对今日诗句的想法
当你的教会会圣经学习小组有拜访者时，你个人有多么热情地接待他们呢？你上一次邀请初到教会的人一同用餐或是加入基督徒朋友们的活动是什么时候呢？有些人有好客的恩赐，然而我们所有人都必须热情敞开，迎接加入基督徒聚会敬拜的陌生人。为什么不定下决心每周接待、迎接一位初到教会的朋友呢？在一个冷漠的世界，我们能够对那些寻求主耶稣及其百姓庇护与恩典的人们产生巨大的影响。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
What do you you do to welcome new neighbors into your neighborhood or apartment complex? How warmly do you personally welcome visitors at your church or in your Bible study group? When was the last time you invited someone new in your congregation over for dinner or included them in a gathering of your Christian friends? While some have the gift of hospitality, all of us need to be warm and open to folks we don't know that join us for Christian worship and fellowship. Why not make a commitment to meet and welcome one new person at church each week. In a cold impersonal world, we can make a huge difference in the lives of those seeking the shelter and grace of Jesus and his people.
我的祷告
天父啊，愿你帮助我，帮助我的教会，使我们更加敞开接待那些初到教会或是拜访教会的人们。请使用我们去分享你的恩典，为他们提供基督徒的大家庭。奉主耶稣之名祈求，阿们！
My Prayer...
Father, please help me, and please help my congregation, be more open and welcoming to people who are new and who are visiting. Please use us to share your grace and provide them a Christian home. In Jesus' name. Amen.
