对今日诗句的想法

我们会像以扫那样,因生活中平凡的事物与肚腹而受干扰,忘却了长远的事物。神的话语,所书写记录的话语——圣经,在主耶稣生命中所展现的话语,在福音中所传扬的话语,才能永远支撑我们,是我们所寻求的食物。

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Like Esau,* we get so diverted, distracted, and disturbed by the mundane things of life — things like growling bellies and petty jealousies. The evil one uses these to lead us to forget the longer-range view of things and the important promises of God's Scriptures. God's incarnate Word (Jesus), his written Word (the Scriptures), and his proclaimed Word in the Gospel are what can sustain us eternally. These are the nourishing sustenance of God's living bread we seek, the true daily bread we need God to supply (Matthew 6:11).



*Esau sold his birthright to his brother, Jacob, for a pot of red stew.

我的祷告

真而信实的神啊,愿你的圣灵使我内心对你的话语胜过对食物的饥渴,因你的话语是生命更重要的需求。我承认,曾因生命中无足轻重的事物而受干扰,未能寻求你的话语,未能尽全力滋养我的灵魂。愿你饶恕,我重新下决心,靠着你的话语和圣灵,我要更专注于你的带领和你的真理。奉主耶稣之名祈求,阿们!

My Prayer...

True and Faithful God, please create in me a hunger for your true and enduring Word, your living Bread. Please help me recognize that your Bread is much more necessary for my life than any physical food. I confess that at times I have been distracted by mundane things in my life and have not sought your Word, your Living Bread, to nourish my soul. Please forgive me as I recommit myself to be more attentive to your leading and your truth in your Word, as I am led by your Spirit. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray and make this commitment. Amen.
