对今日诗句的想法
当我们心怀恶意的时候,就会装模作样摆出各种“架势”,好让人们摸不透我们的真实面目。但是,如果正义是我们的宗旨,我们就会以持守诚实为念。就算我们搞砸了,也会实话实说,要求宽恕,从错误中学习。我们不会隐瞒事实。我们知道,纵使我们千错万错,上帝不会错。他还是会在我们身上做工!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
When we harbor wickedness in our hearts, there are all sorts of "fronts" we have to keep up so people won't know the truth about us. But if righteousness is our aim, we'll try to live up to that goal with honesty. When we blow it — we stumble, sin, and rebel — we'll be honest and penitent. We won't put up a facade and pretend we didn't sin or try to rationalize our sin. We will ask for forgiveness, learning from our mistakes, sins, and weaknesses. We know that even though we're flawed, God is not finished with his work in us, so we will examine ourselves and press on toward Christ-likeness!
我的祷告
全能的上帝,感谢你一而再、再而三地赦免我。我为屡次企图对你、对人隐瞒我的罪而难过。我想过一个诚实,正直的生活,以我的行动、言语和善待别人来荣耀你。求你向我施恩,与日益增。奉耶稣的名祷告。阿们。
My Prayer...
Thank you, Almighty God, for the many times you have forgiven me. I'm sorry for the times I've tried to hide my sin from others and you. I want to live an honest, upright life, bringing glory to you in what I do, say, and treat others. Please grant me this grace with increasing measure day by day. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
