你们若是热心行善、有谁害你们呢。 你们就是为义受苦、也是有福的．不要怕人的威吓、也不要惊慌． 只要心里尊主基督为圣．有人问你们心中盼望的缘由、就要常作准备、以温柔敬畏的心回答各人． 存着无亏的良心、叫你们在何事上被毁谤、就在何事上、可以叫那诬赖你们在基督里有好品行的人、自觉羞愧。 神的旨意若是叫你们因行善受苦、总强如因行恶受苦。
English
And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? But and if ye suffer for righteousness’ sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ. For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.

彼得前书这段谈到在压力中持守盼望，并以温柔和敬畏作出回应。分享信仰的方式，应与所表达的盼望相称。 我谈论信仰，却意识到自己答应别人的事还没有完成。回应所持守的盼望，也包括日常品行。诚实修复一个失约，使所说的话更有根基。 今天的一小步：联系受影响的人，说明延误并完成一个明确的补救。 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
This passage in 1 Peter addresses holding hope under pressure and responding with gentleness and reverence. The manner of sharing faith should fit the hope being expressed. I speak about faith but realize I have not kept a promise. An account of hope also involves conduct. Repairing a broken promise gives words a firmer footing. A small step today: Contact the person affected, explain the delay, and complete a clear repair. Feelings deserve acknowledgment, but they are not the whole story. Distinguish what happened, your interpretation, and what remains unknown.

天父，我谈论信仰，却意识到自己答应别人的事还没有完成。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。

Father, I speak about faith but realize I have not kept a promise. Give me courage to face my feelings and patience to separate facts from assumptions. In Jesus' name, amen.
