RICHMOND HOUSE GROUP SHARING PAGE

叉住條腰

When I was golfing last week with 2 friends, there was a group of 3 behind us - 1 guy and 2 ladies. This guy was constantly 叉住條腰 and staring at us because he must have thought that we were playing too slow. So for the next few hours he was 叉住條腰 and staring at us. There is a rule in golf that as long as you keep up with the group in front, you are fine and the course marshal will not chase after you. We were keeping up the pace and we were really not that slow. This went on throughout the whole golf game.

I always wonder why people go to play a game of golf and get all stressed out. Are we not supposed to relax and enjoy the game? And he was the one with the ladies but he chose to stare at our behind for the next few hours. And just like life, why do we let something small bother us to no end?  Maybe we 叉住條腰 because we didn’t think it was fair that we got stuck with 3 idiots in front of us. Well, we can choose to 叉住條腰 or enjoy the company of 2 ladies and the white ball in front of you.

That brings me to another point is that if you were one of the 2 ladies, would you enjoy the company of someone who was always 叉住條腰, ignoring you and complaining all the time? Heb 12:15 said: 又 要 謹 慎 、 恐 怕 有 人 失 了 　 神 的 恩 ． 恐 怕 有 毒 根 生 出 來 擾 亂 你 們 、 因 此 叫 眾 人 沾 染 污 穢. The English word for 沾 染 污 穢 is defiled. When you are around someone who is constantly complaining and bitter about their lives, don’t you feel like being polluted and want to stop going out with this person?  

When we finished the game, I was going to wait for him at the end of 18 hole 叉住條腰 to him, and tell him off that we had finished in 4 hours which was well within the 4½ hr. allowed.

But I choose not to do that because I don’t want to be like him.
