5月9日
天天跟随
“他们天天同心合意恒切地在殿里,且在家中擘饼,存着欢喜、诚实的心用饭, 赞美上帝,得众民的喜爱。主将得救的人天天加给他们。”
使徒行传 2:46-47
基督徒的信仰生活从来都不应该只限于礼拜天的早晨,或者只限于唱诗和听道。这些固然很好,但那只是跟随耶稣的一部分而已。基督信仰最真正的形式包括,一周中的每天都要敬拜上帝、家庭擘饼聚餐,在社会中活出见证。
人们时时处处保持这样的生活方式,自然会鼓励其他人想要加入教会。基督信仰的影响力,不在于每个星期天的礼拜或者季节性的布道会,而在于基督徒每日的跟随和实践,活出基督的样式。它就体现在我们的日常生活中。
今日祷告:
主耶稣,求你活在我的生命里,天天都在我的里面。阿们。
May 9 – Seven Days a Week
They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity—all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship those who were being saved.
A C T S 2 : 4 6 – 4 7
The Christian faith was never supposed to be limited to Sunday mornings. Neither was it considered to be just singing and sermons. Those are good, but they are just part of following Jesus. Christianity, in its truest form, involves followers of Jesus gathering to worship God every day of the week, gathering in homes to share meals and communion, and living respectfully and supportively in society.
This sort of lifestyle, saturated in the very way people live, naturally encourages others to want to be a part of church. The difference maker in this pattern of faith is not the weekly service or the seasonal outreach event. The difference maker in this pattern is the everyday practice of following Jesus. It simply works in the ordinary routines of life.
Pray for the Day:
Lord Jesus, be alive in me today and every day this next week. Amen.
