很疲倦的一個晚上,九個小時的低壓,下了班,趕上英文讀經班,
今天讀的是路得記,
咀嚼著路得和拿俄米之間的對話,
讓我濕了眼:
”Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there i will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if anything but death separates you and me.”
『路得記』描寫婦人拿俄米的丈夫與兩個兒子都死了,欲返回家鄉。媳婦路得,不忍她一個人老年孤單,決心陪伴拿俄米返回故鄉。雖然她們不同種族,但是路得還是盡心伺奉她的婆婆,想像著路得身於異國,為了養婆婆到麥田裡撿拾稻穀, 在那樣的時代背景身為外國人的窘境,可能還要忍受閒言閒語!
回到家竟然恰好GoodTV在訪問劉南芳老師的福音歌仔戲
看見她對歌仔戲的付出是這麼的無怨無悔
Obedience without any questions!
Also do a good job...
I ask myself again, what can I do and how can I do it well...
Only obedience but no questions!
