有没有那一种感觉，有时候做了一个梦，你很想留在梦里面，不要醒来；或者醒来了，倒回去睡很希望能够回到刚才的梦境里，但无奈却回不去了。。。

Ever had that feeling, that sometimes you had a dream, and you wished you could stay on in that dream and not wake up; or when you did wake up, you went back to sleep hoping that you would return to that dream again, but unfortunately you could not…

我最近就有两个梦我希望能待久一点在里面，一个是梦见主耶稣行神迹，让一个荒芜的山坡成为一个丰盛的果园！在梦里我很开心，甚至高兴的哭了，一直跟主耶稣说谢谢。。。

Recently I had two dreams which I wished I could stay on longer in the dreams. One was I dreamt of the Lord Jesus performing a miracle by turning a barren hilltop into a fruitful orchard! I was very happy in the dream that I even shed tears of joy, and I kept saying thanks to Jesus…

那果园很美，让我很开心喜乐，当然不想那么快醒来。。。
后来醒来时，我很想念那园子，但我知道那是主在鼓励我，要我信靠祂，祂是能够使无变为有的神！

It was such a beautiful orchard and it made me so happy and joyful, and of course I did not want to wake up so fast…
When I finally woke up, I missed the garden, but I knew it was the Lord encouraging me to trust in Him, for He is the God who can create something out of nothing!

至于另外一个梦又是关于什么呢。。。？
时候晚了，改天再跟你们分享吧，呵呵呵！

As for the other dream, what was it about…?
Well, it is getting late, I will share with you some other time, heeheehee…?

在人生的道路上，偶尔停下脚步，整理思绪一下，稍微等候再继续旅程是很重要的。。。
因为有时候脚步太急促、步伐太匆忙，会不慎摔了一跤，又或者因太忙碌和急促做决定，而忽略了一些重要的细节。。。

Along the journey of life, it is very important to occasionally halt your steps, reorganize your thoughts and ponder and wait for a while before continuing on your journey…
Because sometimes we are too hasty in our steps or too rush in our walk that we can carelessly suffer a fall; or when we are too busy and make our decisions too quickly, we may overlook some crucial details…

能坐下来休息一下，对自己体力也有帮助，让自己重新得力，毕竟休息就是为了走更远的路。。。
但也不要停顿太久而变懒散或忘记前方还有路。。。

To be able to sit and rest a while is good for the body too, allow your strength to be renewed, because after all resting is to prepare for a longer journey…
But do not stop for too long too for you might become slack or forget there is still some road to walk on ahead…

休息等候不是漫无目标的，一定要仰望天上的父，看看祂有什么指示，有什么话说，让祂指引我们。。。
毕竟我们走的是天国的路，祂的话是我们脚前的灯和路上的光。

We are not to rest and wait aimlessly too, we must look up and set our eyes on our Heavenly Father, and see whether He has any instruction or has anything to say, let Him guide us…
After all we are walking on the road to heaven, His Word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.

这是续上一篇“这凳子什么颜色？”  还没回答你们的问题，一拖就拖了那么久。。。真的很忙啦！
答案是，这凳子是亮丽粉红色！
啊？有没有搞错？？

是的，它真的是粉红色，至少，之前。。。

This is a continuation of the unanswered question from the previous post “What colour is this stool?”… it has been dragging for so long… I am truly very busy!

Well, the answer is, this stool is shocking pink in colour!
Excuse me, are you sure??

Yes, it is indeed pink in colour, or at least, was…

原来教会招待员很有心帮我预备了这小凳子，以方便我摆放杯子，可是竟然是很夸张的粉红色。。。我就问他们没别的颜色吗？
他们说店里还有别的颜色，就问我要什么颜色？我随口说说黑色吧。。。

然后等了好几天，不见有凳子出现，我就问他们凳子呢？
他们说因为店里没黑色凳子，所以他们拿去托人喷黑漆，那要等好几天。。。

我说，哎唷，干嘛那么夸张？别的颜色也可以啦，不必那么麻烦。。。
他们说要给我最喜欢的。。。让我听了很感动。。。真的很认真的服事！

The church ushers were very kind in preparing this little stool for me to conveniently place my mug, but it was shocking pink in colour… so I asked them whether there was no other colour available?
They said there were still other colours in the shop, and asked what colour I preferred. I just mentioned in passing something like black…

Then for a few days I did not see any stool at all, so I asked them what happened to it?
They said there was no black-coloured stool in the shop, so they took it to someone to spray paint it black, that would take a few days…

I said, oh come on, there was no need to go to that extent, other colours are acceptable too, no need to be so troublesome…
They said they wanted to give me what I like best… I was rather touched hearing that… they really serve very seriously!

其实，这凳子也让我想起主耶稣的爱，不介意牺牲自己，披上黑色，只为了祝福他人。。。
我们自己又是否愿意放下自己把快乐带给别人呢？

Actually the little stool also reminds me of the love of Jesus, that sacrifice to be willingly covered by blackness, just to bless others…
Are we willing to lay down ourselves then to bring happiness to others?
