聖經閱讀：哥林多前書13:1-13 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年7月31日(三)
你也許擁有很多才能和技術，但是除非你有愛，否則這些才能和技術都不重要。今天聖經閱讀的第2節說：「我即使有講道的才能，也能夠洞悉各種知識、各種奧祕，甚至有堅強的信心能夠移山倒海，要是沒有愛，就算不了甚麼。」如果你沒有上帝的愛，那麼讀經、甚至將整本聖經背起來也是毫無價值。你可以擁有來自聖靈的各種恩賜，但如果沒有愛，這些恩賜都沒有意義。為什麼呢？因為「愛」是最重要的事情！ 身為基督徒，我們必須為上帝和祂的國度作工，但我們必須記住，當我們跟別人分享耶穌的福音時，總要以慈愛待人。若非如此，我們說的話將只是空話而且不會帶領人得著救恩。 記得今天要以上帝的愛去對待其他人。—RK* 「你們要彼此相愛，像我愛你們一樣；這是我的命令。你們若遵守我的命令，就是我的朋友。」 約翰福音15:12,14
禱告：天父，謝謝祢藉著差派耶穌為我們受死來向我們施慈愛。今天請幫助我以慈愛待人。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

You Must Have Love
Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 13:1-13

You may have lots of talents and skills. But these things are not important unless you have love. Verse 2 of our Bible Reading says, “I may have the gift of prophecy. I may understand all secrets and know everything there is to know, and I may have faith so great that I can move mountains. But even with all this, if I don’t have love, I am nothing.” If you do not have God’s love, then reading and memorizing the entire Bible is worth nothing. You can have gifts from the Holy Spirit, but without love, they have no meaning. Why? Because love is the most important thing! As Christians, we need to work for God and His kingdom. But we need to remember to always show love when we share the Good News about Jesus with others. If not, our words will be empty and will not lead others to salvation. Remember to show God’s love to other people today. —RK* “This is what I command you: Love each other as I have loved you. You are my friends if you do what I tell you to do.” John 15:12,14
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, thank You for showing us Your love by sending Jesus to die for us. Help me to show Your love today. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
