…愛
聖經閱讀：哥林多前書13:1-13
2012年8月18日(六)

聖靈賜下的第一樣東西是「愛」。如果要十個人來解釋「愛」這個字，可能會得到十個不同的答案。今天，世上很多人對「愛」感到困惑，有些人認為愛只是美好的感覺，或者是得到了想要的東西，但是，今天的經文給了我們不同的解釋。 耶穌就是「愛」的最佳典範。當我讀哥林多前書第13章時，我就想到耶穌，因為所有經文中有關「愛」的描述，完全適合耶穌。我知道耶穌對人恆久忍耐又有恩慈，耶穌祂不嫉妒、不自誇，也不驕傲。這些經節告訴我，當耶穌待在世上的時候是如何行事為人，這也讓我知道我每天應該如何行事為人。 現在，你呢？如果把你的名字放在這些經節裡，這些話還成立嗎？你是否對人恆久忍耐又有恩慈？你是否不自私而且喜愛真理？ 今天，你要好好想一想這些經文，要努力活出並行出耶穌的樣式！ —JK。 「然而，信心、盼望，和愛這三樣是永存的，而其中最重要的是愛。」哥林多前書13:13 禱告：天父，我愛祢，請幫助我更像耶穌。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (尤榮輝譯/台南聖教會英語團契)

...Love
Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 13:1-13
Saturday, August 18, 2012

The first thing the Spirit gives is love. If I ask ten people to explain the word “love,” I would probably get ten different answers. Today many people in the world are confused about love. Some people think that love is just feeling good or getting what they want. But our Bible Reading today gives a different explanation of love. Jesus is the greatest example of love. When I read 1 Corinthians, chapter 13, I think about Jesus. All of these descriptions about love fit Jesus perfectly! I know that Jesus is patient and kind. Jesus is not jealous, He does not boast, and He is not proud. These verses show me how Jesus acted when He was living on earth. They also show us how we should act every day. Now, what about you? If you put your name in these verses, are the words still true? Are you patient and kind? Are you unselfish and happy with the truth? Think about these verses today. Try to live and act like Jesus! —JK “So these three things continue: faith, hope, and love. And the greatest of these is love.”1 Corinthians 13:13 PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I love You. Help me to be like Jesus. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
