对今日诗句的想法

我爱圣经,因为它是如此折射出了现实生活中的污垢。上述经文中,约翰告诫他的教会,应该要彼此甘愿摆上自己的性命。这听上去冠冕堂皇,特别在你认为还不至于夸张到要为别人死的时候。但是这节经文使得该原则成为每一天的现实应用:在你的教会里是否有人需要帮助?那就采取行动去帮助他们,这就是摆上性命的精髓所在!

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

I love the Bible because it is honest about life with all the gritty dirt of real everyday living. In the previous verse to our verse for today, John told his churches that they should be willing to lay down their lives for each other. That's pretty good in theory, especially when you don't think you will ever have to go to such extremes. I love John making that kind of truth practical to daily life. This verse makes applying that principle a daily reality: Is somebody in your faith circle in need? Then help them; that's what laying down your life is all about!

我的祷告

圣洁,公义的天父,求你大大地使用我,把我当成你的手和心去帮助那些在我身边的人。赐予我慷慨和耐心,使其帮助我成为教会家庭成员的祝福,也能够成为那些还不认耶稣是主的人们的祝福。奉耶稣基督的名祷告。阿们。

My Prayer...

Use me, holy and righteous Father, to be your hands and heart in helping those around me. Give me the generosity and the patience it takes to be a blessing to those in need who are a part of my church family and those who have not yet come to know Jesus as Lord who are my neighbors. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
