对今日诗句的想法
在四福音书(马太福音、马可福音、路加福音、约翰福音)中,耶稣有许多称呼。请你留意这一处经文如何称呼耶稣:孩子、儿子、耶稣、为大、至高者的儿子、王、大卫的子孙、以色列(雅各)的王。主耶稣超乎一切的描述,他却甘愿成为人,被局限在这不完美的描述中。然而这些称呼和描述帮助我们在一切的试炼与祝福当中,认识主耶稣为救主。主耶稣是永远的救主。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus is identified by many names stated or implied in the four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John). Notice how Jesus is identified in just this one passage: child, son, Jesus, great, Son of the Most High, King, son of David, and leader of Israel (Jacob). Jesus exhausts all descriptions, and yet chose to be limited to imperfect descriptions by becoming human. But this flood of names and descriptions helps us find Jesus as our Savior in every trial and blessing of life. Jesus is Savior for all seasons.
我的祷告
圣洁全能的天父,为着主耶稣的一切描述和称呼,我感谢你。我从中看到他本性和品格的宽广与深邃。求你赐福我,使我在受恶者试探并经历疑惑的低谷时,永远都能因着耶稣的使命、称呼或描述而得到帮助。天父啊,求你帮助我,使我能看见主耶稣而非自己先入为主的想法或偏见。当主再来时,愿我能够认识他,他也认识我。奉救主荣耀之名求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Holy and Almighty Father, I thank you for all the ways Jesus is described and all the names he is given. They help me see the breadth of his nature and the depth of his character. Please bless me that I may always find a dimension of Jesus' ministry or a name or description of Jesus to help sustain me, when I walk through the shadows of doubt caused by the evil one. Help me, O Father, to see Jesus and not my preoccupations and biases so that when he comes again, I will know him, and he me. Through the glorious name of the Savior I pray. Amen.
