【读圣经学英语】凡求的,就得着

 

马太福音-Matthew 7章7~8节

7:7 求,就给你们;寻找,就寻见;叩门,就给你们开门。
  Ask and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.
7:8 因为凡求的,就得着;寻找的,就寻见;叩门的,就给他开门。
  For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened.

Enlightenment:

It takes experience to understand these verses. By reading these verses again and again in the light of our experience, we can realize that they mean that we must look to the heavenly Father as we are dealing with others. We must ask Him, seek Him, and knock for Him. Many times we have failed to do this. But these verses indicate that at the very time we are contacting people and dealing with them, we must look to the Lord and say, “Lord, tell me how to contact these people. Lord, show me how to deal with them.”  This indicates that contacting people is a serious matter.

亮光

我们需要经历来领会这些经文。我们在经历的光中,一再读这些经文,就能领悟它的意思是我们对待别人时,必须仰望天父。我们必须求祂,寻求祂,向祂叩门。很多时候我们没有这样作。但这些经文指明,我们在接触人,与人交往的时候,必须仰望主,说,“主,告诉我如何接触这些人。主,指示我如何对待他们。" 有时候光求不彀,我们必须寻找,甚至叩门。这指明接触人是严肃的事。
