找回自己—-歌羅西書3:23-24［無論做甚麼, 都要從心裏做, 像是給主做的, 不是給人做的. 因你們知道從主那裏必得著基業為賞賜, 你們所事奉的乃是主基督.］［故事］有一個部門主管, 總是害怕被人議論他的不是, 有一天就稱病躲在家裏. 妻子見狀, 便一隻腳穿著白襪子, 另一隻穿著黃襪子, 硬拉著他出門逛街. 後來, 妻子問他有人發現她襪子不對稱嗎？ 他說”大家不是低頭看手機. 就是和身旁的人談笑, 沒人在意妳的襪子啦！” 說完這句話, 他突然明白了, 其實, 他人也未必在意和關心自己, 反而是自己太在意他人的眼光而常常患得患失. ［思考］為別人而活, 便常常會焦慮, 甚至迷失方向; 為主而活, 行在正道上, 活出美好的自己. 這也是神的旨意. ［禱告］愛我們的天父上帝, 祢是按照自己的形象創造我們, 祢看我們是美好的, 感謝祢. 求祢做我們生命的主宰, 引領我們當行的路, 免得我們太過在意別人對我們的看法, 或他人的期盼而生活在困惑中. 求祢幫助我們無論做什麼, 都是為祢而做, 都能討祢的喜悅, 我們的生命就有意義和價值. 禱告是奉主耶穌基督的名, 阿們！
Find yourself – Colossians 3:23-24 [Whatever you do, work heartily, as to the Lord, not to men. For you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as your reward, you It is the Lord Christ whom we serve.] [Story] There was a department manager who was always afraid of being criticized for his faults. One day he claimed to be sick and hid at home. When his wife saw this, she wore a white sock on one foot and a white sock on the other. Wearing only yellow socks, she forced him to go shopping. Later, his wife asked him if anyone noticed that her socks were asymmetrical. He said, “Everyone is either looking down at their phones or talking and laughing with the people around them. No one cares about your socks!” After saying this, he suddenly understood that in fact, others may not care about him, but rather I care too much about other people’s opinions and often worry about gains and losses. [Thinking] If you live for others, you will often feel anxious and even lose your way; live for the Lord, walk on the right path, and live a good life. This is also God’s will. [ Prayer] Heavenly Father God who loves us, you created us in your own image, and you see us as beautiful. Thank you. Please be the master of our lives and guide us in the path we should take, lest we care too much about others’ treatment of us. We live in confusion because of our opinions or the expectations of others. Please help us to do whatever we do for you and to please you so that our lives will have meaning and value. Prayer is to the Lord Jesus In the name of Christ, Amen!
