对今日诗句的想法
敬拜总是关乎“进入”——进入恩典、带着感恩进入、进入与人分享,然而最重要的是,以一种特别的方式进入主的同在。但我们的进入并非敬拜的基础。敬拜是在乎主的信实、良善、和恒久的恩典。像从前的人一样,我们来到神面前,神也等候我们。因着神在过去、现在和将来都不改变,我们赞美他。我们进入并且敬拜。我们能够这样行,是因为神在历世历代中信实地等候我们来到他面前。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Worship is about entering — entering into grace, entering with thanksgiving, entering to share with others, but most of all, entering into the Lord's presence in special ways. However, our entering is not the basis of our worship. Instead, worship is about the Lord's faithfulness, goodness, mercy, gloriousness, and enduring grace. We come to God like so many before us, with God waiting to meet us. We come to praise him for all he has been, all he is, and all he will be. We come to enter and worship. We can do this simply because God is faithful, through all the generations before us, to wait for us to come to him. The Creator of the universe is willing to wait for us — for you and for me. In a world where we are so impatient and do not want to wait for anything or anyone, God chooses to wait for us, welcome us, and faithfully share his goodness and love with us. How can we not return his grace with thankfulness and praise?
我的祷告
信实的神,以色列坚固的磐石,历代所信靠的神啊,惟有你是神。我要赞美你恒久的恩典与怜悯。我要赞美你,因为我渴望将心灵转向你的旨意。我要赞美你,因为我愿在你的同在当中预备我最长久的一生。奉主耶稣之名我赞美你,阿们!
My Prayer...
Faithful God, the Almighty Rock of Israel, the God on whom the generations trusted, you alone, Lord, are God. I praise you for your enduring grace and mercy. I praise you because I want my heart tuned to your will. I praise and thank you because I want to prepare for my longest lifetime — the one in your heavenly presence. Thank you for all you have done to invite me, welcome me, and provide space for me in your presence! I praise and thank you, in Jesus' name. Amen.
