【Daily Bread】Reflecting God’s Love 反映主爱



Our intimate moments spent with God can change us and direct others to His love.

亲近上帝,可改变自己,并彰显主爱。


When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the Exodus 34:29

摩西手里拿着两块法版,下西奈山的时候,不知道自己的面皮因耶和华和他说话就发了光。-出埃及记34章29节


I had the privilege of serving as my mom’s caregiver during her treatments at a live-in cancer care center. Even on her hardest days, she read Scripture and prayed for others before getting out of bed.

当我的母亲住在抗癌中心接受治疗时,我有幸得以随侍在侧。我发现母亲即使在身体状况最差的时候,依然会在起身下床之前,读圣经并为人代祷。


She spent time with Jesus daily, expressing her faith through her dependence on God, her kind deeds, and her desire to encourage and pray for others. Never realizing how much her smiling face glowed with the Lord’s loving grace, she shared God’s love with the people around her until the day He called her home to heaven.

每天,她都会花时间亲近耶稣。她时刻倚靠上帝、言行充满爱心,常常热切地鼓励人并为人祷告,藉此人们可以看到她坚定的信心。她并不知道自己带着微笑的脸庞,洋溢着上帝爱的光辉。她时常与身边的人分享上帝的爱,直到上帝领她回天家的那一天。


After Moses spent forty days and forty nights communing with God (Ex. 34:28), he descended Mount Sinai. He had no idea his intimate connection with the Lord actually changed his appearance (v. 29). But the Israelites could tell Moses had spoken with the Lord (vv. 30–32). He continued meeting with God and influencing the lives of those around him (vv. 33–35).

摩西在西奈山亲近上帝四十昼夜(出埃及记34章28节)。当他下山的时候,并不知道自己的容貌因亲近上帝而有所改变(29节),但以色列民却看出上帝曾对他说话(30-32节)。摩西一生亲近上帝,也影响了身边许多人的生命(33-35节)。


We might not be able to see how our experiences with God change us over time, and our transformation will definitely not be as physically apparent as Moses’s beaming face. But as we spend time with God and surrender our lives to Him more and more each day, we can reflect His love. God can draw others closer to Him as the evidence of His presence shows in and through us.

我们可能无法看见自己在经历上帝之后,生命如何改变,而我们的改变也肯定不会有如摩西的脸发光那么显著。但是当我们每天越亲近上帝,越是在生活中顺服祂的旨意,便越能反映上帝的爱。上帝可以藉着我们的生命,展现了祂的同在,使人愿意来亲近祂。


Exodus 34:29-35New International Version (NIV)

The Radiant Face of Moses

29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiantbecause he had spoken with the Lord. 30 When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, his face was radiant, and they were afraid to come near him. 31 But Moses called to them; so Aaron and all the leaders of the community came back to him, and he spoke to them. 32 Afterward all the Israelites came near him, and he gave them all the commands theLord had given him on Mount Sinai.

33 When Moses finished speaking to them, he put a veil over his face.34 But whenever he entered the Lord’s presence to speak with him, he removed the veil until he came out. And when he came out and told the Israelites what he had been commanded, 35 they saw that his face was radiant. Then Moses would put the veil back over his face until he went in to speak with the Lord.
