Размышление над стихом дня
Давайте попросим Бога, чтобы Он помог нам видеть людей глазами Иисуса, чтобы мы видели их как людей, в которых должно совершиться дело Божье. И что это за дело Божье? Иисус ответил на этот вопрос таким образом: Чтобы вы веровали в Того, Кого Он послал! (Иоанна 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!
Моя молитва
Отец Небесный, прошу Тебя, помоги мне видеть людей, окружающих меня, глазами Иисуса. Я хочу видеть, чтобы Твое дело совершилось в их жизни, поэтому, прошу Тебя, дай мне терпения когда я общаюсь с теми, которые поступают грубо, сострадания когда я общаюсь с теми, которые страдают и смелости когда я общаюсь с теми, которые готовы услышать Благую Весть Иисуса Христа. Во имя Иисуса Христа молюсь. Аминь.
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.
