1
This is Daily Reflections on Divine Mercy from My Catholic Life.
2
Today's reflection is entitled, Doing Your Best.
3
St. Mother Teresa is often quoted as saying that God asks us to be faithful, not successful.
4
In other words, we are called to offer our best to the Lord, striving to be faithful to His holy will,
5
and then leave the rest to Him.
6
At times it may appear that our best does not produce the desired good fruit that we desire.
7
Perhaps an attempt you will make at reconciling with another fail,
8
Or perhaps you put your heart and soul into some apostolic work
9
and it never appeared to take off in the way you had hoped.
10
There is great freedom in the realization that all we are called to do is to be faithful, not successful.
11
Success is measured by God, not by human standards.
12
We are truly successful only when we are faithful to the will of God
13
and diligent in committing ourselves to His divine work.
14
If we are faithful in this way, nothing else matters.
15
Do your best and leave the rest to God.
16
Reflect upon your level of commitment to the will of God.
17
Committing yourself to God's holy will is not the same as committing yourself to perfect success in all you do.
18
Even if everything you do appears to end in failure,
19
you please God when you are faithful to Him without worrying about the results.
20
God sees your heart and wants your good works to be offered to Him and done in accord with His will.
21
Nothing else in life matters.
22
Seek fidelity above success, and you will delight the merciful heart of our Lord.
23
Let us pray.
24
Lord, I give myself to you for your service and glory.
25
I commit myself to all that you call me to do, and pray that I may serve your will in fidelity and diligence.
26
Use me, dear Lord, as you will, and help me to leave the rest to you.
27
Jesus, I trust in you.

Shadow Speech分步練習指南
這段影片語速適中,情感真摯,適合用來練習shadow speech。以下是具體步驟:
- 聽辨關鍵節奏:先完整聽一遍,注意“do your best”“leave the rest to God”等短語的輕重讀,模仿其舒緩的語調,這對提高英語發音很有幫助。
- 逐句跟讀模仿:暫停影片,逐句重複。比如“Success is measured by God, not by human standards.”,注意“measured by”的連讀和“not by”的弱讀,感受自然的口語節奏。
- 情感融入練習:嘗試帶著虔誠、釋然的情感朗讀,體會“seek fidelity above success”的深層含義。這不僅能提升口語表達的感染力,也符合雅思口語練習中對情感表達的要求。
- 整段複述挑戰:不看字幕,完整複述影片內容。若遇到卡頓,再針對性練習。堅持shadowspeak訓練,能有效提升口語流暢度。

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
