对今日诗句的想法
上帝如何帮助我们明白他的旨意？显然，上帝给了我们圣经以及圣灵帮助我们明白圣经。还有什么细微且不确定的方式？我们大多数人都有过 “神圣的巧合集群”（事件因祈祷而发生）：在恰当的时候朋友来电或来信; 我们读到一篇文章或听的布道正好是我们关心的或者困惑的; 唱的几首圣歌在我们正需要主的引导的地方说服了我们; 或者我们只是觉得就在是非辨别困难的境地，感到有人帮了我们一把。上帝是认真的，他说如果我们没有怀疑地祈求智慧，他就给我们智慧。如果我们真的去寻他，我们会找到他。他以各种奇妙的方式发出雷声！
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
How does God help us know his will? Clearly, God has given us the Scriptures and the Holy Spirit to help us understand those Scriptures. What about more subtle and less defined ways? Most of us have had a "cluster of divine coincidences" — what I call "Godincedences." Many of us have had several events in close proximity to prayer asking for the Spirit's help and guidance. A friend calls or writes at just the right time; we read an article or hear a sermon that has a comment directed at just the area of our concern or confusion; several songs in worship convict us in the area we are seeking the Lord's guidance; or, we simply feel a pull on our conscience that helps us discern right from wrong in a difficult situation. God really means it when he says that if we pray for wisdom without doubting, he will give it to us (James 1:5-6) and that if we truly seek him, we will find him (Matthew 7:7-8). His voice does thunder and sometimes whispers in marvelous ways!
我的祷告
神圣的上帝，请帮我辨别在我生命中的几个重要问题。我不想以我有限的人类智慧而做决定。请以你的圣灵引导我去你要我去的方向，用我给你带来荣耀和赞美。谢谢你足以关心我的生活，而让我更清晰地看见你的旨意。以耶稣的名祷告。阿门。
My Prayer...
Holy God, please help me discern your will about several important matters in my life. I don't want to make decisions based on my limited human wisdom. Please lead me by your Spirit in the direction you want me to follow and empower me to go there confidently. Thank you for caring about my life enough to show me your way more clearly — whether in thundering or whispering, I await your voice. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
