اندیشه ها در مورد آیه امروز...
آيا اين خنده دار نيست كه هنگاميكه ما شروع به يافتن شادى، خوشى يا احترام و مهم بودن يا معنى در زندگى ميكنيم، آنها را بندرت مييابيم. در عوض، هنگاميكه ما به ديگران خدمت ميكنيم و خود را كاملن و با تمام وجود به خدا و خدمت او ميسپاريم، ما آن چيزى را مييابيم كه مهمترين نياز ما است.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Isn't it sad that when we set off to find happiness, joy, significance, or meaning, we seldom find it the way we hope to find it? Instead, when we offer ourselves to serve others and give ourselves wholeheartedly to the Lord and his work, it is then that we find what we most need and what is most fulfilling. Plus, in doing this service to others, we resemble our Savior (Mark 10:43-45) and are assured that God is honored and will honor us (Philippians 2:6-11), because of how we live.
دعای من
اى بخشنده تمام عطاياى كامل و نيكو، امروز از تو ميخواهم كه بمن فرصتى دهى تا تو و ديگران را خدمت كنم بطوريكه ملكوت تو و جلال آنرا نشان دهد. اگر تو در اين روند صلاح دانستى كه نيازهاى قلبى مرا نيز رفع منى، از اين بابت سپاسگزارم. اين دعا را بوسيله خادمت عيسى تقديم ميكنم. آمين.
My Prayer...
O Giver of every good and perfect gift (James 1:17-18), please bless me with opportunities to serve others and honor you in ways that demonstrate your grace and bring the reign of your kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. When, in the process of serving others, you choose to meet the needs of my heart, I thank you for this double opportunity to give grace and receive it. I pray this through your servant Jesus, and to be transformed by the Spirit to be evermore like him. Amen.
