每日箴言
黄昏的祷告
“我将我的灵魂交在你手里。” - 诗 31:5
? 灵修
昨天我们思想以祷告开始每一天的重要性,今天我们将会看看,在一天的完结的时候祷告,对我们有多么大的益处。
黄昏的祷告有两个重点,首先,我们怀着感恩和认罪的心来反省当天发生的事,我们感谢神的丰盛良善,我们也为当日所犯的罪祈求赦免。
另一方面,我们想到晚上的时间,我们祈求神在我们睡眠的时候保护我们。我们知道我们的软弱和我们需要倚靠神,所以我们要靠衪细心的看顾,经上说:“保护你的必不打盹”(诗篇 121:3)。
以上这两点,诗篇31篇都有提到,在这里,我们不但看到一个赦罪的祷告,我们更看到诗人表达他对神的信靠。有人曾说过,“我将我的灵魂交在你手里”这句话,是犹太父母教导儿女在睡前念诵的祷告,这句话也是耶稣在十字架上面临死亡的时候所做的祷告(路加福音 23:46),当祂闭上眼睛在死亡中安息的时候,就把自己交托给神。
靠着耶稣,我们有罪蒙赦免的保证,又确实得到神细心的爱护。所以,在睡觉之前,先与神交谈吧,你可以感谢祂赐下的恩典,以及把你脆弱的生命放在祂有力的手中。
? 祷告
主啊,在一天完结时我要向你祷告,感谢你看顾我和赦免我,你是我的神,我是你的儿女,我信靠你,奉耶稣的名祈求,阿们!
普世佳音每日箴言
? Evening Prayer
"Into your hands I commit my spirit." — Psalm 31:5
? Devotion
Yesterday we reflected on the importance of starting each day with prayer. Today we'll look at how valuable it is to pray at the end of the day.
Evening prayer has a dual focus. On the one hand, we look back on the events of the day with gratitude and confession. We thank God for his abundant goodness, and we ask forgiveness for the sins we have committed that day.
On the other hand, we look ahead to the nighttime and ask God to protect us as we sleep. As we recognize our vulnerability and dependence on God, we entrust ourselves to his watchful care: "He who watches over you will not slumber" (Psalm 121:3).
Psalm 31 includes both of these elements. Here we find a prayer for deliverance as well as an expression of trust. It's been said that the words "Into your hands I commit my spirit" served as a bedtime prayer that Jewish parents taught their children. It's the prayer Jesus spoke just before dying on the cross (Luke 23:46). As he closed his eyes in the sleep of death, he placed his trust in God.
Because of Jesus, we have the assurance of forgiveness and the certainty of God's watchful love. So before you sleep, talk to the Lord. Thank him for his grace, and place your fragile life in his strong hands.
? Prayer
At the end of the day I pray to you, Lord. Thank you for taking care of me and forgiving me. You are my God, and I am your child. I trust in you. For Jesus' sake, Amen.
