披戴基督
总要披戴主耶稣基督,不要为肉体安排,去放纵私欲。
罗马书 13:14
看看在镜子里面的自己。你要怎样穿着?你是否在发愁今天早上穿什么?你是否在乎自己的衣着打扮?你是否满意自己的时尚选择?日复一日地站在镜子前,决定穿什么衣服才最合适,这样是不是很麻烦?有些人出门之前要换好几套才满意。据说苹果公司的创始人乔布斯为了避开这样的烦恼,决定只穿一种款式的衣服。
在当今的文化中,你的穿着的确体现你的身份。衬衫起皱、款式老旧,的确很丢面子。但是,有一套衣服,永远不会陈旧、不会难看、不会让你觉得低俗。这衣服就是:耶稣基督。当你穿上它,你会觉得比富翁还要富有。耶稣不一定让你看上去入时,但是他总让你显得很棒!
今日祷告:
主耶稣,让别人看见我的时候,就如看见你的形象。阿们。
April 27 – Clothe Yourself
Instead, clothe yourself with the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. And don’t let yourself think about ways to indulge your evil desires.
R OMA N S 1 3 : 1 4
Look at yourself in front of a mirror. What are you wearing? Did you have trouble deciding what to put on this morning? How do you feel about how you look? Are you happy with the fashion option you chose? Isn’t it hard to stand in front of the mirror day after day and think that what you are wearing is perfect? Some people change multiple times before heading out of their room. To avoid the wear and tear of deciding what to wear, Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, famously decided to use only one style of clothing.
In this culture, what you wear reflects who you are in many ways. So that wrinkle in the shirt or that out-of-style fashion pattern can feel annoying. But there is one set of clothes that never fades, never looks bad, and never makes you feel below average. When you put on Jesus you feel like a million bucks— or more. Jesus may not always be “in style,” but he always looks great on you.
Pray for the Day:
Lord Jesus, when people see me, let them notice your characteristics. Amen.
