　「神蹟」就是透過上帝的能力才會發生的事。耶穌行了許多神蹟，祂醫治人、祂行走在水面上，耶穌說話平息暴風雨、祂讓死人復活。聖經跟我們談到許多耶穌在世上行的神蹟。
但你知道耶穌本身就是一個神蹟嗎？我們都知道，嬰兒的出生需要有父親和母親，但是耶穌並沒有肉身的父親，今天的經文告訴我們，是聖靈讓馬利亞懷了耶穌。耶穌的誕生真是一個神蹟！
耶穌的死也是一個神蹟。耶穌死在十字架上、被埋葬，但是在埋葬的三天之後，上帝讓祂復活了，這是所有神蹟中最奇妙的一個。因為耶穌活著，我們知道，當我們跟隨祂、遵從祂時，就可以擁有永恆的生命。 —MK

「這一切事的發生是要應驗主藉著先知所說的話：『有童女將懷孕生子，他的名字要叫以馬內利。』（『以馬內利』的意思就是『上帝與我們同在』。）」 馬太福音1:22-23

禱告：親愛的上帝，謝謝祢賜下耶穌的神蹟。奉主的名，阿們！

Jesus (2)
Bible Reading: Luke 1:26-38
Tuesday, August 23, 2016

　A miracle is an event that can only happen through God's power. Jesus did many miracles. He healed people. He walked on water. Jesus calmed a storm by speaking to it. He made dead people live again. The Bible tells us about many miracles that Jesus did while He was on earth.
But did you know that Jesus Himself is a miracle? We know that for a baby to be born, it needs a father and a mother. But Jesus did not have a human father. Our Bible verses today tell us that the Holy Spirit caused Jesus to be conceived in Mary. Truly Jesus' birth is a miracle!
Jesus' death is also a miracle. He died on the cross and was buried. But three days after He was buried, God made Him alive again. That was the most wonderful miracle of all. Because Jesus is alive, we know we can have eternal life if we follow and obey Him. —MK

“All this happened to make clear the full meaning of what the Lord said through the prophet: ‘The virgin will be pregnant and will give birth to a son. They will name him Immanuel.’ (Immanuel means ‘God with us.’)” Matthew 1:22-23

PRAYER: Dear God, thank You for the miracle of Jesus. In His name. Amen.
