耶穌在乎

耶穌在乎

　格雷夫生活在二十世紀初，人們稱他為「陽光大使」，因為他對每個人都是如此仁慈。他寫了一本書和許多聖歌。
在一首聖歌中，格雷夫寫下了：「喔，是的，祂在乎，我知道祂在乎。我悲傷時祂的心也被觸動…我知道我的救贖者在乎。」，這些歌詞提醒我們：耶穌真的在乎我們。

閱讀經文告訴我們耶穌和祂的跟隨者非常忙碌並且需要休息，所以耶穌上了一艘船，帶著祂的跟隨者去到一個安靜的地方。但是許多人仍然跟著耶穌，當祂下了船，群眾正等著祂。
耶穌有生氣並且趕走這些人嗎？沒有！「耶穌…動了惻隱的心，因為他們好像沒有牧人的羊群。」（第34節後半）。耶穌非常在乎這些人，後來還將他們餵飽。

知道耶穌愛我們並且在乎我們，這真是奇妙。今天祂就會照顧你！—BH

「耶穌上岸，看見這一大群人，動了惻隱的心，治好他們的疾病。」 馬太福音14：14

禱告：上帝，為著耶穌愛我並且願意為我而死，我感謝祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Jesus Cares
Bible Reading: Mark 6:30-44
Thursday, February 4, 2016

　Frank E. Graeff lived in the early 1900s. He was known as the “sunshine minister” because he was so kind to everyone. He wrote many hymns and a book.
In one hymn, Mr. Graeff wrote these words, “Oh, yes He cares. I know He cares. His heart is touched with my grief...I know my Savior cares.” These words remind us that Jesus truly cares about us.

Our Bible Reading tells us that Jesus and His followers were very busy and needed to rest. So Jesus got into a boat and led his followers to a quiet place. But many people still followed Jesus. When he got out of the boat, there was a crowd of people waiting for Him.
Did Jesus get mad and send the people away? No! “He felt sorry for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd to care for them” (verse 34b). Jesus cared so much for these people that later He fed them.

It is wonderful to know that Jesus loves us and cares for us. He will take care of you today! —BH

“When Jesus got out of the boat, he saw a large crowd of people. He felt sorry for them, and he healed the ones who were sick.” Matthew 14:14

PRAYER: God, thank You that Jesus loves me and was willing to die for me. In His name. Amen.
