完全的信任需要長久的時間

TOTAL TRUST TAKES TIME

過去的年代,一個簡單的握手,就等同完成兩方或多方簽署的合同協議。但多數的情況下,那樣的日子已經離我們很久很久了。事實上,即使是已經簽署的合同,經常被破壞和爭議的程度,也比我們想像的大得多。

 

因此,在二十一世紀的職場,我們必須解決專業和個人生活中,越來越普遍那缺乏信任的問題。在我50多年的商業工作經驗中,我觀察到商業和個人的互動,以及對協議的看法,產生了極大的轉變。

 

完全的信任需要長久的時間。建立和維持信任沒有捷徑,所以,我相信我們必須回到我完全信任的聖經中,向我們提出的基本原則,它教導我們應該如何關注他人的福祉以及我們自己的利益。

 

在我從事保險業務的職涯裡,我親身體驗到了在所有業務往來中,尋求達到「雙贏」方式的價值。有這樣的想法,是在我生命的早期參加團隊運動項目時,幫助著我形成的概念。然而,對我最大的影響,則來自於學習、理解和遵循神話語中的訓詞。

 

大約在三千年前,先知以賽亞就很好地掌握了信任的概念。舊約以賽亞書中永恆的話語在今天仍然適用。以賽亞書222節忠告說:你們休要倚靠世人。他鼻孔裏不過有氣息;他在一切事上可算甚麼呢?」這總結了為什麼完全的信任需要長久的時間。人類的問題是「罪」,那涵蓋著普遍性地傾向自我中心。接著 ,在以賽亞書122節,我們看到了對比。看哪!神是我的拯救;我要倚靠他,並不懼怕。因為主耶和華是我的力量,是我的詩歌,他也成了我的拯救。」以賽亞兩次重複祂的名字,這不是一個錯誤,而是對這位公元前8世紀的先知來說,沒有什麼比全能的神更重要的了。

 

你把你的信任放在哪裡? 我不是說沒有人值得信任但我們需要對我們信任的人 - 包括我們自己 - 保持警覺,並考量個人動機。除了將生命交給神讓祂掌管之外,我們可能會發現,連我們自己都不完全值得信任,甚至是無法相信我們的思想和行為。

 

即使我們與天父有正確的關係,但只要我們活在這個世上,就仍然必須處理我們的罪性 就是有些聖經譯本稱之為「肉體」的問題。我們要如何才能學會變得更值得信賴,也更信任他人呢?我發現與一小群敬虔的人在一起是很有幫助的,這些人在經歷過一段時間後,已經證明了我可以信任他們的幫助,並在我做出重要的人生決定時,給我建議。我同時也學會了依靠我妻子的智慧和洞察力來處理許多個人的決定。

 

聖經中我最喜歡的經文之一談到了信任的問題。在詩篇207節中,以色列王大衛宣稱:有人靠車,有人靠馬,但我們要提到耶和華-我們神的名。」這是我多年來一直信任的地方,神從來沒有讓我失望過。如果你還沒有這樣做,請考慮將你的信任放在主身上,祂看到、知道並掌管萬有。祂從一開始就一直在處理祂所創造的一切 - 並且做得很好。

Jim Langley擔任人壽和健康保險經紀人期間已有30多年,他的寫作經歷也是。近年來,他的熱情轉向寫下他與神的個人關係。他的目標是鼓勵其他人來親近神。他是CBMC的長期會員,在2014年開始撰寫「比賽最後四分之一場戰略」。

 

備註:如果你手上有聖經,想閱讀更多相關的內容,請參考下面的經文:

詩篇251-5

25:1耶和華啊,我的心仰望你。

25:2我的上帝啊,我素來倚靠你;求你不要叫我羞愧,不要叫我的仇敵向我誇勝。

25:3凡等候你的必不羞愧;惟有那無故行奸詐的必要羞愧。

25:4耶和華啊,求你將你的道指示我,將你的路教訓我!

25:5求你以你的真理引導我,教訓我,因為你是救我的上帝。我終日等候你。

箴言35-6

3:5你要專心仰賴耶和華,不可倚靠自己的聰明,

3:6在你一切所行的事上都要認定他,他必指引你的路。

箴言2217-19

22:17你須側耳聽受智慧人的言語,留心領會我的知識。

22:18你若心中存記,嘴上咬定,這便為美。

22:19我今日以此特特指教你,為要使你倚靠耶和華。

約翰福音1235-36

12:35耶穌對他們說:「光在你們中間還有不多的時候,應當趁著有光行走,免得黑暗臨到你們;那在黑暗裏行走的,不知道往何處去。

12:36你們應當趁著有光,信從這光,使你們成為光明之子。」耶穌說了這話,就離開他們隱藏了。

羅馬書1513

15:13但願使人有盼望的上帝,因信將諸般的喜樂、平安充滿你們的心,使你們藉著聖靈的能力大有盼望!

哥林多前書41-4

4:1人應當以我們為基督的執事,為上帝奧祕事的管家。

4:2所求於管家的,是要他有忠心。

4:3我被你們論斷,或被別人論斷,我都以為極小的事;連我自己也不論斷自己。

4:4我雖不覺得自己有錯,卻也不能因此得以稱義;但判斷我的乃是主。

 

反省與問題討論  

第一、根據你的經驗,一般而言,你如何評估職場上的信任程度?

第二、你覺得相信同事、共事的人,或經常與你有業務往來的人,是容易還是困難?請解釋你的答案。

第三、如果你能想到一個你能夠高度信任的人,他有哪些特質或特點讓你覺得他值得信任?

第四、當人們說 「相信神 」是什麼意思?如果你相信神的話,你會如何描述你對祂的信任程度?哪些因素會影響你能夠像詩篇中的經文所說的那樣,「信靠耶和華我們神的名」
