25-34節--日用的飲食

馬太福音 第6章

在進食之前，你會否先獻上謝飯禱告？你會怎樣禱告呢？你會否為到神的豐足供應而感激謝恩呢？在你謝飯之後，你曾否為到食物不合胃口而發出抱怨呢？

令我們感到驚訝的是，基督竟然教導我們，在求神饒恕我們的罪之前，先求神賜予日用的飲食；但祂卻的確是這樣教導。當我們求神供應日用的飲食時，我們乃是承認我們要仰賴神供應一切的所需。

我們如果已有優厚的工作和固定的入息，還需要祈求神的供應嗎？當然要，因為我們享用的一切都是從神而來的。假使祂的恩手離開我們，假使祂帶走我們的一切，我們便一無所有。

有另一個譯本把這句禱文翻譯為：「求你今天賜下切合我們需要的糧食」。我們今天所吃的食物可能包含很多種類，但真正切合我們需要的，究竟是哪些食物呢？聖經提及幾種糧食，包括絕不可少的「生命之糧」──那正是耶穌基督自己。此外，神的話語就像神在曠野所賜下嗎哪一樣，是我們每天必須享用的靈糧。

聖經還提到「以眼淚當食物給他吃」(詩八十5)，和「以艱難給你作餅」(賽三十20)。相信沒有人會喜歡這兩種食物；但神知道我們需要哪種食物，祂有時也會把它們給予我們作食物。我們如果學會接受它們，甚至仔細品嚐它們，祂所賜的食物必能成就祂在我們身上的計劃。

還要注意的是，我們要求取「日用的飲食」，換言之，昨天的食物已不夠我們今天及明天的所需。我們是否只靠昨天的經驗而活？今天神會賜下哪些新鮮的食物呢？為到今天你所領受的去感謝神吧！那正是你所求的。

我們日用的飲食，求主今天賜給我們。

OUR BREAD - DAY BY DAY

BIBLE READING: Matthew 6:25-34

Do you always pray before you eat? What do you say? Why? Are you gratefully thanking God for His gracious supply? Do you ever complain about the meal after you have thanked God for it?

It may seem surprising that Christ put this request ahead of asking for the forgiveness of our sins. But He did, and when we say these words we are acknowledging that we are dependent on our Heavenly Father to give us, as one version says, the bread we shall need.

Are we really supposed to pray like that when we have a good job and a secure income? Yes, we are, because everything we have comes from our Father. If He took His hand off us, or if He took it off the world, we would have nothing!

Another rendering of this phrase is: Give us today the bread suited to our needs. How many different kinds of bread are there today? White bread, brown bread, whole meal bread, multi-grain bread. The list goes on and on. What kind do we need? Scripture mentions several kinds of bread. The Bread of Life which obviously, we all need - that is Christ Himself. The Word of God is spoken of as food. That, like the manna in the wilderness, needs to be taken daily.

The bread of tears (Psalm 80:5) and the bread of adversity (Isaiah 30:20) are two more kinds of bread mentioned in the Bible. We are not sure that we want either of these. But God knows what kind of bread I need and He sometimes gives one of these kinds of bread to us. When we have learned to accept and even digest it, the bread He gave is able to do what He planned.

Notice it is Our daily bread. Yesterdays bread is not sufficient for today, nor tomorrow. Are you living on yesterdays experience? What fresh bread has God given you today? Thank Him for it. It is the daily bread you asked Him to give you.

GIVE US TODAY THE BREAD SUITED TO OUR NEEDS.
