对今日诗句的想法
神照着自己的形象造人，不仅仅是男人，女人也是如此，男女都是照着神的形象所造的！不可思议的是，不单单在人违背神之前是如此，当神将我们造于母腹时(诗篇139:13-16)，他就照着自己的形象造了我们(创世记9:6)。因为我们对于神是宝贵的；因为我们反映了造物主的一些品质，所以每个人都应受到重视。没有人应受诽谤、蔑视或咒诅(雅各书3:9-12)。所有人都是珍贵的，不仅对于神是如此，我们对于彼此也应如此。因为在某些特别的方式上，人类反映了神的形象。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We were made in God's image. Not just the man, the male. Not just the woman, the female. Both males and females are made in God's image! They are each precious to God. Incredibly, this is not just true before the Fall before sin entered the world and made a mess of everything. When God made us and knew us in the womb of our birth mother (Psalm 139:13-16), he made us in his image (Genesis 9:6). Because people are precious to God because we each reflect something of the character of our Creator, each person is to be valued. None is to be denigrated, belittled, or cursed (James 3:9-12). People are precious, not only to God but also to us because, in some special way, each of us reflects the multifaceted nature and image of God.
我的祷告
全能的造物主啊，请帮助我重视今天所遇到的每一个人，因我清楚地认识到，每个个体都是你所造的，反映你的品格和特质。与此同时，请祝福我属灵的成长，我愿顺服你的圣灵，让你改变我，使我一天比一天都更像你！奉主耶稣基督圣名祈求，阿们。
My Prayer...
Almighty Creator, please help me value each person I meet today and each day going forward. I want to value them because I am consciously aware that you have individually and uniquely made each of them to reflect your character and nature. At the same time, bless me with spiritual growth as I consciously submit myself to your Spirit as you transform me to be more like you each day (2 Corinthians 3:18). In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
