Healing Choices: Be Teachable, Not Unreachable
有益的选择:我们是可以受教的,而不是遥不可及
“If you accept correction, you will be honored” (Proverbs 13:18 NLT).
“如果接受别人的指正,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.
温柔意味着你有一个受教的精神。温柔的人渴望学习。他们明白自己不可能懂得全部,所以也不去假装知道一切。
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是我最喜欢圣经中的一节:“我亲爱的兄弟姐妹们,明白这些:你们必须关于聆听,言前三思,少怒。它告诉怎么控制你的脾气。实际上,如果你做到了前面两条,第三条就会自然达到。当你善于聆听,三思而后言,当然你不易于发怒。
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,如果你不善于纳谏而说话不加考虑,当然易于生气。我们需要用耳朵去聆听,因为我们可以受教,可以改正。
