Quote from "Our Daily Bread"
In what ways can we strengthen, encourage, or refresh ourselves in the Lord when we're feeling discouraged?
First, we can remember what God has done for us. Second, we can remember what God has promised us.
"Be strong and of good courage;...for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go"(Josh.1:9).
「你當剛強壯膽!不要懼怕，也不要驚惶，因為你無論往哪裡去，耶和華你的上帝必與你同在。」(約書亞記1:9)

A REAL CHRISTMAS
Quote from "Our Daily Bread"
Read:
Luke 2:25-35
This Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against. --Luke 2:34
"Let us at all costs avoid the temptation to make our Christmas worship a withdrawal from the stress and sorrow of life into a realm of unreal beauty. It was into the real world that Christ came, into the city where there was no room for Him, and into a country where Herod, the murderer of innocents, was king."
"He comes to us , not to shield us from the harshness of the world but to give us the courage and strength to bear it; not to snatch us away by some miracle from the conflict of life , but to give us peace--His peace--in our hearts, by which we may be calmly steadfast while the conflict rages, and be able to bring to the torn world the healing that is peace."
"Christ did not come to shield us from the grief and pain of life; but those who have His peace inside can thrive within the strife."
