对今日诗句的想法
主耶稣在十字架上所提及这绝望的诗句，更是希望与信心的诗句。神对以色列民的信实，是对我们不住的提醒——我们可以依靠神的拯救。在我们思虑的时候，神的回答似乎迟缓，但神以往的作为提醒我们，他会回应我们的祷告，在他的时间施行拯救并祝福他的百姓。在最可怕的梦魇中，我们能够提醒自己，神是信实的，他在意我们绝望的呼求、哀哭、悲伤、痛苦与惧怕。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
This Psalm of despair, referred to by Jesus from the Cross, is also a Psalm of hope and faith. The history of God's faithfulness with his people Israel is an ongoing reminder that we can trust him to deliver us. While in our human reckoning of time God's answer may be slow in coming, his track record in history reminds us that he will answer, deliver, and bless his people in his time. In our worst of nightmares, we can be reminded that God is faithful and is attentive to our cries of despair, lament, grief, agony, and fear.
我的祷告
慈爱的天父啊，愿你祝福所有身处困境的百姓。愿你的圣灵加添他们力量，并且祝福他们，使他们的绝境得以改善。愿你垂听你百姓的呼求，立刻保护他们、保守他们并为他们伸冤。奉主耶稣之名祈求，阿们！
My Prayer...
I ask, dear Father, that you bless your people everywhere who find themselves in difficult situations. Empower them with your Spirit and bless them with a change for the better in their dire situation. Please hear the cries of your people and act swiftly for their protection, preservation, and vindication. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
