QT:在神話語中得到恢復的復活盼望
(路加福音24:13—24:35)
[生命泉源]
24:13 — | 正當那日,門徒中有兩個人往一個村子去;這村子名叫以馬忤斯,離耶路撒冷約有二十五里。 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. |
24:14 — | 他們彼此談論所遇見的這一切事。 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. |
24:15 — | 正談論相問的時候,耶穌親自就近他們,和他們同行; As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; |
24:16 — | 只是他們的眼睛迷糊了,不認識他。 but they were kept from recognizing him. |
24:17 — | 耶穌對他們說:「你們走路彼此談論的是甚麼事呢?」他們就站住,臉上帶著愁容。 He asked them, "What are you discussing together as you walk along?" They stood still, their faces downcast. |
24:18 — | 二人中有一個名叫革流巴的回答說:「你在耶路撒冷作客,還不知道這幾天在那裏所出的事麼?」 One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, "Are you only a visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days?" |
24:19 — | 耶穌說:「甚麼事呢?」他們說:「就是拿撒勒人耶穌的事。他是個先知,在神和眾百姓面前,說話行事都有大能。 "What things?" he asked. "About Jesus of Nazareth," they replied. "He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. |
24:20 — | 祭司長和和我們的官府竟把他解去,定了死罪,釘在十字架上。 The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; |
24:21 — | 但我們素來所盼望、要贖以色列民的就是他!不但如此,而且這事成就,現在巳經三天了。 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place. |
24:22 — | 再者,我們中間有幾個婦女使我們驚奇;他們清早到了墳墓那裏, In addition, some of our women amazed us. They went to the tomb early this morning |
24:23 — | 不見他的身體,就回來告訴我們,說看見了天使顯現,說他活了。 but didn't find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. |
24:24 — | 又有我們的幾個人往墳墓那裏去,所遇見的正如婦女們所說的,只是沒有看見他。」 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see." |
24:25 — | 耶穌對他們說:「無知的人哪,先知所說的一切話,你們的心信得太遲鈍了。 He said to them, "How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! |
24:26 — | 基督這樣受害,又進入他的榮耀,豈不是應當的麼?」 Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?" |
24:27 — | 於是從摩西和眾先知起,凡經上所指著自己的話都給他們講解明白了。 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself. |
24:28 — | 將近他們所去的村子,耶穌好像還要往前行, As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus acted as if he were going farther. |
24:29 — | 他們卻強留他,說:「時候晚了,日頭巳經平西了,請你同我們住下吧!」耶穌就進去,要同他們住下。 But they urged him strongly, "Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over." So he went in to stay with them. |
24:30 — | 到了坐席的時候,耶穌拿起餅來,祝謝了,擘開,遞給他們。 When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. |
24:31 — | 他們的眼睛明亮了,這纔認出他來。忽然耶穌不見了。 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. |
24:32 — | 他們彼此說:「在路上,他和我們說話,給我們講解聖經的時候,我們的心豈不是火熱的麼?」 They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?" |
24:33 — | 他們就立時起身,回耶路撒冷去,正遇見十一個使徒和他們的同人聚集在一處, They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together |
24:34 — | 說:「主果然復活,巳經現給西門看了。」 and saying, "It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon." |
24:35 — | 兩個人就把路上所遇見,和擘餅的時候怎麼被他們認出來的事,都述說了一遍。 Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread. |
省 思 語— | 被固有觀念或先入為主的觀念框住,就很難發揮屬靈的分辨力。偏見會導致懷疑,妨礙真正的信心。 |
省 思 語— | 若能不固執己見、敞開心門,有時也會得到意想不到的新領悟。頑固與剛硬的心不會帶來任何改變,捨己才是接受聖靈引導的道路。 |
省 思 語— | 耶穌並不會施行神蹟來一下子改變這兩個門徒的心,讓他們相信復活的奇蹟,而是一路與他們同行,為他們講解先知關於十字架與復活的預言。抓住神的話語就是最大的奇蹟。 |
[我的省思]
自從認識主以來,聽過不知道多少的見證,聽過不知道多少的神蹟奇事,常常心裡想:「好好喔!我都沒有!」甚至會想:「主啊!祢是不是不愛我?是不是沒注意到我?是不是忘了我?所以未曾降下神蹟奇事在我的生命當中,甚至在我渴望的時候都未曾應允我。」所以,我心裡有了埋怨。
看見今天QT的內容,「耶穌並不會施行神蹟來一下子改變這兩個門徒的心,讓他們相信復活的奇蹟。而是一路與他們同行,為他們講解先知關於十字架與復活的預言。」主啊!願我心裡的埋怨已挪去,謝謝祢讓我明白,其實祢一路都與我同行,要讓我明白更多你的真理。而我所渴望的神蹟,便要從祢的話語裡得著,只要我能緊緊抓住!感謝主!
所以,「頑固與剛硬的心不會帶來任何改變,捨己才是接受聖靈引導的道路。」感謝主,祢知道我渴望自己改變,祢提醒我應當捨己,與祢同受十字架的苦,倒空自己,來接受聖靈引導的道路!感謝主!讚美主!哈利路亞!我當捨己!
[今日禱告]
主啊!謝謝祢讓我知道,其實祢一直都與我同行,其實祢一直都知道我的渴望,但祢也希望我自己能緊緊抓住祢的話語,捨己而行出神蹟!阿門!
主啊!謝謝祢!有祢在我們家中,使我們這個家能有很好的成長與關係。
主啊!求祢憐憫我的父母,求祢賜下平安與喜樂到達他們的心中,使他們不要受撒旦的綑綁、為金錢所苦,求祢破碎剛硬的心、撼動頑強的堅持,進到他們裡面,成為他們的盼望。
主啊!感謝祢次給我和國賢一個可愛的孩子詠晴,每天都帶給我們新的感動與喜悅,求祢賜下保惠師看顧保守她,賜下聖靈指引她,願她的成長能得祢喜悅、合祢心意。
感謝讚美主,一切榮耀都歸於主,孩子這樣感謝、禱告都是奉主耶穌基督的聖名祈求,阿門!
