看到我们的需要

Seeing Our Need

“愚顽人心里说：没有神。他们都是邪恶，行了可憎恶的罪孽；没有一个人行善。”

——诗53:1

Only a fool would say to himself, ‘There is no God.’ And why does he say it? Because of his wicked heart, his dark and evil deeds. His life is corroded with sin.
—Psalm 53:1 (TLB)

我们生活在太空里这个小小的像尘埃一样的星球上，就像一只小蚂蚁一样。我们取得博士学位，我们在舞台上昂首阔步说，“嗯，我不知道是否有上帝。“但我们甚至无法控制自己。 我们不能持守住不让自己膨胀。我们不能防止继续制造能够毁灭世界的核武器。我们无法阻止彼此仇恨，互相打架，互相残杀。我们不能防止相互偷盗。我们无法阻止死亡，因为我们都会死。难怪《圣经》说：“愚顽人心里说，没有神，“因为一个人否认神的存在就是个愚蠢的人。

We live like a little ant on this little speck of dust out in space. We get a Ph.D. degree and we strut across the stage and say, “Well, I don’t know whether or not there is a God.” And we can’t even control ourselves. We can’t even keep from blowing ourselves apart. We can’t even keep from manufacturing nuclear weapons that could destroy the world. We can’t even keep from hating each other, and fighting with each other, and killing each other. We can’t even keep from stealing from each other. We can’t even keep from dying, because all of us are going to die. No wonder the Bible says, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God,” because a man that would deny the existence of God is a fool.

每日祷告

全能的上帝，帮助我以这样的方式生活，当我告诉别人你的存在时，他们就会被吸引认识你并接受你。

Prayer for the day

Almighty God, help me to live in such a way, that when I tell others of Your existence, they will be drawn to acknowledge and receive You.
