责无旁贷
“我今日所吩咐你的话都要记在心上, 也要殷勤教训你的儿女。无论你坐在家里,行在路上,躺下,起来,都要谈论。 也要系在手上为记号,戴在额上为经文; 又要写在你房屋的门框上,并你的城门上。”
申命记 6:6-9
有一件最有意义的事情你不能不做的,就是帮助下一代人认识、跟随耶稣。 上帝希望我们在生活中的时时处处都能有意识地与孩子们分享我们的信仰。不管是对你自己的孩子,还是对你的侄子侄女,或者只是对教会里的孩子,分享福音是我们每个人的使命。跟随耶稣不仅仅是一个礼拜天早上的活动。平时在家里、在上班的路上、睡觉前晚祷的时候、或是早饭前,我们都应该效法耶稣,向年轻人表明我们的信仰。无论我们做什么,无论我们在哪里,都是一个在耶稣里成长的机会,都可以用以激励下一代也来跟随他。
今日祷告:
亲爱的耶稣,请帮助我知道如何与孩子们分享福音来跟随你。让我参与一项教导孩童的福音事工。 阿们。
April 20 – Teach Kids
And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
D E U T E RONOMY 6 : 6 – 9
One of the greatest differences you could make is to help the next generation to follow Jesus. God wants us to be intentional about sharing faith with kids in every circumstance of our lives. Whether you have kids of your own, you have a niece or a nephew, or you are just around kids at
church, the call to share faith with children is given to everyone. Following Jesus is not just a Sunday-morning activity. We follow him and demonstrate our faith to younger people when we are hanging out at home, commuting to work, praying before bedtime, or eating breakfast in
the morning. Everything we do and everywhere we are is an opportunity to grow in Jesus and inspire younger people to do the same.
Pray for the Day:
Dear Jesus, help me figure out how I could share with some kids what it means to follow you. Connect me with a local ministry that teaches children about you. Amen.
