对今日诗句的想法
“教年长的男子？”“向年轻人学习？”埋在这节经文里的是一个深刻的道理和抱以超越世代的尊重态度。对于我们中的一些来自首次在人类历史上五代人同教会的人们，保罗的话对我们今天来说充满更多意义。如果改革和更新要可持续的发展的话，这些年轻人需要有品格的领导人和导师。这些老年人需要认识到，神经常使用年轻人的声音说出自己的真话，带来更新。在我们寻求上帝的时代我们需要爱，尊重，并相互祈求！
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
"Teach older men? I expect some older folks are thinking, "I'm supposed to learn about life from younger folks? You've gotta be kidding me!" Nevertheless, Paul places in this message a profound understanding and respect that transcends generational differences. We can learn God's truth from fresh voices inspired by the Holy Spirit! For some of us who share our local churches with five generations of people for the first time in human history, Paul's challenging words mean even more to us today than when he shared them with a young servant of God named Titus. Younger people need leaders and mentors who are people of character if transformation and renewal are to be sustainable for them. Yet those who are older need to realize that God often uses the voices of the young to speak his truth and bring renewal when his people become lethargic, set in their ways, and predictable. We must love, respect, and pray for each other as we seek to be God's people in our time, and this means listening to each other to hear the voice of God!
我的祷告
神啊，在你的家里请给我们的智慧，耐心和尊重，这样我们可以珍惜每一个人，去倾听无年龄界限的有品格和成熟的声音，并开放性的听从无论你用谁来说出来的你的真理。以耶稣的名祷告。阿门。
My Prayer...
O God, please give us wisdom, patience, and respect. As your family, we need your help to value each person, listen to people of character and maturity regardless of age, and open our hearts to your truth no matter who you use to speak it. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
