对今日诗句的想法

彻底的权力腐败......让我们拥有不该拥有的......让我们忘记初衷......让我们忽视了压迫的呼声。彻底的权力腐败,唯有上帝才拥有绝对的主权!我们渴望拥有它就像亚当和夏娃的罪一样 — 这是欲望想成为神。但真正的权力,为人所接受的完全的主权,是用来祝福那残破的、高举那不幸的、赦免人的罪过,并扶助那些无助的人们。

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Absolute power corrupts completely by allowing us to have what we shouldn't, enabling us to forget where we came from, and leading us to ignore the cries of the oppressed. Absolute power corrupts because only God can handle full power and control! Our desire to have it is like Adam and Eve's sin- the lust to be God. True power, acceptable to the One with true absolute power, is used to bless the broken, lift the unfortunate, forgive the guilty, and assist the powerless. How do we know? God does those kinds of things!

我的祷告

全能的无与伦比的上帝,我不想把我的时间浪费在与人一争高下上。请给我的恩典、能力及机会去祝福别人 — 这样做代表我觉得自己比较优秀或高人一等,而是让别人蒙受祝福,并将赞美归给你!奉耶稣的名祷告。阿们。

My Prayer...

Almighty and incomparable God, I don't want to spend my time positioning myself to have power over others. Please give me the grace, the ability, and the opportunity to bless others — not so I will feel superior or essential, but so that they will be blessed and you will be honored and praised. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
