4/7/2024 又要立志作安静人

真理生活化

帖前4:9-13

论到弟兄们相爱、不用人写信给你们．因为你们自己蒙了神的教训、叫你们彼此相爱。你们向马其顿全地的众弟兄、固然是这样行、但我劝弟兄们要更加勉励．又要立志作安静人、办自己的事、亲手作工、正如我们从前所吩咐你们的．叫你们可以向外人行事端正、自己也就没有甚么缺乏了。

But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another, for indeed you do it toward all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more; and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you; that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.

主耶稣！我反复思想, 什么是作安静人。我看见, 我们花精神去管别人的事, 却忽略了自己家里的需要。主啊！我明白了, 善行是从家里开始, 彼此相爱, 也是必须要从我们的家开始。我们的家就可以享受到天父的供应, 一无所缺。
