تأملات فى آيــة اليوم...
الوحدة تأتى من روح الله عندما نتبع يسوع. لكن الوحدة لها غرض اعمق بكثير من مجرد التوافق مع بعضنا البعض. لقد صلي يسوع من اجل ان نكون واحد لكى يعرف العالم ان الله ارسل يسوع ابنه للعالم (يوحنا 17). نريد ان نتحد لكى يجلب تسبيحنا مجدا لله. ان الوحدة شئ اكبر من ان يكون هدف. الوحدة عملية يعرف العالم الله من خلالها. وفى نفس الوقت، نمجد الآب الذى ارسل يسوع لينقذنا. ان ارشاد الناس ليسوع وتمجيد الله هو اساس الحياة من اجل يسوع! لنجعل الوحدة شغلنا الشاغل !
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Unity comes from God's Spirit as we all draw closer to Jesus (John 17:20-21). As we are drawn to Jesus through the Spirit, we immediately find ourselves drawn closer to one another (1 John 1:1-4). Unity also has a purpose much deeper than our getting along with each other. Jesus prayed we would be one so that the world would know that God sent him into the world as the Son to save the world (John 3:16-17, 17:21, 23). We want to be united so that our praise can bring glory to God and lead others to him. Unity is far more than a goal; it is a process through which the world learns of Jesus. At the same time, we glorify the Father who sent Jesus to save us when we live together in unity. Leading others to Jesus and glorifying God are what living for Jesus is all about! Let's make unity one of our deepest passions.
صلاتي
الهي العظيم، انا اسف واطلب مغفرتك على كل افعالى وكلامى الذى جلب الاذى للناس فى عائلتك وجرح وحدة كنيستك. ارجوك بارك مجهوداتى و أنا اسعى ان اعيش من اجل مجدك وأحاول تشجيع الاخرين. في اسم يسوع اصلى. آمين.
My Prayer...
Great and Almighty God, you are the eternal strength for all who call on your name. I apologize and ask your forgiveness for everything I've done and every word I've spoken that has hurt others in your family. I do not want to cause a wound to the unity of your Body, the church. So please, bless my efforts as I seek less of my will, long to live for your glory, and seek to draw close and encourage others. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
