Irreversible Victory

Wednesday, December 30, 2015

Psalm 3:8- “Victory comes from you, O LORD. May you bless your people."
‭‭
My friends, You can't earn victory by your effort and even if you can, it requires your effort to maintain it. Don't you realize that relying by your own effort is full of burden and heavy laiden? You need to ensure that you are able to do it, but when one day you fail, condemnation starts to rule. But victory in life comes from Jesus and Jesus alone! It is through His finished work at the cross that you gain victory over your health, finance, relationship and all! It is because of Jesus perfect accomplishment that you can enjoy all that He has accomplished! It is never you who can do it by your own but simply Jesus! He has blessed you with all that He has, so stand firm in the victory ground, stand firm in what He has promised you, stand firm knowing that salvation comes from Jesus alone, stand firm knowing that you can't maintain your salvation, it's Jesus perfect sacrifice that maintains it for you for eternal! Therefore, when you are In Christ, nothing can reverse what He has done for you!

感恩

Wednesday, December 30, 2015

诗 107：22 - 愿他们以感谢为祭献给祂，欢呼述说祂的作为。

转眼间，一年很快的又过去了，来到了2015年的最后一天，相信每个人都在细细数算主的恩典在这一年来实在是够我们用。肯定的，在这一年来，我们都经历了无数的悲欢离合，喜怒哀乐，但是，在每一件的事情中，无论是好是坏，我们都在学习一门功课。而每一段经历，都叫我们成长。其实，我们要为我们所有的一切献上满心的感恩，因为是我们的主把我们带到此时此刻，顾念我们，带领我们到现在我们所在的位置。回头看一看，你就晓得主恩是如此的浩大，祂对我们的怜悯是如此的有恩典。我们本不配得，但是祂却叫我们成为配得；我们本是罪人，但祂却使我们称义；我们本是贫穷，祂却用自己的富足来与我们对换。如此的恩典，还不足我们对祂献上感恩吗？

是的，我们应当在这个特别的日子里，数算主的恩典，欢呼述说祂的作为在我们的生命中。每一个细节祂都了如指掌，并且细心的为我们安排，确保我们是活在祂的恩典里。不但如此，祂赐下各样的美物，赐下各样的丰盛，赐下各样的好处，为要叫我们得益处。这样的一位神，叫我们如何不感谢祂呢？有谁能够为了我们这些人献上一切，包括了自己的独生爱子？

所以，让我们不但在这特别的日子里感恩，也要无时无刻的感谢祂，纪念祂所为我们成就的一切。而我们要做的就是，相信那位祂所差来的独生爱子，耶稣基督，并且把这好消息传给我们身边的每一个人。阿门！

祢与我同在

Wednesday, December 30, 2015

创世记28：15 我也与你同在，你无论往哪里去，我必保佑你，领你归回这地，总不离弃你，直到我成全了向你所应许的]。

你正在黑暗中迷航嗎？或是感到憂傷、恐懼、罪疚、懷疑或失望？你逐漸對耶稣失去信心？但對耶稣而言，没有什么能拦阻祂对你的爱。雖是肉眼無法看見，但祂確實近在咫尺。祂說：「我總不撇下你，也不丟棄你」（希伯來書13：5）。

启示录19：16 。。。万王之王，万主之主。

因着耶稣的恩典與救贖，我们必然在仇敵面前大大的誇勝，並且知道，唯有祂是最可靠的，祂是我们随时的帮助，我們呼求的時候，祂必應允我們。如同在大海中一样，并不是什么都可以抓的，唯有抓住從船上扔下的繩索，才能安全的上岸。耶穌基督是昨日、今日，一直到永遠都不改變的，祂是最堅固的磐石，永不動搖，唯有信靠祂，才是我们人生最对的选择。

親愛主耶稣，感谢祢对我永远的爱，祢應許總不撇下，也不丟棄我們，这话是真的。當眼前一片黑暗濛濛時，我就轉眼仰望祢，我就看见光亮了，有祢的同在，驅散黑暗，恐惧就逃跑，我心得安慰。阿门！

Filled With Good Things

Tuesday, December 29, 2015

Psalm 103:5- “He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!”
‭‭
God is a Father who keeps all His promises, whatever He has spoken, it shall be done. Therefore, are you hearing good news each day? Or are you hearing the bad reports and circling yourself around that news all the time? For only the gospel, which is the good news about Jesus Christ is able to save us! Therefore, good news is here for you today! No matter what is the desire of your heart right now, be it seeing restoration in your family, or being healthy once again, you know what? God fills your life with good things! Never ever think that sickness, poverty, disasters are all acts of God, they are not of God! For God is a God that fills your life with good things! If sickness is not a good thing, then it's not from God; if poverty is not a good thing then why would you think that it's from God? He only has good things and He fills you, filling means making it into fullness! He uses good things in your life and ensures that they are to the fullness. Besides that, He also renewed your youth like the eagle's, what a wonderful promise! So you're getting younger each day, energetic and strong! Say it to yourself: God has filled my life with good things and my youth is renewed! Praise The Lord!

Kingly Treatment

Monday, December 28, 2015

Psalm 103:10- “he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.”
‭‭
Imagine that if we are to be treated based on our sins and receiving repayment based on our iniquities, how sorrowful it can be and how hopeless it can be? However, for God so loves that world, for God so loves you and I that He sent Jesus to come to the rescue! God is a father who has compassion and love towards you, He does not treat us as our sins deserve but instead He sent Jesus as a Savior to save us! Therefore, if we are to receive whatever that we deserve, we will not live life abundantly, and if God's heart is to punish you, there's no reason that He would need to send Jesus to us and sacrificing for us at the cross. There's no reason for Jesus to be punished by bearing all the stripes, to be thrown into the dungeon and to suffer. But all that He did has a reason and that is to save you! Jesus took the treatment that we deserved by sacrificing on the cross so that we have the kingly treatment He owns! How wonderful! We are supposed to be punished, but Jesus took it; we are supposed to be cursed but Jesus took it, therefore we took His kingly treatment by being blessed! We are supposed to be punished with sickness, but Jesus bore it at the cross so that we can have His kingly health by being healthy and enjoy long life! My friends, do not let Jesus died in vain, for all that He did carry a purpose - that is to save you! Remember that you are no longer the same, but the transfer and divine exchange has taken place, you are now reigning in life like a king with Jesus at the right hand side of our Father in Heaven! :)

凡仰望神的，不至于蒙羞

Monday, December 28, 2015

诗 34:5 - 凡仰望祂的，便有光荣；他们的脸，必不蒙羞。

我们的每一天，每一个时刻，身边总会有许许多多的事在围绕着我们。有些是喜事，有些是坏事，有些则是麻烦事。但是，在每一件事情的背后总会有些事情是值得我们去学习的。在一件好事中赞美神，是一件容易的事；但要在糟糕的情况下赞美神，或许很多的人都不能够做到。其实，神的话却是告诉我们，当我们仰望祂，我们是不至羞愧的。你知道吗？我们的神是大有能力的主，是能把不好的变成好，能让死人复活的神，凡到祂那里的都是活的。在我们主的手里是一切安好，祂的话告诉我们说：人若遵守神的道，就必不见死。（约 8:51）这话是真的，是可信的。

朋友们，当你处于四面楚歌的环境时，仰望神，不要看向你的问题，因为你的神能够帮助你渡过你的问题，而你的问题只会把你打得更低，因此，仰望那能帮助我们的神，祂不会让你羞愧。今天，当你面对悲伤的事时，仰望你的神，因为祂要擦去你一切的眼泪，祂要脱去你的麻衣，为你披上喜乐的衣。当你受压制的时候，仰望你的神，祂要释放你，使你得自由。

所以，无论任何环境，不论遇到什么问题，我们都应当仰望我们的神，因为唯有祂是我们的帮助，唯有祂是对我们不离不弃的神，也只有耶稣是我们唯有的道路、真理、生命。这样棒的一位神，我们怎能不要呢？因此，紧抓着祂，无时无刻仰望祂，在你的生命中肯定是不至蒙羞的，因为祂要把你生命中一切的羞辱变成荣耀！阿门！

五谷必然丰盛

Monday, December 28, 2015

诗篇72：16 在地的山頂上，五穀必然茂盛。

通常在山頂上，沒有什麼植物，只有光禿禿的石頭和青苔，當然，你也不会看到那裡有五穀茂盛的景像。

在诗篇72，所罗门向上帝求告：「在地的山頂上，五穀必然茂盛」。这描述了他作王時富饶的景像。如果在山頂上生長五穀极不尋常，那所罗门的祷告是要表明什么呢？这是要表明即使在貧脊之地，上帝的大能仍可令粮食出產。是的，这告诉我们说，在人所不能的，在神凡事都能（马太19：26），我们若能信，在信的人，凡事都能（马可9：23）。即使在旷野，即使在沙漠，全能的神也能为你开道路，开江河。哈利路亚！

也許你觉得自己很渺小，你的存在可有可无，可天父祂却视你为宝为尊（以赛亚43：4），祂把你铭刻在祂掌心上（以赛亚49:16），祂要使用你 來成就大事，你的生命是兴起发光，不能被隐藏的，人都要来亲近你帮助你的，恩惠与慈爱是紧随你的。阿们！

以赛亚书41：18我要在净光的高处开江河，在谷中开泉源，我要使沙漠变为水池，使干地变为涌泉。

God Who Gives Good Things

Sunday, December 27, 2015

Psalm 34:10- “The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.”
‭‭
Dear friends, imagine a strong lion may grow weak and hungry; they might be prowling and seeking for food and yet they found nothing, regardless how strong they can be. Likewise, we might be full occupied with knowledge and skills, we might be strong in certain areas of life, we might be capable by our own, but don't you realize that there are times like Peter, you tried to catch fish for a whole night and yet not even one is in your net? Life in Christ is not effortful, but as you invite Jesus to your life, just like Peter, as he allowed Jesus to come into His boat, it was just over a few hours time that he experienced tremendous change that he needs other boats to help him load the catch! Likewise, as you pursue Jesus, turn your eyes upon Jesus, and let your thought be occupied with Him, as you seek Him first and ultimately as you know who is in your boat, you shall lack no good thing! God has lavished you with love, blessing, favor, peace, inheritances, He is a Father who gives good things to His children, includes you! Therefore, rely on Jesus and His finished work, and all you can do is to rest in His love knowing that you shall lack no good thing, get ready for a net breaking and boat sinking blessing!

From Wailing Into Dancing

Sunday, December 27, 2015

Psalm 30:11 - You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy.

Coming to the end of the year, as you look back to the past few months, you will realise that the God who is faithful in bringing you through before, is still faithful to bring you through now! Jesus is forever the same, and guess what? He will never fail you! Life may be throwing you lemons, but remember that you can turn the lemon into lemonade! Things may seem rough, waves may seem rough, storms may seem great, but guess what? You are always above the storms, you are always at the position of Christ, as He is, so are you in this world! Therefore, be glad that God has turned your wailing into dancing, so instead of dwelling in the mistakes and problems, wailing over them, why not stand up and turn it into dancing? When God promised you, there must be a turning point! Furthermore, He has removed your sackcloth and clothed you with joy! When you are clothed with joy, it simply means, no matter where you are, what you are doing, the joy of the Lord has become your strength, you are covered with His everlasting joy! Hence, step into a new day with boldness, for God's grace is always enough for you!

平安的鞋

Saturday, December 26, 2015

弗 6:15
又用平安的福音当作预备走路的鞋穿在脚上。

亲爱的朋友，你穿上那使你能前进的鞋了吗？
很多时候当我们穿着名牌的鞋子比如Adidas, Nike, New Balance, Sketchers还有你能命名出来的各种品牌(也就代表着我们每走一步都是靠着自己战战兢兢地走过每一天），使我们每走一步都在担心接下来会如何，尤其是当我们走在烂泥的路上时，更是害怕自己的鞋子会弄肮脏。
既然会让自己那么麻烦，我们何不穿上Phua Chu Kang常穿的那双黄靴子呢？穿上那样的一双鞋，我们就能自在地走过那烂泥路了，对吗？
经过以上的陈述，你能把它连接回你的日常生活吗？
与其走人生的每一步都带着忧虑和重担，我们何不尝试放手让神来接手？
与其挣扎受苦，我们何不相信那从不会让我们失望的神呢？
现在是时候选择和前进了，亲爱的！
选择以神的话和来自他的好消息来走我们的每一天吧！
那平安的福音引我们到那应许之地，且是不附加重担和忧虑的。
纵然每一天我们都会面对问题，但你可以选择信靠神，依赖他而不是依赖自己有限的能力。

让我们穿上那平安的鞋继续带着平安、喜乐和爱不断地前进。
在他里面，我们找着那时刻在我们需要的时候托住我们的希望和恩典。
赞美主！

The Shoes Of Peace

Friday, December 25, 2015

Eph 6:15
and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

Dear friend, have you put on the shoes that enable you to walking forward?
There is a lot of times when we are wearing the shoes with famous brand such as Adidas, Nike, New Balance, Sketchers and etc that you can name of (which symbolize the steps we take with anxious and worries by self effort in our daily lives), always cause us to walk with extra carefulness that lead to heavy laden and pressure especially when we are walking through the place full of mud.
Instead of making ourselves not convenient, why not we put on the "yellow boot" that Phua Chu Kang used to wear and walk freely across the mud, right?
After the above illustration, can you relate it back to your daily life?
Instead of taking every step of life with worries and awareness that burden us, why not we let god and let God?
Instead of striving and struggling, why not we put our trust on the God who never fails us?
Now is the time for you to decide and move on, beloved!
Let's choose to walk your life with the word of God and the good news that God has given to you daily.
The gospel of peace leads you to the promised land without heavy burdens and worries. Though you might face problems each day, but you can put your trust in God and rely on Him instead of yourself.

Let's put on the shoes of peace and move forward readily with peace, joy and love.
In Him, we found hope and grace that sustains us in time of our need.
Praise the Lord!

与主同行

Friday, December 25, 2015

赛 32:17 - 公义的果效必是平安；公义的效验必是平稳，直到永远。

亲爱的朋友，今天在你的生命中，你是与谁同行呢？是与你无所不能的主同行？还是你的问题同行？想想看，我们的生命要结出怎样的果子？你要看见什么果子在你的生命中彰显出来？是公义所结的果子，就是一切光明，良善，爱，诚实等等的果子？还是忧虑，烦躁，不信，没有盼望的果子？今天，你必须做一个对的选择，好让你的生命是充满对的果子，是充满色彩的生活。

平安，稳定，丰盛，富足，福气等的果子，相信是每个人都要追求的。但很多时候我们所面临的却是事与愿违，我们想得到的偏偏得不到。但是今天，神的话很清楚的告诉我们，当我们认识神，就得平安，福气也必临到我们。（伯 22:21）什么是认识？认识不单单是知道，而是更深入的了解，明白一个人的个性，性情，甚至他所作的一切。所以，我们的生命要认识神，要明白神的性情，了解祂所做的都是为了我们。而这一切，我们可以通过圣经去了解，认识祂。当神的话一出，是决不徒然返回的，并且要成就祂所喜悦的，祂的话是有功效，是大有能力的，神所说的每一句话，你信吗？你若能信，在信的人凡事都能！

所以，我们的生命若是与主同行，我们遵守神的话，就必不见死。我们所作的一切会是亨通，凡事顺利的。凡在我们手上的，将会成为加倍的祝福，加倍丰盛的，因为有主成为我们的供应。因此，让我们的生命是天天与主同行，是被神的爱所充满的。阿门！

领受所相信的

Friday, December 25, 2015

希伯来书11：27 他恆心忍耐，如同看見那不能看見的主。
希伯来书11：33他们因着信，制服了敌国，行了公义，得力应许，堵了狮子的口。

在生活当中，我们的心情常常因着环境而变化，一時冷，一時热；一時高，一時低；這是什么原因呢？就是我们时常被眼见的左右了，但耶稣要我們在每一件事物上都看見祂，以他为中心，虽然很多时候眼见的都是负面的，他却能把不好的变成好。

我們一直過着一上一下的生活，这是一种倚靠環境的信心，但上帝不要我们这样，圣经说我们行事为人要凭信心，不要凭着见（哥林多后书5：7）。世界告訴我們【见而信】，但是上帝要我們【信而見】。耶稣是昨日、今日、一直到永远都是一样都的（希伯来书13：8）。祂看见我们的将来，未来在他手中，祂是时间以外的神，当祂告诉我们不要挂心不要忧虑时，我们尽管把一切都交托吧，唯有祂是我们值得相信的神。

当保罗说“应当一无挂虑，只要凡事藉着祷告、祈求和感谢，将你们所要的告诉神。神所赐出人意外的平安，必在基督耶稣里，保守你们的心怀意念”（腓立比书4：6-7）。这话是真的，是可信的。亲爱的朋友，不要让環境来决定你生命的走向，却要让基督彰显在你生命中。信心是相信我們所不見的，而信心的酬報就是领受我們所相信的。啊们！

The Only Reason of Christmas

Thursday, December 24, 2015

Isaiah 9:6- “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
‭‭
Christmas speaks of a very precious gift that was given for us- and that is Jesus!! Jesus was given for a reason, and that reason is you! Therefore know that the Lamb of God has came to remove all your sins and iniquities; you have been transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of Him! Therefore, your life is full of hope and confident expectation of good. Why? Just because your whole life is sustained on His shoulder, you're under His responsibility! And be sure that when you are His responsibility, Jesus takes perfect care of you! He is faithful, and whatever He have said, He will do it. He is your Wonderful Counselor, no matter how many things that you are uncertain of and you have no solution of, He is your Counselor, He fights your case, He knows the best way! He is your Mighty God, for all things that seems impossible in your life, know that He is mighty and He can bring them to pass in your life! He is called your Everlasting Father, note that He's a Father, not a master that you will be called a slave, not a judgmental God that you will be judged, but He is a Father and you are His child! What a closeness that He longs to have with you! So you can come boldly to His throne of grace, you can be bold and call Him "Abba Father!" Knowing that He loves you! Ultimately He is a prince of Peace, not a prince of confusion, Jesus came to bring you peace, peace in your life, your thought, your body and all in all! His peace is not the peace of the world that relies and depends on the external circumstances, but His peace surpasses all understanding that even storms and waves have to listen to Him! Dear friends, Take time to give thanks to Him today and enjoy His fullness of grace and abundance of love, blessed Christmas to you!

Lift Up Your Head

Wednesday, December 23, 2015

Luke 21:28- “When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.””
‭‭
Even if there are issues seem to be surrounding you right now, even if in this world there are problems, even if the challenges seem to be so great, remember that all you need to do is to stand firm in God's love and fullness of grace, and lift up your head!! Many of times we may feel shameful when looking upon the issues and challenges around, you feel condemning when you are in lack, you feel worthless when you missed that good opportunity, but do you know that God is a God of restoration? He is able to restore all that you've lost, replace all the shames that you may be facing now with goodness and goodness and His abundance of goodness!!
So, lift up your head knowing that you have a Father who loves you deeply, He removed and remembers not your past mistakes, He has given you a totally new future, full of hope and glory! My friends, Be bold and courageous, fear not, for your Redeemer lives and He will not put you to shame! You will see redemption with your own eyes, you will lift up your head and walk the journey of life with Jesus, hurray!

救主的诞生

Wednesday, December 23, 2015

赛 9:6 - 因有一婴孩为我们而生，有一子赐给我们，政权必担在祂的肩头上。祂名称为“奇妙策士”、“全能的神”、“永在的父”、“和平的君”！

在两千多年前，有个救主被差到这世上来，为了你，为了我，祂要成就大事在我们的生命中。这个救主为了我们牺牲了自己，祂背负我们的重担，为了我们的罪孽被压伤，为了我们受刑罚，为了我们被羞辱，为了我们被弃绝。然而，祂却没有一句怨言，并且是心甘情愿的为了我们而走上十字架。一切的政权都担在祂肩上，而且祂是全能的神，是昔在今在永在的父，对于祂所爱的世人，祂更是爱到底。

朋友们，今天在你的生命中你面临什么样的挑战？有什么事情是让你烦恼的？经上记着说：靠着那爱我们的主，在一切的事上已经得胜有余了。（罗 8:37）因此，我们可以靠着我们的救主，耶稣基督，而胜过一切的挑战，因为祂是带领我们夸胜的主。因着祂在两千多年前的诞生以及为了我们走上十字架，因此我们今天是充满盼望的。不但如此，我们更因着祂而成为义人，成为有福之人，也因着祂而享受祂所为我们成就的一切。这个救主的诞生给我们带来了新生命，带来了美好的盼望，并且是我们每天的指引。

所以，我们要时时刻刻献上感恩，感谢我们天上的父把祂的独生爱子赐给我们，好叫我们今天是活在盼望中，是活在美好的旨意中。因此，要谨记在我们的生命中有个爱我们的主，体恤我们的神，是充满能力，是供应我们需要的神。让我们把这个好消息传给我们身边的每一个人吧！阿门！

最珍贵的礼物

Wednesday, December 23, 2015

提前2：5因为只有一位神，在神和人中间，只有一位中保，乃是降世为人的基督耶稣。

路加福音2：8-14的经文，其中一段是这样写的：『因今天在大衛的城裡，為你們生了救主，就是主基督。你們要看見一個嬰孩，包着布，臥在馬槽里，那就是記號了。』忽然，有一大隊天兵同那天使讚美上帝說：『在至高之处荣耀归与上帝！在地上平安归与祂所喜悅的人』！耶稣，就是我们的得救记号。哈利路亚！

在這個普天同庆的佳節里，無論我們心中充滿疑問或梦想，让我們重新思考這個大家都熟悉的聖誕故事，看到上帝的大愛，如何藉着約瑟、馬利亞、嬰孩耶穌及宣告救主降生的天使表明出來，這就是聖誕節的真諦。耶稣，舍下了天上的荣华，被钉死十架上，不单是为了我们罪，也是为普天下人的罪，作了挽回祭。这救恩白白的赐给我们，因着天父对我们的大爱（约翰一书2：2）。这就足以让我们献上满心的感恩。

天父啊，在聖誕節来临之際，
願我們對祢所賜下的美好禮物，就是耶稣基督，
有更深的認識，让我在你的话语里，找到爱的真谛。

One Whom You Can Rely

Tuesday, December 22, 2015

Psalm 59:17- “You are my strength, I sing praise to you; you, God, are my fortress, my God on whom I can rely.”
‭
Are you tired and heavy laiden? Are you struggling with the thoughts of defeat and battling with the cycle of condemnation?
A good news to you today is that Jesus is for you and He comes as a savior to save you! The moment when you're out of strength,
look up to Jesus for He is your source. Start to sing praises to Him, magnifying Him in your worst situation, look up to Him in praises,
because the moment when you complain, you will remain; but the moment when you give praise, you will raise! Therefore praising Him enables you to shift your eyes from those cycle of defeat, and look to Jesus on His fullness of grace, and empowering you to reign in life!
Therefore, Run to Jesus today knowing that He is always here embracing you with an opened arms. He is your fortress, He is whom you can rely on; therefore if you're heavy laiden and weary today, come to Jesus and find rest in Him! You will not end up bad, but in Christ He is reliable, and whatever that He has said, He will bring them to accomplishment in your life!

Well Planned Future

安然睡觉

Monday, December 21, 2015

诗 4:8 - 我必安然躺下睡觉，因为独有你耶和华使我安然居住。

朋友们，有多少的夜晚是您不能够安然躺下睡觉的？有多少时候是为了生活上的琐事而不能入睡的？有多少时候是在忧虑明天该如何走而导致失眠的？有多少的黑夜是因为惧怕而睡不着的？有多少时候是被这世上的种种的因素而被缠绕着的？然而，这一切都不是神对我们的旨意。神所赐给我们的是平安的意念，是赐我们丰盛，富足，强健等上好的福分，而不是要我们忧虑的。但是很多时候我们却不晓得神的旨意，总喜欢抓着世上的忧虑不放手。其实圣经里很清楚告诉我们，当把一切的忧虑卸给神，因为祂顾念我们。（彼前 5:7）

经上记着说：你躺下，必不惧怕；你躺卧，睡得香甜。（箴 3:25）我们的主要我们清楚地知道，我们可以在祂里面得享安息，因为在世上纵然有苦难，有各样的挑战和难题，但是祂已经胜了这世界，而我们在祂里面是得胜有余的。主说：凡劳苦担重担的，可以到我这里来，我必使你们得享安息。（太 11:28）因此，我们可以安然居住，不怕祸患，因为那保护我们的必不打盹，也不睡觉，祂是时时刻刻看顾保守我们的主。

今天，在你的生命中有什么事情是导致你不能够安然躺卧睡觉的？是你的事业吗？是你的家庭吗？是你的经济吗？还是你的家庭？然而，这一切都已经在我们主的手中，祂已为我们看顾了。你知道吗？我们所顾念的，我们所看重的，祂比我们更加紧张，只因为祂爱我们胜过一切。祂顾念我们所顾念的；祂看重我们所看重的。所以，若你知道在你的生命中有一个这样爱我们的主，你还在担心什么呢？你还在顾虑什么呢？只管坦然的奔向祂，信靠祂吧！阿门！
