对今日诗句的想法
亲爱的耶稣的朋友,对你周围的没有成为神要他们成为的人有耐心 — 记住我们还不是神要我们成为的人。在“承受”他们失败的过程中,你可能就发现其他人对你的失败更有耐心,更感谢你的信实。当然,我们耐心的目的不是为了造福自己。相反,我们这样做是为了祝福别人,知道许多在基督里的弟兄姊妹在坚持他们的信仰,坚信希望和爱的同时,他们的信仰是很薄弱的。让我们永远不让他们离开耶稣,不让自己成为导致他们跌倒的原因!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Dear friend of Jesus, have patience with those around you who are not yet what God intends for them to be — remembering that you are not yet all that God intends for you to be. As you "bear with" their "failings", you may find that others are patient with your failings and are more thankful for your faithfulness than you realize. Of course, the goal of being patient isn't to benefit ourselves. Instead, we do it to bless others, knowing that many of our brothers and sisters in Christ are hanging on to their faith, hope, and love by the thinnest of threads. Let's never let them go and never cause them to stumble!
我的祷告
温柔的牧羊人,给我更多的耐心对待那些处于挣扎境地,需要你的力量和我的鼓励的人。请原谅,我没有像你那样注意到他们的挣扎。帮我向他们展示当你在你的圣洁里完善他们时是如何的耐心。谢谢你,主啊,当我努力成为恩典里的兄弟姊妹的一个祝福时你对我的帮助。以耶稣的名祷告。阿门。
My Prayer...
Tender Shepherd, give me more patience with those struggling and who need your strength and my encouragement. Forgive me for not noticing their struggles the way that you do. Help me show them how patient you are as you perfect them in your holiness. Thank you, O Lord, for your help in this area of my heart as I seek to bless my brothers and sisters with grace. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
