11月29日 温和的舌头折断骨头

士8:1-3
以法莲人对基甸说、你去与米甸人争战、没有招我们同去、为甚么这样待我们呢.他们就与基甸大大地争吵。基甸对他们说、我所行的岂能比你们所行的呢.以法莲拾取剩下的葡萄、不强过亚比以谢所摘的葡萄么。神已将米甸人的两个首领、俄立和西伊伯、交在你们手中.我所行的、岂能比你们所行的呢.基甸说了这话、以法莲人的怒气就消了。
The men of Ephraim said to him, "Why have you treated us this way, that you didn't call us, when you went to fight with Midian?" They rebuked him sharply. He said to them, "What have I now done in comparison with you? Isn't the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer? God has delivered into your hand the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb! What was I able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger was abated toward him, when he had said that.
主耶稣!恒常忍耐太,可以劝动君王。柔和的舌头,能折断骨头。基甸以柔和回应以法莲的无理,化解不必要的争闹。主啊!基甸以和为贵的智慧知识和能力,是我所渴求的,求主为我造一个温柔的心,使我有柔和的舌头,劝动君王,折断骨头。
