幸福的秘訣談知足()

终日恩待人,不仅有永生的赏赐,而且现在也会过得很好。上帝会看顾,祂会供应一切的需要。这并不是说会变得很富足,但是会过得好,因为无论拥有什么都会感到满足。因为耶稣对這樣的人們来说是那么的巨大,那么的伟大。

保羅什么都没有,但是他过得很好。他也可以变得很富有。但是我们并不需要这些东西。要放手,要像这样活着。这是最稳妥的活法,因为你不知道明天你是否还能活在这个世界上。

为耶稣奉献一切的一生是最明智的一生, 即使是困难的时候,也要跟随基督,你会发现他的恩典真的是够你用.

 如果你想要找一个耶稣让你能过你想要的生活,那么你可以重新创造一个耶稣。但是时不时读读圣经,当你读完一部福音书,你会看到耶稣要你过的那种生活的结局是什么样的。

 我们的一生要比想象的短暂很多,我们要为耶稣过一个疯狂的人生。要为自己缘故读读圣经,但是不要为了满足自己的欲望来解释经文。

 当努力跟随耶穌的时候,我发现真的是施比受更有福;当你顺服耶稣的时候,你就开始明白他所说的话当我不同意他的说法时,我仍然要相信他是对的。这才是明智的做法。

 想想你是否给自己造了一个中产阶级的耶稣或是一个上层阶级的耶稣,因为那样的耶稣更合适你。因为到最后你发现这样的耶稣根本就不存在。

 耶稣说:“不要为明天忧虑。要先求神的国。”我希望你能跟着圣灵走,无论他引领你去哪里。无论其他的人理解还是不理解。

 我们的一生,要能给个说法。

 

 What do you need to be happy?  

 Because when you live a life of giving, not only is there the eternal reward, but you will be fine now. You'll be taken care of. God's going to take care of your needs.

 That doesn't mean they're going to be rich, but they're going to be fine, because they'll be content no matter what they have. Because Jesus is that huge to them; Jesus is that great to them.

 That's biblical Christianity: you bet it all in this life, and then you start seeing God be faithful when he says, "Whatever you sacrifice, I'll give you a hundred times that, in this life and the life to come."

Follow Christ even when it's difficult, and you'll find that he is enough.

 There are things about Jesus that I as a human being do not like. I do not like some of his teachings. So in the core of my being, I know what he says is true and good. And when he and I disagree, I assume he's right. It's a smart way to go.
