对今日诗句的想法
当你还年轻的时候，你怎么命令别人对你尊重？不是的！你通过在生活中体现自己的性格和品质，赢得别人对你的尊重。那些年长些的人必须识别和验证出有性格和信仰的年轻基督徒。那些年轻人需要让自己生活有不能质疑的品格。性格，道德，信仰，慈爱是基督教的本质属性，无论他或她的年龄多大。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
How do you command the respect of others when you are young? You don't! You earn that respect by the character and quality of your life. Those of us who are older must recognize and validate younger Christians who are people of character and faith. We need to encourage them and fuel their desires to honor the Lord. Those of us who are younger need to live a life of character that cannot be questioned — you won't be perfect, but you can be passionate about living for Jesus. Character, morality, faith, and loving-kindness are essential attributes for us as disciples of Jesus, no matter our age.
我的祷告
神圣的上帝，我对那些在我们的教会家庭里年轻的，尽管抵着他们的同龄人不这么做的的压力，但还是代表你的性格和过着敬虔的生活的基督徒，感谢你。爸爸，我也为那些在信仰里的年长的，那些给我机会施展我的才华，影响了并鼓励我心灵成长的人，感谢你。请帮助我们的教会在不同的年龄段，为你的荣耀，为你的王国的壮大，保持团结的使命和目的。以耶稣的名祷告。阿门。
My Prayer...
Holy God, we thank you for those in our church family who are young, stand for your character, and live godly lives despite pressure from their peers to do otherwise. Father, I also thank you for those older in the faith, who have given us a chance to use our gifts, and who have influenced and encouraged us in our spiritual growth. Please help us keep our church united in mission and purpose across the different age groups, to your glory and for the growth of your Kingdom. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
