تأملات فى آيــة اليوم...
لست اعلم. لست اعلم! لا بد ان هذه احدى اصعب الجمل بالنسبة لنا. لكن عند التفكير فى الله وأعماله، هذا هو كل ما يمكننا حقا قوله. كل ما نعرفه عن الله هو فقط ما اختار ان يكشفه لنا بنعمته و هو سر الاسرار. هو اسمى مجهول يمكن معرفته. ما نعرفه فعليا عنه، ما اختار ان يكشفه لنا فى يسوع، ليس فقط عظيم ورائع، لكن محب ورؤوف.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
"I don't know!"
This sure seems to be one of the hardest phrases for us to say. When thinking about God and his ways, especially his work on us and plans for us made when we were in the womb, that's really all we can say. "I don't know!" The truths we know about God and his ways with us when we were in the womb are only what he has chosen to reveal to us. He is the Mystery of mysteries. He is the supreme unknowable Knowable. Yet what we do know of him, what he has revealed to us in Jesus, is not only mighty and awesome, but loving, tender, and merciful. We know his love is willing to sacrifice for us, so we could seek after him and find his grace. So in reverence, we kneel to pray to the Father we cannot fully know — at least not yet, but will one day (1 John 3:1-3) — but can be fully assured that he loves us and wants us near to him.
صلاتي
لك يا الله، كل ما استطيع تقديمه هو التعجب والخشية. عندما افكر فى ضخامة الكون الذى يدور فيه كوكبنا الازرق الصغير، اتواضع امام سيادتك الرائعه السائدة. فى نفس الوقت يا أبا الآب، اقدر قربك. انت تعلو فوق كل ما اعرفه، تتجاوز الفضاء والوقت، وانت أيضا الله أبى الموجود فى كل مكان. اشكرك لأنك يمكن الوصول اليك ، انك متاح لكن ليس بالامكان التحكم فيك. في اسم يسوع امجدك واشكرك. آمين.
My Prayer...
To you, O Lord God, I offer my wonder and awe. When I consider the vastness of the universe in which our tiny blue planet spins through its existence, I am humbled by your wonderfully complex and expansive sovereignty, often expressed in tender mercy. As I ponder your greatness, dear Abba Father, I also treasure your nearness. You are the good Father who transcends space and time, yet you also are the almighty God who is ever near. Thank you for being accessible while being sovereign, available while not controllable. I thank you and praise you in the name of Jesus as I draw near to experience you more fully. Amen.
