2月24日 真理能叫人脱离困苦

撒下12:19-23
大卫见臣仆彼此低声说话、就知道孩子死了.问臣仆说、孩子死了么.他们说、死了。大卫就从地上起来、沐浴、抹膏、换了衣裳.进耶和华的殿敬拜.然后回宫.吩咐人摆饭、他便吃了。臣仆问他说、你所行的是甚么意思.孩子活着的时候、你禁食哭泣.孩子死了、你倒起来吃饭。大卫说、孩子还活着、我禁食哭泣、因为我想、或者耶和华怜恤我、使孩子不死、也未可知。孩子死了我何必禁食.我岂能使他返回呢。我必往他那里去、他却不能回我这里来。
But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" They said, "He is dead." Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the house of Yahweh, and worshiped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he ate. Then his servants said to him, "What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive; but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread." He said, "While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, 'Who knows whether Yahweh will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?' But now he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me."
主耶稣!大卫王认罪,悔改,为儿子病危禁食祷告,结果儿子却病死,但是,大卫王明白"死"的真理,人死亡只是地上的分离,在天上必再见面。主啊!真理可以叫人得安慰,得医治,得自由,得永生。我渴慕更多认识真理,愿我一生的生活,作息都不离真理。
