為團契而造Sample

生活導論
如果你能建立一個健康的團契,今天的經文指出了兩個關鍵要素:「愛」和「順服」。「愛」是理所當然的。我們希望與我們愛與被愛的人建立關係。但是「順服」如何影響我們體驗與神的團契呢?
耶穌告訴門徒,如果他們愛他並遵守他的誡命,神就會賜下聖靈與他們永遠同在。令人讚嘆的是,耶穌也應許賜下團契,他與神和聖靈同出一轍。我們也能領受這份恩賜,我們從不孤單。
如果你在團契中曾經受到傷害,請振作。神與你建立的關係是屹立不變的。它不會根據生活季節、地點或愛好而改變。我們在神裡面是受祂歡迎的,因為他先愛我們。愛神只是對耶穌為我們所成就的回應:神會盡力確保你知道你屬於祂,甚至差遣祂自己的兒子死在十字架上。我們沒有被拋諸腦後或被遺棄,而是我們現在與聖靈同在,等待與耶穌同在的永恆。
我們如何向耶穌表明我們愛他?我們順服他的誡命。順服的人表現出對他的愛,愛耶穌的人也同時被神愛著。「順服」是愛的體現。那些被神所愛的人也被耶穌所愛,隨著我們與他關係的增長,耶穌向我們啟示了他自己。認識耶穌、愛他、順服他、然後更多地認識他是一個的美麗的循環關係。
順服能夠通向愛,愛能通向與神永遠的團契。在天上,有為你與神永住的位置!
