爱人不可虚假、恶要厌恶、善要亲近。 爱弟兄、要彼此亲热．恭敬人、要彼此推让。 殷勤不可懒惰．要心里火热．常常服事主。 在指望中要喜乐．在患难中要忍耐。祷告要恒切． 圣徒缺乏要帮补．客要一味的款待。
English
Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

罗马书 12 把真诚的爱、盼望、忍耐、祷告和接待连在一起。坚持不是一个人的硬撑，也可以在彼此帮助中成为持续的生活方式。 等待已经很久，我开始失去耐心。恒切不是压住失望；在盼望中诚实表达，也珍惜今天仍可承担的责任。今天可以从一个小而具体的回应开始：做一件今天能完成的小事，再留时间休息。 感受值得被承认，但感受不是全部事实。试着区分已经发生的事、自己的解释和还不知道的部分。
English
Romans 12 connects sincere love, hope, patience, prayer, and hospitality. Perseverance need not mean solitary endurance; mutual care can sustain it as a way of life. I have waited a long time and am losing patience. Perseverance does not suppress disappointment. Speak honestly in hope and care for today's responsibilities. Begin with a small concrete response today: Finish one small task possible today and leave time for rest. Feelings deserve acknowledgment, but they are not the whole story. Distinguish what happened, your interpretation, and what remains unknown.

天父，等待已经很久，我开始失去耐心。赐我诚实面对感受的勇气，也赐我分辨事实与猜测的耐心。 奉耶稣的名，阿们。
