Jan. 24           Keeping in Step with God.  Bible reading: Galatians 5;16-26   Key verse: Galatians 5:25  1 月 24 日      與上帝同行保持同步.         讀經：加拉太書 5;16-26            鑰節：加拉太書 5:25

                If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.                                                                                    如果我們靠聖靈而活, 就讓我們也靠聖靈行事為人.

Have you ever held someone's hand as you walked along together?  You surely noticed how important it is to maintain the same stride.  You can't walk too slowly and you can't walk too fast, at least not without polling you hand away.                                                                                                                  你有沒有牽別人的手一起走過？ 您肯定注意到保持相同的步伐是多麼重要.  你不能走得太慢, 也不能走得太快, 至少不能把手移開.

     That is what Galations 5:25 is talking about when it says "walk in the Spirit."  The New International Version captures the original Greek flavor of the word walk here: "Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit."  The word picture is one of "walking in line with."                                             這就是加拉太書 5 章 25 節所說的「順著聖靈而行」.  新國際版本捕捉了 “行走” 這個詞, 在原始希臘語的風味：“既然我們靠聖靈而活, 就讓我們與聖靈保持同步.”  圖畫一詞是「走在一條線上」的意思的之一.

     When you are not following your fleshly urges to walk at your own pace,  you feel the direct guidance of the Holy Spirit step by step along the way;  When you are walking in haemony with the Spirit, the fruit of this relationship is evident.  It makes sense that the fruit of the Spirit is the subject of the remaining verse of Galations 5.                                                                                                                    當你不跟隨肉體的衝動, 按照自己的步調行走時, 你會一步一步感受到聖靈的直接引導；當你與聖靈同行時, 這種關係的果子是顯而易見的.  加拉太書 5 章剩下的經文的主題是談及聖靈的果子, 很合理.

       How many of these fruits do you see in your attitudes and behavior --- love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control?  It is truly an awesome list.  As you think through these attributes, remember that they are not the products of a decision to try harder.  The fruits of the Spirit are products of walk with God, a personal relatiohship with Him.  When you keep in step with Him, He keeps your feet on His good path.                                                                                                  從你的態度和行事為人中, 可以在聖靈結的果子 ── 仁愛、喜樂、和平、忍耐、恩慈、良善、信實、溫柔、節制 中看見幾樣？ 這確實是很棒的清單.  當您思考這些屬性時, 請記住, 它們並不是靠您更努力就能決定的.  聖靈的果子是與上帝同行, 與祂建立個人關係後才能決定的產物.  當你與祂保持同行同步時, 上帝就會讓您的腳步走在祂美好的道路上.

                   Let me keep in step with You, O Lord.  Manifest the fruits of Your Spirit in my life.                                 主啊, 讓我與祢同行並保持同步.  在我的生命中彰顯祢聖靈的果子.
