【4.15】单身:拥抱神的旨意Singleness: Embracing God’s Purpose


“我愿意众人像我一样(守独身);只是各人领受 神的恩赐,一个是这样,一个是那样。” – 林前 7:7

单身并是一个需要忍受的阶段,而是一份需要拥抱的礼物。单身的人有一个独特的机会,可以全心全意地关注他们与神的关系,以及神对他们生命的旨意。

单身的人可以全心全意地事奉神,探索自己的激情所在,使用自己的时间和资源造福他人。单身能让人与神建立更深的亲密关系,并在生活中充分追求神的呼召。

虽然社会可能强调浪漫的关系,但神看到了单身的价值和潜力。祂用独特的天赋和机会装备我们,让我们在世界上有所作为。让我们记住,我们的价值不是由我们的婚姻状况决定的,而是由我们作为神所爱儿女的身份决定的。

如果你是单身,请寻求神的指引,将你的愿望和计划交托在祂爱的手中。求神赐给你智慧,使用你的单身来荣耀祂,投入到有意义的关系中,服侍他人,分享基督的爱。

祷告

亲爱的神,感谢你赐予我们单身的恩赐。帮助所有拥有这份礼物的人完全拥抱它,寻求你的旨意并服侍他人。赐予我们知足、智慧和与你的亲密关系。为着你的荣耀,使用我们每一个人去成就你在这世上的旨意。奉耶稣的名,阿们。

哥林多前书 7:7-9

7我愿意众人像我一样,只是各人领受神的恩赐一个是这样,一个是那样。
8我对着没有嫁娶的和寡妇说,若他们常像我就好。
9倘若自己禁止不住,就可以嫁娶。与其欲火攻心,倒不如嫁娶为妙。

Singleness: Embracing God’s Purpose

“I wish that all of you were [unmarried] as I am. But each of you has your own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.” – 1 Corinthians 7:7

Singleness is not a season to be endured but a gift to be embraced. People who are single have a unique opportunity to focus wholeheartedly on their relationship with God and his purposes for their lives.

A single person can serve the Lord with undivided devotion, exploring their passions, and using their time and resources to serve for the benefit of others. Singleness allows a person to develop a deeper intimacy with God and to fully pursue God’s calling in their life.

Though society may emphasize romantic relationships, God sees the value and potential in being single. He equips us with unique gifts and opportunities to make a difference in the world. Let’s remember that our worth is not defined by our marital status but by our identity as beloved children of God.

If you are single, seek God’s guidance, surrendering your desires and plans into his loving hands. Ask God for wisdom in using your singleness to glorify him and invest in meaningful relationships, serving others and sharing the love of Christ.

Prayer

Dear God, thank you for the gift of singleness. Help all who have this gift to embrace it fully, seeking your purpose and serving others. Grant us contentment, wisdom, and intimacy with you. Use each one of us for your glory and purpose in this world. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
