世界教我們很多關於愛的事情，但世界教的愛其實是自私的愛，這種愛完全只在乎我們本身的感受，然而這不是真正的愛。真正的愛不會讓你專注在自己和自身的感受上，當你是真心愛人時，你會專注於別人和他們的感受。「愛是不嫉妒」的意思是，當別人擁有好東西時，我們不會不開心，這句話也表示我們願意相信別人。當我們愛人時，我們不會誇耀自己所成就的事，也不會認為自己比別人強。 「愛是不作害羞的事，不求自己的益處」，這句話的意思是說我們應該尊重別人，應該考慮到別人的需要，而不考慮自己的需要。如果我們有真正的愛，在別人遇到患難時，我們就不會快樂，我們反而希望他們都遇到好事。 今天要確保自己不會嫉妒、粗魯無禮或自私。 —MK 「你們要仁慈，正像你們的天父是仁慈的。」 路加福音6:36
禱告：天父，求祢幫助我成為無私的人，並且幫助我真心愛人。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

What Love Isn't
Bible Reading: 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

The world teaches many things about love. But the kind of love that the world teaches is really selfishness. This kind of love depends completely on our own feelings. But that is not real love. Real love does not make you focus on yourself and your feelings. When you truly love, you focus on other people and their feelings. “Love is not jealous” means that we do not become upset when someone else has something good. It also means we are willing to trust people. When we love someone, we will not boast about the things we have done. And we will not think we are better than other people. “Love is not rude, love is not selfish” means we should show respect for other people. We should think about other people's needs and not our own. If we have true love, we will not be happy when bad things happen to people. Instead we will want good things to happen to them. Make sure that you are not being jealous, rude or selfish today. —MK “Give love and mercy the same as your Father gives love and mercy.” Luke 6:36
PRAYER: Lord, please help me to be unselfish. And help me to have true love for others. In Jesus' name. Amen. |
