我與神的第一次接觸 My First Experience of God: The Crazy Dog

我是出生在馬來西亞沙巴洲的亞庇城裏。在亞庇教會,每個安息日我們都有見証會,讓宗教教育學員學習,因為我們的宗教教育課程是安排在星期天,所以每個安息日我聽到的見証是:當人遇到危難時,只要呼叫「哈利路亞!」神就會來拯救他們,這些的見証深印在我心裡。

I was born in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. We used to attend the True Jesus Church in Likas. Every Saturday, we would have a testimony session for the children during the service time. I often heard testimonies about when God came to the rescue of the members who yelled out, “Hallelujah!” when they were in trouble. That really left a deep impression in my mind. I was in 1st or 2nd grade at the time.



當時我大概是一年級或二年級,有一天下午我在屋外與哥哥在玩。我鄰居有一隻狗,我們都叫牠「瘋狗」。因為我每次去拜訪鄰居時,這隻狗是被綁在樹邊,常常看到人會狂叫,並且露出牙齒,好像要咬人的樣子,非常兇惡。當我們在屋外時,不知為什麼那隻狗的鎖錬鬆了?所以牠從主人家衝出來,衝到我和哥哥玩的地方。因為我們非常害怕這隻瘋狗,所以看到瘋狗衝向我們時,我們非常害怕!我們知道這隻狗要咬我們,所以我們趕緊撿起棕梠樹的樹枝,想抵擋那隻狗。但那隻狗看到我們拿著樹枝,牠更生氣,更向我們攻擊。那時我的直覺反應是大喊:「哈利路亞!」當我哥哥聽到我喊:「哈利路亞!」,他也大喊:「哈利路亞!」然後,神蹟發生了!

One afternoon, I was playing right outside my house with my brother. Our neighbor had a dog that we used to call “the crazy dog”. Whenever we visited this neighbor, we saw the dog tied up to a tree. It would often bark aggressively at people and bare its teeth as though it wanted to bite them. It was a very fierce dog! But that day, I don’t know why, but the dog’s chain was untied. It came running towards us very viciously and wanted to bite us. We picked up some palm tree branches to fend off the dog, but the dog just became more fierce! Just then, my instinct was to shout “hallelujah!”. When my brother heard me shout “hallelujah!” he did so as well. Then a miracle happened.



這隻兇惡的狗,突然變得非常害怕,原本牠是眼睛睜大、嘴巴張大要來咬我們的,當牠聽到我們喊:「哈利路亞!」,牠的眼睛突然閉起來,開始哀嚎!我就看到那隻狗身體一直往後退,一直在閃躲,但我和我哥哥只是呆呆地站著,連打都沒打牠,很快地,那隻狗就逃跑了,一邊跑、一邊哀嚎著。我和我哥哥被嚇到,還不知發生什麼事情?我們還未回神,便回家告訴爸爸。爸爸說:「神派了天使來保護你們兩個人。」就好像天使在打那隻狗,所以那隻狗才趕緊跑掉。所以,從那時我知道神是真實的,這是我與神的第一次接觸!

The ferocious dog from before now suddenly became very afraid and quiet, except for a distressed whine. It started to back away and dodge left and right, as though someone was hitting it. My brother and I just stood still, watching what was happening. Then it turned around and ran away, whining as it went. My brother and I were so scared before but we had no idea what happened. Before we really came to our senses, we made our way home and told our father what had happened. He told us that God had sent an angel to protect us. Thinking about it, it was indeed like an angel was hitting the dog and eventually made it run away. From that moment, I knew God was real. This was the first time I experienced God.



並要在患難之日求告我; 我必搭救你,你也要榮耀我。(詩五十15)
“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.”
(Ps 50:15)




耶和華的使者在敬畏他的人四圍安營, 搭救他們。(詩卅四7)
 “The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.”(Ps 34:7)
