对今日诗句的想法
天上的星一直与神百姓的盼望相联系。神告诉亚伯拉罕,“我必叫你的子孙多起来,如同天上的星”;大卫在诗篇中说道,“人算什么,你竟顾念他?”;而来自东方的博士,则跟随着星星找到了主耶稣。路加提醒我们,主耶稣是从天降下的光,来到我们中间,照亮在黑暗中的人。现在,我们就是那星。正如黑暗夜空中的点点繁星,让我们使今天成为以神的荣光照亮身边黑暗的日子。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Stars! They've always been a source of constant hope for God's people. "I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven..." God told Abraham (Genesis 22:17). "When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them..." David asked (Psalm 8:3-4). The Wisemen, Magi from the East, followed a star to discover baby Jesus (Matthew 2:1-2). Luke reminds us that Jesus was the light coming from heaven to shine on those in darkness (Luke 2:32). And now, we're stars — God's points of light in the dark sky of the universe. Let's make today a day that our light shines God's glory to a dark world around us. We will live for Jesus without complaining or arguing, living pure lives so we can shine God's grace to those who do not know him through Jesus! Let's hold out the word of life in our dark world.
我的祷告
全能的神啊,你所造宇宙的浩瀚,包括其中数十亿星球,都超乎我的理解。但我要感谢你,使我能够在黑暗的世界做光。我起誓要尽我所能以你的光照亮他人的生命。奉主耶稣——明亮晨星之名祈求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Almighty God, the incredible expanse of your universe, with its billions of stars, exceeds my limited comprehension. But I thank you for calling me to be a person of light in the dark world around me. I pledge to shine your light in the lives of all those I influence. Through the name of Jesus, your bright and morning star,* I pray. Amen.
* Revelation 22:16.
