When we walk with God, the best is yet to come.

与上帝同行，未来更美好。

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. Deuteronomy 33:27

永生的上帝是你的居所，祂永久的膀臂在你以下。-申命记33章27节

Are the best days of your life behind or in front of you? Our outlook on life—and our answer to that question—can change with time. When we’re younger, we look ahead, wanting to grow up. And once we’ve grown older, we yearn for the past, wanting to be young again. But when we walk with God, whatever our age, the best is yet to come!

你最美好的日子已经过去了或是还未来到呢？对于这个问题的答案，我们会随着年龄而有所改变。年幼时，我们希望能尽快长大。可是年纪老大不小时，我们却又怀念过去的日子，渴望能再年轻一次。其实，当我们与上帝同行，无论什么年龄，未来都是最美好的。

Over the course of his long life, Moses witnessed the amazing things God did, and many of those amazing things happened when he was no longer a young man. Moses was 80 years old when he confronted Pharaoh and saw God miraculously set His people free from slavery (Ex. 3–13). Moses saw the Red Sea part, saw manna fall from heaven, and even spoke with God “face to face” (14:21; 16:4; 33:11).

摩西活了120岁，亲眼目睹了上帝奇妙的作为，而其中许多神迹奇事发生时，并不是在摩西年轻的时候。摩西在八十岁时与法老当面对峙，看见上帝显出权能，让上帝的子民脱离奴役的辖制(出埃及记3-13章) 。后来，摩西也看见红海分开，以及吗哪从天而降，他甚至与上帝“面对面”说话(14章21节，16章4节，33章11节) 。

Throughout his life, Moses lived expectantly, looking ahead to what God would do (Heb. 11:24–27). He was 120 years old in his final year of life on this earth, and even then he understood that his life with God was just getting started and that he would never see an end to God’s greatness and love.

纵观摩西的一生，他总是展望未来，殷切期盼上帝将要成就的事(希伯来书11章24-27节)。即使在摩西120岁的人生尽头，他仍清楚知道，新的生命历程即将展开，他将永远与上帝同住，继续享受上帝永无止尽的大爱。

Regardless of our age, “the eternal God is [our] refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms” (Deut. 33:27) that faithfully carry us into His joy each day.

不管年轻或年老，永生的上帝都是我们的居所，祂永久的膀臂都会扶持我们 (申命记33章27节) ，每一天，祂将信实地帮助我们得着祂的喜乐。

O Lord my God, I praise You for all 

You have done in the past. 

I look forward with thankfulness for all 

You will do in the future. 

And I thank You for today and all Your blessings.

主啊，我的上帝，
我要为袮过去一切的作为赞美祢。
我还要心存感恩，期盼祢在未来成就美事。
同时，我还要为今日祢赐下的福分，
向祢献上感谢！

The Death of Moses

34 Then Moses climbed Mount Nebo from the plains of Moab to the top of Pisgah, across from Jericho. There the Lord showed him the whole land—from Gilead to Dan, 2 all of Naphtali, the territory of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the Mediterranean Sea, 3 the Negev and the whole region from the Valley of Jericho, the City of Palms, as far as Zoar. 4 Then the Lord said to him, “This is the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacobwhen I said, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not cross over into it.”

5 And Moses the servant of the Lord died there in Moab, as the Lordhad said. 6 He buried him in Moab, in the valley opposite Beth Peor,but to this day no one knows where his grave is. 7 Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak nor his strength gone. 8 The Israelites grieved for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days, until the time of weeping and mourning was over.

9 Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands on him. So the Israelites listened to him and did what the Lord had commanded Moses.

10 Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lordknew face to face, 11 who did all those signs and wonders the Lord sent him to do in Egypt—to Pharaoh and to all his officials and to his whole land. 12 For no one has ever shown the mighty power or performed the awesome deeds that Moses did in the sight of all Israel.

申命记 34

摩西卒

34 摩西从摩押平原登尼波山，上了那与耶利哥相对的毗斯迦山顶。耶和华把基列全地直到但， 2 拿弗他利全地，以法莲、玛拿西的地，犹大全地直到西海， 3 南地和棕树城耶利哥的平原，直到琐珥，都指给他看。 4 耶和华对他说：“这就是我向亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各起誓应许之地，说：‘我必将这地赐给你的后裔。’现在我使你眼睛看见了，你却不得过到那里去。” 5 于是，耶和华的仆人摩西死在摩押地，正如耶和华所说的。 6 耶和华将他埋葬在摩押地，伯毗珥对面的谷中，只是到今日没有人知道他的坟墓。 7 摩西死的时候年一百二十岁，眼目没有昏花，精神没有衰败。8 以色列人在摩押平原为摩西哀哭了三十日，为摩西居丧哀哭的日子就满了。

9 嫩的儿子约书亚因为摩西曾按手在他头上，就被智慧的灵充满，以色列人便听从他，照着耶和华吩咐摩西的行了。 10 以后以色列中再没有兴起先知像摩西的，他是耶和华面对面所认识的。 11 耶和华打发他在埃及地向法老和他的一切臣仆，并他的全地，行各样神迹奇事， 12 又在以色列众人眼前显大能的手，行一切大而可畏的事。
