Day 10 Psalm 40:1-5

1 I waited patiently for the Lord; he inclined to me and heard my cry.
2 He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure.
3 He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord.
4 Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust, who does not turn to the proud, to those who go astray after a lie!
5 You have multiplied, O Lord my God, your wondrous deeds and your thoughts toward us; none can compare with you! I will proclaim and tell of them, yet they are more than can be told.

Reflection: Our God hears our prayers and transforms our lives. He lifts us out of the “pit of destruction” and the “miry bog,” and sets our feet firmly upon the rock. He fills our mouths with a new song—a song of praise for His mighty works—so that those around us may see His grace, stand in awe, and turn to trust in the Lord. God’s work in us is not a one-time rescue; He continually reveals His wonders and His thoughts toward us—so many that they cannot be numbered. Let us praise Him for His marvelous deeds and learn to trust Him even as we wait, for He surely hears, and He surely acts with grace.

Day10 詩篇40:1-5

1 我曾耐性等候耶和華，祂垂聽我的呼求。
2 祂從禍坑裡、從淤泥中、把我拉上來，使我的腳立在磐石上，使我腳步穩當。
3祂使我口唱新歌，就是讚美我們　神的話，許多人必看見而懼怕，並要倚靠耶和華。
4 那倚靠耶和華、不理會狂傲和偏向虛假之輩的，這人便為有福。
5 耶和華我的　神啊，你所行的奇事、並你向我們所懷的意念甚多，不能向你陳明。若要陳明，其事不可勝數。

【心得分享】我們的 神垂聽我們的禱告，翻轉我們的生命，將我們從「禍坑」與「淤泥」中拉上來。我們要一起來唱「新歌」讚美神的作為，使周圍的人因看見祂的恩典而生敬畏，轉而倚靠耶和華。神的作為不止於一次的拯救，而是不斷在我們生命中顯明祂的奇事與心意——多到數不盡、說不完。讓我們因祂的奇事讚美祂，並在等待中學習信靠，因祂必垂聽、必施恩。
