路19 : 11-27
[忠僕與惡僕]
19 : 11 眾人正在聽見這些話的時候、耶穌因為將近耶路撒冷、又因他們以為 神的國快要顯出來、就另設一個比喻說、
19 : 12 有一個貴冑往遠方去、要得國回來。
19 : 13 便叫了他的十個僕人來、交給他們十錠銀子、〔錠原文作彌拿一彌拿約銀十兩〕說、你們去作生意、直等我回來。
19 : 14 他本國的人卻恨他、打發使者隨後去說、我們不願意這個人作我們的王。
19 : 15 他既得國回來、就吩咐叫那領銀子的僕人來、要知道他們作生意賺了多少。
19 : 16 頭一個上來說、主阿、你的一錠銀子、已經賺了十錠。
19 : 17 主人說、好、良善的僕人.你既在最小的事上有忠心、可以有權柄管十座城。
1. 如果你是耶穌時代群眾中的一員,當你聽到耶穌宣告說:『人子來,為要尋找、拯救失喪的人。』你會有何聯想?
2. 主人稱贊那賺了十錠和五錠銀子的僕人為「良善的僕人」,原因何在?
3. 那「惡僕」真的認識主人嗎?他的行為表明了甚麼?
We still can’t believe that, as a family, we have the opportunity to serve God at Coquitlam Christ Church of China.
Yes, that’s the mentality of myself and my wife. We are (from left to right) Mark, Matias, Mikayla, Cindy, and Tobias for those who don't know us yet. Our family is pretty crazy at home, well, everywhere else as well. As a tribe, we really enjoy time outside, especially at parks, beaches, and the kids love the water park! Tobias has just learned how to bike, Matias is cruising on his balance bike, and Mikayla pushes away on her scooter. My wife Cindy enjoys hanging around children as well. She is a trained Early Childhood Educator, and she runs a preschool and a school-age program. I am geared more towards going to the gym and hitting some weights, music, and I love video games!
We thank God that He has moved mountains in bringing us to CCCC. In the midst of this miracle, our Living God has given me a vision – to make disciples in the name of Jesus Christ. Simple as that. Nothing more and nothing fancy. Second, as I look to Jesus as the greatest example of a servant’s heart – come to serve and not to be served. The vision and attitude are the two cornerstones as we partake in God’s story and redemptive plan for the Coquitlam Christ Church of China. As brothers and sisters and friends of this community, I pray that we support one another and become what the Apostle Paul urges us to do. Paul writes,
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.” – Romans 12:1
In Christ who gives me strength,
