تأملات فى آيــة اليوم...
واضح ان هذه عبارة لم يرها العجوز البخيل! لطالما خصص الله مؤن للفقير. فى هذا الوقت من السنة عندما يهتم الناس بالفقراء، لنخصص اسبوع فى شهر مايو وشهر اغسطس نكون كرماء فيه طوال الوقت. علينا الا ندع الكرم والاهتمام بالفقراء يكون مرة كل عام!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Apparently, this is a passage Scrooge hadn't seen! Unfortunately, I fear this is also a passage many of the Father's children haven't taken very seriously. God set aside ways for his people to help the poor, the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow. So, at this time of the year when many of us are more aware that we need to help those less fortunate, let's also open our date books, diaries, and schedulers, then find a date next year to dedicate ourselves to generosity in a special way. Let's also ask the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with appreciation for God's generous gifts to us and commit to a life of generosity all year long. God wants generosity to be our lifestyle — our "Christyle" — always.
صلاتي
لكل هبات اللطف والنعمة، اشكرك يا ابى ويا إلهى. من فضلك حرك قلبى لأهتم بالآخرين مثلما تفعل. من فضلك ساعدنى لأبقى تلك الروح حية طوال السنة وليس فقط وقت عيد الميلاد. باسم يسوع اصلى. آمين.
My Prayer...
I thank you for all your wonderful gifts of kindness and grace, dear Father and God. Please stir my heart to care for others as you do. Please help me keep that spirit of concern and generosity alive all year long and not just around Christmas time. In Jesus' name, I ask this. Amen.
