讀經:约翰福音第十章。
默想:耶穌說:「我來了,是要叫羊(或作人)得生命,並且得的更豐盛。」(約10:10)
默想一:你渴望有一個『豐盛的生命』嗎?這種生命不是指成功、亨通、健康、富有,而是認識基督、跟隨基督、傳揚基督。基督是如何的豐盛,人所得的就是如何的豐盛。當你願意付上代價跟隨基督時,你的生命會有意想不到的豐盛,你會經歷恩上加恩、力上加力的喜樂。
默想二:你現在的屬靈生命如何?是更豐盛,還是更枯竭?是更長進,還是更退後?是更喜樂,還是更憂愁?豐盛的生命是沒有捷徑的,它是經由信心不斷操練而成。可能你得經過高山低谷、大風大浪、百般試煉,甚至付上代價,你只要恆守每日的讀經禱告,存謙卑的心,與神同行,祂必領你進入更豐盛的生命。
禱告:父神,感謝祢所賜的生命。求祢的聖靈時刻地光照我,使我屬靈的生命成長的有長度、有闊度、有高度、有深度,活出袮豐盛的生命。奉主耶穌基督的名禱告,阿們。
Bible Reading: John 10.
Insight: “Jesus said: “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”” (Joh 10:10)
Insight one: Are you long for an “abundant life”? This life does not mean being more successful, more prosperous, healthier, wealthier, but means to know Christ, follow Him, and proclaim Him. How abundance Christ is, we will receive the same abundance. When you are willing to pay the price to follow Christ, your life will have unexpected abundance, and you will experience the joy of grace upon grace and strength upon strength.
Insight two: How is your spiritual life? Is it more abundant, or is it more exhausted? Is it growing, or is it falling back? There is no shortcut to reach an abundant life except through consistent exercise by faith. Perhaps you have to go through mountains and valleys, storms and waves, and even pay a price. You just have to keep the daily Bible reading and prayer, with a humble heart, walk with God; He will lead you into a more abundant life.
Prayer: God our Father, thank You for the life You gave to us. May your Holy Spirit shine on me every moment, so that my spiritual life will grow in length, in width, in height and in depth, and live out Your abundant life. I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!
