「因為萬有都是本於他,倚靠他,歸於他。願榮耀歸給他,直到永遠。阿們!」——羅11:36
Everything comes from God alone. Everything lives by his power, and everything is for his glory. To him be glory evermore.—Romans 11:36 (TLB)
你有沒有想過為什麼上帝把我們放在這個星球上?我們在這裡的目的是什麼? 因為上帝就是愛。其他星球上也可能存在生命,但我相信人類是唯一按照上帝的形象被創造的,他是按照神的形象所造的。上帝在這個星球上創造生命,因為這個星球是「小上帝」,上帝可以愛他,他也會以愛回應上帝。實實在在的說,上帝是孤獨的,他希望愛人,也需要人去愛他。這聽起來不可思議,但《聖經》告訴我們,上帝是愛,所以他創造這個星球,並讓我們住在這個星球上。
Have you ever wondered why God placed us on this planet? What our purpose is in being here? It is because God is love. There may be life on other planets, but I believe man is unique in the sense that he was created in the image of God. God created on this planet as it were 「little gods」 whom He could love and who would return love to Him. Reverently speaking, God was lonely. He wanted someone to love and who would return love to Him. That sounds incredible, but the Bible tells us that God loved, and so He created and put us on this planet.
每日禱告:
神聖之主,我愛你!你天天給我的靈魂帶來喜樂。
Freely I love You, divine God, who daily brings joy to my soul.
