239 英語單字的記憶探討(一) Born to Death 道成肉身 12/25/2020
Our heavenly Father, have a mercy on me. You are born to die on the cross for my sins. Without Christmas, there is nobody to know You, the Son of God the Father. As I was eight years of age, I acted as San-ta Claus in a play, I did not know what it really meant. Now I repent my sins from heart deeply to celebrate Your coming. Lord, forgive my sins, the lust of my old nature, the lust of my eyes, and the boasting of what I have and do---comes not from You but from the world. I prepare for watching Your coming again. I pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
註: 上帝的意念高過我們的意念, 祂的旨意是值得我們順服. 下面是小兒雷應遠(John Lei)的回心憶.
在我的經驗中, 記得1977年與父親初來美國時, 爸爸因没有得到北他科他州(North Dakota University)立大學的助學金, 想離開, 同時從家裡又寄來卡拉剌多州(Fort Collin, Colorado University)大學的入學許可.記得那時是十一月初, 快要下大雪的週末. 父親没有作任何的遠途開車的預備 :如毛毯和 足夠的食物和水; 也没有在美國超速公路開車的經驗; 對風雪的危險没有仍何概念; 更忽略了卡拉剌多州是最多雪的地方.只告訴我把一些衣物放上汽車, 等主日作完敬拜再走.當我們做完主日敬拜後, 爸爸忽然有所感動, 想等星期一去學校看看有没有助學金的通知函件再走.我們星期一到學校, 發現在信箱中有一封信, 是100美金的助學金.我們當時就跪下感謝上帝, 原來是上帝使萬事都互相效力, 叫愛祂的人免於死亡.事後我們才知道有很多八十年代的中國留學生在風雪中喪生的事件, 因為通訊設備簡陋, 活活的被凍死在車上.是上帝定意要留住我們的生命, 因為生命本來就是祂的.
(註: 1980年在北他科他州立大學完成碩士論文 : Groundwater Exchange at Falkirk North Dakota, 爸爸現年91歲.)
