音频

“但我是困苦穷乏的,主仍顾念我;你是帮助我的,搭救我的。神啊,求你不要耽延。” - 诗 40:17

生命中最令人安慰的真理之一就是神眷顾我们。全能的神顾念我们,创造我们的神,也扶持我们。我们生活、动作、存留都在乎这一安慰。

神赐给我们气息和我们所需要的一切。神赐生命给种子和植物,好作我们的食物;神赐给我们日用的饮食和健康;祂甚至给我们的食物调味,让我们细细品味;神保护我们的生命,救我们脱离凶恶;神是我们的创造者、供应者、保护者、救赎者和安慰者。

使徒保罗说:“神既不爱惜自己的儿子,为我们众人舍了,岂不也把万物和他一同白白地赐给我们吗?”(罗 8:32)。我们的生命不会随波逐流,受环境的摆布,我们的生命在那位主宰宇宙的主手中。

知道掌管世界的神掌管着我们的生命,这是何等安慰!神看顾我们,这对不安的灵魂和担重担的心灵来说是极大的保障。祂现在正思念着你,没有忘记你的痛苦和需要。明白了这一点,每一个寻求主的人都会充满喜乐。

祷告

主啊,感谢你的眷顾。我们从你手中领受的远超过我们的所需,好叫我们赞美你,与人分享。奉耶稣的名,阿们。

诗篇 40篇

1我曾耐性等候耶和华,他垂听我的呼求。
2他从祸坑里,从淤泥中,把我拉上来,使我的脚立在磐石上,使我脚步稳当。
3他使我口唱新歌,就是赞美我们神的话。许多人必看见而惧怕,并要倚靠耶和华。
4那倚靠耶和华,不理会狂傲和偏向虚假之辈的,这人便为有福!
5耶和华我的神啊,你所行的奇事,并你向我们所怀的意念甚多,不能向你陈明。若要陈明,其事不可胜数。
6祭物和礼物你不喜悦,你已经开通我的耳朵,燔祭和赎罪祭非你所要。
7那时我说:“看哪,我来了,我的事在经卷上已经记载了。
8我的神啊,我乐意照你的旨意行,你的律法在我心里。”
9我在大会中宣传公义的佳音,我必不止住我的嘴唇,耶和华啊,这是你所知道的。
10我未曾把你的公义藏在心里,我已陈明你的信实和你的救恩,我在大会中未曾隐瞒你的慈爱和诚实。
11耶和华啊,求你不要向我止住你的慈悲,愿你的慈爱和诚实常常保佑我。
12因有无数的祸患围困我,我的罪孽追上了我,使我不能昂首。这罪孽比我的头发还多,我就心寒胆战。
13耶和华啊,求你开恩搭救我!耶和华啊,求你速速帮助我!
14愿那些寻找我要灭我命的一同抱愧蒙羞,愿那些喜悦我受害的退后受辱。
15愿那些对我说“啊哈!啊哈!”的,因羞愧而败亡。
16愿一切寻求你的因你高兴欢喜,愿那些喜爱你救恩的常说:“当尊耶和华为大!”
17但我是困苦穷乏的,主仍顾念我。你是帮助我的,搭救我的,神啊,求你不要耽延!

Happiness In Being Cared For By God

"As for me, I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my help and my deliverer; you are my God, do not delay." - Psalm 40:17

One of the most comforting truths for our lives is the providence of God. The Lord Almighty takes care of us. The same God who created us also sustains us. In this comfort we live and move and have our being.

God is the one who gives us breath and everything we need. God gives life to the seeds and plants we need for food. God gives us our daily bread and good health to enjoy. He even gives flavor to our food so that we can savor it. God is the one who preserves our life and delivers us from evil. The Lord God is our creator, provider, protector, redeemer, and comforter.

The apostle Paul asks, "He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?" (Romans 8:32). Our life does not drift at random, at the mercy of mere circumstances. We are in the hands of the one who controls the universe.

How comforting it is to know that the God who rules the world is in control of our lives! It is a great assurance to troubled souls and burdened hearts to know that God cares for them. He is thinking about you right now and has not forgotten your pain and need. Knowing this, everyone who seeks the Lord can be filled with joy.

Prayer

Sovereign Lord, thank you for your providence. From your hands we receive more than we need, that we may praise you and share with others. In Jesus, Amen.
