对今日诗句的想法
神不仅寻求我们,他希望与我们建立亲密关系 — 也就是说,他渴望我们寻求他,寻求对他来说很重要的东西。当我们坚持做好的事工来觅荣耀和荣誉的时候,我们会追寻永恒而不是暂时的东西。他喜出望外地给我们带来他总是为我们设计好的:与神的永生。换句话说,寻求者,神也总是在寻找那些寻求他子民!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
God not only seeks after us, but he also desires a relationship with us — he longs for us to seek after him and after matters that are important to him. When we persistently seek his glory by doing good deeds and seek eternal values rather than temporal things, he is overjoyed to give us what he has always designed for us: eternal life with him and influence on others for good. In other words, the seeking God is always looking for those seeking him!
我的祷告
阿爸天父,谢谢你在当我迷失和罪恶的时候还爱我。我感谢你不只爱我,而且还送耶稣来找寻我。谢谢你的正义,因在耶稣里找到你的恩典。我承认,我有时因一些其实并不是很重要的事情而心烦意乱。请保佑我寻求顺从的心和集中追求对永恒的东西的意愿。当我以寻求你的荣耀和荣誉而引导我的生活的时候,你更伟大地以永恒的生命的愿望祝福我,这多么令人欣慰。以耶稣的珍贵的名祷告。阿门。
My Prayer...
Abba Father, thank you for loving me when I was lost and sinned. Thank you for not just loving me but also seeking me by sending Jesus. Thank you for your justice that you met with your grace in your Son Jesus. I confess that I sometimes get distracted and upset with things that don't matter very much. Please bless me as I seek to discipline my heart and focus my desires on eternal things as I seek your glory and honor in how I conduct my life. I find it reassuring, Father, that your desire to bless me with eternal life is still even greater than my pursuit of it. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
