神的意念—-以賽亞書55:9［天怎樣高過地, 照樣, 我的道路高過你們的道路, 我的意念高過你們的意念.］［故事］有一天, 一位女士看見一隻鳥兒, 飛到她的窗邊的低處築巢, 她很擔心築巢得那麼低, 恐怕會有什麼不測之事發生. 她每次看見小鳥忙著築巢時, 就會跟它說”小鳥啊！築高一點吧！” 可是每次都令她既失望又擔憂. 後來鳥巢終於築成了. 母鳥在其中生蛋並孵出小鳥. 每早晨醒過來, 這位女士都會望望窗外, 看看鳥巢還在不在. 有一天, 當她醒來, 發現窗上除了零亂的羽毛外空無一物. 她想一定是昨晚貓來抓走母鳥和小鳥了. 事實上. 她如果及早拆掉鳥巢, 雖然看似殘忍, 但可悲的事就不會發生了.][默想］神就是常常如此對待我們, 就在事情還沒發展到無法挽救之前, 就先挪去某些東西, 可能當時我們會傷心, 埋怨, 但都是為了我們的好處.][禱告］愛我們的天父, 祢是無所不知的神, 祢知曉我們的一切, 包括未來將會發生在我們身上的事. 無論禍福, 祢都顧念和保守. 雖然我們不能明白祢的心思和作為. 求祢提醒我們, 祢的意念高過我們的意念, 祢的道路高過我們的道路. 求祢幫助我們存感恩的心, 信靠順服, 最終必得知祢的美意. 禱告是奉主耶穌基督的名, 誠心所願, 阿們！
God’s Thoughts – Isaiah 55:9 [As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.] [Story] One day, a woman She saw a bird flying to build a nest low by her window. She was worried that something bad might happen if the nest was built so low. Every time she saw a bird busy building a nest, she would She told it, “Little bird! Build it higher!” But every time she was disappointed and worried. Later, the bird’s nest was finally built. The mother bird laid eggs in it and hatched the chicks. Every morning when she woke up, this The lady would look out the window to see if the bird’s nest was still there. One day, when she woke up, she found that there was nothing on the window except scattered feathers. She thought the cat must have come and snatched the mother bird and its chicks last night. . In fact, if she had demolished the nest as early as possible, although it may seem cruel, the sad thing would not have happened.] [Meditation] God often treats us like this, just before things develop to the point where they cannot be saved. Let’s remove certain things first. We may be sad and complain at the time, but it is all for our benefit.] [Prayer] Heavenly Father who loves us, you are the omniscient God, you know everything about us, including the future. Whatever may happen to us, you will care about and protect us, whether good or bad. Although we cannot understand your thoughts and deeds, please remind us that your thoughts are higher than our thoughts and your ways are higher than our ways. . Please help us to be grateful, trust and obey, and we will eventually know your good will. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, sincerely, Amen!
