是是誰 D+ 看世界~*

面對生殺仇恨的哥哥們
約瑟行在神眼中看為美好的事

神的美意是使人和好並且恢復關係

信仰是你我之間的一座橋
幫助我們重新看見神的心意
使我們和好並且恢復關係

婚姻關係需要被恢復
人際關係需要被恢復
親子關係需要被恢復
你我需要進入恢復的生命裡面

但若你我被自我所綑綁
非但無法恢復任何關係
反倒會讓關係更為複雜

身為基督徒的你我當思想
你我周遭需要被恢復的關係
這是轉向信仰更深的作為

我們可以為了金錢而讓彼此的關係決裂
我們可以為了神學而讓教會的關係破裂
我們可以為了權力而讓友情的關係斷絕

只因為你我都太過於看中自己
而非看重神的心意

神的心意是好的為要使人和好
神要祝福你我成為和好的種子與恢復的管道

讓你我以愛轉眼仰望神的恩典
進入和好與恢復的生命裡面





創世記

42:21 他們彼此說：「我們在兄弟身上實在有罪。他哀求我們的時候，我們見他心裡的愁苦，卻不肯聽，所以這場苦難臨到我們身上。」
And they said one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.
42:22 流便說：「我豈不是對你們說過，不可傷害那孩子嗎？只是你們不肯聽，所以流他血的罪向我們追討。」
And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.
42:23 他們不知道約瑟聽得出來，因為在他們中間用通事傳話。
And they knew not that Joseph understood them ; for he spake unto them by an interpreter. he spake...: Heb. an interpreter was between them
42:24 約瑟轉身退去，哭了一場，又回來對他們說話，就從他們中間挑出西緬來，在他們眼前把他捆綁。
And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.
42:25 約瑟吩咐人把糧食裝滿他們的器具，把各人的銀子歸還在各人的口袋裡，又給他們路上用的食物，人就照他的話辦了。
Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he unto them.
42:26 他們就把糧食馱在驢上，離開那裡去了。
And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence.
42:27 到了住宿的地方，他們中間有一個人打開口袋，要拿料餵驢，才看見自己的銀子仍在口袋裡，
And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it was in his sack's mouth.
42:28 就對弟兄們說：「我的銀子歸還了，看哪，仍在我口袋裡！」他們就提心吊膽，戰戰兢兢地彼此說：「這是　神向我們做甚麼呢？」
And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them , and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us? failed...: Heb. went forth
