必不丢弃他的百姓,也不离弃他的产业。审判要转向公义,心里正直的必都随从。」(诗篇九十四:十二至十五)神的灵使我明白,因为自己的欲望,我白白受了三年的苦。我们原本就是在地上搭帐篷的,住哪里不重要,住多大面积也不那么重要,最重要的是大部分时间都要亲近神,神给我们的恩典是够用的。	
	从二○二一年二月初,我下了决心把房子登上市场售卖。那时正是热卖抢房时机,我的房子条件也好,但买家和仲介所出的价格,我并不满意,很难立即出售。为了按我自己的满意价格卖出去,在跟仲介的合约到期后,我就自己卖。我把房子开放任人参观了无数次,还是没有人要买。眼看到其他房源很快便都被抢购了,而我的房子就是不能卖出,每月要支付三仟元费用。
	因为疫情的缘故,我住在法拉盛,几乎每天从长岛到法拉盛,来回都塞车。精力几乎被耗尽,精神状态非常不好。我焦虑、灰心,再也折磨不起了。那种郁闷状态持续了一个月的时间,而那时,却是我跟主最亲近的时间。我每天迫切的祷告,在神面前认罪,承认自己爱慕世界多过爱主,求主赦免、怜悯我。我对主说:「我愿意把生命中一切都交托给你。」事实上,神并没有因为我的祷告,而立即让我的房子卖出去,而是藉着祂的子民,把祂的爱传递给我,安抚我的心。
	祂藉着主内的弟兄姐妹们来帮助我渡过难关。终于,在同年八月中,神挑选了一个买主,而且出的价格就是我最满意的价格。我为什么说那是神做的工呢?因为这个买主没有孩子要上学,而愿意买好学区的房子。买主特别喜欢我的房子和傢俱,屋内所有的东西,她全都要,愿意付钱,只想拎包入住。而我正愁傢俱没地方放,扔掉又可惜。最后在十一月二日交易成功,房子顺利过户。两方过户律师都说,这是他们经历时间最短,最简单,最顺利的一次交易。	
	透过我二○一八年买房,住进去三年又卖房的经历,让我学到了属灵的功课:神允许我遭遇困难,祂一直陪伴我;我紧紧抓住主,当祂看到我真的认罪、悔改了,功课学到了,最后祂拯救我。我感恩,神管教我是为了爱,爱里面没有惧怕,我明白了,要因为爱神而顺服,不是因为被管教而顺服。我们要信主有奇妙的能力,改变我们的个性。最感恩的是被主改变,好处都在我身上,有平安喜乐。
	此外,神赐我亮光,让我看到自己还有很多需要被改变的地方。我还需要操练新性情,有同理心,怜悯心,多理解身边的人的感受和遭遇。让那些需要被服事的人,愿意打开心扉,跟我诉说她的需求,我便可以把主的爱传播出去,使更多人得救赎,有蒙福的人生。求主继续带领我前方服事的道路。感谢主的恩典!荣耀颂赞归于主!

感谢神的预备和安排
        方淼衡姊妹感恩见证分享	
因为你们立志行事,都是神在你们心里运行,为要成就祂的美意。(腓立比书二:十三)	
	我在香港出生和长大,在中学阶段,有一个基督徒同学,带我去教会,于一九八八年受洗。二○一二年结婚移居美国,这也是我人生一个最勇敢的决定。	
	未信主前,我是一个做事有计划和谨慎的人,习惯有规律的生活,觉得这样才有安全感,可以靠自己的能力,在自己控制下进行各样的事情。若有多一些的改变或不依从原定的计划而行,便会感到十分紧张和恐惧。
	信主后,我的改变并非一朝一夕的,而是渐渐地发觉无论有怎样周详的计划,也不是能够如愿,我就开始学习信靠神。有一个在纽约的中学同学,介绍了一个主内的弟兄给我认识,但是我在香港,他却远在美国,我们之间有两三年的情谊,只是通过电邮沟通。有一次他来香港探我,我们见面交往了两天,他便回到纽约,我们便继续以电邮联络。直至二○○九年,我的爸爸突然离世后,又有一个很要好的旧同学脑癌復发而离世,使我的人生有很大的冲击,感到人生无常,不可以让自己后悔。	
	本来觉得两地恋是不切实际的,所以不想开始。因为惧怕失败和没有安全感。亲人离世的两件事情,改变了这个看法,觉得要勇敢地行出第一步,祈祷求神让我明白祂的旨意。后来,我们由交往到结婚,一起见面所相处过的日子不足两个月之后,我便放下香港的家人、工作和教会,一个人独自来到美国这个陌生的地方。做如此冒险的事,绝对不会是以前的我,但那一刻就知道这是神的心意,我便专心信靠祂,成为「过埠新娘」移居美国。	
	感谢神!我们结婚后,一切的所有需要,包括金钱、工作、居住的地方和养育孩子等,神都有祂的美意作最好的预备和安排。虽然我常常都有软弱的地方,但更相信神的恩典和祝福常与我们同在,平安喜乐地行走在主的道上。
二○二二年六月十一日

    I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?

    I would like to express my thanks to the writer for rescuing me from this circumstance. After looking out throughout the world wide web and meeting strategies that were not powerful, I thought my entire life was well over. Living without the presence of strategies to the difficulties you have sorted out as a result of this blog post is a serious case, as well as the ones that would have badly damaged my career if I had not encountered the blog. Your good talents and kindness in maneuvering all the pieces was very helpful. I am not sure what I would've done if I hadn't come upon such a step like this. I can now look ahead to my future. Thank you so much for your specialized and sensible help. I will not be reluctant to suggest your blog post to anyone who requires guide about this topic.
