【生命的管弦樂】
如果一個小孩唱歌走了調，你是否會叫她閉嘴？
或你會藉由告訴她繼續唱而鼓舞她唱得更美妙？
你們是神的管絃樂隊(You are God’s orchestra.)。
透過你們，神在作「生命本身之管弦樂」曲。
(It is through you that God orchestrates life itself.)
當你演奏時，沒有「走調」的事。只有你，我的孩子，在忘情地演奏，在試著正確地奏出。
摘自《與神為友》第18章
If a child is singing off-key, do you tell her to shut up? Is that how you imagine you will encourage her to love music, or to love herself?
You are God's orchestra. It is through you that God orchestrates life itself. There are no "sour notes" when you play. There is only you, My child, playing your heart out, trying to get it right.
