📝 當言語變得無力時,愛依然在訴說
親愛的馬鞍峰教會家人,
在一個充滿令人難過消息的世界裡,耶穌邀請我們去傳遞祂的好消息——不單透過言語,更透過我們在別人有需要時願意陪伴。
上個週末,胡安迪牧師提醒我們:我們被造,不只是為自己而活。耶穌差遣我們,將祂的盼望、醫治和幫助帶進上帝賜給我們的關係和處境中。
當有人受傷時,我們未必有完美的回應或即時的答案;但我們仍可以聆聽、禱告、唱一首敬拜詩歌,或分享一節經文。上帝的話語能帶來我們自己無法給予的盼望和安慰,提醒人們上帝看顧他們、與他們親近,也沒有忘記他們。
🙏 這星期,邀請你背誦一節曾經堅固你的聖經經文。你未必知道摯愛的親友、同事或鄰居何時需要鼓勵;當言語變得無力時,一節懷著愛分享的經文,或許正是他們需要聽見的話。
讓我們也為受傷、哀傷或感到迷失的人禱告。願我們在別人需要幫助時能及時出現,並願聖靈以耶穌的心思意念充滿我們,使我們成為社區中的好消息。
親愛的上帝,感謝祢看顧每一個人,也深知我們所承擔的一切重擔。今天我們將受傷或迷失的人帶到祢面前,求祢以安慰和平安環繞他們。求祢的靈充滿我們,賜我們屬靈的眼光看見身邊的人,並幫助我們勇敢且滿有憐憫地分享祢的愛。奉耶穌的名,阿們。
教會家人,我很愛你們。我目前身在森林湖主堂,下週將會探訪溫哥華的教會家人。請為 Rosanna 和我禱告,讓我們尋求上帝的帶領,以及祂想要我們與教會家人分享的生命話語。
雖然這個週末我無法與你們相聚,但我鼓勵你們參加聚會,並帶一位朋友來,讓我們繼續一同學習過著被差遣的生活。我很期待兩週後與你們再見。

📝 When words fall short, love still speaks
Dear Saddleback Family,
In a world that can feel full of difficult news, Jesus invites us to carry His good news—not only through our words, but also through the way we show up for people.
This past weekend, Pastor Andy Wood reminded us that we are made for more than simply living for ourselves. Jesus sends us to bring His hope, healing, and help into the relationships and places God has given us.
When someone is hurting, we may not have the perfect words or immediate answers. But we can still offer a listening ear, a prayer, a worship song, or a verse of Scripture. God’s Word can bring a hope and comfort that our own words cannot; it can remind people that God sees them, is near to them, and has not forgotten them.
🙏 This week, I want to encourage you to memorise one Bible verse that has strengthened you. You may not know when a loved one, colleague, or neighbour will need encouragement. When words fall short, a verse shared with love may be exactly what someone needs to hear.
Let us also pray for those who are hurting, grieving, or feeling lost. May we be available when someone needs a helping hand, and may the Holy Spirit fill us with the heart and mind of Jesus so that we can become good news in our community.
Dear God, thank You that You see every person and know every burden we carry. We lift up those who are hurting or feeling lost today. Surround them with Your comfort and peace. Fill us with Your Spirit, give us eyes to see the people around us, and help us share Your love with courage and compassion. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Church family, I love you so much. I am currently in Lake Forest and will be visiting our Vancouver family next week. Please pray for Rosanna and me as we seek God’s direction and the life-giving words He wants us to share with our beloved church family.
Although I will miss being with you this weekend, I encourage you to join us and bring a friend as we continue learning to live sent together. I look forward to seeing you again in two weeks.
With love,
Pastor Stephen
