对今日诗句的想法
我们是神的殿!神住在我们里面。我们如何对待身体,是敬拜神的一部分。神呼召我们不仅要弃绝不洁净,更要以身体荣耀神,荣耀那使我们成圣的赎罪祭。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We are God's temple! God lives in us! We are a holy dwelling of the living and almighty God! WOW!!!
We were made Holy by the price Jesus paid to redeem us (1 Peter 1:18-20). So, now what we do in our bodies is part of the worship we give to God just as much as what we do when we get together with other Christians in worship (Romans 12:1-2). We are called to not only abstain from impurity, but we are called to glorify God in our bodies and honor the sacrifice of Jesus by living holy lives each day. This is worship because we are where God lives through his Spirit. Holy living is not a burden, but a way to say "Thank you!" and offer praise to God for what he has done for us and what he has made in us! We are the temple of God in the Holy Spirit!
我的祷告
天父啊,我要向你承认,有时我忘记了自己的身体对于你是何等宝贵。岁月和其它挑战日益提醒着我,身体会朽坏,难以置信我能以身体荣耀你。愿你的圣灵使我对你同在的尊崇与感恩增长加深。奉主耶稣我赎罪祭之名祈求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Father, I confess to you that I sometimes lose sight of how precious my body is to you and how important what I do with my body is in giving you thanks and praise. With physical temptations so near, I easily forget that it is a holy temple, a place of honor and worship that I offer to you. With aging and the other challenges that daily remind me that my body is a vessel of decay,* I find it hard to believe that I can glorify you with it. Please, through your indwelling Spirit, quicken me to a deeper reverence and appreciation for your presence in me as you renew my body, your temple, day by day. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
* 2 Corinthians 4:16-18.
