分心

分心
聖經閱讀：馬太福音6:25-34 現代中譯本|合和本
2015年8月20日(四)

世上有許多事可以讓我們分心、不再跟隨上帝。簡訊、手機、電子郵件和臉書讓我們一直很忙碌，而認為沒有時間禱告和思想上帝的話語。 　因為身邊有太多讓我們分心的事，所以我們必須安排每天跟上帝安靜相處的時間。找一個你可以獨處的地方，關掉電視機，把筆電和手機都收起來，然後花時間讀經並跟上帝交通。 　當花時間跟上帝在一起時，我們就會少一點憂慮。今天閱讀的經文提醒我們不要憂慮生活中需要的東西，而必須記得上帝愛我們，而且會一直看顧著我們。 　要專注於上帝和祂的話語，不要讓世事來使你分心。 －TS 「你們要先追求上帝主權的實現，遵行他的旨意，他就會把這一切都供給你們。不要為明天憂慮，明天自有明天的憂慮；一天的難處一天擔當就夠了。」 馬太福音6:33-34 禱告：天父，今天我願專注於祢，我願天天更多服事祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (尤榮輝譯)

Distractions
Bible Reading: Matthew 6:25-34
Thursday, August 20, 2015

There are many things in the world that can distract us from following God. Text messages, phone calls, e-mails and Facebook keep us busy. We think that we don’t have time to pray and think about God’s Word. 　Because there are so many distractions around us, we need to plan to spend quiet time with God every day. Find a place where you can be alone. Turn off the TV and put away your laptop and phone. Spend time reading the Bible and communicating with God. 　When we spend time with God, we worry less. Our Bible verses today remind us not to worry about things we need in life. Instead, we need to remember that God loves us and will always take care of us. 　Focus on God and His Word, and don’t let things in the world distract you. —TS “What you should want most is God’s kingdom and doing what he wants you to do. Then he will give you all these other things you need. Don’t worry about tomorrow. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Tomorrow will have its own worries.” Matthew 6:33-34 PRAYER: Father, I want to focus on You today. I want to serve You better every day. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
