“我观看,见有许多的人,没有人能数过来,是从各国、各族、各民、各方来的,站在宝座和羔羊面前。” - 启 7:9

神在祂的宏伟设计中呼唤我们拥抱跨文化交流(cross-cultural connections),庆祝我们当中的多样性。启示录中的异象让我们瞥见了永恒的国度,在那里,来自各个国家、民族,说着各种语言的人们将团结一致地站在宝座前,敬拜我们的主和救主。

跨文化交流让我们体验到神创造的丰富和美丽。当我们与来自不同文化背景的人交流时,我们可以学习、成长、开阔视野。我们会发现造物主慈爱之手所编织的巨大人类织锦。

这也要求我们谦卑、开放,愿意走出自己的舒适区。它要求我们抛开先入为主的观念,欣赏他人的背景和经历。透过真诚的关系,我们可以促进合一,打破隔阂,弥合分歧。

我们效法耶稣的榜样,学会爱人,接受他人本来的样子。这样,我们就会成为和好与合一的使者,向这个支离破碎的世界彰显神的心意。

今天,让我们寻找机会与来自不同文化背景的人接触,倾听、学习并建立有意义的关系。愿我们的生命见证神爱的大能,促进各国人民的合一。

祷告

主啊,我们珍视你多样的创造。求你使用我们来促进合一与和好,彰显你的爱。奉耶稣的名,阿们。

启示录 7:9-12

9此后我观看,见有许多的人,没有人能数过来,是从各国、各族、各民、各方来的,站在宝座和羔羊面前,身穿白衣,手拿棕树枝,
10大声喊着说:“愿救恩归于坐在宝座上我们的神,也归于羔羊!”
11众天使都站在宝座和众长老并四活物的周围,在宝座前面伏于地,敬拜神,
12说:“阿们!颂赞、荣耀、智慧、感谢、尊贵、权柄、大力都归于我们的神,直到永永远远!阿们。”

Cross-cultural Connections

"I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb." - Revelation 7:9

In his grand design God calls us to embrace cross-cultural connections and celebrate the diversity among us. The vision in Revelation reveals a glimpse of the eternal kingdom, where people from every nation, tribe, and language will stand united before the throne, worshiping our Lord and Savior.

Cross-cultural connections allow us to experience the richness and beauty of God's creation. As we interact with people from different cultures, we can learn, grow, and broaden our perspectives. We discover the immense tapestry of humanity, woven together by the Creator's loving hand.

This also requires humility, openness, and a willingness to step out of our comfort zones. It calls us to set aside preconceived notions and to appreciate the backgrounds and experiences of others. Through genuine relationships, we can foster unity, break down barriers, and bridge gaps that divide us.

Following Jesus' example, we learn to love and accept others as they are. Doing so, we become ambassadors of reconciliation and unity, reflecting the heart of God to a fragmented world.

Today let's seek opportunities to engage with individuals from different cultures, listening, learning, and building meaningful relationships. And may our lives bear witness to the power of God's love, fostering unity among all peoples.

Prayer

Lord, we cherish your diverse creation. Use us for unity and reconciliation, reflecting your love. In Jesus, Amen.
