BAIBEL I TOK

King Devit i tok: “Wanem taim bai yu pinisim dispela pen mi save karim? Hamas de na nait bel hevi bilong mi i mas i stap?” (Song 13:2) Wanem samting i helpim Devit long karim hevi bilong tingting planti? Em i beten long God na kamapim tingting bilong em, na em i bilip strong olsem God bai marimari long em. (Song 13:5; 62:8) God i tokim yumi long kamapim olgeta hevi bilong yumi long Em.

No ken tingim ol popaia bilong yu: Long taim bilong ol aposel, paslain long sampela i kamap Kristen ol i save stil, dring planti, pulim ol samting bilong ol arapela, na mekim pasin pamuk. (1 Korin 6:9-11) Tasol ol i no tingim ol popaia bilong ol long bipo, nogat. Ol i senisim ol pasin bilong ol na bilip olsem God i gat bikpela pasin marimari, olsem na em i fogivim ol. Long Song 130:4, Baibel i tok: “Yu [God] save rausim ol sin bilong mipela, olsem na mipela i mas pret long yu.”

No ken tingting planti long neks de: Jisas Krais i tok: “No ken tingting planti long ol samting bilong de antap, long wanem, de antap bai i gat ol wari bilong en.” (Matyu 6:25, 34) Wanem insait bilong dispela tok?

Na tu, tingim olsem sampela samting yu tingting planti long en em ol liklik hevi tasol.

Long wanem, God i tok: ‘Mi no inap tru long lusim yu o givim baksait long yu long wanpela samting.’” Mani kago i no inap helpim yu, tasol yu inap bilip olsem God bai lukautim yu sapos yu mekim wok bilong en na yu amamas long ol samting yu gat pinis.
