be kind to one another verse的八卦，Yahoo名人娛樂都在討論

“A man has joy by the answer of his mouth, And a word spoken in due season, how good it is!” ‭‭(Proverbs‬ ‭15:23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

A word at the right time can only be a divine matching whereby God gives the preacher a prompting of what to speak based on the situations that the hearers are facing at the moment.

There are 31,102 verses in the Bible—only God can take the perfect verse for a person’s situation and deliver it to him/her at the right time.

This kind of prophetic preaching takes a conscious listening to the Spirit—being willing to give up what one has prepared with his own mind to flow with what God wants to say.

The result of obeying the Spirit’s leading? The hearers are built up in their faith—they are flooded with a sudden realization that their living God loves them and is intimately involved in their challenges, working to turn everything around or their good.

We need more preachers like that who have enough of God’s word inside them so that the Spirit can activate the gift of prophesying and bring those verses to remembrance at the right time.

“But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, exhortation, and consolation. He who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the assembly.” ‭‭(1 Corinthians‬ ‭14:3-4‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

We need Spirit-led, prophetic preaching back in all churches! 🙏

原諒. 有時候真的很難. 但如果主耶穌能原諒全世界, 和我這位有過去、充滿缺點的浪子回頭, 我怎麼能claim His name and 不學祂然後不原諒別人呢??? 我謙卑了....... "並要以恩慈相待, 存憐憫的心, 彼此饒恕, 正如神在基督裡饒恕了你們一樣." ~ 以弗所書 4:32 Truth. WORDS manifest.
(btw, 雖然有點短, Lecrae的一段超屌!)

FORGIVENESS. it ain't always easy. actually, it's usually pretty damn hard! but if Jesus can forgive the entire whole wide world, how can I, a prodigal son full of deficiencies with a past rap sheet, stand here and claim His name and not forgive others??? i've been humbled....... "Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you." ~ Ephesians 4:32 Truth. WORDS manifest.
(btw, even though his verse is a lil short, Lecrae killed it!)

This is an English cover of "Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana" (The Only Flower in the World), a well-known song performed by Japanese boy band SMAP (founded in 1988 and disbanded just last year in 2016), with lyrics by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara.

While I usually create my own translations, there was already a fantastic English version of this song by Hiromi De Young (YouTube linked below in the credits), and a great translation of the chorus by Nelson Babin-Coy (channel also linked). I used my favorite parts of each of these and made a few of my own changes.

I hope this song's message of acceptance and uniqueness reaches a larger audience through my cover.

Enjoy!

*Note: As usual, most of the translation is very close to the original meaning, but the second pre-chorus (the verse starting with "I saw a small flower...") is actually quite different from the original. However, I loved these lyrics so much that I kept them :)

The original meaning of the verse in Japanese is:
I didn't even know his name
But he gave me a smile that day
Just like a flower that was blooming
In a place where nobody would notice it

今日は、昨年解散したSMAPの「世界に一つだけの花」を英語で歌ってみました♪

今回の英語詞はいつもと違って他人の訳詞を使わせていただきました。Hiromi De Youngによる素晴らしい英訳とNelson Babin-Coyによるサビ部分の素敵な英訳に、自分の変更を少し入れて歌わせていただきました。（お二人のYouTubeチャンネルへのリンクは下記のクレジットに記載しました。）

私のカバーを通じて、他人に対する寛容さと個性の大切さという、この曲のメッセージがより多くの人に伝わると嬉しいです。Enjoy!

※ちなみに、この英訳はいつものようにかなり原曲の歌詞に近いのですが、2番目のＢメロ（「I saw a small flower」から始まるところ）だけが原曲の意味とかなり離れています。それでも、ここの英語詞があまりにも素敵だったのでそのままにしました(^^)/

I saw a small flower as I walked by
通り過ぎたら小さな花を見つけた
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
その花は影の中から空へと伸びていた
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
そして思った　私もその花と同じように
Reaching for my own dream and saying...
自分の夢に手を伸ばして　こう言おう

No. 1にならなくてもいい
(No. 1 ni naranakute mo ii)
もともと特別なOnly one
(moto-moto tokubetsu na "Only one")

I saw all the flowers lined up on display
The shop full of colors with their scented embrace
We all have a blossom we like more than the rest
But I think, with flowers, they all are the best

No fighting or envy, they never contend
But smile in the sunlight and sway in the wind
They all know their mission, it fills them with pride
Everyone is different yet all are alike

I wonder why people must always compare
And judge one another it seems so unfair
To place color, status, and looks to the test
For how can these show us who’s the best?

Just like these flowers
In the whole wide world, you are one of a kind
Cherish your uniqueness, no, you don't need to hide it
Each one of us holds our own special seed
So just be true to you, that's all you'll ever need

A man stood beside me and peered with a sigh
He puzzled and pondered but could not decide
With so many flowers and various hues
All were so pretty, which one should he choose?

Suddenly, a big smile broke out on his face
Flowers in all different colors and shapes
He gathered up a bouquet with one of each kind
Hugging them softly with joy in his mind

I saw a small flower as I walked by
It stretched from the shadows to reach for the sky
I thought to myself, what if I was that way
Reaching for my own dream and saying...

そうさ　僕らも世界に一つだけの花
(sou sa bokura mo sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana)
一人一人違う種を持つ
(hitori hitori chigau tane wo motsu)
その花を咲かせることだけに
(sono hana wo sakaseru koto dake ni)
一生懸命になればいい
(isshou-kenmei ni nareba ii)

Small flowers, big flowers, all kinds of flowers
You will never find one that’s just like any other
So you don’t need to struggle to be number one
Just be yourself because there’s only one

La la la la...
