「如何感受」喜悅是一種創造(create)。傳統的思維模式是:如何「找到」喜悅?「找到」並非一種有意識地創造,而是像一條自己不去掌握船舵的汪洋中小船,四處漂浮,在其中隨之做出一些反應(react)、自嘆無奈或自己的渺小。
神不教導人們心智如何反應,只啟發我們如何創造。此篇談「如何感受」即是一個啟發我們創造的好例子,再加上神教導的祕訣,其智慧和內容值得我們永遠牢記在心!
聽神談【如何「感受喜悅」的秘密】
尼爾:你怎麼在心裡帶著喜悅呢? 有些人並沒有經驗到你剛說的那樣。
他們不了解「 喜悅的秘密 」。
尼爾:秘密是什麼?
除非你 「讓它流露 出來」,否則你無法感受到 喜悅(You cannot feel joy until you let it out.)。
尼爾:但如果你沒感受到它,你 如何能「讓它流露出來 」 ?
幫別人感受到它。
釋放在別人心內的喜悅,你便釋放了在你心內的喜悅。
(Release the joy that is inside of another, and you release the joy that is inside of you.)
摘自《與神為友》第13章
Neale: But how do you carry joy in your heart? How do you get it there if it's not there? Some people do not experience that.
They do not know joy's secret.
Neale: What is the secret?
You cannot feel joy until you let it out.
Neale: But how do you let it out if you are not feeling it?
Help another to feel it.
Release the joy that is inside of another, and you release the joy that is inside of you.
