大小事都管的人

大小事都管的人
聖經閱讀：箴言16:1-9 現代中譯本|合和本
2016年2月10日(三)

　也許你有認識一些企圖掌控生命中所有事情的人，或許是一位努力管理計劃每一個部分的同事，或許是一位企圖掌控你的人生的家人。這些人留意每一個細節，努力使每個細節都按照他們的計劃進行，我們稱這些人是「大小事都管的人」。
今天箴言中的經文提醒我們，就算我們努力要掌控生命中的所有事情，上帝仍然是那位真正的掌權者，第9節說：「策劃在人；但上主導引你的腳步」。
上帝有能力掌管我們所有的計劃，但是祂仍然希望我們能為自己的態度負責。今天經文的作者提到了幾個我們應該有的正確態度：謙卑、愛人、尊重人，以及討上帝喜悅。
不要作自己生命「大小事都管的人」，要讓上帝掌權。祂愛你，並且永遠知道什麼是對你最好的。 —DVH*

「把所籌劃的事交託上主，你就能夠成功。」 箴言16:3

禱告：親愛的上帝，我願謙卑地將生命完全交給祢掌管。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

(林煜茹譯)

Micromanager
Bible Reading: Proverbs 16:1-9
Wednesday, February 10, 2016

　Maybe you know a person who tries to have control over everything in their life. Maybe it is a co-worker who tries to manage every part of a project. Maybe it is a family member who tries to control your life. These people pay attention to every detail and try to make it fit their plan. We call these people micromanagers.
Our verses today from Proverbs remind us that even if we try to control everything in our lives, God is still the one who is really in control. Verse 9 says, “People can plan what they want to do, but it is the Lord who guides their steps.”
God has power over all our plans, but He still expects us to be responsible for our attitudes. In our verses the writer mentions several good attitudes that we should have: being humble, showing love and respect, and pleasing God.
Don't be a micromanager of your life. Let God take control. He loves you and always knows what is best for you. —DVH*

“Turn to the Lord for help in everything you do, and you will be successful.” Proverbs 16:3

PRAYER: Dear God, I want to be humble and give You complete control of my life. In Jesus' name. Amen.
