耶利米書29章10-14節
神的小僕人
經文:
10 耶和華如此說:為巴比倫所定的七十年滿了以後,我要眷顧你們,
11 耶和華說:我知道我向你們所懷的意念,是賜平安的意念,
12 你們要呼求我,禱告我,我就應允你們。
13 你們尋求我,若專心尋求我,就必尋見。
14 耶和華說:我必被你們尋見,我也必使你們被擄的人歸回,
猶太人被據到巴比倫,滿了七十年的日子,
我們會問為何要讓以色列人受七十年的苦呢?確實有許多的時候,
禱告:
親愛的天父,祢的意念不是要傷害我們,乃是要祝福我們,
Jeremiah 29:10-14
The Jews were taken captivity to Babylon, and God delivered them after the full seventy years. God declared His good promises of deliverance and His master plan to bless and restore. The seventy years of suffering is in His plan and the promise of deliverance is our hope.
Why seventy years, why pain, we may ask. So often we are trapped in all kinds of sufferings and desperation that we cannot comprehend. Yet it is in this time of needs and difficult circumstances, we come to know God and experience His saving hands. We will then experience the grace of God and recognise our weakness.
God’s plan is not to harm us but give us peace and hope. He promises and we must believe.
