小别胜新婚

Distance Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

你们若真与基督一同复活，就当求在上面的事；那里有基督坐在神的右边。

——西3:1

. . . set your sights on the rich treasures and joys of heaven . . .

—Colossians 3:1 (TLB)

你曾经有没有跟爱人分离过，三四个月不见男朋友或者女朋友，等待着再次相见？我曾经与妻子分开一段时间，当我们再次见面又像蜜月一般甜蜜。在那个充满荣耀的日子，基督再来也像这样一般甜蜜。我们将在空中见到他，就像两个爱人再次相见，我们多么期待这天来临啊！

Have you ever been separated from someone you love? A boyfriend or girlfriend whom you have not seen in three or four months? Wait until you see each other! My wife and I have said goodbyes to each other; but when we met again, it was a honeymoon all over again. And that is what it will be like on that glorious day when Jesus Christ comes. We will be caught up in the air to meet Him, and it will be like two lovers coming together. What hope we have!

今日祷告

主啊，当你再来的时候，我们内心是多么欢呼。我们带着期待，热烈地盼望那荣耀的日子到来。

Prayer for the day
Lord Jesus, when You come again, how many hearts will rejoice. Until then, with expectant anticipation I eagerly wait for that glorious day!
