对今日诗句的想法
作为父母,我所面临的最艰难的挑战之一就是明白我无法始终保护我的孩子免受一些伤害和心痛。有些痛苦是必要的,可以帮助他们成长和成熟。还有一些痛苦是活在一个堕落世界必然的结果。但是,我们可以满心相信,我们若让他们认识主,他们若献上生命遵行他的旨意,没有任何事物能够夺走主的终极得胜、看护,以及与我们和他的团聚。既知道我们何等爱孩子,想想父何等地爱我们,渴望将我们带回他那满有平安的家中。在我们回天家之前,知道他在守护我们和我们所爱的,从今时直到永远,这是何等令人欣慰!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
One of my most complex challenges as a parent is knowing that I can't ultimately protect my children from some hurts and heartbreaks. Some of that pain is necessary to help them mature and grow. Some of it is just the agonizing result of living in a fallen world. However, we can be fully confident that if we share the Lord with them and they give their lives to his will, nothing can steal them from his ultimate victory, care, and reunion with him and with us. Knowing how we love them, imagine how much the Father loves us and longs to bring us to that place of safety in his house! Until we get home, isn't it comforting to know that he is watching over us and those we love, now and forever?
我的祷告
守护并等候我们的父,我也盼望着我们第一次面对面的见面。哦,父啊,我知道你在看护我并守护我,但有时候我想见到你,难以等到回到永恒的家中与你同在之时才受安慰。在那之前,我晓得你在我一切的道路上都守护着我。为着我将来那一天要得到的一切,我感谢你。奉耶稣的名,阿门!
My Prayer...
O, Father, I know you see and watch over me, but sometimes I miss seeing you and find it hard to wait to be comforted and blessed in your presence and my eternal home. Watching and waiting, Father, I look forward to our first face-to-face meeting. Until then, I recognize your watching care over all of my ways, and thank you now for everything I will one day receive. In Jesus' name. Amen.
