平安！欢迎收听“同唱一首歌”，我是你的朋友香畦。今天节目中要跟您分享的歌曲是《我们的神This Is Our God》，这首歌出自澳大利亚 Hillsong的“华语精选”专辑。Hillsong的歌曲在世界各地多次获奖，深受各地年轻基督徒的欢迎。

我们今天特别邀请还不认识神的朋友来听听这首歌，透过这首歌曲，来了解基督徒所相信的，是怎么样的一位神。

       <诗歌>

歌曲中唱到的那位神，是满有恩典、怜悯、为拯救罪人愿意牺牲自己的神。不过，基督徒也并不是天生就有这样的认知。例如我们教会中的一个朋友Emily，她从小就不这么认为。

Emily从小到大是被妈妈逼着去教堂的。妈妈说信耶稣得自由，可是小小的Emily完全不能理解。她零散地看了几段经文，看到圣经里说这个不能做那个不能做，有很多行为上的要求，这让她觉得一点自由都没有，太苛刻。在她眼里，神又严厉又可怕，她很害怕被神惩罚！所以那时她根本就不喜欢去教会。

Hello friends. In the last episode, David surrendered his life to God in response to His call. Then he prayed for God’s provision on food, travelling expenses and clothing. Immediately after he responded to His call, David experienced the overwhelming joy and peace of God flooded his heart.

Next, David was so determined with his decision - he sold all his books on management, marketing and sales to a used-book store. He was determined that there would be no turning back to his career. The move signified David’s will to follow Jesus.
