一串珍珠项链 A Pearl Necklace

我们晓得万事都互相效力﹐叫爱神的人得益处﹐就是按他旨意被召的人。（罗马书8:28)

“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”  (Rom8:28)

把所有的珍珠串起来的那根线是神对我们完美的意念。祂在我们生命的计划和目标，安排那形形色色的珍珠成为一串项链，那是一串永远颂赞祂荣耀的项链。

The string that binds all the pearls together is God’s perfect will for us.   His plans and purposes for our lives arrange the diverse pearls onto a necklace that will forever sing of His glories.

所以弟兄们﹐我以神的慈悲劝你们﹐将身体献上﹐当作活祭﹐是圣洁的﹐是神所喜悦的。你们如此事奉﹐乃是理所当然的。不要效法这个世界。只要心意更新而变化﹐叫你们察验何为神的善良﹐纯全可喜悦的旨意。（罗马书12:1-2)

“Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.  And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.”  (Rom 12:1-2)
