God's love is abundant.
上帝的爱极其丰盛。
You give them drink from your river of delights.
Psalm 36:8
祢也必叫他们喝祢乐河的水。-诗篇36篇8节
We have a hummingbird feeder in the garden, and we love to see the little birds come and drink from its sugary water. Recently, however, we went on a short trip and forgot to replenish its contents. When we came back, it was completely dry. Poor birds! I thought. Because of my forgetfulness, they haven’t had any nourishment. Then I was reminded that I am not the one who feeds them: God is.
我们在花园里放了一个喂鸟器,看到小小的蜂鸟悬停其上,吸食其中的糖水,实在令人赏心悦目。但最近我们出门几天,却忘记在喂鸟器加添糖水。回到家时,喂鸟器里的糖水已完全干了。我心想:「可怜的鸟儿!因为我的疏忽,使它们得不到养分。」但接着,我就想到其实喂养它们的并不是我,而是上帝。
Sometimes we may feel that all of the demands of life have depleted our strength and there is no one to replenish it. But others don’t feed our souls: God does.
有时,生活中各种需求或许会让我们感到精疲力竭,觉得没有人能加添我们力量。然而,别忘了,唯有上帝能使我们的心灵得饱足。
In Psalm 36 we read about God’s loving kindness. It describes those who put their trust in Him and are abundantly satisfied. God gives them water from His “river of delights” (v. 8). He is the fountain of life!
诗篇36篇提到上帝的慈爱,描述凡投靠祂的人都能丰丰富富地得到饱足。上帝把祂「乐河的水」赐给他们(8节),祂是生命的活泉。
We can go to God every day for the supply of our needs. As Charles Spurgeon wrote, “The springs of my faith and all my graces; the springs of my life and all my pleasures; the springs of my activity and all its right doings; the springs of my hope, and all its heavenly anticipations, all lie in thee, my Lord.”
每天我们都可以把需要带到上帝面前,寻求祂的供应。就如十九世纪英国布道家司布真写道:「我的主,祢是我的信心与恩惠的泉源,是我生命与一切喜乐的源头;我的言行举止以及所有的正直行为都出于祢,祢是我属天盼望的根源。一切全都源于祢。」
Let us be filled with His abundant supply. His fountain will never run dry.
让我们满得祂丰盛的供应,祂是永流不竭的活泉。
Lord, I come to You with the confidence
that You will fill me with what I need.
主啊!我来到祢面前,
深信祢会按着我所需要的供应我。
