고난은 기회입니다. (6)

"고난의 유익은 그 고난을 통하여 내가 하나님 보시기에 그릇행하였다는 것을 깨닫는 것과 하나님의 법을 배우게 된 것과 이제부터 하나님의 말씀을 지키게 된 것입니다(시 119:67, 71). 이러한 깨달음(나의 죄)과 배움(하나님의 말씀)과 지킴( 말씀 순종)이 없는 고난은 무익합니다." 1. 깨달음: 교만함(시119:69), 그릇 행함(67절), 마음의 살찜과 기름덩이(70절) [마음에 지방을 제거하라!: https://blog.naver.com/kdicaprio74/150112959844] 2. 배움: 자녀들의 위기를 통해 저는 선하신 주님께서(68절) 저를 선대하사(65절) 가르쳐주신(68절) 시편 63편 3절 말씀과 베드로전서 5장 10절 말씀을 배우게 되었습니다(71절).

Even if our beloved family members are suffering to the point of death ...  

Even if our beloved family members

are suffering to the point of death ...

 

 

In His great agony, as He neared death,

Jesus fell with His face to the ground

and prayed to God the Father,

saying, "Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me.

Yet, not as I will, but as You will."

When He returned to His three disciples—Peter, James, and John—

He found them asleep, having been unable

to stay awake and pray with Him for even one hour.

Jesus said to them,

"Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."

Despite this, after going away again

 to pray and plead with God the Father,

Jesus returned to find them "so very tired and asleep again"

(Matthew 26:38-43, Korean Modern Bible).

Even when a dearly loved family member

is in agony to the point of death,

we may deeply desire to pray earnestly for them,

yet when we are extremely tired,

we find ourselves falling asleep while praying.

This shows that even the deep love for a family member

can lead us into temptation due to our weaknesses.
