逆境也有神的美意 張正氣弟兄感恩見証分享(二)

「照著我所切慕、所盼望的,沒有一事叫我羞愧,只要凡事放膽,無論是生是死,總叫基督在我身上照常顯大。因我活著就是基督,我死了就有益處。」(腓立比書一:二十至二十一)

我在十年內經歷了四次苦難,第一次是心臟出了大問題,第二次是脊椎神經出問題,第三次是得了惡性皮膚癌和第四次是全家都感染了新冠病毒。

在第四次苦難中,雖然被病毒感染,給我們帶來了痛苦,但沒有造成嚴重傷害,我和師母已年逾八十,是屬於最危險的人群,死亡率是最高的,這就是神對我們的憐憫。在四次苦難中,讓我懂得了神是在苦難的爐中揀選我們,逆境也有神的美意。

還有兩件事與大家分享。第一件事,我患失眠症已有五十多年,中、西醫和睡眠專科醫生都看過,各種藥物和偏方都用過,也無效。但從這次康復的後半期開始,睡眠狀況有了變化:睡不著的時間變短了,深度睡眠的時間變長了!這不是偶爾一兩天,而是連續兩週多的事實。

第二件事,這些年來飯量越來越少,師母說我是在吃貓食。最近,胃口好了很多,兩碗飯也吃得下了!這兩件事讓我很驚奇。是什麼原因呢?我無法解釋!是身體需要嗎?那我過去就不需要嗎?我上網去查,只有失眠、入睡困難和食欲不振的後遺症,完全找不到我這種例證。我想起主的話:「我要恩待誰就恩待誰。」(出埃及記三十三:十九)是神在醫治我嗎?我不知道,但還能有誰呢?讓我和師母深為感動的,就是弟兄姊妹的愛心!儘管我們不聲張,但電話、禱告,煮的湯,做的菜……等,一直在支援著和溫暖著我們!在這充滿肅殺之氣的世界上,這裡有神的同在,這裡是另一個天地!生活在有神有愛的大家庭裡,我們是蒙福的人。

三、結語

疫病橫行,聞之色變!人人避之猶恐不及。誰也不想「中招」是很自然的。但透過學習,我們會有新的認識:經歷苦難—雖然有痛苦磨難,但其中也必有神的美意!然而我們常常只關注在苦難上,而忽略了神的美意,忽略了這個最重要的方面。以我這次「中招」為例,神的美意在哪裡呢?有兩方面是很清楚的:第一,雖有痛苦,但沒有重大傷害;第二,神讓我在靈裡面有所得著。我確信自己是蒙恩的。為什麼呢?因為我不是躲過去的,而是神帶領我渡過去的;我不是僅僅知道關於苦難的教導,而是切身領受到了神應許的真實;我不是從一次染病的苦難中學到了功課,而是在十年四次的苦難經歷中都學習到這樣的功課。我深信這絕不是碰巧,而是神的作為,神的愛,神的恩典。讓我想起約伯說的那句話:「我從前風聞有你,現在親眼看見你。」(約伯記四十二:五)我親自看到、領受到了主透過苦難向我所的行神跡奇事,祂是一直與我們同在的,祂的應許永不落空!

禱告

慈愛的天父:我的心哪,你要稱頌耶和華,不可忘記祂的一切恩惠。你赦免我的一切罪孽,醫治我的一切疾病。你救贖我脫離死亡,使我所願的得以知足。我在年老的時候,雖然歷經苦難,但你護祐我一次又一次安然渡過,繼續給我事奉的機會,是何等恩典!天離地何等的高,你的慈愛向敬畏你的人也是何等的大。東離西有多遠,你叫我們的過犯,離我們也有多遠。我要永遠感恩,永遠忠心!一切的榮耀都歸於你!求主垂聽我的禱告,奉耶穌基督的名,阿們!(全文完)

在神沒有難成的事

緬甸神學院施興蘭同學得救蒙召見證分享

惟耶和華坐著為王,直到永遠,祂已經為審判設擺他的寶座。祂要按公義審判世界,按正直判斷萬民。耶和華又要給受欺壓的人做高臺,在患難的時候做高臺。(詩篇九至九)

我出生在緬甸南山一個美麗的茶園。家裏有爸爸、媽媽、姊姊、弟弟和我。爸爸信佛教,媽媽是基督徒,所以我成長在一個不怎麼美滿的家庭。因著媽媽的帶領下,我在教會的團契中成長。

爸爸在我十三歲那年去世後,母兼父職,我們三姊弟都是媽媽一手養大的,爸爸是她、媽媽也是她,挺不容易的。她要我們都要學習緬甸文和中文,不可讓其他任何人小看我們,一個弱女子養育三個孩子真不容易。藉著主耶穌的看顧、恩待和憐恤,我們都健康地成長。

因為就如先知耶利米的禱告:「主耶和華啊,你曾用大能和伸出來的膀臂創造天地,在你沒有難成的事。你施慈愛於千萬人,又將父親的罪孽報應在他後世子孫的懷中,是至大全能的神,萬軍之耶和華是你的名。謀事有大略,行事有大能,注目觀看世人一切的舉動,為要照各人所行的和他做事的結果報應他。」(耶利米書三十二:十七至十九)在神是沒有難成的事。

在十四歲那年,第一次參加教會舉辦的退修會。在退修會裡被神呼召,受到聖靈的感動,我要回應神的呼召和神的大愛,就決定將來長大後,要進神學院讀神學,獻身事奉主。因為媽媽特別支持我讀神學,作神的僕人。姊姊已結婚,過著幸福的生活,家人的生計有弟弟扛著,不必擔心生活的問題。我很清楚上帝的呼召,我一定要讀完神學,服事又真又活的上帝。

但是就讀神學院期間,因為中文的表達能力很差,學業成績不佳,困難重重,就想放棄讀神學,可是媽媽很期望我能夠完成神學課程來服侍主,當她知道我不想讀神學的那一刻,就開始很難過地哭了一天一夜,她認為我不唸神學是因為家境貧窮,其實我是因為學習有困難,才做出這個決定。

因為媽媽太擔心我的前途,常常痛哭流淚,就生病了。她的膝蓋經常很痛楚,坐立不安,行走也有困難,這都是我不守承諾和逃避責任的結果,所以我很後悔當時為什麼做了那麼衝動的決定。我是被神求求呼召的,就算怎麼跑、 怎麼逃也逃不掉,而且還付出了很大的代價。雖然我有很多的不足,但是很感謝神呼召我來讀神學,使用微不足道的我。「惟有基督在我們還作罪人的時候為我們死,神的愛就在此向我們顯明瞭。」(羅馬書五:八)

感謝神的呼召,我雖然在學習遇到很多困難,但我仍然要繼續努力,完成神學課程之後,忠心服事主,向世人傳福音,讓更多人蒙福,得著主的救贖,成為神的兒女,有永生的盼望。我要成為主使用的器皿,不辜負媽媽和家人對我的期望。奉主耶穌基督得勝之名祈求。阿們。

基督在近處

-慈繩愛索

義大利齊諾亞城一名潛水夫突發其想,要在水底設立一尊基督的雕像,讓住在附近的居民和死在水中的人「能夠」接近基督。當他提出此一構想,竟然反應十分熱烈。從國內四面八方,許多人把銅器送來給他,以便熔鑄銅像。

不久,八呎高的基督銅像鑄成了,他便選擇一天,把九百磅重的基督銅像沉入水底五十六呎深處。潛水夫說:「如今,水手和附近的居民都很容易親近基督了。」這人的用意雖好,可惜他不了解基督不受時空限制的真理。一尊基督的雕像並不能叫人與主「更親近」,不管我們在那裡,基督都與我們同在。由於基督不是我們肉眼所能看見,因此有些信徒無法體驗到祂真實的同在。其實,藉著內住的聖靈,基督永遠同我們在一起。

二○二二年四月卅日
