一天的靈修 005
目標是什麼?如何開始?
靈修時思想門徒們與耶穌的互動。
當門徒們知道耶穌要離開他們了(受死、釘十架),都十分地焦慮。今天的經文裡,門徒多馬與腓力分別提出了他們的問題,讓他們來體會他們的困境,也透過耶穌的回答來認識他。今天的進行方式如下:
1.
Prayer
– 禱告:以禱告預備自己的心。
2.
Scripture
– 經文:唸出(要出聲音)指定經文3次。
3.
Context
– 情境:今天提出幾個經文的靈修面向,請大家自由選擇一項作為今日的焦點:
Ø
多馬的疑問
Ø
腓力的請求
Ø
耶穌的回答
4.
Meditation
– 默想:這部份最重要!一整天都反面讀這段經文。

禱告
天父上帝,今早我們把自己放在門徒的位置,透過當時12門徒的眼光來認識祢,求祢啟示我們,也讓我們認識祢。奉耶穌的名禱告,阿們!
Scripture
- 今日經文[1](約翰福音 14:1-14)
約翰福音 14:1–14 (CUV) — 1 「你們心裏不要憂愁;你們信上帝,也當信我。2 在我父的家裏有許多住處;若是沒有,我就早已告訴你們了。我去原是為你們預備地方去。3
我若去為你們預備了地方,就必再來接你們到我那裏去,我在哪裏,叫你們也在那裏。4 我往哪裏去,你們知道;那條路,你們也知道。」5 多馬對他說:「主啊,我們不知道你往哪裏去,怎麼知道那條路呢?」6 耶穌說:「我就是道路、真理、生命;若不藉著我,沒有人能到父那裏去。7
你們若認識我,也就認識我的父。從今以後,你們認識他,並且已經看見他。」8 腓力對他說:「求主將父顯給我們看,我們就知足了。」9
耶穌對他說:「腓力,我與你們同在這樣長久,你還不認識我嗎?人看見了我,就是看見了父;你怎麼說『將父顯給我們看』呢?10 我在父裏面,父在我裏面,你不信嗎?我對你們所說的話,不是憑著自己說的,乃是住在我裏面的父做他自己的事。11
你們當信我,我在父裏面,父在我裏面;即或不信,也當因我所做的事信我。12 我實實在在地告訴你們,我所做的事,信我的人也要做,並且要做比這更大的事,因為我往父那裏去。13 你們奉我的名無論求甚麼,我必成就,叫父因兒子得榮耀。14 你們若奉我的名求甚麼,我必成就。」
John 14:1–14 (NLT) — 1 “Don’t let your hearts be
troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. 2 There is more than
enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you
that I am going to prepare a place for you? 3 When everything is ready,
I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. 4
And you know the way to where I am going.” 5 “No, we don’t know, Lord,”
Thomas said. “We have no idea where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can
come to the Father except through me. 7 If you had really known me, you
would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!” 8
Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.” 9
Jesus replied, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still
don’t know who I am? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you
asking me to show him to you? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the
Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father
who lives in me does his work through me. 11 Just believe that I am in
the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of the work you
have seen me do. 12 “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me
will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going
to be with the Father. 13 You can ask for anything in my name, and I
will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. 14 Yes, ask
me for anything in my name, and I will do it!
Context
– 情境(擇一即可)
多馬的疑問:耶穌往哪去?什麼叫跟隨耶穌?
(到底跟隨耶穌是什麼意思?是你跟著祂?還是祂來跟著你?)
腓力的請求:我想看見神!
(來教會夠嗎?讀聖經夠嗎?到底對你而言什麼是經歷神?你個人覺得怎麼樣才叫作「神向你顯現」?)
耶穌的回答:跟著我就是方向/看清楚我就是看清楚神
(我就是道路、真理、生命/你們若認識我,也就認識我的父/人看見了我,就是看見了父/你們當信我,我在父裏面,父在我裏面;即或不信,也當因我所做的事信我/我所做的事,信我的人也要做,並且要做比這更大的事,因為我往父那裏去/你們奉我的名無論求甚麼,我必成就,叫父因兒子得榮耀)
Meditation
– 默想
門徒們的疑問往往就是我們自己內心的OS,今天我們讓耶穌自己來解答我們的問題。人生的方向是什麼?上帝顯現是什麼意思?讓我們來聽聽耶穌怎麼說。
