- 加油,兒子!
Way to go, Son!
- 願你成長,如海的容量!
May you grow, I pray, into the capacity as of the Ocean!
- 生日快樂,我們最親愛的兒子!
Happy birthday, our dearest and most beloved son!
不知道為什麼,在你 31歲生日的前夕,媽媽忽然想起了25年前我為你寫的那篇文章;那是你生命中媽媽寫你所刊登出來的第一篇作品。
孩子,我們熬過來了!(刊載於導向雜誌)
那一年,你光榮地熬過了生命中的第一個難關。二十五年來,媽媽看見你一路掙扎、一路得勝。二十五年來,媽媽以禱告托住你、感恩不斷。
如果,再過 25年,媽媽還被上帝留在地上,她將會更感恩、更驕傲地看見她兒子在基督裏的繼續得勝。
那時,好不好你帶老媽去喝杯咖啡、小坐一會兒,慶祝你生命的不斷圓熟,也慶祝媽媽生你的 56週年紀念?
Don’t know why, but sometime before your birthday, I all of a sudden recalled the very first article that I wrote and published for you twenty-25 years ago:
We have overcome, Son! (Published on the Steering Magazine)
That was the year when you endured life’s first obstacle in triumph. For the following 25 years, I have witnessed more struggles and victories in your life, and my prayers and thankfulness have never ceased.
Should in 25 more years God still keeps me on earth, I know I will be more thankfully and proudly to see your continuous victories in Christ.
Then will you take your old mother for a cup of coffee so we could rest a little bit and celebrate your life’s continuous growth as well as Mama’s 56 anniversary for giving the birth to you?
- This beautiful lady is the most important person in your whole life; she loves you, and she will love you for ever and ever.....
- But don't forget, this lady also loves you, and she loves "the two of you"......
Happy Birthday, my Son!
