聖經閱讀：希伯來書10:32-39 現代中譯本|合和本
2014年10月13日(一)
從來沒有人因為我是基督徒而對我做過真正的壞事，但是全世界有很多的基督徒受到嚴重的迫害，有時候敵人搶走了他們的家和財產。我很驚訝這些受到迫害的基督徒仍然剛強，並且能鼓勵其他基督徒繼續跟隨耶穌。他們這麼做是因為他們知道有更美好的事──永生──之後會發生。有時候在生活中我會遇到一些小困擾，也許是有人取笑我讀聖經或取笑我去教會。我們今天讀的經文提醒我們要有耐心，並且要心存勇氣和喜樂：「為了實行上帝的旨意和領受他的應許，你們必須忍耐」（第36節）。 面對迫害時很難心存勇氣和喜樂，但是如果我們持續不斷相信上帝，祂就會幫助我們度過艱難的日子。當你今天遇到困難的狀況時，就想一想這些事。 —JK 「我們並不是退卻而沉淪的人；我們是有信心而且得救的人。」 希伯來書10:39
禱告：天上的父，我願永遠跟隨祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Bible Reading: Hebrews 10: 32-39

No one has ever done really bad things to me because I am a Christian. But there are many Christians around the world who are severely persecuted. Sometimes their enemies take away their homes and possessions. I am amazed that these persecuted Christians remain strong and encourage other Christians to continue following Jesus. They do this because they know that something better — eternal life — will happen later. Sometimes I face small persecutions in my life. Maybe someone makes fun of me for reading my Bible or for going to church. Our Bible Reading reminds us to be patient and to keep our courage and joy. “After you have done what God wants, you will get what he promised you” (verse 36b). It is hard to have courage and joy when facing persecution. But if we continue to have faith in God, He will help us through those bad times. Think about these things today as you face difficult situations. —JK “But we are not those who turn back and are lost. No, we are the people who have faith and are saved.” Hebrews 10:39
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I want to always follow You. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
