關愛別人—-腓立比書2:4[各人不要單顧自己的事, 也要顧別人的事.] [故事]-個星期天亨利正要去教會聚會, 出門碰見他的隣居準備去打高爾夫球.  他的鄰居說”亨利, 今天和我一起去打高爾夫球吧!” 亨利堅決回答說”我每個主日都要去聚會的.” 過了一會, 那位鄰居說”亨利, 你知道嗎?我常想到你的教會聚會.  我也很羨慕你的始終如一.  但我已邀你和我去打高爾夫球不只七, 八次了, 你卻從來沒有邀我去你的教會聚會.” 這真是令人驚訝的事. [思考]你有否這樣的經歷?我們到教會不是例行公事, 邀請別人也不要怕受拒絕. 而是為他禱告, 不厭其煩的邀請他們來聚會.[禱告]慈愛仁愛的天父, 祢深愛世人, 願他們都得永生, 不願有一人沉淪. 求主提醒我們, 不要單顧自己的事, 也要關顧和愛護我們周圍的人, 將他們帶到祢的面前.  我們為家人. 朋友和鄰居禱告, 求聖靈感動他們的心.  感謝主, 當我們顧別人的同時, 我們自己也得到造就. 得祢的喜悅也榮耀祢的聖名.  禱告是奉主耶穌基督的名, 阿們!

Caring for others – Philippians 2:4 [Each of you should not mind your own interests alone, but also mind the interests of others.] [Story] – One Sunday, Henry was going to a church meeting. When he went out, he met his neighbor who was about to go. Playing golf. His neighbor said, “Henry, come play golf with me today!” Henry replied firmly, “I go to the party every Sunday.” After a while, the neighbor said, “Henry. , you know what? I often think about your church services. I also envy your consistency. But I have invited you and I to play golf more than seven or eight times, and you have never invited me to your church. Party.” This is really surprising. [Thinking] Have you ever had this experience? We go to church not as a routine matter, and we don’t need to be afraid of rejection when inviting others. Instead, we pray for them and take the trouble to invite them to the gathering. [Prayer] Loving and loving Heavenly Father, you love the world deeply and wish that they all have eternal life. You don’t want them to have eternal life. One person perishes. Ask the Lord to remind us not to only care about our own affairs, but also to care and love the people around us and bring them to You. We pray for our family, friends and neighbors, and ask the Holy Spirit to touch their hearts. Thank you Lord, when we care for others, we ourselves are also edified. To please you and glorify your holy name. This prayer is in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!
