Gedanken zum Vers des Tages
Lasst uns Gottes Hilfe erbitten, damit wir die Menschen durch die Augen Jesu sehen können - als Menschen, in denen Gottes Werk verrichtet werden soll. Und was genau ist dieses Werk Gottes? Nun, Jesus hat die Frage so beantwortet: „Das ist Gottes Werk, dass ihr an den glaubet, den er gesandt hat!“ (Joh.6,28-29)
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Let's ask God to help us view people through the eyes of Jesus so that we will see them as someone in whom the work of God needs to be displayed. When Jesus and his followers approached a man who was blind from birth, the disciples assumed that this misfortune had happened because someone had sinned. Jesus saw their labeling of the man as dehumanizing to the man and a dismissal of his value as a person because they thought he had sinned or his parents had. So, Jesus taught them, and if we pay attention, he teaches us to see a person's hurt as our opportunity and responsibility to bring God's grace to someone in need. So, what is this work of God we are to help display in people's lives? Jesus had answered that question earlier in his ministry: "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent" (John 6:28-29) — Jesus!
Mein Gebet
Vater, hilf mir bitte die Menschen um mich so zu sehen, wie Jesus sie sieht. Ich möchte dein Werk in ihrem Leben verwirklicht sehen. Schenk mir also Geduld für jene, die grob und unhöflich sind, Freundlichkeit für die, die leiden, und Mut für jene, die für die Gute Nachricht in Jesus bereit sind. Im Namen von Christus Jesus bete ich. Amen.
My Prayer...
Father, please help me see the people around me as Jesus does. I want to ensure that your work is done in their lives. Please give me patience with rude people, tenderness with hurting people, and boldness with those who are ready to hear the Good News of Jesus. Use me to help others display your work in their lives! In the name of Christ Jesus, I pray. Amen.
