聖經閱讀:希伯來書12:1-3 現代中譯本|合和本
2015年7月6日(一)
在夏天的時候,愛荷華州很多人會玩棒球,或是去跑馬拉松。這樣棒的天氣是去戶外運動的完美時刻。 如果有人想要賽跑,他們就必須每天做跑步訓練,他們也必須專注在臝得比賽的目標上,而不被其他事分心。在今天閱讀的經文中,希伯來書的作者談到賽跑,但這不是真正身體的賽跑,而是一場臝得與上帝共享永生獎賞的賽跑。 這些經節告訴我們幾件應該要去做的事。第一,我們應當努力除去生活中的罪;第二,我們應當「注視耶穌」(第2a節);以及第三,我們應當思想耶穌的事蹟,這樣才不會灰心。 我希望你會永遠記得上帝是多麼的愛你。你要天天持續跟從祂,不要放棄! —JK 「想一想他的經歷。他怎樣忍受罪人的憎恨!所以你們不要灰心喪志。」 希伯來書12:3
禱告:天父,求?今天幫助我專注於耶穌。奉主的名,阿們!

Bible Reading: Hebrews 12:1-3
Monday, July 6, 2015
During the summer, many people in Iowa play baseball or run in a marathon. The nice weather is a perfect time to get outside and get some exercise. If a person wants to run in a race, they need to train by running every day. They also need to focus on the goal of winning the race and not let other things distract them. In our Bible Reading today, the writer of Hebrews talks about running a race. But this is not a physical race. This is the race to receive the prize of eternal life with God. These verses tell us several things we should do. First, we should try to remove sin from our lives. Second, we should “never stop looking to Jesus” (verse 2a). And third, we should think about Jesus so that we will not become discouraged. I hope that you will always remember how much God loves you. Keep following Him every day, and never give up! —JK “Think about Jesus. He patiently endured the angry insults that sinful people were shouting at him. Think about him so that you won’t get discouraged and stop trying.” Hebrews 12:3
PRAYER: Father, help me to keep focused on Jesus today. In His name. Amen. |
