今日靈修默想：『自從你出埃及地以來，我就是耶和華－你的神。在我以外，你不可認識別神；除我以外並沒有救主。…這些民照我所賜的食物得了飽足；既得飽足，心就高傲，忘記了我。』（何13:4-6）
默想一：你信主有多久了？但你對神的認識究竟有多少？神在乎的是，你對祂的認識。今天有不少的基督徒雖說認識神，但生活與信仰脫節，隨波逐流，甚或行為舉止背神而行。真正的認識神不是只「知道」神的存在，而是承認祂、尊重祂，與祂建立親密的關係，而且樂意遵從神的命令、要求，一心一意榮耀神的名。
默想二：疫情期間的基督徒正受到極大的信仰考驗，但你依然以心靈和真誠敬拜這一位全知、全能、全在的神嗎？神所要的，是只要你單單地信靠、認識、敬拜、事奉、愛祂。你對神的信、望、愛是跟著環境在變嗎？你起初對神的火熱冷淡了嗎？你對神的認識可從你與神的持續地、漸進地、更深地的關係可知。
禱告：阿爸父神，感謝袮。因袮滿有憐憫，有恩典，不輕易發怒，且有豐盛的慈愛。多少時候，我會莽撞、隨便、驕傲、跌倒，經常是自以為是，不追求靈命長進，求袮赦免我。求袮幫助我，我願善用時光，堅守每日與你親近的靈修生活，我要用一生竭力追求認識袮，直到見主面。奉靠主耶穌基督的名求，阿們！
“Today’s spiritual meditation”: “But I have been the LORD your God ever since you came out of Egypt. You shall acknowledge no God but me, no Savior except me. I cared for you in the wilderness, in the land of burning heat. When I fed them, they were satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; then they forgot me.”(Hosea 13:4-6)
Meditation one: How long have you believed in the Lord? Yet how much do you know God? What God cares about is your knowledge of Him. Today there are many Christians who say they know God, but their lives are away from their beliefs, they follow randomly with the trend, or even behave against God. To truly know God is not just to “know” God’s existence, but to acknowledge Him, adore Him, establish an intimate relationship with Him, and be willing to obey God’s commands and orders, and glorify God’s name wholeheartedly.
Meditation two: During the pandemic, Christians are being seriously tested in their faith, and do you still worship this omniscient, almighty, and omnipresent God in spirit and truth? All God wants is if you simply trust, know, worship, serve, and love Him. Are your faith, hope, and love for God changing with the environment? Were you cold toward the fiery you had in God at first? Your knowledge of God can be seen from your ongoing, progressive, and deeper relationship with God.
Prayer: God Abba Father, thank You. For You are full of mercy, gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in love. How often I am reckless, laidback, proud, and fall; often self-righteous, not pursuing spiritual growth. Please forgive me. I ask You to help me, I would like to make good use of my time and continue to have a spiritual life of being close to You every day. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray, Amen!
