聖經上說:愛你的敵人,對他好,借(錢?)給他,不要期待嚐還。寬恕別人,你也會得到寬恕,施舍他人,你會得到給予。。。。。。。。
有一年,有位朋友急需用錢,向我借6000塊。在當時,那可是我辛苦一年的存款。因為朋友是急用,我又擔心如果不借會失去這位朋友。正不知如何是好之時,有一對老夫婦對我說:“如果你想借錢給你的朋友,就要做好心理準備-他不一定還錢給你。如果你無法接受他不還錢,就不要借錢給對方。” 聽了老人言,我霍然開朗。
中國借錢給美國的時候,有沒有想過有一天如果美國不還怎麽辦?後來我明白了,中國沒有借錢給美國,是買了美國的國債。但是我不明白的是,買了對方的債跟借錢給對方有什麽區別。中國應該是沒有想借錢給美國,可是中國的確已經成了美國的最大債權人,也就是說中國算是借錢給美國了。愛你的敵人吧,借給他,不要期待嚐還,希望中國能做到。
LUKE 6:34-38
And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what creditis that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to get back the sameamount. But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothingin return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of theMost High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil. Be merciful,even as your Father is merciful. “Judge not, and you will not bejudged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and youwill be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure,pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap.For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
