只把我所有的给你
使徒行传3:6
这个故事告诉我们两件事第一:知道你自己有什么和没有什么是非常重要的彼得说:金银我都没有,只把我所有的给你我们必须对自己有清晰的认知,也要明白自己生命的呼召保罗写道:不要看自己过于所当看的,看得合乎中道上帝透过他的恩典,给每个人的恩赐各有不同如果我们的恩赐是讲道,就要尽最大能力去讲道;如果我们的恩赐是服侍,就当专一地服侍他人,不要试图掌控;如果我们的恩赐是作劝化的,就当将自己所知道的专一劝化别人,而不是去操纵奉献的,便要无私地去给予让每一个人诚实甘心地尽自己所能让我们效法基督的爱,爱人不可虚假:恶要厌恶,善要亲近(罗马书12:3-9)
第二:学会分辨人们想要的东西和切实需要之间的差别有的时候人们需要被坚固,而有的时候人们需要被改变有时人们需要安慰,而不是被纠正,而有些时候人们需要走出自己的舒适地带,乐于接受纠正这个瘸腿的人需要的不是周济,而是能站起来而站起来恰恰就是彼得给他的礼物他拉着他的右手,扶他起来,他的脚和踝骨马上恢复健壮(使徒行传3:7)所以,为了帮助别人,我们必须学会爱人分辨别人的需要,从而给予真正的帮助

How to Help People (2)英文版朗读音频
What I do have I give you.
Acts 3:6 NKJV
otice two things in this story. First: its important to know what you have and what you dont have. Peter said,Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. You must become comfortable in your own skin and confident in your calling. Paul writes: Dont cherish exaggerated ideas of yourself or your importance, but try to have a sane estimate of your capabilities by the light of the faith that God has given to you all Through the grace of God we have different gifts. If our gift is preaching, let us preach to the limit of our vision. If it is serving others let us concentrate on our service; if it is teaching let us give all we have Let the man who is called to give, give freely; let the man who wields authority think of his responsibility Love must be sincere. Let us have a genuine break with evil and a real devotion to good. (Romans 12:69 PHPS)
Second: learn to recognize the difference between what people want and what they truly need. Sometimes they need to be strengthened; other times they need to be stretched. Sometimes they need comfort, not correction; other times they need correction, not comfort. This lame man didnt need a handouthe needed a hand up. And thats what Peter gave him. He took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. (Acts 3:7 NKJV) So, in order to help people you must love them, recognize what they need, know what you have to offer, and connect with them at the point of their need.
