Dr. Szeto commited himself to Jesus Christ and confessed himself a christian in June 2019. He was baptized in Jardan River, Jardan during a Isreal trip in Septemper 2019. He was married to his wife in the same trip in the witness of a pastor and other brothers and sisters.
He loves these two Bible verses:
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6)
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.( 1 Corinthians 13:13)
八十年代我在多倫多認識了國業,其時一個新移民的我,因為人生路不熟頗覺徬惶。而國業在美加早就學有所成,两人差別之大我們仍一見如故,相交逾三十年。
國業學問廣博而全無架子,他的孝順,尤令人津津樂道。他幾十年如一日,盡用一切機會去侍奉双親。國業父親高齡離世後,母親因為阿尔茨海默症入住了士嘉堡頤康老人院。母親在世期間,國業每年都來往港加两地好幾次,每次到步即時〝入職上班〞,除負責喂食母親早午晚三餐外,併為母親洗漱剪指甲。他這種仁心孝心,深得該老人院內上下一致優評。
國業喜歡旅遊,幾十年間足跡遍佈世界各地。他每次出遊,會先了解當地的風土民情和特色要點,做到有的放矢,出行必有收獲。拍照是國業另一種愛好,他會根据照片的時間地點分門別類收藏好,每次向朋友展示時,凭藉良好記憶,趣味十足的解說便娓娓道來。不講不知道,國業還是位美食家呢!他曾將多倫多市內一些日韓歐亚南美口味的食肆,按圖索驥找出來併逐一品嘗,然後去偽存真。有得到國業贊譽的如今仍舊在營運客似云來,亦有被國業差評的早巳關門大吉。這也看出國業的功力。
交談中大家講及宗教信仰,我記得國業說過:很多科學家都是有宗教信仰的。他自己對此不排斥,不忽視,不誤解。我問國業會否信奉宗教?他的回答是:到了要信的時候一定信。好開心,國業終於信奉基督找到歸宿。
交談中大家對死沒有忌諱,國業講過:死不可怕,人總要死一次的。并表示他在人生計划想做的事大部份的都做到了,旅遊過的地方不少,美食也品嘗凡多,要走亦心安。
國業是個心懷大愛的人,他曾通過捐款,資助過不少需要幫助的人群。
國業在家中居幼,他眾多的哥姐各有千秋并非等閑之輩,姨媽姑姐均是有故事的人,希望國業與在天家的親人早日團聚。
