经文：耶利米哀歌 5:21
“耶和华啊，求你使我们向你回转，我们便得回转；求你复新我们的日子，像古时一样。”
灵修分享
有一个人，辛苦完成的设计被人盗取，对方竟反过来控告他抄袭。他满心委屈，所有心思都被这场争执占据，渐渐失去了创作的喜乐。
一位智者对他说：“你可以停止更新那套设计，对方就无法继续从你这里取得新的创意。你再重新开始吧。设计被拿走了，创造的能力却仍在你里面。”
这句话使他醒悟：他一直紧抓着被夺去的作品，却忘了自己仍有创作的能力。重新开始，要先从那场争执中转回，重新投入创作。
这也让我们思想：“求你使我们向你回转……求你复新我们的日子。”
耶路撒冷被毁后，百姓失去了家园，往日的生活已成废墟。他们在悲痛中向神呼求，求祂使他们回转，因为他们最需要恢复的，是与神的关系。神仍是他们生命与盼望的源头。
故事中的人，需要重新拿起画笔；而我们，更需要重新转向赐生命的神。受伤时，我们容易把目光停留在失去的事物上，甚至让委屈占满了心。但这节经文引导我们，在破碎中向神呼求：“求你使我们向你回转。”
“复新我们的日子”，是渴望再次经历与神同行的恩典。即使有些东西无法挽回，神仍能更新我们的心，使我们有力量继续爱、继续信靠、继续向前。
今日默想
我是否因紧抓过去的委屈，渐渐疏远了神？愿我今天转向祂，在祂里面重新得着向前的力量。
Return to the Source and Find New Strength

Scripture: Lamentations 5:21
“Restore us to yourself, LORD, that we may return; renew our days as of old.”
Devotional Reflection
A man’s design was stolen, and the person who stole it then accused him of plagiarism. Deeply hurt, he became consumed by the dispute and gradually lost the joy of creating.
A wise man told him, “You can stop updating that design, so the other person can no longer draw new ideas from your work. Begin again. Your design has been taken, but your ability to create is still within you.”
Those words opened his eyes. He had been holding so tightly to what was taken that he had forgotten he could still create. To begin again, he needed to turn his attention away from the dispute and return to his creative work.
This brings us to the prayer: “Restore us to yourself … renew our days.”
After Jerusalem was destroyed, the people lost their homes, and their former way of life lay in ruins. In their sorrow, they cried out to God to bring them back to Him. Their deepest need was the restoration of their relationship with God. He remained the source of their life and hope.
The man in the story needed to pick up his pencil again; we need to turn again to the God who gives us life. When we are hurt, we can become so focused on what we have lost that resentment fills our hearts. Yet this verse leads us to cry out amid our brokenness: “Restore us to yourself.”
“Renew our days” expresses a longing to experience once more the grace of walking with God. Even when some losses cannot be recovered, God can renew our hearts and give us strength to keep loving, keep trusting, and keep moving forward.
Today’s Reflection
Have I become distant from God because I am holding on to past hurts? May I turn to Him today and find fresh strength in His presence to move forward.
