Two-Way Communication |

By sister
initiate Lilian in UK (Originally in Chinese)
Before going to the international retreat, I made up my mind to join whatever working
team that needed help. Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived, I
was approached by someone who told me that I might be needed
to do interpretation during Master’s lecture. I hesitated,
because I had never done it before and believed that there must
be someone else who is more suitable for this job than me. To
my surprise, I was soon approached again by another sister who
told me the same thing. This time, I felt obliged to comply
with this arrangement, and at the same time I began to panic.
I prayed really hard to God to give me the courage to face this
challenge. |
In the evening, I was asked to go
to the translation room to prepare, and at midnight, Master came to
the meditation hall with Her dog – Hermit. She started to tell
an ancient Chinese story in a relaxing manner. Sitting in the noisy
interpretation room, I looked at Master on the screen and tried very
hard to understand Her every word and sentence before translating
it into Chinese. Then, strange things happened! I started to feel
that I was one with Master and Her words seemed to send images into
my mind. All the noise in the translation room disappeared and there
seemed to be a secret two-way communication between Master and I.
During Her lecture, Master added further explanation here and there
in order to let the audience better understand Her messages. During
the entire process, Master was actually taking care of every key element,
all I needed to do was following the procedure.
From this precious
experience, I have learned many things. One of them is that
there is no need to hesitate when we are given a job that is
correct and beneficial to others, even if we feel we lack experience
or confidence. We should all face the challenge with courage
under God’s guidance. I wanted to escape this noble translation
job because I doubted my own ability. This actually was the
working of the ego, because worrying and feeling a lack of confidence
would actually take me away from God. I also began to understand
that in Master’s eyes we are all part of Her, all perfect.
Master wouldn’t judge us or delegate work according to
our abilities. On the contrary, She uses every opportunity so
we can experience more of the priceless Truth, which is that
we are all one with Her. I have no words to express my appreciation
to God for this invaluable lesson!
