主的小羊
“我们都如羊走迷; 各人偏行己路; 耶和华使我们众人的罪孽都归在他身上。”
以赛亚书 53:6
人大多数自私自利、一意孤行,喜欢明争暗斗、相互残杀,搞得乱七八糟、一片狼藉。其实上帝给人的生活很简单。他说,“跟随我”。“听我的声音,跟紧我。如果你这么做,我就喂养你,照顾你。我会保护你,给你一个温暖的家。” 可惜,人却不听,不由自主偏行己路,稀里糊涂地就落入了狮子的口中。值得感恩的是,耶稣是好牧人,他知道他的羊容易迷失,他宁愿舍命去拯救他们。
今日祷告:
亲爱的耶稣,谢谢祢找回我迷失的灵魂,求祢带领我走祢的义路。阿们。
March 31 – Sheep
All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all.
I S A I A H 5 3 : 6
When people chart their own path, they crisscross and crush one another and create a chaotic, cacophonous confusion to life. God made life so much more simple than that. “Follow me,” he said. “Here’s how: Listen to my voice. Stay close. If you do that, I’ll feed you and take care of you. I’ll defend you and give you a home.” But nope. People just feel a magnetic pull to baaaah their way around boulders and into thickets and wander into the jaws of lions. Thankfully Jesus is the Good Shepherd who knows that his sheep are prone to wander and who is willing to lay down his own life to save them.
Pray for the Day:
Dear Jesus, thank you for bearing my wandering soul on your shoulders.
Lead me in your path today. Amen.
