祢的慈爱比生命更好！

祢的慈爱比生命更好！

诗篇 63:1-11 CUNPSS-神

“神啊，你是我的　神， 我要切切地寻求你， 在干旱疲乏无水之地，我渴想你； 我的心切慕你。 我在圣所中曾如此瞻仰你， 为要见你的能力和你的荣耀。 因你的慈爱比生命更好， 我的嘴唇要颂赞你。 我还活的时候要这样称颂你； 我要奉你的名举手。 我在床上记念你， 在夜更的时候思想你； 我的心就像饱足了骨髓肥油， 我也要以欢乐的嘴唇赞美你。

因为你曾帮助我， 我就在你翅膀的荫下欢呼。 我心紧紧地跟随你； 你的右手扶持我。 但那些寻索要灭我命的人 必往地底下去； 他们必被刀剑所杀， 被野狗所吃。 但是王必因　神欢喜。 凡指着他发誓的必要夸口， 因为说谎之人的口必被塞住。”

反思

“我们在神里享最深满足之时，正是祂在我们中得最高荣耀之刻” - John Piper。 大卫能看到主的慈爱比生命更好是因为他经历神同在的美好！所以，就算他遭遇最辛苦的事，他能切切渴慕神！我们要知道主就是我们生命的满足！不要被世界的物质吸引。让神成为祢的满足！

1） 切切寻求主！

寻求主要切切，要渴慕。如鹿渴慕溪水一样。你愿意寻求，主就被祢寻见。主没有躲起来。可是，很多人都没有切切的寻求和渴慕主！祂的慈爱比生命更好！认识祂才明白生命的意义，了解生命的价值！

2） 天天亲近主！

亲近主，主就会亲近你。天天从神那里领受就有足够的给出去。主要我们有足够的爱分享出去！不灵修的基督徒是很容易跌倒和软弱的。我们要知道耶稣就是生命！

3） 深深的爱主！

大卫说“我心紧紧地跟随你； 你的右手扶持我。” 大卫是用心来跟随。我小女儿最喜欢牵我的手而且也会用她身体贴着我。虽然很难走路，但是却很容易触动人心。天父也要我们紧紧跟随，深深的爱主！

祷告

亲爱的耶稣，帮助我切切的寻求，渴慕祢更多！保守孩子的心，让我天天尝到主恩的滋味！因为祢的慈爱比生命更好！奉耶稣的名求，阿门！

God is most glorified when we are most satisfied in Him

Psalms 63:3, 5,8, 9 NLT

Your unfailing love is better than life itself; how I praise you!

….You satisfy me more than the richest feast. I will praise you with songs of joy.

….I cling to you; your strong right hand holds me securely. But those plotting to destroy me will come to ruin. They will go down into the depths of the earth.

Reflection

There is a longing and seeking in the heart of David. Being the King, he could have many things to satisfy his desires but he longed for the Presence of God. David found strength in God because he was fully satisfied in Him. Today, there is an emptiness in the lives of many people because we often try to fill our satisfaction through material things or through human relationships. Some felt satisfied when they got the latest gadgets, others found satisfaction when they performed well in their job and still others found satisfaction when others appreciated them. All these desires led to a lustful demand for things that does not satisfy us fully. Its like satisfying a bottomless pit where our lives will soon center on getting rather than giving. However, to be satisfied in God is to know that God has given all for us to give all. If we are satisfied in Him, there is a certain gratefulness and thankfulness that will fill our hearts. God is most pleased when we enjoy Him the most!

Prayer

Lord, thank You for reminding me that the void in our hearts can never be replaced by anything except You. So, Let me not get satisfaction in my performance or results, appraisals or appreciation. Let me be fully satisfied in knowing You and meeting with You! For there is nothing else that will really satisfies our hearts fully except You. Bless my bros n sis to find complete satisfaction in You today! In Jesus’ Name, amen.
