对今日诗句的想法
认为神对世人的爱仅从主耶稣和大使命开始,那就错了。还记得约拿拯救以色列仇敌尼尼微城的祷告吗?还记得外邦人路得成为大卫王和主耶稣弥赛亚家谱中一员的美好故事吗?神爱世人,希望世人都来分享他的恩典。作为基督徒,我们是神的光和盐。我们在世间感染世人,呼唤他们回到那真正爱他们的天父身边。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
It is wrong to think God's love for the nations began only with Jesus and the Great Commission. Remember Jonah's preaching to save Israel's great enemy, Nineveh? Remember the precious story of Ruth, a foreigner grafted into the lineage of King David and ultimately Jesus the Messiah? God loves all people and wants them to come to share in his grace. As Christians, we are his salt and light. We are here to touch all the peoples of the world and beckon them to come back to the one Father who truly loves them.
我的祷告
圣洁的神啊,愿你在我心中激发更大的热情向世人分享你的爱。愿我的生命、金钱和关心都更多地用于你在世上的工作。愿你祝福那些在非本土文化中传播主耶稣福音的努力付出。奉主耶稣之名祈求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Holy God, stir in my heart a greater passion to share your love with the world. May my life, my money, and my concern be used to do more of your work throughout the world. Please bless the efforts of all those who share the Gospel of Jesus in a culture other than their own. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
