「至於我和我家，我們必定事奉耶和華。」— 約書亞記 24:15

這句話，
不是一句家庭口號，
也不是一句祝福語。

而是一位親身經歷神的人，
所作出的堅定選擇。

約書亞親身體驗了神同在的恩典，
也見識了神的公義與審判。

因此，身為一家之主的他，
深知自己必須為家人的屬靈生命負起責任，
就是讓神成為家中真正的主。

因為唯有全家一同敬畏、事奉神，
才是蒙恩得救的道路。

而建立一個以神為中心的家庭，
並非一朝一夕就能成就，
而是在生活中細心栽培、日夜澆灌，
使一家人在信仰中扎根，
最終一同走在神所喜悅的道路上。

“But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” — Joshua 24:15

These words are not merely a family slogan,
nor are they simply words of blessing.

Rather, they were the choice of a man
who had personally experienced God.

Joshua had experienced the grace of God’s presence firsthand, and had witnessed both His righteousness and His judgment.

Therefore, as the head of his household,
he understood his responsibility before God —
to ensure that God remained the true Lord of his home.

For only when the whole family fears and serves God together can they walk in the way of salvation.

Building a God-centered family does not happen overnight, but is the result of careful nurturing and continual spiritual cultivation, so that the whole household may walk together in the way of the Lord.

人常常在不如意的时候怀念过去，以为从前的日子一定更好。回头看时，那些日子似乎总是比较温暖、比较顺利、也比较单纯。但《传道书》提醒我们：“不要说先前的日子强过如今的日子。”很多时候，我们不是因为过去真的更好，而是因为忘记了当时的挣扎，只记得那些美好的片段。其实，每一个阶段都有它的意义，每一段经历都在悄悄塑造今天的我们。

真正的智慧，不是一直停留在对过去的叹息，而是在今天继续信靠神。也许现在的道路没有从前那样轻松，但神从未离开；祂在每一个季节里工作，在我们看不见的时候，也在一点一点带领我们的生命成长。所以，与其怀念已经过去的日子，不如珍惜神赐下的今天，因为祂的恩典，从来都是在当下展开的。

People often long for the past when the present feels difficult, believing that the former days were somehow better. Looking back, those moments seem warmer, easier, and simpler. Yet Ecclesiastes reminds us: “Do not say, ‘Why were the former days better than these?’” Many times, it is not that the past was truly better. We have simply forgotten the struggles and remembered only the beautiful parts. In truth, every season carries its own meaning, and every experience quietly shapes who we are today.

True wisdom is not found in sighing over the past, but in trusting God in the present. The road today may not feel as easy as before, but God has never left us. He works in every season of life, even in ways we cannot see, gently shaping our journey step by step. Instead of longing for what has passed, we learn to cherish the day God has given us now because His grace is always unfolding in the present.

在人生的旅途中，我们会途经无数分岔路，也曾害怕一步走错，便满盘皆输。然而约翰福音14：6告诉我们，耶稣就是道路、真理、生命。

原来有一条路，一旦踏上，恩典与祝福便伴随一生。
祂是道路，所以我们永不迷失；
祂是真理，所以我们永不动摇；
祂是生命，所以我们永不枯竭。

这条路上或有风雨，但风雨中有平安；或有眼泪，但眼泪中有盼望。因我们所选择的，通往的不是短暂的风景，而是永恒的应许。

Throughout our life journey, We walk through life meeting crossroads and often fear that a misstep might lead to utter failure.

Yet John 14:6 tells us that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.

There is a path that, once taken, is accompanied by grace and blessings for a lifetime.
He is the way, so we shall never lose our direction;
He is the truth, so we shall never be shaken;
He is the life, so we shall never wither.

Rain may fall on this journey, but peace rides the storm; sorrow may visit, but hope lingers in every tear. For this path we walk leads not to fleeting sights, but to an everlasting promise.
