对今日诗句的想法
施洗约翰的“公式”寥寥数语，你的呢？使徒保罗告诉加拉太人他们所需要的“公式”(加拉太书4:19)；告诉歌罗西人，这就是他竭尽全力在基督徒生命中所做的(歌罗西书1:28-29)；告诉哥林多人，这就是圣灵在他们生命中所做的(哥林多后书3:18)。难道你不认为这也是你生命的真正“公式”吗？
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
This ultimate formula for greatness did not take many words for John the Baptist to articulate. What's your formula? Paul told the Galatians that they needed a similar approach to greatness: Christ must be formed in them (Galatians 4:19). He told the Colossians that he expended every ounce of energy God supplied to have them become mature in their complete and perfect in their conformity to Jesus (Colossians 1:28-29). Paul told the Corinthians the Spirit was transforming them to become like Jesus with ever-increasing likeness as they pursued Jesus as Lord (2 Corinthians 3:18). Most importantly, Jesus the goal of any of his faithful followers, his disciples, should be to become like him, their Teacher and Lord (Luke 6:40). So, don't you think that maybe this is the essential formula for your life? Jesus must become greater in us as what we selfishly want becomes less!
我的祷告
慈爱的天父啊，愿主耶稣越来越充满我的内心和我的整个生命，愿我的“旧我”渐渐消失。奉主耶稣之名，阿们！
My Prayer...
Dear Father in heaven, in my heart, and in my life, may Jesus become more significant and I become less because I know less of me, and more of Jesus living through me will be far more than I could ever be without him! In Jesus' name, I ask this. Amen.
