对今日诗句的想法

正如我们进入一个与感恩相关的月份一样(美国的感恩节发生在11月)这则来自摩西的提醒很重要!所以,当事情进展顺利时候,我们很容易忘记感恩。当我们处于困境时很容易抱怨,并祈求上帝帮助我们,我们常常觉得我们“值得”接受发生在我们身上的好事。神提醒我们,我们所拥有的仅仅是他承诺的优雅和信实的确认。我们需要相互提醒,祝福来自他的手,不是因为我们比别人更配得上。

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

As we enter the month, often associated with giving thanks and sharing our resources with others on Giving Tuesday, this reminder from Moses is an important one! We so easily forget to give thanks when things are going well. It's easy for us to whine and ask God to help us when we are in trouble, but so often, we feel like we "deserve" the good things that happen to us. God reminds us that what we have confirms his grace and faithfulness to do what he has said. Let's remind each other that our blessings come from his hand, not because we deserve them more than someone else. In addition, God blesses us so that we can share his blessings with others (2 Corinthians 9:10-11). We are called to be conduits of God's blessings and grace.

我的祷告

慷慨的父亲,原谅我的健忘。在内心深处,我知道我配不上你已经倒入到我的生活中的美好的东西,但我有时发现自己觉得是我赢来的。用你的圣灵把我打造成像耶稣一样,值得所有好的,他放弃一切来到人间,给我无法想象的最大的礼物 — 你的救赎之礼!非常感谢你的这份恩典以及已经撒向了我的许多其他我配不上的礼物。以耶稣的名字,我感谢你们。阿门。

My Prayer...

Generous Father, forgive me for my forgetfulness and occasional stingyness. In my heart, I know I don't deserve all the good things you have poured into my life. Sometimes, however, I find myself thinking that I've earned them because I work hard and deserve them. Use your Spirit to forge in me a heart like Jesus' heart. Our Lord did deserve everything good and yet gave it all up to come to earth and give me the greatest gift imaginable — the gift of your salvation! Thank you so much for this gift of grace and the many other undeserved gifts you have lavished on me. In Jesus' name, I thank and praise you. Amen.
