对今日诗句的想法
我有时渴望像以色列人走旷野时那样，有夜间火柱和日间云柱引领我走过世上的路程。然而神提醒我——他圣灵的同在和永不离弃我的应许。我深信，若我寻求神的荣耀，他将带领我，使我到所当去的地方行出他的旨意，他将以对我今生和来生最有益处的方式祝福我。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Don't you sometimes long for the pillar of fire at night and the cloud by day to guide us as we make our way through life? God gave these blessings to the Israelites during their wilderness wanderings (Exodus 13:21-22; Nehemiah 9:19-21). They never had to doubt God's presence was with them and his care was over them. Then I remember God's promised and abiding presence with us as followers of Jesus. This abiding presence is the Holy Spirit (John 7:37-39; Romans 8:14). The Spirit's presence is coupled with the promise that God will never leave or forsake us (Romans 8:38-39; Hebrews 13:5-6). As we seek God's presence and honor his character, he will get us where we need to be to do his will. We can be assured that he will work in our lives what is most beneficial for us in this life and the next (Romans 8:28). Yes, the Lord is our God and Redeemer, and he directs us in the way we should go!
我的祷告
噢天父啊，愿你引导我到你要我去的地方，进入你想要我服侍的侍工，接触你最想要我感染的人。愿你占据我的心灵去做你的工作，永远不要让我的眼目偏离你将来的荣耀。奉主耶稣之名祈求，阿们！
My Prayer...
O heavenly Father, please guide each of us to the places you want us to be, to the ministries in which you want us to serve, and to the people you most want us to touch and influence. Please, dear Father, capture each of our hearts to do your work and help us never lose sight of your abiding presence now, and the future we have with Jesus when he comes in glory.* In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
* Colossians 3:2-3 & 1 John 3:1-2.
