不憑外貌論斷—-約翰福音8:15［你們是以外貌判斷人, 我卻不判斷人.］［小費］一位成功的企業家穿著普通到一家高級西餐廳用餐, 服務員瞧不起他, 對他愛理不理的. 非但沒送茶水, 而且菜也送得特別慢. 這位企業家修養很好, 既沒催促, 也沒抱怨. 很有耐心等候. 後來, 菜總算送上來. 他用完餐, 結了账. 又付了一百美元的小費. 就轉身離去. 服負見他給這麼多的小費, 十分開心. 第二天, 那位企業家又到這家餐廳用餐. 服務員一改昨天冷淡的態度, 殷勤的招待. 企業家微笑享受豐盛的餐點. 他用完餐, 結了賬, 只付了五元的小費. 服務員大失所望的問道：”你為什麼昨天給那麼多, 今天給得這麼少呢？” 回答說”小費當然是跟服務成正比. 我今天付的是昨天的小費, 而昨天付的是今天的小費.” [思考］你看重的是什麼？你對人的態度是否因外貌, 財富或地位而有不同？神看重我們的內心, 是否有聖靈的果子. 有信徒的樣式對待人. ［禱告］親愛的天父上帝, 我們來到祢的面前, 求祢赦免我們的過錯, 在生活中無論是對人對事, 我們常常以自己的標準和喜愛做判斷. 有時會得罪人, 也無意中得罪祢. 求祢鑒察我們, 在我們裏面有什麼惡行沒有, 引導我們走永生的道路. 幫助我們結出聖靈的果子. 有謙卑, 愛心和良善的態度對待每一個人, 有美好的生活見証. 禱告是奉主耶穌基督的名. 阿們！

After finishing the meal, he paid the bill and only paid a tip of five yuan. The waiter asked with great disappointment: “Why did you give so much yesterday?” , why did you give so little today?” He replied, “Of course the tip is directly proportional to the service. What I tip today is yesterday’s tip, and what I paid yesterday is today’s tip.” [Thinking] What do you value? Do you treat people differently based on their appearance, wealth or status?

Treat everyone with humility, love and kindness, and have a good life testimony. Pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!
