对今日诗句的想法
虽然不知道别人怎样，但我很注重视觉。我由衷地欣赏神创造了如此多彩、纷繁多样的世界。我感谢神使用世上特殊的形象来提醒我们——神每日都供给我们，并有永恒的恩典。彩虹的美好并不仅仅在于它美丽的色彩或雨后清新的芳香，而是因为神应许了进入我们的生命、进入我们的世界！
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
I don't know about you, but I'm very visual. So, I appreciate how God made the world with all its varied colors, many species, and rich landscapes. I am thankful that our Father in Heaven used key images in our world to remind us of his daily provision and eternal grace. The beauty of a rainbow is not just in its beautiful colors or the aroma of fresh rain that often accompanies it but also in the covenant God made with Noah and our world after the Great Flood. The eternal and living God chose to link himself to our destiny and to involve himself in our world because of his love and grace. With the rainbow as his symbol, God promised not to destroy all life on our planet with a flood. Each of us is God's creation from the womb, so we are precious to him (Psalm 139:13-16). So, we commit to living morally and responsibly to God as we seek to honor him and his covenant represented by the rainbow (Genesis 9:4-7) and refuse to dishonor this covenant with wickedness (Genesis 9:22-24). God made the rainbow as a reminder that he loves us and calls us to honor him with our character and care for his creation.
我的祷告
全能的神啊，感谢你许下了如此美好的承诺！这本不是我们所有权期盼或要求的。感谢你将应许融入我们的日常生活中，使我能够记得你永恒、关切的看顾。奉主耶稣之名祈求，阿们！
My Prayer...
Almighty God, thank you for making your great promises when we had no right to expect them, much less to demand them. Thank you for attaching those promises to things in my everyday world that remind me of your constant and watchful care. In Jesus' name, I ask for strength and wisdom to respond to your grace in holiness and honor. Amen.
