我們天堂再見

清彤,R.I.P. 1991-2016
昨天九月三十日星期五上午11點多,清彤回天家了,給了自己一宿恢復情緒,還是感謝神的美善,讓我們相識,成為主內姐妹,彼此陪伴走過一段,只想靜靜地收拾起涙水,靠主喜樂,我的情感是柔軟,然而內心是平靜的,因為知道也有信心我們與清彤必再相聚。

這是Anita昨天想我做的影片,今早趕著做出來,沒有什麼準備,只是看著照片懷念一些片段,只想最自然的表露⋯⋯

妳入院前説想來我們家,我不知道為什麼妳不舒服,卻想要來,記得那天聚會完,妳暈眩,我問妳:「仲想來我屋企'嗎?」握緊我的手的妳閉著眼睛,用廣東話堅定地說:「想!我想!」雖然那時我也很累了,但我又如何忍心拒絕呢?

 當來到時妳卻倒在沙發,而我們幾個「大人」,Jeff, Anita,Kevin 和我則在飯桌吃著義大利薄餅「比薩」談笑風生,因為是聚會完臨時起義的決定,我們在Costco買了pizza等妳們過來,見妳還無心吃晚餐,我心疼,於是想𨍭移妳的注意力,知道妳喜歡音樂讓妳聽音樂,或是唱唱歌,我們頭一次一起在我家唱歌,妳開心地不得了,咳嗽休息一下又唱,終於肚子餓了,吃吃喝喝,聊聊,多數時候我們只是聊天,聽音樂,單純的相聚卻是放開了心懷,以赤子之心相會,當我也回那天上更美的家鄉時,我們一起在天父的殿中瞻仰祂的榮美⋯⋯

“有一件事,我曾求耶和華,我仍要尋求: 就是一生一世住在耶和華的殿中, 瞻仰祂的榮美,在祂的殿裏求問。”-詩篇‬ ‭27:4‬
“One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭27:4‬ ‭ESV‬


【传12:7】[和合本]塵土仍歸於地,靈仍歸於賜靈的 神。
[ESV]and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

【约3:16】[和合本]「神愛世人,甚至將他的獨生子賜給他們,叫一切信他的,不至滅亡,反得永生。
[ESV]"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

【来11:1】[和合本]信就是所望之事的實底,是未見之事的確據。
[ESV]Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

萬事均有定時
“凡事都有定期, 天下萬務都有定時。 生有時,死有時; 栽種有時,拔出所栽種的也有時; 殺戮有時,醫治有時; 拆毀有時,建造有時; 哭有時,笑有時; 哀慟有時,跳舞有時; 拋擲石頭有時,堆聚石頭有時; 懷抱有時,不懷抱有時; 尋找有時,失落有時; 保守有時,捨棄有時; 撕裂有時,縫補有時; 靜默有時,言語有時; 喜愛有時,恨惡有時; 爭戰有時,和好有時。 這樣看來 ,做事的人在他的勞碌上有甚麼益處呢? 我見神叫世人勞苦,使他們在其中受經練。 神造萬物,各按其時成為美好,又將永生 安置在世人心裏。然而神從始至終的作為,人不能參透。 我知道世人,莫強如終身喜樂行善; 並且人人吃喝,在他一切勞碌中享福,這也是神的恩賜。 我知道神一切所做的都必永存;無所增添,無所減少。神這樣行,是要人在他面前存敬畏的心。 現今的事早先就有了,將來的事早已也有了,並且神使已過的事重新再來 。 我又見日光之下,在審判之處有奸惡,在公義之處也有奸惡。 我心裏說,神必審判義人和惡人;因為在那裏,各樣事務,一切工作,都有定時。 我心裏說, 這乃 為世人的緣故,是神要試驗他們,使他們覺得自己 不過像 獸一樣。 因為世人遭遇的,獸也遭遇,所遭遇的都是一樣:這個怎樣死,那個也怎樣死,氣息都是一樣。人不能強於獸,都是虛空。 都歸一處,都是出於塵土,也都歸於塵土。 誰知道人的靈是往上升,獸的魂是下入地呢? 故此,我見人莫強如在他經營的事上喜樂,因為這是他的分。他身後的事誰能使他回來得見呢?

A Time for Everything
“For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to build up. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance. A time to scatter stones and a time to gather stones. A time to embrace and a time to turn away. A time to search and a time to quit searching. A time to keep and a time to throw away. A time to tear and a time to mend. A time to be quiet and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time for peace. What do people really get for all their hard work? I have seen the burden God has placed on us all. Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end. So I concluded there is nothing better than to be happy and enjoy ourselves as long as we can. And people should eat and drink and enjoy the fruits of their labor, for these are gifts from God. And I know that whatever God does is final. Nothing can be added to it or taken from it. God’s purpose is that people should fear him. What is happening now has happened before, and what will happen in the future has happened before, because God makes the same things happen over and over again. I also noticed that under the sun there is evil in the courtroom. Yes, even the courts of law are corrupt! I said to myself, “In due season God will judge everyone, both good and bad, for all their deeds.” I also thought about the human condition—how God proves to people that they are like animals. For people and animals share the same fate—both breathe and both must die. So people have no real advantage over the animals. How meaningless! Both go to the same place—they came from dust and they return to dust. For who can prove that the human spirit goes up and the spirit of animals goes down into the earth? So I saw that there is nothing better for people than to be happy in their work. That is our lot in life. And no one can bring us back to see what happens after we die.”
