对今日诗句的想法
保罗在罗马书6章中强调，顺服神的旨意并不表示我们就被诸多强硬的规条所操控，或者说要屈服于定立的律法。不！顺服我们满有恩典的神——是自由！使我们从罪和必死的捆绑中得释放；使我们脱离了罪及其后果的对我们思绪的纠缠；使我们能够自由成为神造我们成为的样式！
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
In Romans 6, Paul stresses that obeying God's will does not mean we are manipulated or put under arbitrary rules or laws. Obedience arising out of our grace-filled God is liberation through our faith in Jesus means freedom from our bondage to sin and the certainty of death, freedom from the haunting memories of that sin and its effects has on our hearts, and freedom to become the people we were created to be! This freedom is rooted in God's grace (Romans 6:14) and our participation with Jesus in his death, burial, and resurrection through faith in baptism (Romans 6:3-7). We are liberated through our obedient faith in Jesus!
我的祷告
天父啊，我明白顺服你的旨意是祝福而非束缚。我也知道你已经赐给了我能够保护我、拯救我的真理。可我有时竟然怀疑并且企图在别处寻求那单单从你而来的喜乐与满足，愿主饶恕！奉主耶稣基督名求，阿们！
My Prayer...
Heavenly Father, my head understands that obeying your will is a blessing, not a restriction. I know you have given me your truth to protect and save me. You demonstrated this truth in sending Jesus, so I want to wholeheartedly obey your will. Please forgive me for sometimes doubting and looking elsewhere for the joy and delight only you provide. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
