【双语灵修】放下忧虑

腓立比书 4:6-7 3月26日

应当一无挂虑，只要凡事藉着祷告、祈求和感谢，将你们所要的告诉神。神所赐出人意外的平安，必在基督耶稣里保守你们的心怀意念。

放下忧虑

“应当一无挂虑，只要凡事藉着祷告、祈求和感谢，将你们所要的告诉神。” -腓 4:6

我年轻的时候，常常被忧虑所困扰。无论是关乎学业、人际关系，还是未来，我的思绪总是不停地与焦虑对抗。 当我准备一场重要考试的时候，压力大得让我喘不过气来，而且睡不着觉，也无法集中精神。但有一天晚上，一位挚友提醒我《腓立比书》4章6-7节，这促使我把忧虑转化为祷告，并相信神会处理余下的事情。 忧虑很容易成为压在我们身上的重担，影响我们的健康、人际关系和幸福感。它会偷走我们的快乐，使我们无法充分体验当下。 当我们把忧虑交给神时，就是承认祂掌管一切，并且我们全心全意信靠祂。这种交托的举动能让我们经历到一种超越人所能理解的平安。神的平安守护着我们的心思和意念，保护我们免受焦虑的毒害。 放下忧虑并非总是易事，需要我们有意识地努力将焦点从自己的问题上，转移到神的应许上，这意味着选择相信，神要比我们所面临的任何境况都大。就我的经历而言，每次我选择相信神而不去忧虑时，祂都以我意想不到的方式供应我。

祷告

主啊，求祢帮助我放下忧虑去相信祢。求祢用祢的平安充满我的心，并提醒我祢是信实的。奉耶稣的名，阿们。

LETTING GO OF WORRY

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." - Philippians 4:6

When I was younger, I was often consumed by worry. Whether it had to do with school, relationships, or the future, my mind was constantly racing with anxiety.

When I was preparing for an important exam, the stress would be overwhelming, and I couldn’t sleep or focus. But one evening a trusted friend reminded me of Philippians 4:6-7. This encouraged me to turn my worries into prayers and to trust that God would take care of the rest.

Worry can easily become a burden that weighs us down, affecting our health, relationships, and well-being. It can steal our joy and keep us from fully experiencing the present.

When we present our worries to God, we acknowledge that he is in control and that we trust him with our lives. This act of surrender allows us to experience his peace, which goes beyond human understanding. God’s peace guards our hearts and minds, protecting us from the harmful effects of anxiety.

Letting go of worry is not always easy. It requires a conscious effort to shift our focus from our problems to God’s promises. It means choosing to trust that God is bigger than any situation we face. From my experiences I can say that every time I have chosen to trust God instead of worrying, he has provided for me in ways I did not imagine.

Lord, help me to let go of my worries and to trust in you. Fill my heart with your peace and remind me of your faithfulness. In Jesus, Amen.
