法 利 賽 人 問 ： 神 的 國 幾 時 來 到 ？ 耶 穌 回 答 說 ： 神 的 國 來 到 不 是 眼 所 能 見 的 。 人 也 不 得 說 ： 看 哪 ， 在 這 裡 ！ 看 哪 ， 在 那 裡 ！ 因 為 神 的 國 就 在 你 們 心 裡 。(路 加 福 音 17:20-21)

這個星期我們將要一同藉著袁立揚醫師夫婦及其兒子袁幼軒Christopher Yuan 傳道的生命見證，來看見慈愛的天父祂｢脫胎換骨｣的復活大能。

問題討論:

2.    你現在的生活有哪些重擔?

3.    你願意在生活上做什麼樣的改變來成為神更合用的器皿?

Once, having been asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is within you.” (Luke 17:20-21)

Homework

As you say grace at every meal, write down your prayers, at least 5 of them. (Hint: Use different perspectives to see God and yourself. Expand your views, and from there be creative.) Ask yourself constantly, have my prayers improved?

This week we will witness how the Lord changes and grant new lives through the testimonies of Dr. and Mrs. Li-Yang Yuan, and their son Christopher Yuan.

Questions:

1.   Has your life ever been touched by God? Have you ever received guidance from Him?

2.   What are the burdens you have in your life?

3.   What are you willing to change in your life to become a better tool for God?
