对今日诗句的想法
我记得Corrie ten Boom(《密室》作者,二战中因隐藏犹太人而和家人一起被关集中营)的话,“感谢神给我们跳蚤。” 跳蚤使德国士兵不进入她被关押的营房。这使她能够向其他人传福音,关心那些被迫害的人。她展现并传扬了主耶稣。即使在最糟糕的苦难中,神能够通过那些懂得生命目的是品格而非舒适的人们带去祝福。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
I remember the old Corrie ten Boom phrase, "Thank God for the fleas." The fleas kept the German soldiers out of the barracks in the Jewish concentration camp where she was imprisoned. This allowed her to minister and visit with those who were being persecuted. There she could show and share Jesus. Even in the worst of suffering, God can bring blessings through those who know that life's goal is character, not comfort.
我的祷告
伟大的神啊,我承认自己在困难、痛苦、苦难面前沮丧、失去耐心。愿你赐予我更多的热心和更愿意倾听的双耳,使我能够祝福那些需要你爱和恩典的人们。愿你赐予我力量,使我打破撒但设置在人们路上阻隔他们认识主耶稣的壁垒,使我在这艰难的过程中找到喜乐。奉救主之名祈求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Mighty God, I confess that I get impatient and frustrated with difficulty, pain, and suffering. Please give me more compassion and a better listening ear so that I may bless those who need your love and grace. Give me the strength to find joy in the difficulties of breaking through the barriers Satan places in the way to keep others from Jesus. In the Savior's name, I pray. Amen.
