這一集,我很喜歡。Andy Stanley 在「愛情與約會」系列裡,把哥林多前書 13 章的愛的清單一路念下去——念到幾行特別扎心的地方。I loved this one. In his "Love, Dates & Heartbreaks" series, Andy Stanley reads down 1 Corinthians 13's list of love — and lands on a few lines that cut close.
"No one has ever made you angry — they've just brought the anger out of you."
這句話讓我們停下來。我們很習慣說「他把我惹毛了」,好像那把火是他放進我裡面的——但那把火,其實一直是我的。This line stopped us. We're used to saying "he made me angry" — but the fire was always ours.
別再開那個檔案櫃 Stop opening that file cabinet
他接著講愛「不計算人的惡」,用了一個畫面:一個檔案櫃,專門收著對方的舊帳。He moves on to love "keeps no record of wrongs" — the image of a file cabinet kept just for the other person's old faults.
"Forgiving and then pretending to forget is always your best bet."
這句話我們想留下來。神手上也有一整個裝滿我們過犯的檔案櫃——祂沒有忘記,只是從來不打開。This is the line we wanted to keep. God has a file cabinet on us too — He hasn't forgotten, He just never opens it.
翻舊帳的那一刻,其實是一種權力遊戲——誰提起過去,誰就站得比較高。The moment you reach for that file, it's a power play — whoever brings up the past stands above.

「不輕易發怒,不計算人的惡。」(哥林多前書 13:5)
"It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs." (1 Corinthians 13:5)
透過耶穌這道路,走回與天父重建的依戀關係,是我們所知所行一切的根基。This path through Jesus — to rebuild our attachment with the Heavenly Father — is the foundation beneath everything we know and do.
