聖經閱讀：傳道書3:9-13 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年2月22日(五)
今天經文的作者鼓勵我們要享受生活，在第13節，他說：「我們都應該吃喝，享受辛勞的成果。這是上帝的恩賜。」如果我們想要跟從這樣的教導，下面有幾件事是你今天可以做的。你要喜愛你的家人！你可以抽時間跟你的小孩一起散步、騎車、或玩遊戲，也花一些時間陪陪你的另一半；你也要感謝上帝賜給你家人。 你要享受工作！這點也許對某些人有困難，但是無論你喜不喜歡你的工作，你仍然可以感謝有一份工作。你也可以求上帝讓你看見那些需要鼓勵和安慰的同事。 你要享受上帝創造的世界！你可以欣賞雪花從空中飄下，可以在院子裡跟蹤一隻揹著東西跑的螞蟻，或者在雲朵中發現有趣的造型；你也可以仰望夜晚的天空，同時想著宇宙有多麼的大。 上帝愛你，你就好好享受今天吧！—JK 「他使我們有永恆的意識，卻不讓我們完全明白他一切的作為。所以我想，人不如時常歡樂，一生享福。」 傳道書3:11a, 12
禱告：親愛的主，幫助我享受祢所賜給我的東西。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Enjoy Today!
Bible Reading: Ecclesiastes 3:9-13

The writer of our Bible verses today encourages us to enjoy life. In verse 13 he says, “God wants everyone to eat, drink, and enjoy their work.” If we want to follow this advice, here are some things you can do today. Enjoy your family! Take time to go for a walk, bicycle or play a game with your children. Spend some time with your spouse. Thank God for the family He has given you. Enjoy your job! Some people might have a problem doing this. But whether you like your job or not, you can still be thankful that you have a job. Ask God to show you coworkers who need encouragement and comfort today. Enjoy the world God made! Watch snowflakes as they fall to the ground. Follow an ant as he carries his load in your yard. Find interesting shapes in the clouds. Look at the night sky and think about the vastness of the universe. God loves you. Enjoy today! —JK “God gave us the ability to think about his world. I learned that the best thing for people to do is to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live.” Ecclesiastes 3:11a, 12
PRAYER: Dear Lord, help me to enjoy the things You have given me. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
