Mar 31【每日活水】将生活全然献给神

 

马可福音12:35~44

大卫子孙的问题

35 耶稣在殿里教训人,就问他们说:「文士怎么说基督是大卫的子孙呢?

36 大卫被圣灵感动,说:
主对我主说:
你坐在我的右边,
等我使你仇敌作你的脚凳。

37 大卫既自己称他为主,他怎么又是大卫的子孙呢?」众人都喜欢听他。

谴责文士

38 耶稣在教训之间,说:「你们要防备文士;他们好穿长衣游行,喜爱人在街市上问他们的安,

39 又喜爱会堂里的高位,筵席上的首座。

40 他们侵吞寡妇的家产,假意作很长的祷告。这些人要受更重的刑罚!」

寡妇的奉献

41 耶稣对银库坐着,看众人怎样投钱入库。有好些财主往里投了若干的钱。

42 有一个穷寡妇来,往里投了两个小钱,就是一个大钱。

43 耶稣叫门徒来,说:「我实在告诉你们,这穷寡妇投入库里的,比众人所投的更多。

44 因为,他们都是自己有余,拿出来投在里头;但这寡妇是自己不足,把她一切养生的都投上了。」

Whose Son Is the Messiah?

35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, he asked, “Why do the teachers of the law say that the Messiah is the son of David?

36 David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, declared:
“‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
until I put your enemies
under your feet.”’

37 David himself calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?”

The large crowd listened to him with delight.

Warning Against the Teachers of the Law

38 As he taught, Jesus said, “Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted with respect in the marketplaces,

39 and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.

40 They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”

The Widow’s Offering

41 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts.

42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.

43 Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.

44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”

决心与应用

5.我何时曾犹豫将手中的一切全然献给神,原因是什么?

6.为了将生活全然献给神,我决定要怎么做?

被圣灵感动(36节):指靠着圣灵所赐的感动,说出先知的话。
他怎么又是大卫的后裔呢(37节):耶稣给文士出了一个谜题,问他们弥赛亚如何能既作大卫的主,又作大卫的后裔。
穿长袍走来走去(38节):犹太学者的特殊服饰,目的是要炫耀作为宗教领袖的地位。
小文钱、大文钱(42节):小文钱为当时面额最小的犹太铜币,大文钱则为当时面额最小的罗马铜币,两个小文钱在币值上等于一个大文钱。

灵修指南

文士错失神话语的本质,只执着于形式上的礼仪(38~39节)。他们的外表敬内心却充斥着自以为义和傲慢,以致遭到耶稣的谴责。相对地,将一生所有献给神的穷寡妇,却得蒙耶稣的喜悦。那位穷寡妇有的不多,却将拥有的一切甘心献给神,显明她对神的爱,耶稣随后甚至以她的行为来阐释奉献的意义(42~44节)。世界让我们执着于物质,难以将生活全然献给神。盼望我们有智慧地经营生活,并将生活的一切归给神,得着神的称赞。
 

内室祷告

愿我有智慧地经营生活,并将生活的一切归给神,得着神的称赞。
