My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
夫君如此答覆: Since now we live by the faith of Jesus Christ and believe that he died and resurrected by God. We shall not doubt in our heart by saying who shall ascend to heaven or who shall descend to deep. That would mean Jesus Christ has never died and resurrected. Then he shall die again in order to bring salvation to the world.
神的預備是奇妙, 祂給我毅力和耐心去克服難處. 半年後我可以比較輕鬆的讀, 神在我身邊放了活字典- 我先生的英文是一級棒. 從此我們就一起都讀英文版, 我也開始讀NIV, Amplified Bible, New King James , New Jerusalem Bible. 聖經的話語就漸漸存在我腦中, 神就開始送需要代禱的人來, 我也可以為他們禱告.
Hebrews 6 (New Living Translation): 10-12 For God is not unjust. He will not forget how hard you have worked for him and how you have shown your love to him by caring for other believers, as you still do. Our great desire is that you will keep on loving others as long as life lasts, in order to make certain that what you hope for will come true. Then you will not become spiritually dull and indifferent. Instead, you will follow the example of those who are going to inherit God’s promises because of their faith and endurance
7 The Lord makes some poor and others rich; he brings some down and lifts others up. 8 He lifts the poor from the dust and the needy from the garbage dump. He sets them among princes, placing them in seats of honor. For all the earth is the Lord’s, and he has set the world in order.
Deuteronomy 15:10-12 New Living Translation
10 Give generously to the poor, not grudgingly, for the Lord your God will bless you in everything you do. 11 There will always be some in the land who are poor. That is why I am commanding you to share freely with the poor and with other Israelites in need.
Psalm 113:6-8 New Living Translation
6 He stoops to look down on heaven and on earth. 7 He lifts the poor from the dust and the needy from the garbage dump. 8 He sets them among princes, even the princes of his own people!
Isaiah 41:16-18 New Living Translation
16 You will toss them into the air, and the wind will blow them all away; a whirlwind will scatter them. Then you will rejoice in the Lord. You will glory in the Holy One of Israel.
17 “When the poor and needy search for water and there is none, and their tongues are parched from thirst, then I, the Lord, will answer them. I, the God of Israel, will never abandon them. 18 I will open up rivers for them on the high plateaus. I will give them fountains of water in the valleys. I will fill the desert with pools of water. Rivers fed by springs will flow across the parched ground.
