雅各家、以色列家一切余剩的、要听我言、你们自从生下、就蒙我保抱、自从出胎、便蒙我怀搋。 直到你们年老、我仍这样、直到你们发白、我仍怀搋。我已造作、也必保抱、我必怀抱、也必拯救。
English
Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb: And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
在生活中默想 · 灵修解释 · Reflecting in daily life · Devotional interpretation
以赛亚书 46 在对比偶像与神的语境中，强调神对其百姓长久的看顾。默想年长与照护时，应记住这里谈的是神持续的信实。 我想把经历告诉年轻人，却担心自己只是在重复往事。回顾可以成为邀请，而不是要求别人照走同一条路。故事里也可以保留遗憾与仍在学习的事。 今天的一小步：分享一个选择及学到的功课，再听听对方正在面对什么。 回应经文不一定是宏大的决定。一个能在今天完成的小行动，可能比笼统地要求自己改变更诚实。
English
Isaiah 46 contrasts idols with God and emphasizes lasting care for God's people. Reflection on aging and caregiving should remember the passage's focus on continuing faithfulness. I want to share experience with younger people but fear merely repeating old stories. Remembrance can invite rather than demand the same path. Stories can include regret and continuing learning. A small step today: Share one decision and its lesson, then ask what the other person is facing. Responding to Scripture need not mean a grand decision. One achievable action today may be more honest than a vague promise to change.
