오늘의 묵상
당신의 삶 속에서 어떤 음성에 귀를 기울이고 계신가요? 우리는 모든 종류의 여러 음성을 들을 수 있지만, 한 가지 소리에만 귀를 기울일 수 있습니다. 당신은 도덕, 가치관, 윤리, 성품에 대해서 결정해야 할 때 누구의 말을 들으실 건가요? 삶, 죽음, 구원, 죄에 대해 들려주실 권리가 있으신 분이 누구일까요? 하나님께서는 도저히 놓치지 못할 만큼 명확하게 하셨습니다 — 우리는 그분의 아들 예수님을 경청하면 됩니다!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Who are you listening to in your life? We can hear all sorts of different voices and listen to all sorts of religious commentary and insight. However, we can follow only One as the Source of all truth and life. Who are we going to listen to as we make our decisions about morality, values, ethics, and character? Who has earned the right to be heard regarding truth, life, death, sin, and salvation? God makes it unmistakably clear at the Mount of Transfiguration: we must listen to his Son Jesus! Moses was amazing, and Elijah was bold and brave. Peter, James, and John were blown away to see them at Jesus' transfiguration. But God made it clear: we must listen, obey, and follow only one as our source of truth, and God said of him, "This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to him!"
내 기도
전능하신 하나님, 제 주위의 의심, 속임수, 선동의 목소리에 귀를 기울이지 않도록 도와 주십시오. 예수님의 목소리를 듣고 그분을 따르며 당신의 뜻에 순종하는 것을, 제 주변 사람들이 무엇을 하든 상관없이 할 수 있도록 도와주십시오. 예수님 이름으로 기도합니다. 아멘.
My Prayer...
Almighty God, I need the Holy Spirit's help to silence the voices of dispute, doubt, deception, and demagoguery surrounding me. Help me hear the voice of Jesus above the noise of politicians, influencers, and self-appointed experts of my day. I want to follow Jesus and obey him in all things, no matter what anyone else may choose to do or to whom they entrust their hearts. Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
