女儿作画和智慧泉源

(2008-11-26 17:48:49) 下一个

    女儿霏喜爱画画。她课后或在家里有闲时,喜欢勾画马,看关于马的小说,或写马的故事。目前她还从未参加任何绘画培训,平时她画画都是自己模仿书上的图。我和先生都没有画画天分,霏如此喜欢画画,想来是遗传了我妹妹的天赋。妹妹是服装设计师,以前业余还教过画画,只是她住在新加坡,从未有机会面授霏画画技巧。今晚我挑了几幅霏画的马图放博客上,懂画的博友请多多指教啰。

  霏课外只学习三项:芭蕾舞,钢琴,和跟我学中文。我们不想让她太忙碌,念4年级的她作业还不算多,每天放学,大约10几分钟的作业,然后和弟弟玩或自己画画。晚餐后,练习钢琴和中文各20-30分钟。若第二天有小测,我们陪她温习功课。温习完毕,全家有时一起玩游戏,今晚我们一起玩Sorry(对不起)的游戏。玩半个多钟头后,为孩子洗浴。临睡前,全家在一起读一《圣经》章节。 

    这两天我们一家在念《圣经》的《雅各书》,《雅各书》只有五个章节,但是每个章节都有很多智慧箴言,很有启发。昨晚念了第三章节,提到人要管住自己的口。“船只虽然甚大,又被大风催逼,只用小小的舵,就随着掌舵的意思转动。舌头在百体里也是最小的,却能说大话。看哪,最小的火能点着最大的树林。舌头就是火,在我们百体中,舌头是个罪恶的世界,能污秽全身,也能把生命的轮子点起来,并且是从地狱里点着的。各类的走兽、飞禽、昆虫、水族,本来都可以制伏,也已经被人制伏了;惟独舌头没有人能制伏是不止息的恶物、满了害死人的毒气。我们用舌头颂赞那为主、为父的,又用舌头咒诅那照着神形象被造的人。颂赞和咒诅从一个口里出来,我的弟兄们,这是不应当的。泉源从一个眼里能发出甜苦两样的水吗?”(雅3:4-11) 真正智慧泉源应是 “从上头来的智慧,先是清洁,后是和平,温良柔顺,满有怜悯,多结善果,没有偏见,没有假冒。并且使人和平的,是用和平所栽种的义果。”(雅3:17-18)1

    念好《圣经》章节后,我们为远方的家人,新朋旧友,邻居,孩子的同学等等向神祈祷,求神的智慧和带领。最后,先生为霏盖掖好被子(tuck her in),我为安盖掖被子,亲吻道晚安后,两个孩子9点左右睡觉,我和杰明也有了自己的时间。

    这不,轻舟正在辛勤开垦她的博园呢!呵呵 ^-^

雅各书3:4-11 & 17-18的英文KJV原文:

Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? ....

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
