对今日诗句的想法
难道你不喜爱礼物吗?尤其是真心无条件给予的礼物,我们要做的就是收下礼物。我们所得到的最贵重的礼物是神所恩赐的,跟我们自己的努力毫无关系。我们并没有赚取、配得或是购买了这些恩赐。神藉着自我牺牲的救赎,使我们知道救恩是出于神的慈爱,无人可以自夸。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Don't you love gifts! Especially when they're truly given, with no strings attached, all we have to do is receive them. The greatest gift we've ever received has nothing to do with our efforts. It is a gift from God. We didn't earn it, deserve it, or purchase it. God gave it through his sacrificial gift so our salvation would not be our boast, but his kindness.
我的祷告
圣洁的神啊,你赐下耶稣,背负了我的罪债,我对此感激不尽。愿我永不滥用你的恩典或轻忽你恩赐的代价。天父,我愿活在信心当中,深知我的救恩是出于你的恩典,而不是我的过错。因着你如此丰富的恩赐,今天我愿为你而活,满溢着领受如此伟大恩赐而来的喜乐。主耶稣——我的盼望与恩典的泉源,我奉你的名求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Holy God, I can never thank you enough for sending Jesus and paying the debt for my sin. May I never presume on your grace or take the cost of your gift lightly. At the same time, Father, I want to live confidently, knowing that my salvation is not dependent on my mistakes but upon your grace. Because of such a lavish gift, I want to live for you today in a way that reflects the joy I have at receiving such an awesome gift. In the name of Jesus, my source of hope and grace, I pray. Amen.
