顺服吧

Submission

“又当存敬畏基督的心，彼此顺服。” —弗 5:21

"Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ." —Ephesians 5:21

太太对我说：“你为什么不扔掉那些旧裤子呢？它们已是污渍斑斑，裤脚也磨损了，你穿起来显得很邋遢。”她的建议令我发火，因为它按了我的“悖逆键”（“悖逆键” 是我们家中常用的名词），我毫不让步固执地说：“哦，但这是我最舒服的裤子，哪管它看来怎么样？”

"Why don't you throw away those old pants?" my wife said. "They're stained and frayed around the cuffs. They make you look sloppy." I bristled at her suggestion. It pushed my "contrary button," as we say in our family. I dug in my heels and got stubborn: "Yeah, but they're my most comfortable pants. Who cares how they look?"

我发觉很多人都有一个“悖逆键。”如果我们不喜欢某人的看法，虽然他们说得合情合理，而且是礼貌并温和地表达他们的建议，我们心里仍然会抗拒。顺服，则要求我们有颗谦卑的心，然而我们往往宁愿选择固执而不肯顺服。诗篇32:9劝喻我们，“你不可像那无知的骡马，必用嚼环辔头勒住它。”

I've found that a lot of people have a "contrary button." If we don't like someone's idea, even if their suggestion is reasonably, politely, and mildly expressed, rebelliousness stirs in our heart. Submission calls for humility, but we will often choose to be stubborn rather than submit. Psalm 32:9 counsels us, "Do not be like the horse or the mule, which have no understanding but must be controlled by bit and bridle."

保罗为什么说“又当存敬畏基督的心，彼此顺服”呢？当然是因为虽本为神，基督“反倒虚己，取了奴仆的形像，成为人的样式”（腓立比书2:7）。祂服事门徒，为他们洗脚（约翰福音13），衪更成为死囚要被处决—为了我们。

Why does Paul say, "Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ"? Surely it is because Christ, though being fully God, "made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness" (Philippians 2:7). He served his disciples by washing their feet (John 13). And he died the death of a criminal—for us.
