在忧伤或压力中, 曾否有人对你说: "我了解" 呢？其实, 说这句话的时候一定要小心谨慎。我们真的明白别人的感受吗？他人真正了解我们自己的感受吗？许多时候, 我们的理解并非真的理解。然而, 那些的确有过类似经历的人, 却真的能因着感同身受而带给我们莫大的安慰。 福音的意思是"好消息" , 其中一个重大的意义, 就是耶稣了解我们, 祂"知道" 。耶稣邀请我们一同承担祂的使命, 与祂一同传递爱的信息, 祂说: "父怎样差遣了我, 我也照样差遣你们。" (约翰福音20:21) 圣经中有一词句, 非常贴切地描述了耶稣是怎样被差遣来到世上的 ——"道成肉身" 。耶稣降世为人, 住在我们中间, 也出入于我们的社区当中。祂经历过我们经历的一切, 甚至还被试探, "与我们一样, 只是祂没有犯罪" 。祂"知道" , 因为祂曾和我们一样。 这岂不是大好的消息吗？数年前, 有一首流行歌曲唱到: "若神与我, 又将如何？" 然而, 这本身就是一个不容置疑的事实, 神已经让自己的独生爱子道成肉身来到人间, 为的就是拯救我们。 今天, 你觉得神将你安放在你的社区当中的心意是什么呢？现在就来思考这个问题吧。 |
In situations of grief or stress, have you ever heard someone say, "I understand?" It's a risky statement. It should be used with great caution. Can we really understand what someone else is experiencing? Can someone else really feel what I'm feeling? Most of the time we get it wrong. But sometimes there is real comfort when someone who's "been there" understands a lot of what we are going through. The gospel means "good news," and a major dimension of this is that Jesus understands us. He "gets it." Jesus invites us to join him in his sending mission of love. He says, "As the Father has sent me, I am sending you" (John 20:21). There's a big word that describes exactly how Jesus was sent into the world. It's called incarnation. Jesus became one of us. He lived among us. He hung out in our neighborhood. He experienced life fully and completely as we do. He was even tempted, "as we are—yet he did not sin." He "gets it" because he was one of us. Isn't that incredible good news? A few years ago there was a popular song that said, "What if God were one of us ... ?" But he already is. God chose to reach us through his Son, Jesus, becoming a human being in every respect. Why do you think God has put you in your neighborhood? Think about that today. |
祷告主啊, 感谢祢陪我走过人生的每一个小站, 求祢教导我怎样在我的社区中与邻舍打交道, 好使我能和他们分享祢的救恩。奉耶稣的名求, 阿们！ |
PrayerLord, thank you for walking with me through my life's situations. Show me how to connect with others in my neighborhood and to share your good news with them. Amen. |
今天经文： 约翰福音1:1-14; 希伯来书2:17-18; 4:14-161 太初有道, 道与神同在, 道就是神。2 这道太初与神同在。 3 万物是藉着他造的; 凡被造的, 没有一样不是藉着他造的。 4 生命在他里头, 这生命就是人的光。 5 光照在黑暗里, 黑暗却不接受光。 6 有一个人, 是从神那里差来的, 名叫约翰。 7 这人来, 为要作见证, 就是为光作见证, 叫众人因他可以信。 8 他不是那光, 乃是要为光作见证。 9 那光是真光, 照亮一切生在世上的人。 10 他在世界, 世界也是藉着他造的, 世界却不认识他。 11 他到自己的地方来, 自己的人倒不接待他。 12 凡接待他的, 就是信他名的人, 他就赐他们权柄作神的儿女。 13 这等人不是从血气生的, 不是从情欲生的, 也不是从人意生的, 乃是从神生的。 14 道成了肉身, 住在我们中间, 充充满满地有恩典有真理。我们也见过他的荣光, 正是父独生子的荣光。 17 所以, 他凡事该与他的弟兄相同, 为要在神的事上成为慈悲忠信的大祭司, 为百姓的罪献上挽回祭。 18 他自己既然被试探而受苦, 就能搭救被试探的人。 14 我们既然有一位已经升入高天尊荣的大祭司, 就是神的儿子耶稣, 便当持定所承认的道。 15 因我们的大祭司并非不能体恤我们的软弱。他也曾凡事受过试探, 与我们一样, 只是他没有犯罪。 16 所以, 我们只管坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前, 为要得怜恤, 蒙恩惠, 作随时的帮助。 回到页顶 |
