Love Others the Way God Loves You
像上帝爱你那样爱别人
— 2018/2/15
“Love never stops being patient, never stops believing, never stops hoping, never gives up” (1 Corinthians 13:7 GW).
“凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐”
(哥林多前书 13:7 和合本)。
The same love that God gives to you, he wants you to offer to everybody else that you come in contact with. It’s not an option or a suggestion. It’s a command from Jesus himself: “Now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other” (John 13:34 NLT).
上帝想让你以他爱你的方式去爱所有你接触的人。这不是一种选择,也不是一个建议。这是来自耶稣的命令:“我赐给你们一条新命令,乃是叫你们彼此相爱;我怎样爱你们,你们也要怎样相爱。”(约翰福音 13:34 和合本)。
If you are a follower of Christ, you must love everybody — whether you like them or not — in the same way that Christ loves you. That means you are to accept them completely, love them unconditionally, forgive them totally, and consider them extremely valuable.
如果你是一个基督徒,你必须爱每一个人,不管你是否喜欢他们,就像基督爱你一样。这意味着你要完全接纳他们,无条件地爱他们,完全饶恕他们,并且看他们为宝贵。
Loving others in this way will transform your relationships!
以这种方式爱别人会改变你的人际关系!
The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 13:7, “Love never stops being patient, never stops believing, never stops hoping, never gives up” (GW).
圣经在哥林多前书13:7节说到,“凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐”。
This is how God loves you. God never stops being patient with you. God never stops believing in you. God never stops hoping for the best in your life. God never gives up on you. And that’s what God wants you to do with everybody else.
这就是上帝对你的爱。上帝对你总是包容,总是相信,上帝永远希望你生活中有最好的结果。上帝对你总是忍耐。上帝也希望你向其他人这样做。
“Love never stops being patient.” That means love extends grace. You need to offer grace to others.
“爱是凡事包容。”这意味着爱能带出恩惠。你需要对别人有恩惠。
“Love never stops believing.” That means it expresses faith. You tell someone, “Even though we’re having a tough time, I will never stop believing in you.”
“爱是凡事相信。”这意味着爱传达出信心。你要告诉别人,“即使我们正在经历艰难时期,我依然会相信你。”
“Love never stops hoping.” That means love expects the best. Are you expecting the best in your marriage, or have you settled for less than the best?
“爱是凡事盼望。”这意味着爱期盼最好的。你会期待婚姻中最好的,还是会退而求其次?
“Love never gives up.” That means love endures the worst. It means you can look at the other person and say, “You can throw everything at me, but I’m going to keep loving you, no matter what.”
“爱是凡事忍耐。”这意味着爱是忍耐最坏的情况。意味着你可以看着对方说:“你虽然把一切都扔给我,不管怎样,我都会一直爱你。”
Prayer
祷告
If you want to start transforming your relationships today, then I invite you to pray this prayer to God: “Dear God, I admit that I have made a mess in my relationships. They’re complicated and broken, and I’ve often settled for less than the best. They need a transformation! I’d like you to begin by changing me. Deliver me from my fears, because I can see how they make me distant and defensive and even demanding. Today and every day from now on, I want to surrender my heart to you. I want to learn to live my life in your love and be filled with your love.
如果你想在今天开始改变你的人际关系,那么我请你向上帝祈祷:“亲爱的上帝,我承认我在人际关系中弄得一团糟。它们是复杂的,破碎的,而且我常常退而求其次。这些需要改变。我想让你从改变我开始。把我从恐惧中救拔出来,因为我能看到它们是如何让我变得疏离,防御,甚至苛求。今天,从现在开始,我要向你交出我的心。我想要学会在你的爱中生活,并用你的爱来充满我。”
“Help me to accept others, just as you’ve accepted me. Help me to love others unconditionally, just as you have loved me. Help me to forgive others totally, just as you’ve forgiven me. And help me to value others as much as you value me. Help me to extend grace to and express faith in the people around me. Help me to expect the best in others, and help me to endure the worst when it happens. I ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen.”
“请帮助我接纳别人,就像你接纳我一样。帮助我无条件地爱别人,就像你爱我一样。请帮助我完全饶恕别人,就像你饶恕我一样。帮助我看别人为宝贵,就像你看我为宝贵一样。帮助我对周围的人多有恩惠,并充满信心。帮助我期待别人有最好的结果,帮助我在最坏的情况发生时能够忍耐。奉耶稣的名祷告。阿门。”
