信靠上帝

信靠上帝
聖經閱讀：路得記4:13-17 現代中譯本|合和本
2015年7月24日(五)

聖經裡有很多信靠上帝的例子，其中一個例子是拿娥美和她媳婦路得的故事。 　拿娥美和路得從摩押回到拿娥美的故鄉伯利恆，她們兩個人都是寡婦，沒有錢、也沒有人幫助她們，但是她們信靠上帝的照顧。 　上帝透過一個叫波阿斯的人來供應拿娥美和路得的需要。一開始，波阿斯允許路得從他的田裡撿拾麥穗，之後波阿斯請求路得嫁給他。 　今天的經文告訴我們這個故事的美好結局，波阿斯和路得結婚並生下了一個兒子叫俄備得，他就是大衛王的祖父。上帝賜給路得一個兒子來祝福她，而且祂也透過大衛王來祝福以色列民族。 　今天你或許遇到了困難，就信靠上帝並讓祂在你的生命中動工，祂會祝福你、看顧你。 －CL 「上帝是我們的避難所和力量，是我們患難中隨時的幫助。」 詩篇46:1 禱告：親愛的上帝，今天我願完全信靠祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (尤榮輝譯)

Trust God
Bible Reading: Ruth 4:13-17
Friday, July 24, 2015

There are many examples in the Bible of people who trusted God. One example is the story of Naomi and her daughter-in-law, Ruth. 　Naomi and Ruth traveled from Moab to Naomi's hometown of Bethlehem. They were both widows. They had no money and no one to support them. But they trusted God to take care of them. 　God provided for Naomi and Ruth through a man named Boaz. At first, Boaz allowed Ruth to gather food from his fields. Then Boaz asked Ruth to marry him. 　Our Bible verses today tell us the wonderful ending to this story. Boaz and Ruth were married and had a son named Obed. He became the grandfather of King David. God blessed Ruth with a son, and He also blessed the nation of Israel through King David. 　You may face problems today. Trust in God and allow Him to work in your life. He will bless you and take care of you. —CL “God is our protection and source of strength. He is always ready to help us in times of trouble.” Psalm 46:1 PRAYER: Dear God, I want to trust You completely today. In Jesus' name. Amen.
