詩篇119 (9)
聖經閱讀：詩篇119:65-72現代中譯本|合和本
2016年10月27日(四)

讀大學時我修了一門數學課，有時候在努力解題時，我感覺好像頭就要爆炸了，我想這些數學題目是我遇過最糟糕的事。
但是過去的幾年中，我曾經歷過許多壞事，自從先生去世之後，我必須扛起照顧孩子的責任並處理自己的健康問題，我必須隨時做重大的決定。
在今天閱讀的經文中，我們學到如何處理重大的決定。首先要做的事就是懇求上帝的幫助和智慧──「求你賜給我智慧和知識」（第66a節），然後我們一定要遵行上帝的話語──「但現在我遵守你的話」（第67b節）。最後，我們要求上帝帶領我們──「求你把你的誡命教導我」（第68b節）。
今天你要做重大的決定嗎？告訴上帝你要做什麼決定並求祂賜給你智慧和力量。 —BH

「我一心遵守你的訓誡。」 詩篇119:69b

禱告：主啊，求祢在我生命中做重大決定時幫助我。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

(李信儀譯)

Psalm 119 (9)
Bible Reading: Psalm 119:65-72
Thursday, October 27, 2016

When I was in college, I took a math class. Sometimes when I tried to solve a math problem, I felt like my head would explode. I thought that those math problems were the worst things I would ever experience.
But during the past few years, I have experienced many bad things. Since my husband died, I have had the responsibility of taking care of my sons and dealing with my own health problems. I have to make important decisions all the time.
In our Bible Reading today, we learn how we should handle important decisions. The first thing we should do is ask God for His help and wisdom — “Give me the knowledge to make wise decisions” (verse 66a). Then we need to make sure we are obeying God's Word — “But now I carefully obey everything you say” (verse 67b). Finally, we need to ask God to guide us — “Teach me your laws” (verse 68b).
Do you have important decisions to make today? Talk to God about these decisions and ask Him to give you wisdom and strength. —BH

“But I keep obeying your instructions with all my heart.” Psalm 119:69b

PRAYER: Lord, help me as I make important decisions in my life. In Jesus' name. Amen.
