In fact, the heroes who received the most ” Thank you cards ” are Lily and Steven. The number of Thank you cards they received far exceeded any other winners ! This shows that the brothers and sisters in Elim had never taken their hard work for granted !
Lily :
It is so heart-warming to receive each of these Thank-you card. I deeply feel that I am very blessed. I am very thankful for each one of our brothers and sister! Thank you very much!
Editor’s notes : It is very clear that Lily prefers “ doing “ to “ talking “ !
Steven :
It is very hard to distinguish “ a job “ and “ a ministry “. One must do his best in his “ job “, because he is paid to do so! As time goes by, the proportion of “ job” is much bigger than “ ministry “ . I think , “ since this is a part of my job, there is nothing worthy for other people’s appreciation, and it is just natural that I have to do the best. “
No matter whether this is a job or a ministry, everybody needs recognition and encouragement. That is why I like Elim Appreciation Day. Through this special event, every one of us ( including myself ) can learn and practice appreciation and say thanks. Finally, thank you Cora for choosing the Ukulele clip for me. I really like it a lot ! Thank you very much !
Editor’s notes : Steven, now you’ve got both the appreciation and the $$ !! Win-win !!
其 實，以 琳 激 賞 日 中收到最多 “多謝咭” 的是萬千寵愛的 Lily 和萬人景仰的 Steven ! 他們所收到的”多謝咭”，遠遠超過其他得獎者！可見以琳的弟兄姊妹，都很有良心啊！
Lily :
收到每一張的多謝咭，裡面每一份的心意禮物，怎不叫人窩心呢? 此外，亦使我更深地體會到我確是生在福中。為到身邊的每一位弟兄姊妹而感恩。多謝哂!!
編者按 : 好明顯,，Lily 是屬於 “ 少說話，多做事 “ 的那一類人！
Steven :
其實很多事都不容易釐定為事奉或是為工作。工作自然是理所當然要做得好，因為人工包左。而隨著年月過去，工作和事奉的比例開始變為工作以一面倒的姿態勝出，也就是說，在我心目中，自己做的一切都變得理所當然，自覺沒什麼值得別人讚賞。
喜歡以琳激賞日，因為無論工作也好，事奉也好，其實都需要認同、需要鼓勵。透過激賞日，每個人(包括自己)也可以重新學習、練習欣賞和感激。最後，好多謝Cora代大家選購給我的Ukulele小夾架，真的很喜歡，多謝！
編者按 : Steven ，現在讚賞又收到，又有糧出，兩全其美啦！
