国内佈道會 Ministry

我接下來的行程-新加坡和巴淡島。。。 My upcoming schedule – Singapore and Batam…

 

 

過後,6月29日(五)至7月1日(日),我也會到柔佛新山服事,稍後再把聚會時間、地點等放上來。。。

After that, I will also be ministering in JB, Johor from June 29 (Fri) to July 1 (Sun), I’ll post the time and venues etc later…

這樣算是宣教嗎。。。? Is this considered a mission…?

 

那天我們從實兆遠搭船過去邦咯島宣教。。。
在碼頭我們好像遊客般拍照留念,因為。。。哇!這裡景色未免太漂亮了吧?

That day we took a ferry from Sitiawan to Pangkor Island for a mission…
At the jetty, we took photos for remembrance like tourists because… wow! The scenery here is really beautiful!

 

這簡直就是在國外吧?
整個團隊的人都失控的東奔西跑去拍照,因為多數沒到過國外,不能怪他們。。。

This is so like an overseas country!
Members of our team all lost control and ran everywhere to take pictures! Can’t blame them as most of them have never been overseas…

 

連我們酷酷的田聖按耐不住也留下倩影。。。

Including our Mr. Cool Daniel, he could not resist not taking picture too…

 

安排我們所有的聚會的Lydia姐妹非常照顧我們,也充當我們的導遊。。。

Sister Lydia who arranged all our meetings took very good care of us, and she was also our tour guide…

 

這麼舒服漂亮的環境算是宣教嗎?
其實只要是做主的工,無論甚麼環境都是宣教,重要的是上帝要你去哪裡,你就去那裡。

Is it considered a mission to go to such a comfortable and beautiful place?
Actually as long as you are doing God’s work, regardless of any type of environment, it is a mission. The important thing is go where God wants you to go.

 

 

這一帶有很多有錢人,你看這些私人游艇就知道。。。
嗯。。。其實我們只是路過這裡罷了,我們去的是漁村啦。。。而我們搭的也不是這些船。。。

There are a lot of rich people here, you can tell from the private yachts…
Hmm… actually we were just passing by this area, we were going to some fishing village… and we were not taking these boats too…

 

我們是搭乘一般的渡輪到島上啦。。。但也很舒服。。。

We were taking the ordinary ferry to go to the island… but it was very comfortable too…

 

半夜回程搭的船就有一點緊張。。。
還好這一次都是帶年輕人,整個團隊就我最老!

The boats that ferried us home in the middle of the night were even more exciting…
Just as well I only brought young people this time, I was the oldest in the team!

 

當時還下一點雨,但感謝主雨不太大,要不然都變落湯雞了。。。
大家動作也不敢太大,因船會搖撼,有些人不會游泳。。。
有些變得很安靜,不敢說話,怕講話也會加重重量。。。

It was drizzling at that time, but thank God not too heavy or we would have been drenched….
Everyone minimized their movements too because the boats were swaying, and some do not know how to swim…
Some became very quiet for fear that talking would increase our weight…

 

半夜冒雨在海上搭小船真的很刺激。。。
而且在黑暗中拍照真的效果也很特別,你看下面那張,起初我還以為前面拍到的是甚麼。。。

Riding a small boat in the rain in the middle of the night is really an exciting experience…
Also, to take photos in the dark, you could see some very special effects too…. see the photo below, look at the front, at first I thought what that was that I captured…

 

 

漂亮的房子,美麗的家庭。。。 Nice house and beautiful family…

那天到实兆远布道。。。
认识了这一家美丽的人,他们很恩待我们,孩子们都把房间让出来给我们住五个晚上,真不好意思。
不但如此,太太还充当我们司机。。。

That day we went for a mission in Sitiawan…
We got to know this beautiful family, they were very kind to us. The kids all gave up their rooms to accommodate us for five nights, e felt rather bad.
Not only that, the wife even became our driver…

 

他们的房子好漂亮、好大,但不见得有漂亮房子的人就愿意麻烦自己来接待你。。。
要接待人,心胸也要漂亮和宽大。

Their house is very nice and big, but not everyone who has a beautiful house is willing to trouble themselves to receive you…
To receive people into your home, your heart has to be beautiful and big too.

 

 

当然,请不要误会,我们并没要求要住这样的房子,是他们自己爱心开放与接待!
一般上,我们都不介意挤在一间房,特别是在比较缺乏的地方,重要的是要把福音传出去。无论什么状况,我们都要感恩,感谢上帝愿意使用我们这样的人来事奉祂。。。

Of course, please do not misunderstand, we did not request to stay in this kind of houses, it was their own hospitality to open their home and receive us!
Normally, we do not mind squeezing in one room especially when we go places that are lacking, the important thing is to share the Gospel. We will give thanks in either situation, that God would even use people like us to serve Him…

 

我们要学习的是,对别人怎样接待我们,我们不应当要求多多;但我们接待别人时,我们就要力求做得最好。

What we ought to learn is, do not demand a lot from others to treat us very well, but when we are doing something for others, then strive to do the best for them.

 

谢谢上帝让我们住的那么舒服,虽然在赶路,却也有很好的休息。。。

Thank God for giving us such a comfortable place to stay, though we had a hectic time, we did have very good rest too…

 

匆匆忙忙的几天,很快就过去,让我们在实兆远留下美好的回忆。。。

The busy schedule went by very quickly, we left behind beautiful memories in Sitiawan…
