1:1 起初，神創造天地。 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
1:2 地是空虛混沌，淵面黑暗；神的靈運行在水面上。 Now the earth was 1:2 Or possibly ((became)) formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 1:3 神說：要有光，就有了光。 And God said, <<Let there be light,>> and there was light. 1:4 神看光是好的，就把光暗分開了。 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 1:5 神稱光為晝，稱暗為夜。有晚上，有早晨，這是頭一日。 God called the light <<day,>> and the darkness he called <<night.>> And there was evening, and there was morning--the first day. 1:6 神說：諸水之間要有空氣，將水分為上下。 And God said, <<Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water.>> 1:7 神就造出空氣，將空氣以下的水、空氣以上的水分開了。事就這樣成了。 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 1:8 神稱空氣為天。有晚上，有早晨，是第二日。 God called the expanse <<sky.>> And there was evening, and there was morning--the second day. 1:9 神說：天下的水要聚在一處，使旱地露出來。事就這樣成了。 And God said, <<Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.>> And it was so. 1:10 神稱旱地為地，稱水的聚處為海。神看著是好的。 God called the dry ground <<land,>> and the gathered waters he called <<seas.>> And God saw that it was good. 1:11 神說：地要發生青草和結種子的菜蔬，並結果子的樹木，各從其類，果子都包著核。事就這樣成了。 Then God said, <<Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.>> And it was so. 1:12 於是地發生了青草和結種子的菜蔬，各從其類；並結果子的樹木，各從其類；果子都包著核。神看著是好的。 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 1:13 有晚上，有早晨，是第三日。 And there was evening, and there was morning--the third day. 1:14 神說：天上要有光體，可以分晝夜，作記號，定節令、日子、年歲， And God said, <<Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, 1:15 並要發光在天空，普照在地上。事就這樣成了。 and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.>> And it was so. 1:16 於是神造了兩個大光，大的管晝，小的管夜，又造眾星， God made two great lights--the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 1:17 就把這些光擺列在天空，普照在地上， God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, 1:18 管理晝夜，分別明暗。神看著是好的。 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 1:19 有晚上，有早晨，是第四日。 And there was evening, and there was morning--the fourth day. 1:20 神說：水要多多滋生有生命的物；要有雀鳥飛在地面以上，天空之中。 And God said, <<Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky.>> 1:21 神就造出大魚和水中所滋生各樣有生命的動物，各從其類；又造出各樣飛鳥，各從其類。神看著是好的。 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 1:22 神就賜福給這一切，說：滋生繁多，充滿海中的水；雀鳥也要多生在地上。 God blessed them and said, <<Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.>> 1:23 有晚上，有早晨，是第五日。 And there was evening, and there was morning--the fifth day. 1:24 神說：地要生出活物來，各從其類；牲畜、昆蟲、野獸，各從其類。事就這樣成了。 And God said, <<Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind.>> And it was so. 1:25 於是神造出野獸，各從其類；牲畜，各從其類；地上一切昆蟲，各從其類。神看著是好的。 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 1:26 神說：我們要照著我們的形像、按著我們的樣式造人，使他們管理海裏的魚、空中的鳥、地上的牲畜，和全地，地上所爬的一切昆蟲。 Then God said, <<Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, 1:26 Hebrew; Syriac ((all the wild animals)) and over all the creatures that move along the ground.>> 1:27 神就照著自己的形像造人，乃是照著他的形像造男造女。 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 1:28 神就賜福給他們，又對他們說：要生養眾多，遍滿地面，治理這地，也要管理海裏的魚、空中的鳥，和地上各樣動的活物。 God blessed them and said to them, <<Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.>> 1:29 神說：看那，我將遍地上一切結種子的菜蔬和一切樹上所結有核的果子全賜給你們作食物。 Then God said, <<I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 1:30 至於地上的走獸和空中的飛鳥，並各樣爬在地上有生命的物，我將青草賜給他們作食物。事就這樣成了。 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground--everything that has the breath of life in it--I give every green plant for food.>> And it was so. 1:31 神看著一切所造的都甚好。有晚上，有早晨，是第六日。 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning--the sixth day.

三月三日 「那鬼喊叫，使孩子大大的抽了一陣瘋，就出來了。」馬可福音九章26節 惡者從來不肯放棄他的地盤，除非先有一陣激烈的戰爭。我們得到屬靈的產業，並不是在宴樂中得到的，乃是在戰場上得到的。這是屬靈的祕密。我們身體的各部亦是如此，要恢復屬靈的自由，必須要有寶血的代價。亞玻倫（啟九11）不是能用情誼、禮貌、要求，請出來的；他在裏面高視闊步；所以我們必須用屬靈的武力，寶血和眼淚驅逐他，他纔會出去。這一點我們必須記得，否則我們生活中會有許多誤解。我們重生，並不是重生在王宮中，乃是重生在曠野；那裏我們喫的奶，就是四周的風波和戰爭。「我們進入神的國，必須經歷許多艱難。」（徒十四22） ─喬懷德 我們祖先的信心， 雖歷經火與劍， 甚之牢獄的迫害， 但仍然不變， 我們聽到了這許多光榮的史蹟， 我們的心啊！ 何等的跳躍歡騰。 我們祖先的信心， 神聖的信心， 我們亦願矢忠矢誠， 至死不易！ 我們的祖先， 被關在黑牢之中， 可是他們心中自由的良知， 誰能索縛？ 倘若後代子孫也能為神殉道， 那是何等美妙何等幸福！

March 3 "And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him." (Mark 9:26.) ＥVIL never surrenders its hold without a sore fight. We never pass into any spiritual inheritance through the delightful exercises of a picnic, but always through the grim contentions of the battle field. It is so in the secret realm of the soul. Every faculty which wins its spiritual freedom does so at the price of blood. Apollyon is not put to flight by a courteous request; he straddles across the full breadth of the way, and our progress has to be registered in blood and tears. This we must remember or we shall add to all the other burdens of life the gall of misinterpretation. We are not "born again" into soft and protected nurseries, but in the open country where we suck strength from the very terror of the tempest. "We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God." ─Dr. J.H.Jowett. "Faith of our Fathers! living still, In spite of dungeon, fire and sword: O how our hearts beat high with joy Whene'er we hear that glorious word. Faith of our Fathers! Holy Faith! We will be true to Thee till death! "Our fathers, chained in prisons dark, Were still in heart and conscience free; How sweet would be their children's fate, If they, like them, could die for Thee!"

三月三日 神計劃中人的地位 「天是耶和華的天、地，祂卻給了世人。」詩篇廿五篇16節 神創造天作為祂自己的居所——完美的、榮耀的、至聖的。祂把地給了人作為人的居所——一切都很美好，只不過在起初的光景，需要人看守、栽培。神的工作已作成而有待人繼續並完成。認想土中所藏的煤礦以及水中之蒸氣，都有待人去發現、使用，正如今日遍地的鐵路網及水面上的船隻。神創造萬有就是如此被人所用，藉著人的智慧與勤勞去發現、使用。今天地上能有那麼多都市、居所、農田、果園等，都當歸功於人。創造之工是由神開始的，神創造、預備了，而是由人實行並達成神的目的。因此大自然就給我們看見這個奇妙的神人合作經營，為達到此目的的神，呼召人與祂同工，使神創造的工作能得以實行並達到神所預定之結果。 這個原則在神恩典的國度中也是一樣。在神偉大的救贖中，神已經把天上的生命及一切屬靈的福氣都向人顯明出來。但神卻把宣揚救恩福氣的工作託給人，使人能得著這些福氣。 世人為了尋求神所隱藏在地裡的財寶，而顯出何等的慇勤！離道神的兒女不該同樣地忠心尋求神所藏在天上的福氣，而將這些祝福帶到地上來嗎？乃是藉著神子民晝夜的呼求不能使祂的國度降臨，使祂的旨意行在地上如同行在天上。 禱告： 永遠可稱頌的主啊，您所賜予人的地位是何等奇妙，祂竟能將您所動的善工託付人繼續下去。我們求您開啟我們的心，使我們知道有藉著傳揚福音及代禱的工作，您的子民才能實行出您的旨意。主啊，開我們的眼睛——奉主耶穌之名。阿們。

三月三日 愛的真表現 「你餧養我的羊。」約翰福音廿一章17節 這是愛的成就。神的愛不是造的，愛是神的本性。在我們領受聖靈的時候，聖靈使我們與神聯絡，使祂的愛在我們裡面彰顯出來。當我們的靈藉著內在的聖靈而與神結合的時候，那並不是就此了事；是要我們與父合而為一，正如耶穌與父合而為一一樣。耶穌基督與父的合一性如何呢？因為祂與父合一，所以父差祂下來替我們作完全的犧牲，祂也照樣的說：「您怎樣差遣我到世上，我也照樣差他們到世上。」 彼得因主刺激問語的啟示而認知他愛耶穌；然後耶穌就叫他分愛於人。不必表證你怎樣的愛我，不必宣揚你所有的奇妙的啟示，但要「餧養我的羊。」耶穌有些怪異而調皮的羊，有些污濁的羊，有些粗野好鬥的羊，有些走入迷途的羊！神的愛沒有疲竭的可能，如果我們愛是由那個中心的源頭流出，我裡面的愛也沒有疲竭的可能。神的愛不因個性的分別而有差異。如果我愛主，我就不可讓我的性情來指導；只要餧養祂的羊就得了。這是責無旁貸的職務。當心不要以人性的同情來代替神的愛，因為那種愛終結是要褻瀆神之愛的。

三月三日 「凡管教的事，當時不覺得快樂，反覺得愁苦；後來卻為那經練過的人，結出平安的果子，就是義。」希伯來書十二章11節 神似乎喜歡用似非而是或似矛盾的方法來成就事情。例如甜頭之前必有酸苦，黎明之前總是黑夜，死亡卻是生命的大門；這彷彿是祂賜恩典的法則。 有許多人想得到權力，但是權力從何而來呢？有一天我經過一個發電場，看到電如何使電車的引擎轉動。我聽到無數輪子的嗡嗡之聲，於是就問我的朋友：「電力是如何產生的？」他說：「是靠那些輪子轉動時所產生的電磁摩擦而生，摩擦產生電流。」 同樣道理，當神要使我們更有能力時，祂也使我們受更多壓力。祂藉著摩擦使我們能有屬靈的力量。有些人不喜歡這個方法，有些人不明白。往往我們會逃避壓力，而不藉這樣的機會得到能力，或是突破痛苦的經歷。 煩惱憂傷的人，你雖在管教之中， 天父正在說：「休息、休息。」 讓我們學習在主前默默無聲。 使神能照著祂的旨意來塑造我們。
