至于那份我没开的礼物。。。 Concerning that gift I did not have a chance to open…

Posted date : 13.10.10

上个星期他传简讯给我，他说他有一个小小的要求。。。
他说礼物他还收着，他可以再把礼物送给我吗。。。只是礼物纸有一点“烂”了。。。
我没回答。。。

你们说：
1）他为什么突然有勇气向我提出这个要求呢？

2）我该接受那一份礼物吗？为什么？

3）虽然我没说可以或不可以，后来又发生什么事？

Last week he suddenly texted me and said he had a small request…
He said he still had that gift with him, could he give me that gift again… just that the gift wrap is kind of worn-out already…
I did not answer…

You tell me:
1) Why did he suddenly have the courage to request that from me?

2) Should I accept the gift? Why?

3）Though I did not say yes or no, what actually happened after that?

    1）因为那礼物只适合您用，而且他感觉您已原谅他了。

    2）接不接受应该是对方给不给，哪里好意思自已讨的。应该收因为是对方的心意。

    3）您没有说可以或不可以，他不敢冒冒然给。

    (本来生病很累，看到要动脑猜答案，哎哟！可是动完脑又没那庅累了，原来是懒惰病。。。)

    1) He did say earlier that he will keep the gift first and when he has change and solve his problem he will bring back the gift. Does this imply that he has changed?

    2) If he is the 浪子回头 why not give him a chance. Of course he has to be sincere. Give him a chance to explain becos I believe everyone should be given a second chance. Not everyone can be your sons so if you have chosen him in the first place, he should a person whom pastor care.

    3) He texted you again? or he came with the gift… (Guess only)

    Praise the Lord that he could humble himself and call you.
    Guess you might have mixed feelings..but above all , a thankful heart.

    If Its me..
    1) Why did he suddenly have the courage to request that from me?
    Ans: Its between him and God.

    2) Should I accept the gift? Why?
    Ans: Yes, cos we love because God first love us.

    3）Though I did not say yes or no, what actually happened after that?
    Ans: :) …. Reconciliation and restoration.

    Hallelujah!!

      Hallelujah! Praise and thank God! Amen!
      My answer is more or less like Low’s. He was trained by Pastor and he did said that he would pray hard that one day you would forgive him. Maybe he read certain sign that you have slowly forgiven him for hurting you. So he summed up his courage to sms you.

    Hello pastor,how are you? haha your three questions suddenly make me think of 3-in-one coffee….1) He knows you still love and cares for him n he had the same feeling for you too.2) Yes,it would be nice n kind,cos make both of you happy.3)He understands you too well so before you said yes or no,he already send to your home..Praise God its a nice touching story….Accept,thankyou,n open….haha wonder what is that gift that can keep so long….not out of fashion.??

    A) 我想他应该已能达成他的承诺了吧。。。
    B) 礼物收了这么久。。我想他一定很重视。。就算他目前的能力还没能实现他的承诺但他的 心意和认真我想好好珍惜。。也许还可以把他带到阿爸天父面前让阿爸天父改变他？
    C)牧师是个知道自己要做什么，什么是不适合做的人。。我不想猜因为我相信不论发生什么事都会有你的爱和你爱上帝的心在里面虽然有时也还会受伤。。也还会感到疲累。。。。。

    1)
    Because he has repaint.
    2)
    Yes, to know what is inside.
    3）
    You accepted the gift because of his sincerity.

    Intriguing post, wonder what’s the outcome… could easily turn into a story like say… A Parable on Gifting! though not totally related but the above reminds one of the song “一件禮物” by Heavenly Melody ;p
