对今日诗句的想法
约书亚接替摩西时神对他所说的这番话，同样适用于我们。现在就抽出时间，大声朗读诗篇139篇，神与我们同在的应许，赐给每一个真诚呼求他的人。聆听主耶稣在马太福音28:18-20中的话语，主应许门徒将“永远与他们同在，直到世界的末了”。记住希伯来书13:5所记载旧约祝福中神的应许，“我总不撇下你，也不丢弃你”。让我们刚强，我们的神、天父、牧人总在我们身边。即使看似并非如此，然而不论我们往哪里去，神的同在总伴随着我们。我们决非孤单一人，也无需害怕，即使死亡也无法使我们与神的爱隔绝(参见罗马书8:35-39)。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
While these words were spoken to Joshua when he took over for Moses, they are also applicable to us. Take a moment and read Psalm 139 out loud and see that God's promise to be with us is for all who truly call upon him. Listen to Jesus' words in Matthew 28:18-20, as he promises his disciples to "be with them always, even to the close of the age." Remember God's promise, reiterated from an Old Testament blessing in Hebrews 13:5, "Never will I leave you, never will I desert you!" Let's be strong; our God, our Father, our Shepherd is always near, even if it doesn't seem so. We cannot go anywhere without his presence being near us and in us. We are not alone. We don't have to be afraid. In fact, not even death can separate us from his love (see Romans 8:35-39).
我的祷告
慈爱的天父啊，不仅是你的应许与同在，更在我的感知上，愿你亲近我们。当我面对惊奇的机遇时，我需要知道你在我身边。当我面对生命中严厉的挑战时，我需要信靠你的帮助与坚实的慈爱。我相信你永恒的慈爱。奉主耶稣之名祈求，阿们！
My Prayer...
Be near, dear Father, not only in your promise and not only with your presence, but also in my awareness. I need to know you are near when I respond to the incredible opportunities before me. I need to be confident in your help and sustaining love as I face the rigorous challenges in my life. I trust in your unfailing love. In Jesus' name. Amen.
