Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
El cielo es algo que vemos con nuestros corazones. Cuando estamos desanimados, dudosos y deprimidos, nos hace falta que los ojos de nuestros corazones sean iluminados. Es necesario que el amanecer nazca en nuestra oscuridad para quitar nuestra oscuridad y que podamos ver nuestra esperanza y la riqueza de nuestra herencia. Cuando las cosas se ven mal, la única manera de recordar nuestras bendiciones es cantar de ellas, orar por ellas y leer de ellas en las promesas de Dios.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Heaven is something we see now with our hearts through our faith. When we are discouraged, doubtful, and depressed, we need to have the eyes of our hearts "enlightened" so we can live our lives with that hope. The dawn needs to rise in our darkness; as we see the dawn of hope and the riches of our inheritance on the horizon, we can be strong, have faith, endure, persevere, and even thrive in our faith. When things look bad, however, sometimes the only way to remember "the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints" is to sing them, pray them, and read God's promises of them in Scripture. These three spiritual practices awaken our faith to see beyond our circumstances! Paul reminds us that, as brothers and sisters in Christ, we can remind each other of these things when we pray for one another to experience them.
Mi oración
Oh Dios, tu eres mi esperanza. confío en ti y en tus promesas. Aun así confieso que a veces lucho con mi confianza en que vas a actuar en respuesta a mis oraciones y hacer lo que te pido que me ayudes hacer. Lléname con tu Espíritu y consuélame en mis dudas encendiendo mi pasión para que te sirva con denuedo y para que comparta con los demás tu gracia. Por mi Señor Jesús oro, Amén.
My Prayer...
O God, you are my lasting hope. I trust in you and your promises. I admit, however, that at times I struggle with my confidence in my hope that you will act in response to my prayers and do what I've trusted you with my life to do. So, please fill me with your Spirit, who can comfort my doubts, rekindle my passion to serve you with boldness, and to share my hope with others. Thank you for Paul's reminder, and I choose to pray about these hopes, sing about these hopes, and read about these hopes in the Scriptures. Through my Lord Jesus, I pray. Amen.
