事奉之路

被提名分擔教會一些總務的事奉。其實我不知到何以有這樣的安排,甚至是由誰提名我也不曉得。
心裡的感受是複雜的。被點名擔任一些工作,總能給自己一種虛榮感。總是因為讓人覺得有可取之處,才被選上吧?但自己裡頭的境況,自己比人清楚得多。我怕我會自滿,我也怕我會有一天停下來,不會再向前走。事實上,我已經幾乎不記得進步是怎的一回事……
May GOD help me.

Baptism Application Take 2 (or 3)

The second year in a row to interview for the baptism application. The interview still take longer than it should. Not knowing the result, I would rather not share too much details on this stage.

When I was filling the application form, I opened a e-book from my computer and found this:

God is sovereign. He is wise. He is unqualifiedly good. Part of Christian maturation is understanding that even his delays are not foolish or stupid or mistakes or exercises in whimsy. He is to be trusted, and even the delays are to be improved upon by the way we respond to them. (Scandalous, page 124)

While I must admit that I am not a mature Christian, I do hope that God may be glorified in all circumstances.

UPDATE (4-July-2010): I got a copy of Church constitution yesterday. This means … hm … the application have been accepted. If nothing goes wrong, I will be baptized later this month.
