May 21【每日活水】盼望在天上的财宝

马太福音19:16~30

少年财主
（可10‧17－31；路18‧18－30）
16 有一个人来见耶稣，说：「夫子，我该做什么善事才能得永生？」

17 耶稣对他说：「你为什么以善事问我呢？只有一位是善的。你若要进入永生，就当遵守诫命。」

18 他说：「什么诫命？」耶稣说：「就是不可杀人；不可奸淫；不可偷盗；不可作假见证；

19 当孝敬父母；又当爱人如己。」

20 那少年人说：「这一切我都遵守了，还缺少什么呢？」

21 耶稣说：「你若愿意作完全人，可去变卖你所有的，分给穷人，就必有财宝在天上；你还要来跟从我。」

22 那少年人听见这话，就忧忧愁愁地走了，因为他的产业很多。

23 耶稣对门徒说：「我实在告诉你们，财主进天国是难的。

24 我又告诉你们，骆驼穿过针的眼，比财主进　神的国还容易呢！」

25 门徒听见这话，就希奇得很，说：「这样谁能得救呢？」

26 耶稣看着他们，说：「在人这是不能的，在　神凡事都能。」

27 彼得就对他说：「看哪，我们已经撇下所有的跟从你，将来我们要得什么呢？」

28 耶稣说：「我实在告诉你们，你们这跟从我的人，到复兴的时候，人子坐在他荣耀的宝座上，你们也要坐在十二个宝座上，审判以色列十二个支派。

29 凡为我的名撇下房屋，或是弟兄、姊妹、父亲、母亲、儿女、田地的，必要得着百倍，并且承受永生。

30 然而，有许多在前的，将要在后；在后的，将要在前。」

The Rich and the Kingdom of God

16 Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?”

17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?”Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”

18 “Which ones?” he inquired.Jesus replied, “ ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony,

19 honor your father and mother,’ and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’”

20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”

21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven.

24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

27 Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?”

28 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.

30 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.

灵修指南

有一位富有的青年人来找耶稣，请求耶稣指引得永生的方法。耶稣的回答是，变卖所拥有的分给穷人，然后来跟从耶稣(16,21节)。这位青年财主相信自己已经遵守了所有的诫命，并且财物富足，可以想见，他应该对自己的生活感到满意。但耶稣使我们看见，这位青年财主的内心深受物欲支配。耶稣邀请青年财主放下地上的财富，盼望天上的财宝，并且来跟从祂。然而，这位青年财主在听到耶稣所说的话后，就忧忧愁愁地走了。当我们放下所拥有的并跟随耶稣，就表示我们爱耶稣胜过其他的事物。若我们抛弃以自我为中心的世间价值观，盼望在天上的财宝，我们的人生将不再被这世界的物质生活所束缚，反倒能真实享受神国的福分。因此，我们要学习将耶稣摆在人生的首位，为耶稣放下那些看似贵重的事物，愿我们从今天开始，日日更多爱主。

内室祷告

求主帮助我不受世间事物的束缚，使我喜乐跟随主，盼望属天的福。
