اندیشه ها در مورد آیه امروز...
عيسى بدنيا آمد مثل هر بچه معمولى ديگر: زمان معين فرا رسيد، مادرش او را بدنيا آورد، در پارچه نرم( قنداق) پيچيده شده بود، و در يك گهواره نهاده شده بود. تنها فرقى كه با بچه هاى ديگر داشت اين بود كه او پسر خدا بود. گهواره او يك گهواره نوزاد نبود، بلكه جايگاه جمع آورى علوفه ذرت بود كه حيوانات از آن ميخوردند، اتاق او يك اصطبل بود، چون جايي برايش موجود نبود. تولد او نه تنها معمولى بود؛ بلكه استاندارد و حتى زير شرايط معمولى قرار داشت. آيا ميتوانيد تصورش را بكنيد؟ خداى قدوس و آفريننده تمام چيزها همچون يك نوزاد پا به جهان ما ميگذارد تا روش زندگى را همچون يكى از ما تجربه كند. چرا؟ چونكه او ما را دوست دارد و ميخواهد ما را به سرمنزل جاودانى پيش خود ببرد.عالى است! يك داستان عالى. عشقى عالى. خدايي عالى!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Despite Jesus' miraculous conception in Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord entered our world in the most common of ways. The time came to be born, his mother went into labor, she gave birth to her child, the child was welcomed and wrapped in soft cloths, and placed in a crib. Jesus' birth wasn't just "normal"; it was common, even below average conditions for his birth. When the Son of God was born, he wasn't placed in a crib. Instead, he was placed in a manger where animals ate. His room was in a house, but a stable. No one made room for him in an inn or a house. Neither of his parents' families opened their homes or hearts to him, even though Bethlehem was also their likely destination for the census. The holy God who created everything enters our world as baby Jesus to share our way of life as one of us in such low circumstances. Why? He loves us and wants us to know we can come home to him no matter our circumstances. Incredible... incredible story... incredible birth... incredible love... because of our incredible God!
دعای من
اى خداوند، خداى قادر مطلق، من چگونه ميتوانم بتو نشان دهم كه هديه پسرت چقدر برايم باارزش است؟ من غرق شگفتى و خوشى شده ام كه تو مرا اينگونه بطور بينظيرى محبت نموده اى. لطفن تمجيد و ستايش مرا هم بخاطر خودت و هم بخاطر پسرت بپذير. اى پدر مهربان، حمد برتو بخاطر هديه غيرقابل توصيفت . بنام مسيح. آمين.
My Prayer...
O Lord God Almighty, how can I ever show you how much the gift of your Son means to me? I am struck with wonder and joy that you should love me this sacrificially and tenderly. Please accept my praise and adoration for both the gift of your Son, Jesus, and your love in sending him. Praise to you, loving Father, for your indescribable gift! In Jesus' name I thank you. Amen.
