以赛亚书 9:7

In this reading plan we will look at Isaiah 9 and learn about the Christmases Corrie ten Boom celebrated in her childhood; before wartime and in concentration camp Ravensbrück 1944. Corrie wrote about these Christmases herself in ‘Corrie’s Christmas Memories’ (1976).

圣诞节是一个充满着商业气息的节日。购物与大餐、欢笑与消费，五彩纷呈的橱窗、五花八门的娱乐，仿佛成了这个节日的主题。圣诞节，也在向我们发出这样一个问题：我们到底想要什么？是那转瞬即逝的浮华与欢笑？还是一份真正的、从永恒而来的礼物？ 将临期（Advent）是指“即将来临”的意思，我们在这期间透过安静预备自己，记念耶稣基督两千年前在伯利恒的马槽降生，默想祂此刻在我们心中的同在，也企盼祂在末世的荣耀中再来。我们渴望上帝介入我们的生命，经历光照与觉醒，在熟悉的事物中发现上帝同在的痕迹，经历救赎的喜乐。 将临期主题四：盼望之光——迎接主的来临殷切地盼望主的再来 将临期第四个主日，最后一根紫色蜡烛会被点燃，代表平安的意思。我们在等候中迎接主的来临，这不仅包括记念基督首次降临，也包括盼望主的再来。在等候中，我们投入新的委身与使命，为上帝的国度而活。主再来的日子虽然未知，但愿我们时刻预备自己，警醒不懈，因为祂必会如期而至。愿这份殷勤的盼望，推动我们前进。 灵修阅读计划按照四个主题而编排： 启示之光——醒悟与等候以迎接一个崭新的开始 复苏之光——悔改与洁净以选择从罪恶归回上帝 喜乐之光——重拾生命中的恩典并以耶和华为乐 盼望之光——迎接主的来临殷切地盼望主的再来
