What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
效法基督，与神同行

【读经】世人哪，耶和华已指示你何为善。他向你所要的是什么呢？只要你行公义，好怜悯，存谦卑的心，与你的 神同行。 (弥6:8 )
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah6:8 )
【默想】与神同行是所有基督徒的美好愿望，因为与神同在，自然是平安喜乐，一无挂虑，无所惧怕，一切都正确。这种无以伦比的福分哪些人能拥有呢？那就是“行公义，好怜悯，存谦卑的心”的人，而这三个内容“指标”的定义在神的手中，如此渺小有限的我们自然无法明白所有，但因着父神的怜悯，藉着道成肉身的基督耶稣，藉着祂就解释了这三个内容的定义，我们越是认识耶稣基督，就越是认识公义、怜悯和谦卑，祂与父神原为一，我们藉着子就看见了父。公义中最大的特点就是有罪必究，有债必还，耶稣基督为我们死在十字架上，这是神公义的彰显，但公义背后是神对世人的大怜悯和大爱；当我们仰望十字架上的耶稣，我们就明白了何为好怜悯何为爱（to love mercy）；当我们看到降尊为卑，神子作为人子的样式，活得如此卑微，并定意顺服父神要祂舍己为人的拯救计划，走上十字架时，我们才明白何为谦卑的心。
基督的门徒啊，让我们一起来效法基督，与神同行。

《圣经》(《The Holy Bible》)以赛亚书 Isaiah 42:5-7:
创造诸天，铺张穹苍，将地和地所出的一并铺开，赐气息给地上的众人，又赐灵性给行在其上之人的神耶和华，他如此说，我耶和华凭公义召你，必搀扶你的手，保守你，使你作众民的中保，（中保原文作约）作外邦人的光，开瞎子的眼，领被囚的出牢狱，领坐黑暗的出监牢。
This is what God the LORD says— the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it: “I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.
