喜樂之地

路加福音二十二章39-46節

神的小僕人

經文：

39 耶穌出來，照常往橄欖山去，門徒也跟隨他。

40 到了那地方，就對他們說：「你們要禱告，免得入了迷惑。」

41 於是離開他們約有扔一塊石頭那麼遠，跪下禱告，

42 說：「父啊！你若願意，就把這杯撤去；然而，不要成就我的意思，只要成就你的意思。」

43 有一位天使從天上顯現，加添他的力量。

44 耶穌極其傷痛，禱告更加懇切，汗珠如大血點滴在地上。

45 禱告完了，就起來，到門徒那裏，見他們因為憂愁都睡着了，

46 就對他們說：「你們為甚麼睡覺呢？起來禱告，免得入了迷惑！」

主耶穌在受難之前，面對人生的掙扎，曾經在天父面前禱告，禱告到一個地步，祂的汗水如血一樣流出來。但最終主耶穌仍是順服父神的旨意，為我們每一個罪人走上十字架。

禱告是信徒的權柄，也是面對挑戰的時候唯一的出路。主耶穌對門徒說：要警醒禱告，免得入了迷惑。

禱告：

親愛的主耶穌，謝謝祢的順服，謝謝祢為救贖我們死在十字架上。主耶穌，祢在世時每天清晨就去禱告，常常禱告，在艱難的時刻也是如此。我們也要在禱告上有更多的操練，求主教我們禱告，引導我們照祢的心意禱告。奉耶穌基督的名，阿們。

Luke 22:39-46

Jesus went out to pray with His disciples before He took up the Cross for us. He struggled as a human being and through earnest prayers, he prayed to the point that His sweat fell like drops of blood. In the end He obeyed the Father and took up the Cross.

Prayers is our privilege and our only weapon towards problems and struggles. Jesus asked His disciples to pray so that they would not fall into temptations. Likewise we need to pray and stay close to God so that we can finally obey in His will. How much time we spend on praying as the followers of Christ?

Jesus thank You for Your sacrifice, thank You for Your obedience which saves all sinners.
