Matthew 25:40

Often we feel as if we’re not doing enough. Then we feel guilty because we’re supposed to be having quiet times with God too—but when we try to slow down, our hearts and minds are still busy.

神様は、あなたが毎日の生活の中で喜びに溢れることを望んでいます。- それはたとえ困難な状況の中でもです。毎朝時間を作って、神様があなたの人生にしてくれている素晴らしいことについて思いめぐらすことをお勧めします。 「神様があなたをどのように変えてくれたのか」、そして「神様が自分を気にかけ、祈りを聞いてくださっていることを知るのは、どれだけ素晴らしいことなのか」を思い出してください。 神様について毎朝考えるようになる時、神様は毎日あなたに必要な平安と喜びを与えてくれるでしょう。

Perhaps one of the most impressive short stories of all time, the book of Ruth is an account of God’s redeeming love. The book of Ruth is a fantastic story of how God uses the lives of ordinary people to work His sovereign will. With beautiful allegories of Christ’s love and sacrifice for His people, we are shown the lengths God goes to redeem His children.
