对今日诗句的想法
当我们奉主耶稣之名受洗，信靠他为我们的救主时，我们向着罪死去——我们向着死亡死去，且因着我们对主耶稣的信心、因着神的大能，我们越过死亡进入生命(约翰福音5:24;歌罗西书2:12)。我们的生命与主联合，主荣耀的未来也成为我们的未来(歌罗西书3:1-4)。我们不在律法以下，而在恩典之下。让我们以热情、以渴望成为圣洁的热忱回应神所赐的恩典。圣灵改变我们，使我们成为主耶稣的样式(哥林多后书3:18)。让我们向着圣灵改变我们的工作全然敞开。我们是蒙受恩典的儿女，不受罪的捆绑，而是靠着神的恩典得自由，成为神造我们成为的样式(以弗所书2:1-10)。罪必不能作我们的主！
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
As we called on Jesus name in baptism and trusted him to be our Savior, we died to sin. In this death, we die to dying and pass from death to life because of our faith in Jesus and in God's power (John 5:24; Col. 2:12). Our life is joined to Jesus, and his glorious future becomes our own (Col. 3:1-4). We are not under law, but grace. Let's respond to the gift of grace with passion and with zeal to be holy. Let's open ourselves to the transforming work of the Holy Spirit, who changes us to be like Jesus (2 Cor. 3:18). We are grace-children. We are not in bondage to sin, but liberated by grace to be all that God has made us to be — his craftmanship (Eph. 2:1-10). Sin will not be our master!
我的祷告
慈爱的耶和华阿爸父神，愿你净化我的心灵，愿你更新我的心灵，使其向着那些曾经缠绕我的罪死去，向着你的恩典而活。奉主耶稣之名祈求，阿们！
My Prayer...
Purify my heart, dear Lord and Father, and make it new and alive to your grace and dead to the sin that once entangled me. In Jesus' name. Amen.
