是是誰 D+ 看世界~*

有句諺語這樣說
龍生龍、鳳生鳳，老鼠的兒子會打洞
意思是指下一代會學習與成長成為像上一代的樣式

雅各是一個欺騙的專家
他以欺騙來蒙騙自己的父親
而他的孩子也學習了父親的樣式
也以欺騙來蒙騙自己的父親


很多時候在我們不以為意的光景下
這些感覺微不足道的行為
往往成為孩子學習的作為

在婚姻關係破裂的家庭裡面
孩子在婚姻關係上面有極大的可能也會成為破裂的婚姻
因為孩子往往會將這樣的問題視為正常的行為

在紛爭不斷的教會裡面
會友在未來處理教會問題時也有極大的可能會繼續紛爭不斷
因為前人所做的每一件事都會被合理化

你我今日當在意生命的影響是一種教導
他足以使一個家庭破裂
也足以使一個教會分裂

以正確的信仰養育正是你我要學習的功課

各種教育會使你我得著各種知識
但唯有信仰養育會使你我得著豐盛的生命


願上帝祝福你我
成為接受教育的學生
也成為接受養育的孩子與基督徒

And they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said, This have we found: know now whether it be thy son's coat or no.
37:33 他認得，就說：「這是我兒子的外衣。有惡獸把他吃了，約瑟被撕碎了！撕碎了！」
