2015年4月12日(日)

你信任什麼樣的人的呢？我信任那些跟我說真話、言行一致的人，如果有人對我說謊或不信守承諾，我就再也不會相信他們了。 　今天要來看的字是最常見、用來代表「信心」的字，有時候它也可以表示「相信」，左邊的部份是一個「男人」或「人」，而右邊的部份是「話語」。當一個人言行一致時，我們就知道可以信任他。 　今天閱讀的經文告訴我們可以永遠相信上帝：「他扶起被欺壓的人；他愛惜正直的人」（第8b節）。有時候，我們不能倚靠人，他們會傷害我們，或者讓我們失望，但是上帝卻是永遠信實！ 　無論現在面臨什麼問題，你都可以倚靠上帝來幫助你。今天就信任祂、倚靠祂的信實！ —KP 「上帝創造天、地、海，和其中萬物；他始終持守他的諾言。」 詩篇146:6 禱告：天父，我願每一天都更加信靠祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (尤榮輝譯)

Bible Reading: Psalm 146:1-10
Sunday, April 12, 2015

What kind of people do you believe and trust? I trust and believe people who tell me the truth and do what they say they will do. If someone tells me a lie or doesn't keep a promise, I don't trust them again in the future. 　Our character for today is the most common Chinese word for “faith.” It can sometimes mean “to believe.” The left side means “man” or “person” and the right side means “word.” When a person does what he says he will do, we know we can believe and trust him. 　Our Bible Reading today shows us that we can believe God all the time. “The Lord helps those who are in trouble. The Lord loves those who do right” (verse 8b). Sometimes we cannot depend on other people. They hurt us or fail us. But God is faithful forever! 　No matter what problems you are facing, you can rely on God to help you. Trust Him and depend on His faithfulness today! —KP “He [God] made heaven and earth. He made the sea and everything in it. He can be trusted to do what he says.” Psalm 146:6 PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I want to trust You more and more each day. In Jesus' name. Amen.
