تأملات فى آيــة اليوم...
لقد جاء يسوع الى خاصته — العالم الذي خلقه و الارض التى وعد بها شعبه — و شعبه لم يستقبلوه. فى كثير من الاوقات نركز على رغباتنا و احلامنا ليسوع و ننسي ما يريده هو منا و لنا. لنحاول الا نضطر لقول ذلك : ان يسوع قد جاء لى و لكن انا لم اكن مستعد له اذ كنت مشغولا و كنت اريد ان اختبر اشياء قبل ان اسلم له حياتى. كل مرة نؤجل فيها التسليم لمشيئة الله و تسليم حياتنا له قلوبنا تزداد قسوة و يصبح اسهل الا نقبله. الان و قلوبنا مستيقظة لنعمته لنجدد العهد معه و نقدم له قلوبنا و حياتنا من اجل مجده و نعمته.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus came to his own things — the world he had created and the land God had promised his people — and his very own people didn't receive him. Sometimes we are misled by OUR desires and OUR dreams for what Jesus will do for us that we miss what God wants for us and from us. Let's not let the following be true in our lives. "Jesus came to me, but I wasn't ready to receive him. I had other things I wanted to do and other things I wanted to experience before I fully surrendered my heart to him."
Each time we put off surrendering our will to Jesus, each time we push him away as Lord, we allow our hearts to harden, and it becomes easier and easier to push him away. Now, while our hearts are still attentive to his grace, let's renew our commitment to him, wholly and afresh, offering Jesus our hearts and lives to be used for his glory and grace. Let's not put it off. It may be too late for us if we do!
صلاتي
ايها الاله القدوس اسلم قلبى لمشيئتك. يا يسوع الغالى الان اكثر من اي وقت مضى فى حياتى اعترف بك سيدي و الهى و اريد ان اخدمك بحياتى. من فضلك سامحنى من اجل الاوقات التى كنت ارفضك فيها و ارفض ان اتمم مشيئتك. اعلم انك تركت كل شيء من اجل ان تنقذنى. من فضلك شكلنى كما تريد و استخدمنى كى اكون بركة فى حياة غيري و امجد اسمك. آمين.
My Prayer...
Holy God, I surrender my heart to your will. Precious Jesus, now more than ever, I recognize you as my Lord. I want to serve you and honor you in all areas of my life. Please forgive me for resisting your guidance or turning away from your commands. I know you left everything and gave up everything to save me. So now, dear Lord, please mold me into the person you want me to be and use me in ways that bless others and bring you glory. Amen.
