每日灵粮(2010-03-31): 那美好的仗我已经打过了,当跑的路我已经跑尽了,所信的道我已经守住了。
 
                                    道别
  「那美好的仗我已经打过了,当跑的路我已经跑尽了,所信的道我已经守住了。」提后4:7  旅程有始也有终,我们在基督里的生命虽然永远不会结束,但我们知道,我们世上的旅程不会永久持续下去,有一天我们将会站在我们的创造主面前。
  今天,让我们看看保罗如何预备与神相会这件重要的事。保罗以激动的言词和感人的比喻,谈到他在世的生命将要完结,他坦白承认他感到难过,而他亦表明他在基督里的盼望是何等的坚定。
  在回想他多年来作基督的使徒时,保罗竟借用了运动员常用的词汇,或许有点出乎我们意料之外。保罗说他已成功跑完赛事,并且遵行了所有的规矩 —— 就是基督的教训。他已守住所守的道,现在他已准备妥当接受裁判的奖励 —— 一个完美的公义冠冕。
  保罗在一生传道工作中,都信赖他的救主。现今他已差不多走完世上的属灵旅程,并且向前瞻望与神一起的新历程,他仍然继续信赖祂。
  当生命旅程完结时,我们能否说,我们已打过美好的仗和已守住所信的道呢?我们能否赢得公义的冠冕呢?神的恩典天天引领我们,惟有借着祂的恩典,我们才可以尽忠,并且得着耶稣的公义和冠冕,与祂一起活着,直到永永远远。
 
                          祷告
  父啊,我们活在世上的每一天,都在准备将来与祢会面。求祢时常引领我们行在祢的道路上,又叫我们因基督配得公义的冠冕。阿们。
 
 
2 Timothy 4:6-8
                   DEPARTURE TIME
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7Every journey has a beginning and an end. Though our life with Christ will never end, we know that our journey on this earth is not going to last forever. One day we will stand in our Creator’s presence.
 
Today we are looking at Paul’s preparations for this important meeting. His thoughts about the end of his life on earth are filled with stirring emotion and striking imagery. He is honest with us in his sadness, just as he is strong in his Christian hope.
 
When Paul reflects on his years as Christ’s apostle, it may surprise us that he uses language from the sports world. Paul says he has successfully finished the race, observed all the rules—the teachings of Christ. He has kept his faith, and now he is ready to accept his award from the Judge—a beautiful crown of righteousness.
 
Throughout his ministry Paul trusted his Savior. He is doing the same as he nears the end of his spiritual pilgrimage on this earth and looks forward to a new adventure in God’s presence.
 
When our journey runs its course, will we be able to say we have fought the good fight and kept the faith? Will we be awarded the crown of righteousness? God’s grace is leading us every day, and only by this grace can we be faithful, credited with Jesus’ righteousness and crowned to live in his presence forever.
 
                       PRAYER
Father, every hour on this earth is a preparation for meeting you. Lead us always in your ways, and make us worthy in Christ to re¬ceive your crown of righteousness. Amen.
