當人生到達終點線，什麽是你做過最正確的選擇？ 一位罹癌四期的姐妹坐在候診室外的椅子上，聊著她的過往和曾經做過的許多選擇。她心中充滿感恩的說：「我一生中雖有太多遺憾；但如今，做了最正確的選擇，就是信了耶穌。」 馬太福音 16:26：「人若賺得全世界，賠上自己的生命，有甚麼益處呢？人還能拿甚麼換生命呢？」 When life finally reaches its end, what will prove to have been the greatest choice you ever made? A woman battling stage-four cancer sat outside a clinic reflecting on her life and the many decisions she had made. With deep gratitude, she said, “I have many regrets in life, but the best choice I ever made was to believe in Jesus.” “What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?” Matthew 16:26

  真正的成長，從來都不是單純的外形改變，而是心靈上的蛻變。 哥林 多 後 書 5:17 「若 有 人 在 基 督 裡 ， 他 就 是 新 造 的 人 ， 舊 事 已 過 ， 都 變 成 新 的 了 。 」 True growth is not measured outwardly by what is seen, but is evident in a transformed mind. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: the old has gone, the new is here!” 2 Corinthians 5:17

  有沒有想過為了更好，可以放下次好的？為了真正的生命，願意割捨生命中的蕪草？ 神希望我們喜樂，要給我們更純、更深、更有能力的生命。神計劃的，比人的更重要。 以賽亞書 55:8 耶和華說：「我的意念非同你們的意念； 我的道路非同你們的道路。」 — Have you ever considered letting go of what is “second best” in order to gain what is truly better? Are you willing to let go of what’s lesser to embrace what’s better? God desires for us to live with joy. He wants to give us a simpler life that is meaningful and enabling. God’s plans are greater than human plans. 
“‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the Lord.” Isaiah 55:8
