第七日 – 聖神賜予我們為主作證的能力
我們所有人偶爾都會有東西與人分享,可能是在特別的日子送禮物給人,或分享一些我們見過的好東西,例如是好的產品和購物優惠。我們也會與人分享自己一些重要的經驗、記憶、故事和靈感,或一些新的想法。
分享令我們感覺良好,也令我們與別人的關係更好,因為透過分享美好的事,我們把焦點放在別人身上。總言之,我們與重要的人分享重要的事。
每當我們與人分享,如果我們真的為別人著想,我們會確保所分享的訊息是準確的,是一些正確的訊息,或起碼是我們自己相信的。而如果我們想別人也相信我們所相信的事,我們會為自己所相信的作見證,希望別人會因為我們堅信自己所分享的而相信我們。在屬靈的領域上,我們會稱這種分享為我們對信仰和福音去作的見證!我們的信仰愈深,我們與人分享信仰和為福音作見證的渴望也愈強。

與人分享信仰有不同程度的效力。
如果我們想別人相信我們所經驗過的,就要分享我們信仰歷程中一些特別及重要的時刻。我們會分享自己皈依的故事,特別是那些從中改造了我們的經歷。那些時刻稱為我們與天主的相遇,不論是天主聖三中的哪一位。
所以,我們一旦經驗到聖神改造的力量,與別人分享我們與天主這些美好的相遇是很自然的事。透過我們的個人見證,聖神能通過我們觸動人心,引導他們去想:「如果其他人能跟天主有這麼奇妙的相遇的話,為我也是有可能的,我也想有這樣的經驗。」隨著我們與主的關係不斷成長,我們會有更多與祂相遇的經驗。當有機會讓我們作個人見證時,我們請聖神啟示給我們哪些與天主相遇的經驗是眼前的這個人或在場的人最需要聽到的。可以肯定的是當我們為聖神發言時,必定有祂的帶領。
在耶穌升天前,祂派遣門徒
往普天下去,向一切受造物宣傳福音,
祂告訴門徒們要成為祂的見證人,去向他人引證耶穌是怎樣的一個人,以及在祂身上發生了什麼事。(參 路加福音 24:46-48) 我們應該做耶穌命令我們做的事,不僅要為這些事作見證,也要告訴別人我們的救主耶穌為我們個人有什麼意義,以及祂為我個人所做的事。我們所分享的會打開別人的眼和心,尤其是那些不信的人,因為這些都是他們眼所未見,耳所未聞的。這就是教會需要見證人的原因!耶穌基督就是以這樣的方法去派遣祂的見證人往普天下去為祂作見證。這就是從古至今所有聖人所做的事,即使他們要面對審訊和迫害。事實上,「殉道者」這個詞源自希臘文 “μάρτυρας” 一字,意思就是「見證人」。在後現代的世界,見證是福傳工作中特別有效的工具。
聖教宗保祿六世教導我們:「現代人寧願聽信見證人多於宣道者;就算肯聽信宣道者,也只是因為那些宣道者同樣也是見證人。」
正如我們藉著送禮物來向人表達心意,為信仰作見證也是一種把自己交出的愛德行為,要記得所有殉道者為基督作證而付出的代價。
這當然不是要向別人證明我們比他們優勝,而是出於一份真正為別人福祉設想的渴望。我們不是要把自己展示成完美的人,因為只有天主是完美的。當我們宣認耶穌是我們生命的主,而別人看到我們的蛻變,我們就能使他們信服。
Emmanuel Célestin Suhard 樞機曾這樣說:
「做見證人,不是要做一個宣傳機器,或是去煽動人的情緒,而是要成為一個生活的奧蹟。意思就是你的生活要令人覺得天主不存在是不可能的。」
世界需要見證人和先知,好使人們能打開眼目看見天主,而世界正渴求著忠信的見證人。身為基督徒,我們透過耶穌和聖神經驗過天主的愛,向萬民作見證和成為彼此間基督的使者,為我們是最自然,也是最負責任的做法!
反思
我有否為我的信仰而雀躍?我有沒有一份渴求去跟別人分享天主的愛,以及我與耶穌個人的相遇?
我是否因為膽怯而沒有為信仰和基督作見證?是什麼阻礙著我大膽地為基督作見證?
我是否覺得沒什麼特別的信仰經歷可以與他人分享?我與天主的關係欠缺什麼呢?
今日禱告
親愛的天主聖神,我知道沒有任何東西能阻礙祢徹底地愛我,並為我提供我所需要的一切。我為祢的所有,也為祢在我身上所做的一切而感謝祢。請祢賜我祢的動力,藉著向世界為基督作見證,去答謝祢的愛。請祢填補我的欠缺,讓我能大膽地為祢和為我的信仰作見證。我雖然還未準備好,但我願意!天主聖神,請派遣我!
伏求聖神降臨,因祢至愛的淨配,聖母瑪利亞無玷聖心有力的轉禱,求祢降臨!
我親愛的孩子,你願意被派遣向世界作基督的見證人,令我十分感動。當你站出來為信仰發聲時,我一定會與你在一起。不要害怕,我會賜給你勇氣,以及你所需要說的話。你對我和我的羊的愛,足以令你完成使命。要記著,我是你翅膀下的風,我能令你高飛!我永遠愛你!
聖神九日敬禮禱文:
伏 求 聖 神 降 臨
伏求聖神降臨,從天射光,充滿我心,爾為貧乏之恩主、孤獨之父、靈性之光、憂者之慰、苦者之安、勞者之息、涕者之樂、吾心之飴客也。
伏求聖神降臨,以潔心污、以灌心枯、以醫心疾、以柔心硬、以暖心寒、以迪心履,伏求聖神降臨也。
以聖神之名,滿信者之心,天主者,賜我等聖神光輝,以長至智、以恆安樂,為我等主基督。亞孟。
第七天 求賜真理
吁,真理和光明之神!你是神聖的火焰和熱力。神聖的真光啊,請驅除我靈魂內的錯誤和疑慮的陰影。請以無比的光芒灼熱及光照我靈魂深處。請恩賜我常常在你的光照下行走,逐退一切錯誤,忠心堅持於教會的真理。求你以神聖的真光庇蔭我,使我常常在你的真理和純然明亮中生活。
向聖母瑪利亞求獲聖神誦

啟:至潔童貞瑪利亞,當你和宗徒們在晚餐廳祈禱時,你充滿了聖神,請為我們祈禱!

眾:天主聖神,請你降臨,充滿你信眾的心,並在他們心中,燃起你的愛火。亞孟。
親愛的天主聖神:我十分肯定世界需要見證人和先知,好使人們能打開眼目看見天主,請使用我去為信仰和為基督做生活的見證。
請祢賜我祢的動力,藉著向世界為基督作見證,去答謝祢的愛。請賜給你勇氣,以及祢所需要我說的話。亞孟
天主,我願為你做見證,求你來用我!
天主聖神,求你來教導我、求你來變化我、求你來改造我,使我成為一個好的器皿來為天主做工。
天主聖神.請來用我!阿門
我希望聖神会令更多人相信我們是有能力及動力去為主見證,一同進入主內
敬愛的天主聖神,求祢賜予我真理,
不要讓假新聞及假訊息橫行在世界裡。???
天主聖神,求祢教導我,賜我智慧,並給我機會,做祢的工具。讓我的思、言、行為、都遵循着主的真理和愛而行。
慈愛的天父,感謝祢讓我在生活中和祢相遇,我願意將這份喜悅和他人分享。親愛的聖神,求祢祢賜我動力和勇氣,以完成這使命,讓更多人有機會感受到天父的慈恩。
