Jesus emphasizes the importance of loveand obedience, stating that those who love Him will be loved by the Father,
and He will reveal Himself to themunco - P113

But there is one who can reach into the deepest places of our spirit, one who can walk with us every step of the way. Jesus Himself, through the power and presence of His Spirit, comes to those who love Him in their time of need. - P114

Through the Spirit, both Father and Son will make their home in our hearts. - P114

As we love and obey our Lord, we open our lives to His presence. - P114

When we come to believe in Christ, God sends His Spirit, whom Jesus re-fers to as "the Spirit of truth" (John 14:17) to come dwell within our hearts.
The presence of the Holy Spirit is not only evidence of our decision to be-lieve in the Lord; it is also a guarantee that, no matter where we go or whatwe do, God is present with us.  - P115

Through the work of the Holy Spirit withinour hearts, the Lord convicts, encourages, and sanctifies us to grow into thepeople He wants us to be. He uses the Spirit of truth to mold our lives andmake them increasingly reflective of how His truth has changed us. - P115

˝내가 하나님과 사랑에 빠져 있는 증거는, 성스럽고 ...

"내가 하나님과 사랑에 빠져 있는 증거는,
성스럽고 놀라운 일들이 아니라 일상적이고 단순한 인간적인 일들 가운데서 나타납니다." 사랑에 빠지면 그저 자연스럽게 무언가를 하게 됩니다.  - P67

"주님을 사랑하면 지금 그분을 위해할 수 있는 일들이 너무나 많은데, 당신은 그저 주님의 구속의 위대함만 묵상하고 있습니까?" 우리의 마음을 아프게 찌르는 지적입니다. - P67

그냥 견디라는 음성이 아니라 하나님께서 결코 패배하지 않으신다는 확신가운데 구체적으로 일을 진행시켜 나가라는 음성입니다." 인내가 정적이라면, 불굴은 동적입니다. 출애굽한 이스라엘 백성들은 앞으로는 홍해, 뒤로는 애굽 군사를 마주한 진퇴양난의 상황에 있었습니다. 이 순간 이스라엘 백성의 최선은 가만히 서서 일하시는 하나님을 바라보는 것이었습니다.  - P68

언제나 승리하시는 능력의하나님을 묵상하는 일, 이것이 ‘불굴입니다. - P68

‘불굴‘에도 불구하고 고난이 찾아왔다면아무리 불굴의 의지를 가지고 있어도 고난이 찾아오면 힘들고 아픕니다. 신앙생활에서 가장 힘든 일은 고난의 시간을 참고 기다리는 것‘입니다. "만일 당신의 소망이 지금 난관을 겪고 있다면,
이는 그 소망이 정결케 되고 있다는 뜻입니다.  - P68

하나님은 절대로 우리를 실망시키시는 분이 아닙니다. 고난이 우리의 소망을 정결케 한다는 말은 ‘기다림의 시간‘을 통해 소망이 완성되어 간다는 의미입니다. - P68

[오늘의 한문장] 다윗의 숨겨진 전설

모세나 다윗의 분배 원리는 ‘전쟁의 승리는 하나님의 도우심의 결과요. 모든 전리품은 하나님이 허락하신 선물‘이라는 신앙에서 우러나온 것이었다. - P135

3And if I go and prepare a pl...

3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.

4You know the way to the place where I am going."

5Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"
- P108

6Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. - P108

11Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.

12Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. - P109

13And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. - P109

He promises a place of rest and security that He Himself is preparing for each of us. Our struggles in this life are painful but temporary. The security and rest that await us are eternal. - P110

we point others to Jesus and to the unseen Father by the lives that we live. We, too, reflect the face of the Father. - P110

Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don‘t know where you are going, so how canwe know the way?" Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me."-John 14:4-6Jesus confirms to the disciples that He is indeed the way for them to besaved and welcomed in right relationship with God.  - P111

Jesus, I come to You with my troubles and questions. Help me see that in spite of my doubts, You are ready to meet me where I am. Enable me to recognize and know the Father through the testimony of Your life. In Your name I pray, amen. - P111

그러나 이미 주께서 우리에게 무엇을 해야 하는지 분명...

그러나 이미 주께서 우리에게 무엇을 해야 하는지 분명히 알려주셨음에도불구하고 계속 꿈만 꾸고 있다면 이는 악한 것입니다."  - P66

신앙생활에는 하나님의 음성을 듣기 위해 묵상해야 하는 때가 있고, 그 말씀을 듣고 행동해야 할 때도 있습니다. - P66

 하나님의 음성은 늘 우리와 함께하지만, 모든 사람이 그 음성을 듣는 것은 아닙니다. 하나님의 음성에 귀를 기울여야 합니다. 우리에게 들리는 하나님의 음성이 분명하다는 확신이 들 때는 순종하며 움직여야 합니다. 예수님은 제자들에게
‘일어나서 여기를 떠나자‘라고 말씀하십니다. 제자로 부름 받은 우리는 사명을감당할 곳을 향해 움직여 나아가야 합니다. - P66

순종은 하나님의 손을 붙잡는 열쇠입니다. - P66

주님을 사랑하면 지금 그분을 위해할 수 있는 일들이 너무나 많은데, 당신은 그저 주님의 구속의 위대함만 묵상하고 있습니까?" 우리의 마음을 아프게 찌르는 지적입니다.

한줄노트 주님을 사랑한다고 하면서 아무것도 하지 않고 있다면, 교묘한 방식으로 주님을 속이고 자신을 기만하는 것입니다. - P67
