Healing Choices: Be Teachable, Not Unreachable
有益的選擇:我們是可以受教的,而不是遙不可及
“If you accept correction, you will be honored” (Proverbs 13:18 NLT).
“如果接受別人的指正,你是值得尊敬的。”(箴言 13:18 )
Meekness means you have a teachable spirit. Meek people are eager to learn. They know they don’t know it all and they don’t try to pretend they know it all.
溫柔意味著你有一個受教的精神。溫柔的人渴望學習。他們明白自己不可能懂得全部,所以也不去假裝知道一切。
James 1:19 is one of my favorite Bible verses: “Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry” (NLT). It tells how to control your temper. In fact, if you do the first two, the third is automatic. When you’re quick to listen, and slow to speak, you will be slow to anger.
詹姆斯 1:19是我最喜歡圣經(jīng)中的一節(jié):“我親愛的兄弟姐妹們,明白這些:你們必須關(guān)于聆聽,言前三思,少怒。它告訴怎么控制你的脾氣。實際上,如果你做到了前面兩條,第三條就會自然達到。當你善于聆聽,三思而后言,當然你不易于發(fā)怒。
On the other hand, if we’re slow to listen and quick to speak, we’ll be quick to anger. We need to listen; use our ears; and be teachable, not unreachable.
另一方面,如果你不善于納諫而說話不加考慮,當然易于生氣。我們需要用耳朵去聆聽,因為我們可以受教,可以改正。
