禱告生活

禱告生活
聖經閱讀： 以弗所書6:18 現代中譯本|合和本
2016年10月5日(三)

　我先生負責處理家裡的財務，他要付帳單、要讓銀行存款收支平衡，有一次我問他，處理財務最困難的是什麼？他說最困難的部份是要確定每天處理好每一件事，如果進度落後，就很難趕上。
禱告是我們跟上帝的溝通方式，所以天天禱告是一件重要的事，但是有時候我們太忙而沒有像平常一樣好好禱告，當我疏忽了每天要禱告時，我的生活就會遇到困難，會認為可以靠自己來做事而不用倚靠上帝。
在今天的經文閱讀中，保羅給了我們很好的、關於禱告的忠告。我們可以自由地在任何地方、任何時間禱告，我們可以告訴上帝我們的感受並向祂祈求我們的需要，但是，我們不可放棄禱告，禱告應該是我們生活中一個很重要的部份。
今天不要忽視了你的禱告生活，要花時間跟天上的父親說話！ —ECW

「上主悅納義人的禱告；他厭惡邪惡人的祭物。」 箴言15:8

禱告：天父，謝謝祢讓我可以天天對祢說話。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

(尤榮輝譯)

Prayer Life
Bible Reading: Ephesians 6:18
Wednesday, October 5, 2016

　My husband takes care of the finances in our family. He pays the bills and balances our checkbook. One time I asked him what was the hardest part of taking care of our finances. He said that the hardest part is making sure that he takes care of things every day. If he gets behind, it is hard to catch up.
Prayer is the way that we communicate with God. So it is important that we pray every day. But sometimes we get busy and we don't pray as often as we should. When I neglect to pray every day, my life suffers. I begin to think that I can do things by myself and I don’t need to depend on God.
In our Bible verse for today, Paul gives us good advice about prayer. We have the freedom to pray anywhere or anytime. We can tell God how we feel and ask Him for what we need. But, we should not give up praying. Prayer should be a very important part of our day.
Don’t neglect your prayer life today. Spend some time talking with your Heavenly Father! —ECW

“The Lord hates the offerings of the wicked, but he is happy to hear the prayers of those who live right.” Proverbs 15:8

PRAYER: Father, thank You that I can talk to You every day. In Jesus' name. Amen.
