跟聖經學打高爾夫球
作者：林思明
• 假如你在一場高爾夫球裡有一個洞沒打好，千萬要記得這節經文："我只有一件事，就是忘記背後，努力面前的"（腓3:13）。
• ."凡事都有定期，天下萬務都有定時。（傳3:1）" 打高爾夫球有時，不打高爾夫球有時。假如你的股票崩盤，不要去打高爾夫球；假如你心愛的人在醫院裡讓你掛心，也別去打高爾夫球！
• 不要和別人比較你的高爾夫球成績。"我憑著所賜我的恩對你們各人說：不要看自己過於所當看的，要照著神所分給各人信心的大小，看得合乎中道。按我們所得的恩賜，各有不同。（羅12:3/6a）"
• 假如你不知道如何擺動你的身體，那表示你一點也不懂。打高爾夫球時，使用蠻力或亂打會把整件事變得很糟。"你們要休息，要知道我是神！（詩46:10a）"
• 打高爾夫球要根據物理的原則，球滾動得快慢會因為草地的坡度而不同。"江河都往海裡流，海卻不滿。（傳1:7a）"
• "鐵磨鐵，磨出刃來，朋友相感也是如此。(箴27:17)" 跟一個會打高爾夫球的人一起打，彼此可以學到很多功課。
• 倘若你想結交有智慧的人，就跟他們一起打高爾夫球。"與智慧人同行的必得智慧。（箴13:20a）"
• 在綠地上打高爾夫球的規則：不可交談，免得分心！"多言多語難免有過。（箴10:19a）"
• "好生氣的人，不可與他結交；暴怒的人，不可與他來往。（箴22:24）" 下次不要跟他一起打高爾夫球！
• 表現挫敗的情緒是一回事，隨便發脾氣又是另一回事。不要像傻瓜似地又嚷又叫，還把球桿往空中丟，等等。"愚妄人怒氣全發，智慧人忍氣含怒。（箴29:11）"
LEARNING GOLFING WITH THE BIBLE
Written by John Lam
1. When one plays a bad game in one hole, always remember this verse: "One thing I do: Forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead." (Philippians 3:13)
2. "There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under Heaven." (Ecclesiastes 3:1) -------
A time to golf; and a time not to golf.If your stocks crashed, don't golf;
If you can't keep your mind off your loved one in the hospital, don't golf!
3. Don't compare your golf scores with others. "God has allotted to each a measure of faith. We have gifts that differ according to the grace given us, let each exercise them accordingly. " (Romans 12:3, 6a)
4. You ain't got a thing, if you don't know how to swing! In golfing, brute force or frantic move makes things worse. "Cease striving and know that I am God." (Psalm 46:10)
5. The golf ball follows the laws of Physics: it rolls faster or slower according to the slope ofthe green. Cursing or swearing do not help!
"All the rivers flow into the sea, yet the sea is not full." (Ecclesiastes 1:7a)
6. "Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." (Proverbs 27:17) Play golf with a good player. You can learn a lot from each other.
7. Make friends with wise men.Play golf with them. "He who walks with wise men will be wise." (Proverbs 13:20a)
8. Golfing rules on the green: No talking! It's distracting. "When there are many words, transgression is unavoidable." (Proverbs 10:19a)
9. "Do not associate with a man given to anger; or go with a hot-tempered man." (Proverbs 22:24) Next time don't play golf with him!
10. Display of frustration is one thing, but outburst of temper is quite another. Don't make a fool of your self by yelling, screaming, throwing the club in the air, etc. "A fool always loses his temper, but a wise man holds it back." (Proverbs 29:11)
