每一天都有許多人搬家，人們會小心打包他們的東西，好讓它們不被弄壞。他們會請搬家公司或是找朋友來幫忙搬到新家，也一定會讓每個人都知道新家的地址。 　在今天的經文中，我們讀到上帝吩咐亞伯蘭帶他的家人和一切所有去一個新的地方。那個新的地方在哪裡呢？上帝並沒有告訴亞伯蘭那是哪裡，但是上帝告訴亞伯蘭，他的新家會是一個很棒的地方，而且祂會祝福他。 　有時侯上帝也會吩咐我們搬家，也許祂會告訴我們搬到國外去，像宣教士那樣服事。或許祂會吩咐我們搬到其他地方，好讓我們可以更有智慧地使用金錢。上帝也可能會吩咐我們搬家，好讓我們接近那些需要認識祂的人。 　亞伯蘭順服上帝搬家──甚至連要搬到哪裡都還不知道。今天就讓你的生命跟隨上帝的帶領。 －JF 「亞伯蘭七十五歲的時候，遵照上主的指示離開哈蘭；羅得也跟他去。」 創世記12:4 禱告：天父，請指示我祢希望我住在哪裡來服事祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (陳萍萍譯)

Moving (1)
Bible Reading: Genesis 12:1-9
Monday, January 19, 2015

Every day many people move to a different home. People carefully pack their possessions so nothing will break. They hire a moving company or call their friends to help them move to the new home. They also make sure that everyone knows their new address. 　In our Bible Reading today we read that God told Abram to take his family and possessions to a new place. Where was this new place? God did not tell Abram where it was. But God told Abram that his new home would be a good place and that He would bless him. 　Sometimes God tells us to move, too. Maybe he tells us to move to a foreign country and serve as a missionary. Or maybe he tells us that we should move to a different home so we can use our money more wisely. God may tell us to move so that we are close to people who need to know about Him. 　Abram obeyed God and moved his family — not even knowing where he was going. Follow God’s leading in your life today. —JF “So Abram left Haran just like the Lord said, and Lot went with him. Abram was 75 years old when he left Haran.” Genesis 12:4 PRAYER: Father, please show me where You want me to live and serve You. In Jesus' name. Amen.
