对今日诗句的想法
主手所造的一切环绕着我们。我们看到秩序、美好、与令人目眩的多样性。宇宙的广阔、其中不计其数的星宿、微生物世界,这一切都见证着伟大创造的设计者。神的指纹遍布他所造的世界中,使我们能够知道他在这儿,永不离弃他的受造物。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The touch of the Master's hand is all around us. We can see it in the order, beauty, specificity, and dazzling variety of creation. The great expanse of space, with its billions of stars, along with the incredible world of the microscopic world, is all testimony to an Orderer of great creativity and inestimable power. Our heavenly Father has left his fingerprints all over his world so we can know that he has been here and will not abandon the work of his hands. But, will we respond to this beauty in creation by seeking to live by the ways of the Great Orderer of the universe, or choose for ourselves, or something else to replace God? Will we choose to reflect his righteous character, gracious compassion, and loving justice over our human arrogance and destructive self-will?
我的祷告
噢神啊,感谢你的创造!感谢你创造的美与多样性;感谢你变换季节;感谢你使春天如此美好。然而最重要的,感谢你选择向我们展现——你和你的受造物。奉主耶稣之名祈求,阿们!
My Prayer...
O God, thank you for your creation. Thank you for its beauty and variety. Thank you for the changing seasons and the beauty of Spring and Autumn. Most of all, thank you for choosing to show yourself to us, your creatures, in the things you have created. We pledge to respond to such bountiful grace with loving obedience. We commit our lives and this prayer of thanks to you, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
