对今日诗句的想法
你是否发现，本该给那些有需要之人的帮助，很容易被宗教仪式所取代。我知道自己就存在这样的问题！然而神不希望我们过度谈论或颂扬他的作为，而忘记我们应当像神那样关爱他人。不论是路加福音4:18-19主耶稣对其使命的定义，或是雅各所谈论蒙神喜悦的虔敬(雅各书1:26-27)，我们必须明白，真正的信心就是以神的方式对待他人。今天的经文定义了神的作为，并教导我们以同样的方式生活。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Do you find it easy to replace service to those in need with religious rituals? I know many sure seem to do so. However, God wants us not to get so caught up in talking about him and celebrating his deeds that we forget we're supposed to provide hands-on care for others. God loved us so much that he wasn't content just to send us words in a holy book; he also came to us personally as the Word incarnate in Jesus, Immanuel, God with us (John 1:1-18; Hebrews 1:1-3; Matthew 1:23). In Jesus, God cared for people face-to-face with hands-on in love (Mark 1:40-42).
Whether it is Jesus defining his ministry (Luke 4:18-19) or James talking about the kind of piety that pleases God (James 1:26-27), we must realize that true faith always involves treating others as God would treat them (1 John 3:16-18). Today's verse defines what God does and how God feels (Deuteronomy 10:16-18) by instructing us to live as his presence in our world today (John 20:19-22).
我的祷告
噢伟大的神啊，你赐予我们一切的安慰。愿你打开我的双眼，使我看到那些需要你爱的人们，愿你加添我注意力、时间与怜悯，使我能够服务他们。愿主耶稣的工作在我生命中得以彰显。阿们！
My Prayer...
O Great God of all comfort, please open my eyes today to see those who need your love and please give me the heart to do so attentively, investing in them personally and giving my time compassionately to serve them. May Jesus' heart be seen in the work of my hands and bring glory to you, O God. Amen.
