如果我們生活在一個靈性的烏托邦中，每一個風都吹向天堂，每個人都是上帝的朋友，我們基督徒可以把一切都視為理所當然，依靠我們內在的新生命使我們不費吹灰之力地或者不自覺地履行上帝的旨意。不幸的是，我們必須與我們的肉慾，世界的吸引力和魔鬼的誘惑為敵。這些使我們的信仰生活複雜化，並要求我們經常在基督和他的誡命方面做出堅定的道德決定。正是這場危機迫使我們堅持或反對。愛國者可能對這個國家忠誠了半生，卻沒有考慮太多，但任由不友好的力量誘使他轉賣叛國者，他會迅速拒絕這一提議。他的愛國主義將公開展現給所有人。在基督徒生活中也是如此。南風何時輕輕吹起？ （徒27:13）承載保羅的船航行得足夠順利，船上沒有人知道保羅是誰，或者那個平淡的外表背後隱藏著多少性格。但是，當強大的友拉格羅暴風襲擊了他們時，保羅的偉大很快成為了船上所有人的話題。使徒，儘管他本人實際上是一個囚犯，卻在此時接管了這艘船，做出了決定並下達了令人們生死攸關的命令。我認為這場危機使保羅陷入了前所未有的困境，甚至連他自己都還不清楚。暴風雨來臨時，美麗的理論很快就變成了事實。--A. W. Tozer 陶恕牧師講道：愛的危機 (Crises of Love)

最近讀到這段陶恕牧師的文章，思想到我們信仰的生活，其實就是在危機的時候，我們的信仰內涵才會真正的表現出來。現在是一個危機的時刻，我們看到新冠肺炎的疫情仍然在各國猖狂，我們看見美國社會動盪不安，我們看見經濟仍然在未知的光景當中，我們不知道如何關懷我們周圍的人和把福音傳給人，這正是一個考驗我們的時刻。當颶風來臨時，我們才知道樹的根基有多深，當危難臨到我們的時候，我們才知道我們愛神和愛人是否真實。盼望我們在這一波的危機當中，把我們向主的熱誠行出來，讓我們可以過一個榮耀神，幫助人的生活，願那在我們裡面的聖靈幫助我們。  (杜榮啓弟兄)

希伯来书 11:36-40  又有人忍受戏弄、鞭打、捆锁、监禁、各等的磨炼， 被石头打死，被锯锯死，受试探，被刀杀，披着绵羊、山羊的皮各处奔跑，受穷乏、患难、苦害，在旷野、山岭、山洞、地穴漂流无定，本是世界不配有的人。这些人都是因信得了美好的证据，却仍未得着所应许的。因为神给我们预备了更美的事，叫他们若不与我们同得，就不能完全。

最近有一个“警察过度执法案件”引发各界关注，全美掀起了一股声势浩大的街头抗议浪潮。有些人乘机打砸抢烧，肆意发泄愤怒，将人性的罪恶和阴暗发挥得淋漓尽致，使很多无辜的人或团体成为受害者...

令人欣慰的是，另外有一些人在危难的时候用自己的身体保护无辜者，在游行过后清理到处遗弃的垃圾、修理被砸烂或焚毁的建筑、清洗被涂鸦的墙壁或橱窗，他/她们默默地做着这些，没有怨言也不声张...

两种不一样的生命令人深思：我们基督徒在这个弯曲悖谬的世代当怎样行呢？

马太福音 24:12 说：“只因(这世道)不法的事增多，许多人的爱心(就)渐渐冷淡了。” 我相信我们许多的弟兄姐妹都愿意按神的心意过圣洁的生活，不随从世界各样流行的恶习，并抵御那恶者的狡诈的攻击，也愿意帮助有需要的人。只是这世界有太多不法和颠倒黑白的事，有许多是不讨神喜悦甚至惹动神愤怒的事，你不随从他们，便会招来嘲弄甚至谩骂...

圣经告诉我们，有一些人，他们拥有神的生命，传福音给世人，使人脱离罪恶，并身体力行见证主耶稣。然而世人却戏弄、鞭打、捆锁、监禁甚至杀害他们；他们居无定所，被世人所唾弃。然而，圣经却称他们是“世界不配有的人”. 这些人是神所喜悦的！我们当效法他们的信心，不在乎人的眼光和看法，而要荣神益人，极力活出基督徒生命当有的样式！要如使徒保罗所呼吁的，“凡所行的，都不要发怨言、起争论，使你们无可指摘，诚实无伪，在这弯曲悖谬的世代做神无瑕疵的儿女。你们显在这世代中，好像明光照耀，”(腓立比书2:14－15)

山谷中的百合花，虽无人眷顾，无人欣赏，然而它依旧绽放，因它要将生命的美丽展现给造它的主！   (杨廷录弟兄)

"Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching."  Hebrews 10:23-25 NIV

There was a time in my life when I needed to lose a lot of weight. About five years ago, I lost 100 lbs.! It was through a strict diet and a workout regimen that I was able to lose this weight. The diet was the toughest part for me. I was strict with what I ate for six days, but for one day, I could eat whatever I wanted! I called it my "bad day." It was the light at the end of the tunnel for me, and it worked. I was "unswerving" in my diet because of my "hope" of eating bad that one day a week.

I also had my wife and a fitness instructor to "spur" me on in achieving this goal. They would encourage me and show me tough love, when I needed it. Amy was my biggest ally in this journey and would hold me accountable if I didn't stick to my regiment. She would also "spur" me on through the food she would make for our family so that I could stay on course.
Social Distancing away from our church family has been tough, but I know during these times, there is light at the end of the tunnel. His name is Jesus, and we should unswervingly allow our hope (what we look forward to) to remain in Him.

Let us continue to "spur" one another on with encouragement and accountability as we look forward to our hope in Jesus Christ. I look forward to the day when we can meet again so that we can encourage one another in person and believe that when this is all over, meeting in person will be very encouraging for our church family. (Pastor Moe)
