Has anyone ever broken a promise to you? Have you ever broken a promise you made to someone?
有人曾經對你食言過嗎？你曾經對別人食言嗎？
Isaiah was a person who knew a lot about promises. He lived about 2700 years ago, and he was a prophet. During Isaiahʼs time, the people of God were under attack. People from other countries were trying to kill them and take their land. God promised his people, through Isaiah, that he would send a Savior. The people waited, and waited, and after awhile became angry with God. They thought he had broken his promise to them. Have you ever felt this way? Godʼs timing and Godʼs plan can be different from what we want. But God is faithful. He keeps his promises, even when people sometimes doubt him.
以賽亞是一位相當了解應許的人，他是距今兩千七百多年前的一位先知。以賽亞的時代，上帝的子民遭受攻擊，來自許多國家的軍隊要殺害他們，奪取他們的土地。上帝透過先知以賽亞告訴祂的百姓，祂將差遣一位救主到他們那裡。百姓們等了又等。久了之後，他們開始遷怒於上帝，他們認為上帝沒有兌現祂的應許。你是否也曾經有過這樣的感受？上帝的計劃和時間表往往與我們所想要的不同。然而，上帝仍是信實的，祂的百姓懷疑時，祂仍堅守祂的應許。
“Remember your promise to me, your servant; it has given me hope. Even in my suffering I was comforted because your promise gave me life.”～ Psalms 119:49-50
