聖經閱讀:約翰福音6:25-59 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年4月19日(五)
你有看過風嗎?你有看過將金屬吸往磁鐵的磁力嗎?你曾看過將我們牢牢抓在地球上的重力嗎?沒有!你當然沒看過這些東西。 我們雖然沒看過這些東西,但我們知道它們是真實的。我們相信它們是真實的,是因為我們看見它們對我們的影響。我們看見風吹動樹上的葉子,我們感受到將金屬拉往磁鐵的力量,我們也看見自己站在地上而不是飄浮在空中。 在聖經閱讀的第46節中,耶穌說:「這不是說有誰看見過父親,惟有從上帝那裏來的那一位見過父親。」我們看不見上帝,但是我們知道祂是真實的,因為我們可以看見祂如何影響我們和我們身旁的事。我們看見了大自然的規律,我們看見了上帝對這個宇宙的精密計畫,並且,我們也看見上帝改變了人們的生命。 我們看不見上帝,但是我們可以相信祂是真實的,相信祂創造了我們,並且相信祂愛我們。—GT 「永生的父親差遣了我,我也因他而活。」 約翰福音6:57a
禱告:上帝,我看不見祢,但是我相信祢是真實的。奉耶穌的名,阿們!

Have Faith
Bible Reading: John 6:25-59
Friday, April 19, 2013
Have you ever seen the wind? Have you ever seen the force that attracts metal to a magnet? Have you ever seen gravity that holds us on the earth? No, of course you have never seen those things. We have not seen these things, but we know they are real. We believe they are real because we see the effects they have on us. We see the wind blowing the leaves on the trees. We feel the pull of the metal toward the magnet. We see ourselves standing on the ground, not floating in the air. In verse 46 of our Bible Reading, Jesus said, “I don’t mean that there is anyone who has seen the Father. The only one who has ever seen the Father is the one who came from God. He has seen the Father.” We can’t see God, but we know He is real because we can see how He affects us and the things around us. We see order in nature. We see God’s detailed plan for the universe. And, we see God change people’s lives. We can’t see God, but we can have faith that He is real, that He created us, and that He loves us. —GT “The Father sent me. He lives, and I live because of him.” John 6:57a
PRAYER: God, I can’t see You, but I have faith that You are real. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
