3+1 "好友?"


約伯與四個朋友
















還記得大半年前, 無論是自己還是其他教會, 差不多同步地查考聖經內的一卷書"約伯記". 即使我沒有爬 YouTube 的習慣, 但手機內每週也會收到朋友傳發給我, 由不同牧者用約伯記講道的訊息. 甚至連 IG 也有朋友以此為題材分享, 何為困苦? 尤其是發生在約伯身上, 似乎沒法子解釋的苦難, 應該如何解讀及面對?

在短短差不多一年的時間內, 我參加了自己教會, 由牧師特別安排的連續幾個短期查經班, 約伯記是其中一課. 今次, 牧師帶我們探索的主角, 並非約伯, 而是他身邊那些"好朋友"; 在理解神的創造秩序之餘, 更再次提醒著我們在現實生活中, 應該如何陪伴正在面對困局/受苦的人.

陪伴、聆聽、同理心、不代替神説話、從困苦中尋找上主的恩言…一步一步的全是可行又合理不過. 至少, 學習不要用自己的"大道理"去第二次傷害受苦中的人~ 就是在不知不覺中, 用我們有限的智慧去強行解釋現况. 

曾幾何時當我們對着一個剛喪親的人説:"不要多想, 慢慢會忘記悲痛…"
又或者對着一個長期患病的人説:"不要停止治療, 總會有痊癒的一天…"
又或者對一個身處政局動盪的國家, 連下一秒也不知死活的人説:"我為你禱告,願你平安..."
又或者對着一個因車禍而要截肢的人説:"不用喪掉生命, 已經很幸運, 快來感恩…"
還有無數無數你我也聽過甚至經歷過的例子, 難道這一切都是錯嗎? 
都不是該給予的安慰說話嗎?

事實上很多安慰的説話也確是出於好意, 只是我們不得不承認, 世上有不少苦難, 並非三言兩語便可"打發", 甚至乎仍要待在漫長的黑夜中… 直至該完結的時間來到. 而在這段時間裏, 與其勉強回應, 還是靜靜聆聽來得更好.

盡管有時, 我們以為自己曾經有相同經歷, 於是便對受苦者提供千萬個可以"即時解困"的方法… 説真的, 不盡相同; 反而當我們可以謙卑地明白自己的無助和有限時, 神自有其工作; 此刻,可不靜靜的陪伴、聆聽和等待…也許這才是好朋友應該做的事, 互勉之!

寫下...怕會忘記

20201月份至今我陸續邀請了30位親朋作首讀預覽. 收到20組書評, 當中不乏對本書的寫作對象, 體裁, 篇幅長度, 排版設計, 相片調色, 繪畫色彩, 文字内容等多項提出不同的意見; 範圍涵括面頗全面, 有理性分析, 也有感性思考的回覆

在我決定開始創作這個系列之時, 最令我感到難以決擇的是: 要商品化嗎?
也許無容置疑是理應商品化, 用設計技巧來處理並出版; 大部份朋友的意見也證明應該朝這方向而行, 否則又何需網上發售呢? 沒錯...

...但在繼續製作Entrée Sortie, 我竟沒有把上述提及的各項上, 作太明顯的修正! 抱歉令大家失望.  並非因為你們的意見不好或不被看重, 反之我認為是很細心及有見地; 只是, 翻複思量了好幾週, 至少到目前這刻, 我仍被初心叫我保留她的個人化"罷了, 也許還是免不了要付上一些代價.  

容許我在此向大家陳明我所謂的初心”, 以下是Petit Paris系列的原創結構: 

對象:              任何需要空間又或想思考前路的人
體裁:              繪本型式的短詩集
篇幅長度:      A5, 一百頁以内的小書
排版設計:      簡潔, 最少修飾
相片調色:      最少修正, 色彩角度光線情景與拍攝時保留最大相符 
                       (即使不幸手震 out of focus :P)
繪畫色彩:      monotone/ gray scale + 全色水彩中頁
文字内容:      接近手寫字體, 簡潔
其他:              相片,插圖與短詩存在於不同空間

就是這樣...只想讀者能和我同處當時那一刻的巴黎即使不一定令人嚮往, 卻可以稍作喘息.  倘若有一天以上一切都要改變, 但願你仍然喜歡和我飛翔...!

Rainbow Covenant 彩虹之約

彩虹之約
click picture to view in detail
Whenever the rainbow appear after rain, time freeze... 


how beautiful she is...the beauty of nature...so amazing !! (people on earth)

Hallelujah !
The bow covenant between God and all living creature... God's forgiveness (Christian on earth)

'...And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all fresh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. ' (Genesis 9 : 15)



darkness will be over one day, 
even it's long and intolerable...and 
there will be hope again !! 

(We! in Hong Kong 2019)

神說: "我與你們並你們這裏的各樣活物所立的永約是有記號的. 我把虹放在雲彩中, 這樣就可作我與地立約的記號了.我使雲彩蓋地的時候, 必有虹現在雲彩中, 我便紀念我與你們和各樣有血肉的活物所立的約, 水就再不泛濫毀壞一切有血有肉的物了...."  (創世記九章12-15節)

還記得早前在繪畫"神的創造"之後, 打算上一點顏色之際, 彩虹之約便即時呈現腦海之中.也許只源自顏色單純自然之美; 又或許是, 這個因人類敗壞之後, 在神的傷痛下被摧毀, 再重建, 被寬恕, 再被愛的應許; 使我懷抱着希望把色彩一點一點地擺上.

是神與人的復和, 也是人與人之間的復和; 此時, 被毀的才能有復原的希望.

7 in Creation - Seventh Day

7 in creation - Seventh Day


1. Thus the heavens and the earth were finished,
and all the host of them.
2. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made;
and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3. And God blessed the seventh day,
and sanctified it: 
because that in it he had rested from all his work 
which God created and made.




 1. 天地萬物都造齊了. 
2. 到第七日,  神造物的工已經完畢,
就在第七日歇了祂一切的工, 安息了.
3. 神賜福給第七日, 定為聖日, 
因為在這日, 神歇了 祂一切創造的工, 就安息了.

7 in Creation - Sixth Day

7 in Creation - Sixth Day


24. And God said,
Let the earth bring forth the living creature
after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, 
and beast of the earth after his kind:
and it was so.
25. And God made the beast of the earth after his kind,
and cattle after their kind,
and every thing that creepeth upon the earth
after his kind:
and God saw that it was good.
26. And God said,
Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:
and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air,
and over the cattle, and over all the earth,
and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27. So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.
28. And God blessed them, 
and God said unto them,
Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth,
and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air,
and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29. And God said, Behold, 
I have given you every herb bearing seed,
which is upon the face of all the earth, 
and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed;
to you it shall be for meat.
30. And to every beast of the earth, 
and to every fowl of the air,
and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
wherein there is life, 
I have given every green herb for meat: 
and it was so.
31 And God saw every thing that he had made,
and, behold, it was very good.
And the evening and the morning
were the sixth day.  





24. 神說: "地要生出活物來, 各從其類;
牲畜、 昆蟲、 野獸, 各從其類."
事就這樣成了.
25. 於是,  神造出野獸, 各從其類;
牲畜, 各從其類; 地上一切昆蟲, 各從其類.
神看着是好的.
26. 神說: "我們要照着我們的形像, 按着我們的樣式造人,
使他們管理海裏的魚、 空中的鳥,
地上的牲畜和全地, 並地上所爬的一切昆蟲."
27.  神就照着自己的形象造人,
乃是照着祂的形像造男造女.
28. 神就賜福給他們, 又對他們說:
"要生養眾多, 遍滿地面, 治理這地;
也要 管理海裏的魚、 空中的鳥, 和地上各樣行動的活物."
29. 神說: "看哪! 我將遍地上一切結種子的菜蔬,
和一切樹上所結有核的果子, 全賜給你們作食物.
30. 至於地上的走獸和空中的飛鳥,
並各在地上有生命的物, 
我將青草賜給牠們作食物."
事就這樣成了.
31. 神看着一切所造的都甚好.
有晚上, 有早晨,
是第六日.

大的管晝, 小的管夜, 又造眾星,

18. 管理晝夜, 分別明暗.
