622 中翻英 (322) God is love. 上帝就是愛. 12/25/2023

622 中翻英 (322)                God is love.                        上帝就是愛.                                                  12/25/2023

十二月二十五日

「那城里有個寡婦,常到他那里說,我有一個對頭,求你給我伸冤。」                                          (路   18:3   新國際版

你所愛的人在哪里,那里就變成可愛的。你所愛的人在哪里,那里才是樂土。祂不在這里了,所以,我的心是一個寡婦的心,這世界于我,不過是一個空白了。所以我們能不被世界吸住,并非因為世界不可愛。       

在稠人廣眾中,我感覺孤單,因為祂不在這里了。在离群獨處時,我心情火熱,因為我想念到有祂。當我徘徊海濱,觀浪花,听濤聲,我不孤單,我不岑寂,因為祂安慰了我。弟兄姊妹們,在這世界,也許是許多東西會吸住你,但主若充滿了,那些就算不得什么了。      祂在這世界,是被人殺死,祂所留下的,不過是一個十字架,一個空洞的墳墓。我的主已經死了,所以我是一個寡婦。這世界不是不好,也不是不可愛,乃是因為祂不在這里了。弟兄姊妹們,我們在世上真是一個寡婦的地位。我們的主,不在這地上了,所以世界于我,就成為不可愛的了。

“There was a widow in that city who often came to him, saying, I have an enemy, please give me justice.” (Luke 18:3 NIV)

Wherever your beloved is, there becomes loving place. Wherever the one you love is, that is the paradise. He is no longer here, so my  heart is  like a widow's heart, and this world is just like a empty  spot to me.  Therefore,   we are not attracted by the world that is not because the world is unlovable.

I feel alone in the crowd because He is no longer here. When I'm alone with others, my heart burns because I miss Him. When I wander on the beach, watching the waves and listening to the sound of the waves, I am not alone or calm, because He comforts me. Brothers and sisters, in this world, you may be attracted by many things, but if you are filled with the Lord, those things will be nothing.

In this world, He was killed by others, and all He left behind was nothing more than a cross and an empty tomb. My Lord is dead, so I am a widow. This world is not bad or unlovable, but it is because He is no longer here. Brothers and sisters, we are truly in a widow's position in this world. Our Lord is no longer on this earth, so the world has become unlovable to me.
