《今日靈修默想》:「我們曉得萬事都互相效力,叫愛神的人得益處,就是按祂旨意被召的人。」(羅8:28)

默想一:愛神的人為什麼能在黑夜唱詩讚美神?因為他相信任何臨到的患難都不是偶然,他知道神能使任何發生的事互相效力成為有益的事。剛開始可能不明白,但後來會為神讚嘆的作為感恩。愛神的,凡事都有神的美意,神必眷顧到底。

默想二:你正處在心碎、憂傷、絕望、沮喪、無助嗎?無論你的情況多糟,轉向主絕不會錯。主對你的愛是不離不棄的。既然祂對你的愛是永不改變,你也要堅定你對祂的愛。我們對祂的愛永遠比不上祂對我們的愛。

禱告:阿爸父神,我讚美祢。因為有祢,我可以勇敢地面對每一天。因著祢,我不再懼怕魔鬼來的抵擋、陷害、控告、定罪。祢已經應許我「靠著愛我們的主,在這一切的事上已經得勝有餘了。」(羅8:37)奉耶穌基督的名禱告。阿們!

《Today’s spiritual meditation》:  “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” (Rom 8:28)

Meditation one: Why a person who loves God can sing hymns in a dark night to praise God? For he/she believes that all things that happened was not by accident, and he/she knows that in all things God can work for the good of him/her. It may not be understood at first, but it will later become a thanksgiving for God’s amazing work. For those who love God, all things have the mystery of God’s will and God will care for all the way through.

Meditation two: Do you feel hopeless, sorrowful, desperate, depressed, and helpless? No matter how horrific your situation is, turn to the Lord will never be wrong. The Lord’s love for you will never leave you alone. Since His love for you will never change, you must also firm your love for Him. Our love for Him can never exceed His love for us.

Prayer: Abba heavenly Father, I praise You. Because I have You, I can bravely face every single day to come. Because of You, I no longer fear the confrontation, entrapping, accusation, and condemnation from the devil. You have promised me that “in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.” (Rom 8:37) I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen!
