約翰福音八章1-2節
神的小僕人
經文:
1 於是各人都回家去了,耶穌卻往橄欖山去。
2 清早又回到殿裡,眾百姓都到他那裡去,他就坐下教訓他們。
這兩節簡單的經文卻把我們屬靈的生命要素陳述了出來。耶穌往返橄欖山(禱告的地方)和聖殿(事奉的地方),這給了我們服事的榜樣。一個真正服事主的人先由禱告生活開始,沒有禱告,就沒有服事的能力。
今天信徒的生活實在太忙了,我們的生命中沒有橄欖山,也沒有聖殿,只有勞勞役役的生活、重複又重複的重擔和生活要求,卻忽略了和上帝親近的時間,更看輕了我們要服事的重要性。
禱告: 主耶穌,我們要每天來到祢面前禱告,祢是生命的糧,在祢裡面必得飽足。求主教我們願意親近和服事祢。奉耶穌的名禱告,阿們。
John 8:1-2
In this short passage, Jesus set a model of real ministry. He went up to the mountain (Mount Olive) to pray, and He went to the temple to teach. The two points show us the need for prayers in order that we can serve the Lord.
Believers are just too busy today. We are laboring for the world and we are ending in repetitive duties that burden us. We have no Mount olive not the Temple. What we need to do is to turn to God for empowerment. Prayer is the only way.
Lord may we come to seek You and be fed by You before we can serve You.
