梦游圣经66本书

日期：23/3/25

经文：
• “你们盼望多得，所得的却少；你们收到家中，我就吹去。”（哈该书 1:9）
• “从今日起，我必赐福与你们。”（哈该书 2:19）

故事：

阿慕带着满心的憧憬，希望用双手为家人撑起一片天。他用尽积蓄开了家店，取名为“有福商铺”，希望这片小天地能为家带来幸福。然而，现实像一盆冷水浇熄了他炙热的期待。

即使他每日早出晚归，绞尽脑汁想法子，生意仍不见起色。门口冷冷清清，账本日渐枯瘦；日复一日的煎熬，他的自信被一点点磨平。

某天晚上，他拖着疲惫的身躯回到家，看到妻子埋头缝补儿子的旧衣裳，而五岁的儿子则蹲在墙角，握着一辆掉漆的玩具车，默默推着。那本该充满欢声笑语的小脸，却写满了与他年纪不符的沉默。

“爸爸，咱们家是不是没有福气啊？”儿子无意间的这句话像是一把利刃，直刺阿慕的心。他呆呆地站在原地，眼眶湿润，内心充满了无力与悲痛。

深夜，在沉重的心事中，阿慕翻出许久未碰的圣经。目光落在一行经文上：“你们盼望多得，所得的却少。”读到这里，阿慕的心猛然一颤。他终于明白，原来自己一直在拼命追求祝福，却从未真正寻求赐福的神。

泪水静静滑落，他双膝跪地，颤声祷告：“主啊，我错了！我一味追求恩典，却忽略了你才是恩典的源头。求祢赦免我！”

第二天，他做出了一个令人意外的决定：将店名改为“有神商铺”。他不再单单追求利润，而是以诚信待客，热心帮助有需要的人。他更在店里放了一本圣经，鼓励自己始终把神摆在首位。

不久之后，转变悄然发生。顾客逐渐多了起来，他们喜欢到这家店，不仅是因为商品，更因为这里的温暖和真诚。收入的增长缓解了家里的压力，家庭氛围也越来越和谐美满。

某天晚上，阿慕回家时，看到妻子忙碌于厨房，孩子在客厅的地板上画画，那天真的笑声充满整个屋子。他弯下腰轻轻拥抱儿子，听到孩子甜甜地说：“爸爸，我觉得咱们家现在很有福！”

泪水再一次涌出，但这次，是满怀感恩的泪水。他想起哈该书的应许：“从今日起，我必赐福与你们。”他终于明白，真正的福分不在乎财富多少，而是生命中有神的同在。

结论：

我们常像阿慕一样，以为努力会带来幸福，却时常感到徒劳。真正的福分，不在我们的计划与能力之中，而在神的恩典里。愿我们学习放下执着，重新回到神的怀抱，因为渴慕神的心，才是通往祝福的道路。

愿每颗心都因神的同在，找到最深的满足与平安！

Story:

Ah Mu had high hopes of using his own hands to create a better life for his family. He spent all his savings to open a shop, naming it “Blessed Store”, hoping that this small venture would bring happiness to his family. However, reality poured cold water on his burning expectations.

Despite working tirelessly from dawn to dusk, coming up with every possible idea, the business still showed no signs of improvement. The shop remained empty, and the books grew thinner day by day; the endless struggles slowly wore down his confidence.

One night, exhausted, Ah Mu returned home to find his wife sewing his son’s old clothes, while his five-year-old son sat quietly in the corner, holding a chipped toy car and silently pushing it. The little face that should have been filled with laughter was instead filled with an unsettling silence for his age.

“Daddy, does our family not have any blessings?” His son’s unintentional words struck Ah Mu’s heart like a sharp blade. He stood frozen, his eyes brimming with tears, filled with helplessness and sorrow.

Late that night, weighed down by his thoughts, Ah Mu dusted off the Bible that had been left untouched for so long. His eyes landed on a verse: “You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little.” When he read this, his heart shook. He finally understood that he had been desperately seeking blessings but had never truly sought the God who gives blessings.

Tears quietly fell as he knelt down, trembling in prayer: “Lord, I was wrong! I have been chasing after grace, but I neglected that You are the source of grace. Please forgive me!”

The next day, he made an unexpected decision: he changed the store’s name to “God’s Presence Store.” He no longer focused solely on profits but treated customers with integrity, helping those in need with a warm heart. He even placed a Bible in the store to remind himself to keep God at the center of everything.

Soon, a quiet transformation began. Customers gradually increased, not just because of the products, but because of the warmth and sincerity they felt in the store. The increase in income alleviated the family’s pressure, and the home began to feel more harmonious and blessed.

One night, Ah Mu returned home to find his wife busy in the kitchen and his child drawing on the living room floor. The sound of innocent laughter filled the entire house. He bent down, gently hugging his son, and heard him say sweetly, “Daddy, I think our family is really blessed now!”

Tears welled up again, but this time, they were tears of gratitude. He recalled the promise in Haggai: “From this day on, I will bless you.” He finally understood that true blessings are not about how much wealth one has, but about having God’s presence in life.

Conclusion:

We often, like Ah Mu, believe that our hard work will bring happiness, but we often feel that it is in vain. True blessings do not lie in our plans and abilities but in God’s grace. May we learn to let go of our stubbornness and return to God’s embrace, for a heart that longs for God is the path to true blessings.

May every heart find the deepest satisfaction and peace in God’s presence!
