GUEST DEVOTIONS
ENGLISH AND CHINESE
Are you stuck in the cell-phone cycle?
你是否深陷于手机网络之中？
You promise yourself that you don’t need it.
你告诉自己你不需要它。
It’s just a simple tool connecting you to the outside world that is not always necessary.
你认为它不过是一个简单的工具，能让你与外界保持联系，但你并不总是需要这个功能。
Yet you cannot seem to disconnect yourself long enough without having sweat bead up on your forehead or in the palm of your hands.
然而，你却无法长时间离开它，你使用它直到额头上或手掌中沁出汗珠才会停止。
What is a teen to do?
青少年会怎么办？
A text tone tips you to a new message.
短信提示音提示有一条新消息到达。
Do you answer it right away or let it sit there blinking its “new message” status light?
你是立即回复，还是让 “新消息”状态灯一直闪个不停？
2 / 6
Chances are that if you are like most teens, the desire to find out who is behind the blinking is greater than the urge to remain calm, cool, and ignore the demand to respond immediately to the questioner.
有很大可能你会和大多数青少年一样，想知道是谁发送了那条正在闪烁的信息的愿望，会比保持冷静、淡定并忽略立即回复的想法更加强烈。
Are you becoming a slave to such technology?
你是否正在成为这种技术的奴隶？
Do you desire to be free from the frenzy?
你是否渴望摆脱这种疯狂状态？
If so, I suggest that you detox yourself starting with minimizing the frequency to which you immediately respond to messages.
如果是这样，我建议你从减少立即回复消息的次数开始“数字排毒”。
How about leaving your phone behind for one day to help establish a new habit.
何不尝试将手机放在一边一天，以培养新的习惯。
Impossible you say!
你可能会说这不可能！
3 / 6
No, not if you make a conscious effort and decision to break away from the slave master.
不，只要你做出有意识的努力和决定，要摆脱这种奴役，就并非不可能。
Take a look at Daniel.
看看但以理。
Here is a teen who was taken from his homeland and forced to obey a new master, King Nebuchadnezzar.
他是一个被从故乡带走并被迫服待新主人——尼布甲尼撒王的少年。
Not only was the king a little arrogant, but also highly demanding calling forth the smartest, best looking, and fastest learners to become his own personal slaves of the palace.
这位国王不仅有些傲慢，而且要求极高，他挑选最聪明、最英俊、学习最快的人成为他宫廷的私人奴隶。
They were to eat only the finest foods, drink the most delicate drinks, and enter into a three-year training program on how to become a proper slave to the king.
他们只能食用最好的食物，饮用最精致的饮品，并接受为期三年的培训，学习如何成为国王的合格奴隶。
4 / 6
“But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.” (Daniel 1:8)
“但以理决心不让御用的佳肴美酒玷污自己，所以求太监长帮助他，使他不用玷污自己。”（但以理书1:8 和合本译文）
Daniel chose to obey his true master, God, while at the same time refusing the potential distractions that would weaken his body.
但以理选择顺从他真正的主人——上帝，同时拒绝了那些可能使他体质变弱的潜在诱惑。
The more time you spend submerged into an online world of conversation, the more you will miss from what is happening right around you.
你花在沉浸于在线交流世界的时间越长，你就会越多地错过身边正在发生的事情。
Will you become like Daniel and chose the real master to obey or will you continue to be a slave to messenger?
你会像但以理一样选择顺从真正的主人，还是继续做信息的奴隶？

HAVE YOU BEEN FRUITFUL?
你结出果实了吗？
-Spurgeon, "Sown Among Thorns"
——斯普尔根，《在荆棘中播种》
I would put it to you, my dear hearer, have you been fruitful?
我要问你，我亲爱的听众，你是否结出了果实？
Have you been fruitful with your wealth?
你是否依靠你的财富结了果？
Have you been fruitful with your talent?
你是否使用你的才华结出了果实？
Have you been fruitful with your time?
你是否利用你的时间结了果？
What are you doing for Jesus now?
现在，你正为耶稣做什么？
Salvation is not by doings, you are saved by grace.
得救不是靠行为，依靠恩典你被拯救。
But if you are so saved, prove it by your devoted life.
6 / 6
既是你如此得救，就奉献你的生命，证明你的得救。
Consecrate yourself anew this day wholly to your Master's
service.
今天，于主的事工上，全新全然奉献你自己。
You are not your own, but bought with a price,
你不属自己所有，你已被重价赎回，
and if you would not be like these thorn-choked seeds,
如果你不想成为这些被荆棘窒息的种子，
live while you live, with all-consuming zeal.
就以全心全意的热诚，活在你活着的时候。
"The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns
is the man who hears the word, but the worries of this life
and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful."
Matthew 13:22
“撒在荆棘里的，就是人听了道，后来有世上的思虑、钱财的迷惑把道挤住了，不能结实。” （马太福音13:22 和合本译文）

Boasting About Tomorrow
James 4:13-17
Today or tomorrow, we go,
Into a town and spend a year;
Making a profit you don’t know,
What tomorrow brings is not clear.
What’s your life a mist that appears,
For a short time then vanishes;
Filled with mystery and fears,
Polished like new then tarnishes.
If the Lord wills, then we shall live,
As you boast in your arrogance;
Boasting is an evil captive,
Having no form of elegance.
For all such boasting is evil,
Therefore, you should how to do good;
It is a sin of the devil,
Nothing that Jesus ever would.
