对今日诗句的想法
这件正确的事情,有时却很难做到。背后说错待我们之人的闲话却容易得多,或是在小组祷告中提到他们需要帮助,或是含沙射影地谈论他们。然而,当我们因主内弟兄姐妹的行为而受到伤害时,只有一个正确的处理方式!面对那个错待你的弟兄或姐妹,使损伤维持在你们两人之间,努力和好。这是神的愿望,也当是我们作为神儿女的目标。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The right thing is so hard to do sometimes. It seems so much easier to gossip about someone who has wronged us, or to mention them in a group prayer as needing help, or to pass around an innuendo when talking about struggling Christians. But, only one thing is the right thing when we have been wounded by the action of another brother or sister in Christ! Go to the person who has wronged you, try to keep the damage contained to just the two of you, and work on being reconciled. This is God's desire, and should be our goal as his children.
我的祷告
全能的耶和华神啊,愿你饶恕我愚昧自私的行为。愿你赐予我勇气,使我能够以慈爱去安慰那些错待我的人。若我无法实现和好,愿你圣灵的大能帮助我去饶恕,正如你饶恕了我一样。因着主耶稣为我的罪受膏牺牲,奉主耶稣之名祈求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Lord God Almighty, forgive my foolish and selfish ways. Give me courage to lovingly confront those who have sinned against me, but if I cannot bring reconciliation, help me through the power of your Holy Spirit to forgive as you have forgiven me. In Jesus' name, and because of his atoning sacrifice for sin I pray. Amen.
