讀經：哥林多前書第八章。
默想：「若有人愛神，這人乃是神所知道的。」（林前8:3）
默想一：基督徒的愛心為什麼比知識（聖經、神學、屬靈、屬世…）重要？因爲知識容易叫人自高自大，唯有愛心能造就人。知識不在乎擁有多少，乃在如何運用。我們愛，因為神先愛我們。愛神的人，是神所知道、所肯定、所賞識、所悅納的。不要在乎人是否了解你為神作了多少，要在乎的是你所作的是否蒙神記念。
默想二：你現在為主所事奉、所獻上、所付出的沒有人了解嗎？感謝主！祂都知道，因「主認識誰是祂的人」（提後2:19）。我們認識神很重要，但神認識我們更重要。「耶和華不像人看人，人是看外貌；耶和華是看內心」（撒上16:7）。
禱告：天父上帝，感謝祢的全知、全能、全在。求祢幫助我，除了渴慕追求真道，更要活出祢的愛。讓人看到的我不是滿有屬靈的知識，而是心中有愛的人。奉主耶穌寶貴的名禱告，阿們！
Bible reading: 1 Corinthians 8.
Insight: “But whoever loves God is known by God.” (1Co 8:3)
Insight one: Why is Christians’ love more essential than their knowledge (Biblical, theological, religious, worldly…)? It is because knowledge puffs up while love builds up. Knowledge is not a matter of quantity but a matter of how to practice it. We love because He first loved us. Whoever loves God is known, affirmed, valued, and delighted by God. Do not concern whether people recognize how much you have done for God, but cherish what you have done is remembered by God.
Insight two: Do you think no one recognizes what you have been serving for, or devoting to, or giving to God? Thank the Lord! He knows all these because “The Lord knows those who are His” (2Ti 2:19). It is important that we know God, but it is more important that God knows us. “The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart” (1Sa 16:7).
Prayer: God heavenly Father, thank You. You are omniscient, almighty, and ubiquitous. Please help me, besides longing for pursuing the truth, more importantly is to live out Your love. Let people see me not a person full of spiritual knowledge, but a person with a heart filled with love. I pray in the precious name, of the Lord Jesus, Amen!
