约翰福⾳ 13:3 耶稣知道⽗已将万有交在祂⼿⾥,且知道⾃ ⼰是从神出来的,⼜要归到神那⾥去,(现代标点和合本)
John 13:3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God, (NKJV)
这段经⽂中有⼀个重要的原则,是我们在⾛⼈⽣时需要明⽩的。仔细观察耶稣在这段经⽂中的姿态和态度:祂知道⽗已将万有交在祂⼿⾥。我们当中有多少⼈知道⽗神已将⼀切祝福交到我们⼿中了呢?⽆论你正在策划什么,是关乎你的家庭、⼯作还是⽣意,你的姿态是否知道你的阿爸天⽗已将万有交在你⼿⾥了? 主耶稣也知道祂是从⽗神⽽来的,并且祂将要归到⽗神那⾥去。祂在世上所做的⼀切都不是为了⾃⼰,⽽是为了⽗。祂的⼀⽣都不是关于祂⾃⼰,⽽是关乎⽗。让我们也持守这样的姿态,活着乃不是单为⾃⼰,乃是关 乎神,是为了祂的荣耀。因为万有都是本于 祂、依靠祂、归于祂!阿们!
There is an important principle in this passage for us to know in our walk in life. Look at Jesus’ posture in this passage. He knew that the Father had given all things into His hands. How many of us know that God has already given all blessings into our hands? Whatever task you are doing, be it concerning your family, your work, or your business, do you know that your Abba Father has already given all things into your hands? Jesus also knew that He came from God and that He was going back to God. Whatever He did on earth was not for Himself but for His Father. His whole life was not about Him but it was all about God. Let us also have this posture and live our life not for ourselves but for His glory, for from Him and to Him and through Him are all things.
