禁食40天反思。。。 Reflection on fasting 40 days…

这一次,2011年10月3日一直到11月11日的40天禁食,应该是我第三次40天全禁吧,21天全禁也做过两次,几次都碰到我生日的时候,这一次也不例外。。。
若不是神,我无法想像也无法做到这样长时间的禁食。所以,我没什么厉害,也没什么了不起,不必称赞和羡慕我,若神的灵没有带领、感动及加添力量,这是不可能的事,我也不会想要这样做。。。

This time, the 40-day fast from 03/10/11 to 11/11/11 has to be my third time fasting 40 days completely. I also did 21-day full fast twice, and a few times my fasting period coincided with my birthday, this time is no exception…
If not for God, I cannot imagine and I will not be able too to go on such a long fast. So, there is nothing great or super about me, there is no need to compliment or admire me, if the Spirit of God does not lead, prompt or give me strength, this is impossible and I will not want to do it as well…

有人问我一些健康、体力、营养的问题等等,问我怎样处理、克服或解决等等。。。
我也没答案,我只能说我每天一样操作,一样上班,服事等等,健康没出问题,我觉得反而变得更健康。。。

Some people asked me questions with regard to health, physical strength and nutrition issues etc, they asked how I handled, overcame or dealt with and so on…
I have no answer. All I can say is, I still functioned like normal everyday, I still went to work and serve etc, my health is alright, and in fact I feel I have become healthier…

 

我只记得第一次禁40天的时候,第39天的早上发现自己躺在房间门口,可能血糖太低突然起来时晕倒了,但当然我一点也没受伤。也是在那一次开始吃的时候,第一次上厕所排泄粪便很困难,甚至流血了;我就向上帝祷告医治,也“提醒”他我禁食是为了他的国,马上就得医治了!

所以一切都得归荣耀给上帝,没有他是不可能的!

All I remember was the first time when I was having the 40-day full fast, I found myself lying near my bedroom door in the morning on the 39th day, perhaps my blood sugar was too low and I fainted while getting up abruptly, but of course I was not injured in any way. And it was also that time when I began to eat again, I had great difficulty the first time I went to the toilet to excrete my motion, I even bled. So I prayed to God foe healing and “reminded” Him that I fasted for His kingdom, and I was healed immediately!

That is why we must give all the glory to God, it is impossible without Him!

 

最后一次禁40天是好多年以前的事了,一直不敢想像还有下一次,因为那种40天不吃东西的情景想起来也太恐怖了,人再爱漂亮、再怕肥胖,还是不能不吃东西的。所以里面会“很怕”上帝突然又感动我全禁40天。。。其实这种“担心”真的是多余的,因为倘若是来自上帝的感动,他自然会帮助你完成!就如同现在,不知不觉又开始全禁40天了。。。

The last time I went on a 40-day full fast was quite a few years back, since then I did not dare to imagine another time, because the scenario of not eating anything at all for 40 days was kind of scary to think about. No matter how beauty conscious you are, how scared of being overweight you are, you still cannot do without food. So inside me, I was kind of “scared” that God might prompt me to do another 40-day full fast… Actually this kind of “worry” is really unnecessary because if the prompting is really from God, He naturally will help you to accomplish it! Just like now, all of a sudden we have begun the 40-day full fast again…

 

老实说,这一次全禁40天的感动年头就有了,我只是等候上帝的时间。起初也有一点担心自己是否做得到,因为太久没这样做了。。。可是当我看到很多年轻人都愿意陪着我一起全禁40天的时候,那莫名的力量就从我心里涌现,我就不再惧怕了。。。

这一次的禁食,我比以往更认真和兴奋,心里也充满期待,要看到神要做又新又奇妙的事,也期待神每天的启示和感动;所以我这一次会每天记录灵里的领受和感动,尽量每天都在这里刊登我的“禁食日记”,好跟你们分享,希望也会鼓励到你们,阿们!

Honestly, this prompting to have a full 40-day fast came at the beginning of the year, I was only waiting for God’s timing. At first I was kind of worried whether I could do it as after all I have not done it for a long time… but when I saw many young people are willing to accompany me through this journey of fasting 40 days without food, that unexplained strength started to well up from my heart, and I no longer feel afraid…

The fasting this time, I am feeling more serious and excited than all the previous ones, and my heart is full of expectancy to see God doing new and wonderful things. I also long for God to reveal His heart everyday. So this time I will record what I receive or sense in my spirit, and will try my best to post here everyday as “Fasting Diary” to share with you all, hopefully this will encourage you all as well, Amen!

多年以前,多年以后。。。 Many years before and many years later…

找到了这张很有纪念性的照片,都不记得是哪一年禁食40天后所拍的了。。。应该都有十年了吧?当时朋友看到我,不知道我在禁食,都劝我看医生,担心我得了什么病!哈哈哈!

禁食长时间,体形面貌难免会有变化,但带来灵里的力量,而且过后身体反而会更健康呢。。。所以很值得啦!

然而若不是神清楚的带领和感动,我们可不能随便长时间禁食,如21天或40天都没吃等等。。。因那反而会伤身体,也对自己不好。。。

再者,若不是有圣灵的带领和力量,两天不吃都受不了啦,更何况40天!!所以,我有过两次禁食40天完全不吃,也有两次21天完全不吃的经历,对我来说是我生命中经历过其中最明显的神迹。。。

现在因暂时没有要长时间禁食的感动,回想起那段完全没吃的日子,真的有点不可思议,也真的有点恐怖。。。但时间一到,若圣灵又带领或感动,突然间又会很奇妙的做到了。。。

Found this very memorable photograph, taken after my 40-day fast, can’t even remember which year it was already… Must be more than 10 years ago? At that time when friends saw me, not knowing I was fasting, they even advised me to go see a doctor for fear that I might have some illness! Haha!

Going on a long fast, your looks and body size will surely change, but it wll bring spiritual strength and after that you will become healthier too… so it is really worth it!

But if not for God’s clear direction and conviction, we must not simply go on a long fast like not eating for 21 or 40 days… because that would instead hurt your body and is not good for yourself…

Also, if not for the direction and power of the Holy Spirit, normally I can’t even stand not eating for two days, let alone 40 days!! So, my two experiences of fasting for 40 days and twice 21 days were truly some of the most obvious miracles I have ever experinced in my life…

Now at this moment, as I do not have the conviction to go on a long fast, to recall those days of not eating, it is really unimagineable, and rather scary too… But when the time comes, and if the Holy Spirit leads and convicts again, suddenly and miraculously you will be able to do it again….

多年以前。。。  Many years before…
