Thanksgiving Month Introduction...

Psalm 119:57-64
（Memorization Scripture 62-64）
57 You are my portion, O Lord;
I have said that I would keep Your words.
58 I entreated Your favor with my whole heart;
Be merciful to me according to Your word.
59 I thought about my ways,
And turned my feet to Your testimonies.
60 I made haste, and did not delay
To keep Your commandments.
61 The cords of the wicked have bound me,
But I have not forgotten Your law.
62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks to You,
Because of Your righteous judgments.
63 I am a companion of all who fear You,
And of those who keep Your precepts.
64 The earth, O Lord, is full of Your mercy;
Teach me Your statutes.

【Reflection】Thank the Lord for giving us His Word, so that we may know Him, follow Him, and obey His Word throughout our lives. The psalmist thanks the Lord for His Word, revealing the psalmist's profound understanding and experience of God's Word. By obeying God's Word, we can experience that the Lord is our portion and grace. His Word not only guides us on the path ahead but also delivers us from the snares of the wicked. Let us give thanks to Him for His Word, delight in His Word, long for His Word, obey His Word, and immerse ourselves in the abundant love of our Lord. “If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.” (John 15:10a)

【感恩月簡介】...

詩篇 119:57-64
(背誦經文:62-64)
57 耶和華是我的福分，我曾說，我要遵守你的言語。
58 我一心求過你的恩，願你照你的話憐憫我。
59 我思想我所行的道，就轉步歸向你的法度。
60 我急忙遵守你的命令，並不遲延。
61 惡人的繩索纏繞我，我卻沒有忘記你的律法。
62 我因你公義的典章，半夜必起來稱謝你。
63 凡敬畏你、守你訓詞的人，我都與他做伴。
64 耶和華啊，你的慈愛遍滿大地，求你將你的律例教訓我。

【心得分享】感謝主，把祂的話語賜給我們，叫我們可以認識祂、跟隨祂、一生遵行祂的話。 詩人因著 神的話稱謝耶和華，讓我們看見詩人對 神的話有何等的認識和體會。因著遵守 神的話，我們就可以經歷耶和華是我們的福分和恩典。祂的話不單指引我們前面的道路，也救我們脫離惡人的繩索。讓我們爲著 神的話稱謝祂，以 神的話爲樂、愛慕 神的話、遵行 神的話，以至於沉浸在主那豐滿的慈愛中。「你們若遵守我的命令，就常在我的愛裡。」（約15:10a）
