我看過一個電視節目，當中的人必須在野外求生，他們必須自己搭棚子、自己補獵物來吃。參與這項冒險活動的人大大地改改變了自己的生活，他們必須放棄許多個人的享受來求生。
今天經文的第12節告訴我們，十二個使徒在傳講耶穌的事蹟，然後他們對人們說，應該要「改變他們的心與他們的生命」。

當我們信耶穌並且改變自己的生命時，就必須放棄許多從罪而來的享受，然後我們才能為耶穌而活並且預備好跟上帝永遠同住。
我希望你願意放棄一切——甚至是你自己的生活——這樣你就能跟隨耶穌。今天就仔細檢視自己的生活，找出你生命中有罪的地方，然後求上帝赦免你並幫助你改變。 —SH*

「耶穌到加利利去，宣講上帝的福音。他說：『時機成熟了，上帝的國快實現了！你們要悔改，信從福音。』」 馬可福音1:15

禱告：天父，祢改變我、預備我進入祢國度的方式，讓我感到興奮。 奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Lessons from Mark (3)
Bible Reading: Mark 6:7-13
Monday, February 15, 2016

　I watched a TV show where people had to live off the land. They had to make their own shelter and hunt for their food. The people involved in this adventure made many changes in their lives. They had to give up some personal comforts in order to survive.
Verse 12 of our Bible Reading tells us that the twelve apostles talked about Jesus. Then they told the people that they should “change their hearts and lives.”

When we follow Jesus and change our lives, we need to give up the comforts of sin. Then we will be living for Jesus and ready to live forever with God.
I hope you are willing to give up everything — even your own life — so you can follow Jesus. Look closely at your life today. Find areas of sin in your life and ask God to forgive you and help you change. —SH*

“...Jesus went into Galilee and told people the Good News from God. He said, ‘The right time is now here. God’s kingdom is very near. Change your hearts and lives, and believe the Good News!’” Mark 1:15

PRAYER: Father, I am excited about the ways You are changing me and preparing me for Your kingdom. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
