双语灵修（葛培理牧师）：3月10日 路上的光

3月10日

路上的光

你的话是我脚前的灯，路上的光。

诗篇119:105

我们必须扎根于圣经。作为基督徒，我们只有一个权威，一个指南，那就是神的话语。

亚伯拉罕·林肯写信给朋友时说：“阅读圣经对我很有益处，你可以在里面找到所有人生的答案，以你所能做到的理性和信心的平衡来读整本圣经，你将成为一个更好的人。”

柯勒律治（Coleridge）说，他相信圣经是神的话语。他说：“圣经找到了我。”

约翰班扬说：“如果你需要鼓励，请将那些应许存在心里。”

马丁路德说：“在圣经里，即使小雏菊也会变成一片草地。”

在这个不确定的世界里，圣经是我们唯一确定的指南。

伟大的领袖们都把圣经作为主要的书籍和可靠的指南。

前国际扶轮社社长赫伯特·J·泰勒（Herbert J.Taylor）告诉我，他的每一天都是从大声朗读《登山宝训》开始的。

罗纳德·里根总统非常崇奉《圣经》，他把1984年定为“圣经年”。

我们每天都应该从阅读圣经开始，晚上以神的话语结束，让神赐给我们足够的智慧。让神的话语成为我们盼望的坚实根基，成为滋养我们灵魂的生命支柱，让它成为圣灵的宝剑，斩断我们生命中的邪恶，按照神的形象和样式塑造我们。

今日祷告：

天父，您的话是我脚前的灯，路上的光。愿你不仅照亮我的道路，也照亮其他信徒的道路，并且让那些还不认识你的人归向你；奉耶稣的名，阿们。

A LAMP AND A LIGHT

Your word is a lamp to guide me and a light for my path.Psalm 119:105 TEV

We must become grounded in the Bible.As Christians,we have only one authority,one compass:the Word of God.

In a letter to a friend,Abraham Lincoln said,“I am profitable engaged in reading the Bible.Take all of this Book upon reason that you can and the balance upon faith,and you will live and die a better man.”

Coleridge said he believed the Bible to be the Word or God because,as he put it,“It finds me.”

“If you want encouragement,”John Bunyan wrote,“entertain the promises.”

Martin Luther said,“In Scriptures,even the little daisy becomes a meadow.”

The Bible is our one sure guide in an unsure world.

Great leaders have made it their chief Book and their reliable guide.Herbert J.Taylor,formerly international president of Rotary,told me that he began each day by reading the Sermon on the Mount aloud.President Ronald Reagan revered the Bible so much that he proclaimed 1984 the“year of the Bible.”

We should begin the day with the Book,and as it comes to a close let the Word speak its wisdom to our souls.Let it be the firm foundation upon which our hope is built.Let it be the Staff of Life upon which your spirit is nourished.Let it be the Sword of the Spirit which cuts away the evil of our lives and fashions us in His image and likeness.

Pray for the Day:

Father,Your word is a lamp to my feed and a light to my path.I pray that You will illuminate not only my path but those of other believers,and also reveal Yourself to those that do not yet know You;in Jesus’Name,Amen.
