对今日诗句的想法

在这个时代,尊重鲜为人知,更少人这样做,对长辈们的尊重更是常常被忽视。然而,因主自己的真理,尊重长辈正好排在敬畏上帝之后。但是,我们不应该感到惊讶,因为上帝把孝敬父母放在针对我们与他人的关系的戒律的第一条(十诫 — 出埃及记20) — 前四个诫是针对我们与他的关系!

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

In an age where respect is little known and even less practiced, showing honor for those who are older is often overlooked. Yet in this scripture, by the Lord's own word, showing respect for the elderly ranks right up there with reverencing God. But then we shouldn't be surprised since God made honoring parents the very first commandment directed at our relationship with others (Exodus 20:12-17). (The first four commandments were directed at our relationship with him — Exodus 20:1-11). Let's be distinctive in contrast to most of the world: let's honor, respect, and care for those who are older among us!

我的祷告

神圣永恒的上帝,为我父母的肉体和信心感谢你。请给我的精神导师们特别的祝福。如果没有他们的指导,我不知道我会变成什么样子。请帮我,让我随着年龄的增长,不仅成熟,而且还获得好的性格去好好影响那些你安排在我面前的人们。愿老老少少,我们这一代在你面前恢复相互间的尊严和尊重。以耶稣的名祷告。阿门。

My Prayer...

Holy and Eternal God, thank you for my parents in the flesh and in the faith. Please give those who have been my spiritual mentors a special blessing. Without their guidance, I'm not sure how I would have matured and become useful to your Kingdom. Please help me as I grow older. I want to mature in my faith and gain the character that will be needed by those you have placed before me to influence. May we, your people, both young and old alike, restore dignity and respect to our relationships before you in our generation. In Jesus' name, I ask this. Amen.
