梦游圣经66本书

2026年9月8日｜灵修经文：使徒行传 2:46–47

「他们天天同心合意恒切地在殿里，且在家中擘饼，存着欢喜诚实的心用饭，赞美神，得众民的喜爱。主将得救的人天天加给他们。」
——使徒行传 2:46–47

今天是教会家庭营的最后一天。

这次家庭营的主题是：

同心同行！为主发光！

清晨醒来时，我想起梦中的一幅画面。

梦里，一群人组成了一个大家庭。

特别的是，他们当中有些人过去彼此为敌。他们来自不同背景，带着不同经历，也带着过去的矛盾、伤害与隔阂。

然而，他们没有继续停留在敌对的位置，而是学习放下防备、彼此接纳，在差异中学习合一，在不容易的关系中选择继续同行。

渐渐地，他们成为了一家人。

而当他们走在一起时，开始共同面对一个问题：

我们的未来在哪里？
我们要一起走向哪里？

这让我想到《使徒行传》中的初代教会：

「他们天天同心合意……」

同心合意，并不代表每个人都完全一样。

五旬节那天，最初信主的主要是犹太人和归信犹太教的人，但他们从各地来到耶路撒冷，说着不同的语言，有着不同的地域和成长背景。

圣灵降临时，一个很特别的神迹发生了：

不同语言的人，却听见同一个福音。

神没有先消除他们语言和背景的不同，而是在这些不同之中，把他们带到基督里成为一个群体。

于是，他们一起敬拜、擘饼、用饭、赞美神，开始学习「同心合意」地生活。

后来，随着福音不断传开，这个家变得更大。

福音临到撒玛利亚，也临到外邦人；原本彼此隔绝的人，也因着基督被带进同一个家。

正如保罗所说：

「我们虽多，仍是一个饼，一个身体，因为我们都是分受这一个饼。」
——哥林多前书 10:17

这使我更深地想到梦中的画面：

神所建立的家，从来不是因为大家完全相同，而是因为不同的人都被带到同一位主面前。

不同语言，却听见同一个福音；
不同背景，却成为同一个身体；
不同过去，却开始走向神所预备的共同未来。

正如《以弗所书》所说：

「因祂使我们和睦，将两下合而为一，拆毁了中间隔断的墙。」
——以弗所书 2:14

真正的合一，不是没有差异，也不是假装过去从未发生，而是不再让过去决定未来。

有些伤害需要医治，
有些关系需要时间修复，
有些差异也不会完全消失。

但当我们一起把目光转向神，就不再只是反复追问：

「过去谁对谁错？」
「谁伤害了谁？」

而是开始一起寻求：

「主啊，祢要把我们带到哪里？」

这也许正是梦中最触动我的地方：

他们曾经是仇敌，如今却开始一起寻找共同的未来。

当一个群体开始仰望神所预备的未来，过去的仇恨就不再拥有最后的话语权。

因为：

神所赐共同的未来，可以大过彼此不同的过去。

今天家庭营结束了，但「同心同行」的呼召并没有结束。

《使徒行传》告诉我们，当信徒这样生活时，他们「得众民的喜爱」，而「主将得救的人天天加给他们」。

合一本身，就是一种见证。

世界常常因为语言、背景、立场、历史和伤害而分裂。

但当世人看见一群原本不同的人，因为基督能够彼此相爱；看见曾经疏远的人能够坐在同一张桌子前；甚至看见曾经敌对的人开始彼此接纳、彼此同行，他们就会看见一种不属于这个世界的光。

这就是：

同心同行，为主发光。

主耶稣说：

「你们是世上的光。」
——马太福音 5:14

我们发光，不是因为我们完全，也不是因为我们没有冲突，而是因为基督住在我们里面，使我们能够在差异中彼此相爱，在困难中彼此扶持，在分裂之处重新学习同行。

也许这个梦正在提醒我：

不要只寻找与自己相同的人同行，
也要看见神正在组成的那个更大的家。

家庭营结束之后，愿我们不只记得这几天的欢笑与感动，更把所领受的爱与合一带回每天的生活：

继续同心，
继续同行，
继续彼此守望，
继续为主发光。

主啊，

求祢使我们成为这样的家：

不是没有差异，而是在差异中仍选择彼此相爱；

不是没有过去，而是不再让过去辖制我们的未来；

不是各自寻找道路，而是同心寻求祢所预备的方向；

不是只在营会中短暂合一，而是在每天的生活中持续同行。

求祢拆毁我们中间隔断的墙，

使疏远的重新靠近，
使分裂的重新合一，
使曾经敌对的成为家人。

让我们同心、同桌、同行，

一起走向祢为我们预备的未来，
一起成为祢手中的光，
一起为祢作美好的见证。

阿们。

From Enemies to Family, Walking Together as One, Shining for the Lord

September 8, 2026｜Devotional Scripture: Acts 2:46–47

“Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.”
—Acts 2:46–47

Today is the final day of our church family camp.

The theme of this camp is:

Walking Together as One! Shining for the Lord!

When I woke up this morning, I remembered a scene from my dream.

In the dream, a group of people formed a big family.

What was striking was that some of them had once been enemies. They came from different backgrounds, carried different experiences, and bore past conflicts, wounds, and divisions.

Yet they did not remain in hostility. They learned to lay down their defenses, to accept one another, to pursue unity amid differences, and to choose to keep walking together even through difficult relationships.

Gradually, they became a family.

And as they walked together, they began facing one question:

Where is our future?
Where are we going together?

This reminded me of the early church in the Book of Acts:

“They continued with one accord every day…”

To be “of one accord” does not mean everyone was exactly the same.

On the day of Pentecost, the first believers were mainly Jews and converts to Judaism, but they came from many regions, spoke different languages, and carried different cultural and life backgrounds.

When the Holy Spirit came, a remarkable miracle happened:

People of different languages heard the same gospel.

God did not first erase their linguistic or cultural differences. Instead, He brought them together within those differences, forming one community in Christ.

So they worshiped together, broke bread together, ate together, praised God together, and began learning how to live “with one accord.”

Later, as the gospel continued to spread, this family grew even larger.

The gospel reached Samaritans and Gentiles; people who had once been separated were brought into the same household through Christ.

Just as Paul said:

“For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of the one bread.”
—1 Corinthians 10:17

This made me think even more deeply about the scene in my dream:

The family God builds is never formed because everyone is the same, but because different people are brought before the same Lord.

Different languages, yet hearing the same gospel;
Different backgrounds, yet becoming one body;
Different pasts, yet walking toward the same future God prepares.

As Ephesians says:

“For He Himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility.”
—Ephesians 2:14

True unity is not the absence of differences, nor pretending the past never happened. It is choosing not to let the past define the future.

Some wounds need healing,
some relationships need time to be restored,
and some differences will not fully disappear.

But when we turn our eyes together toward God, we stop repeatedly asking:

“Who was right or wrong?”
“Who hurt whom?”

And begin asking:

“Lord, where are You leading us?”

This is perhaps the part of the dream that moved me most:

They had once been enemies, yet now they were seeking a shared future.

When a community begins to look toward the future God prepares, past hatred no longer has the final word.

Because:

The future God gives can be greater than the different pasts we carry.

Family camp ends today, but the call to “walk together as one” does not end.

Acts tells us that when believers live this way, they “enjoy the favor of all the people,” and “the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.”

Unity itself is a testimony.

The world often divides because of language, background, positions, history, and hurt.

But when people see a group who were once different loving one another because of Christ; when they see those once distant sitting at the same table; when they see those once hostile beginning to accept and walk with one another—they witness a light not of this world.

This is:

Walking together as one, shining for the Lord.

Jesus said:

“You are the light of the world.”
—Matthew 5:14

We shine not because we are perfect or conflict-free, but because Christ lives in us—enabling us to love through differences, support one another in difficulties, and learn to walk together where there has been division.

Perhaps this dream is reminding me:

Do not only look for people who are similar to you,
but see the bigger family God is forming.

As family camp ends, may we not only remember the laughter and touching moments of these days, but bring the love and unity we received into our daily lives:

Continue in one accord,
Continue walking together,
Continue watching over one another,
Continue shining for the Lord.

Lord,

Make us such a family:

Not without differences, but choosing to love amid them;

Not without a past, but refusing to let the past control our future;

Not each seeking our own way, but seeking the direction You prepare;

Not united only during camp, but continuing in unity every day.

Tear down the dividing walls among us,

Bring the distant close again,
Restore the divided into unity,
Make former enemies into family.

Let us be of one heart, one table, one journey—

Walking toward the future You have prepared,
Becoming the light in Your hand,
Bearing beautiful witness for You.

Amen.
