為誰辛苦為誰忙,我要做好呢份工!

喂!講工作講到爛啦!仲講?真係仲有得講,鬼叫我地講黎講去都無辦法擺脫響份工捱打既狀態咩?香港人份工大過天架麻!

Mmm... 既然講黎講去都係咁,咁唔爭在講多次啦可!理鬼佢成日都係same old story...

一日我地無上帝既呼召做全時間既傳道人,我地都只會係24小時既帶職事奉者,咁既話工作佔左我地大部份時間其實無咩唔正常,問題只係我地既心態係咪帶職事奉,定係既要白白領受福音又要賺取世界jet。唔駛做就有永生,於是用多D時間黎賺多D錢,係咪win-win?

傳統既福音派信仰不幸地將好多野(包括事奉)「諾斯底」化左(記唔記得查約翰一書實會講下「諾斯底主義」?):乜鬼野都將佢二分法:唔係屬靈就係屬世。「上帝是個靈」,所以屬靈就實係神性既、係永遠既,係我地應該竭一生既精力去追求既;相反,屬世既物質世界就係罪大惡極既,係我地應該屏棄既... 慢慢幾乎淨係得番讀經祈禱傳福音同返教會先算係屬靈,工作就唔駛問梗係屬世。唔係咩?你賺埋賺埋D錢一個崩都帶唔到入棺材架麻!

其實主耶穌由細到大做左起碼廿年木匠,出黎傳道就之不過三年咁大把,保羅就不嬲都有靠織帳棚賺錢維生(徒十八1-4),佢地從來都無話返工唔屬靈。將自己份工做好肯定唔單止係曾特首既心意,都係上帝對我地每個帶職事奉者既心意。上帝響暗處察看我地做野係用咩心態,係咪對上司同老闆盡忠,服事人如同服事主(哥羅西書三22-24、彼前二17-21、提多書二9-10)。如果返返下工唔做好自己手頭D野,淨係掛住捉住隔離個未信主既同事講人生既終極問題,話耶穌先係呢個問題既答案,咁就只會整衰主耶穌個名,好心做壞事。

所以我認為講黎講去都係兩個大原則:

(一)用負責任同追求卓越既心態做好自己份工,不過唔單係為左老闆同公司好,而係為左我自己既為人,做唔做到一個負責任既staff。呢樣野唔關信唔信耶穌事,係做人既基本態度。

(二)用最大既努力維持一個均衡既生活。呢樣野都唔關信唔信耶穌事,都係做人既基本態度。我講緊既唔單止係話對信耶穌既人黎講,信仰生活一環會係有較高既priority,而係我地應該將我地既信仰融匯貫通,融合響我地24小時既生活裡面。如過你24小時都係靈修緊,咁既話就算俾你直踩24小時都要工作,咁樣做基督徒又有咩唔妥?直踩24小時,一路記住神既說話,諗下點樣響份工上面實踐出黎,搵岩個位將神既說話身體力行做出黎,你條命就變成一個活生生既見證,點都唔差得過喱埋響個山窿度禁食祈禱嗟下話?(呢拿!一咁樣比較邊個屬靈D,其實又係將個信仰「諾斯底」化左勒!)換句話講,維持呢個均衡既生活,係從精神思想上開始:個腦唔係淨係俾賺幾多錢、買乜野點樣洗、幾時升職幾時退休等等呢D野霸晒,而係要俾聖靈霸左先,俾佢做主,然後諗下等陣俾著耶穌,佢會頂硬上唔放工住、繼續直踩做好自己份內事,定係唔理老頂威脅炒魷一於收工,返屋企見阿爸阿媽老公老婆仔女定係返教會。個個處境未必一樣,個個情況主耶穌既選擇都未必一樣。

信得過神,你會信得過如果你繼續開OT,佢會睇住你阿爸阿媽老公老婆仔女同埋教會。

信得過神,你會信得過如果自己堅持收工,佢會保住你份工同埋你既前途,或者就算真係俾老細炒左,佢都會俾番另一份你。神未必下下用神蹟,但係結果就往往出人意表!

無論點揀,重點係我地信神定係信自己或者信老細。信神既話你點揀都會經歷到佢既保守。信自己既話你點揀都會覺得自己做得唔夠好,平衡唔到,於是成日都要孭住D罪疚感。返工又內疚,放工更加內疚。

為誰辛苦為誰忙,你諗下勒。諗諗下次你會點揀?

信得過神 to spend time with mom/dad - God'll put food on the table. (And He did, for the next academic year!)

信得過神 to spend time to prepare for my lecture - God'll take care of mom and, of course, His church. OK. Let me gather my thoughts and put more effort in teaching la.

多謝阿晶﹗

Thanks everyone for verifying my arguments.

While I argue, I'm also one of the learners, struggling everyday and learning to be sensitive and obedient to His will.

Here only big_head told us how and where she's going to put her faith into practice. I looked forward, and pray for all of us, to seeing us sharing more of His guidance and faithfulness.
