对今日诗句的想法
悖逆所产生的后果往往就是对其的惩罚。悖逆最终会导致恶果,罪恶往往就是对其最糟的惩罚。面对如此良善的神,正如我们昨天所谈及的,我们又怎能选择其它的道路而离弃神呢?短期内,也许神的道路是更艰难的,然而从长远来看,没有比这更好的选择了!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Sometimes, the natural consequence of rebellion is its own justice. God gives us up to what we want and pursue, letting us reap the consequences (Romans 1:24). Human rebellion against God ultimately produces evil fruit. Wickedness is often its own worst punishment. In the face of such the generous God we focused upon yesterday, how could we choose to follow any other path but his? It may seem harder to faithfully follow God and his wisdom in the short run, but there is simply no option that compares honoring God in the long run!
我的祷告
公正、怜悯的父啊,感谢你以恩典拯救了我!感谢你应许了以恩典、怜悯和公正来审判世界。在你那里,也只有在你那里,我能辨明是非与公平。父啊,我呼求你,愿你以公正和救赎来拯救受欺压、嘲笑和迫害的人们!奉主耶稣基督圣名祈求,阿们。
My Prayer...
Father of justice and mercy, thank you for saving me by your grace. Thank you for promising to judge the world with grace, mercy, and justice. In you, and you alone, do I find any sense of what is right and fair. I cry out to you, O God, for justice and deliverance for your people who are oppressed, ridiculed, and persecuted. I also plead for repentance and the turn to Jesus for those who do not yet know him as Lord and Savior. In his name, I pray. Amen.
