借与给

 

 

他无床铺——马槽干草店主借

他无存款——五饼二鱼孩童献

他无讲台——小舟旷野暂充数

他无车子——借人驴驹入圣城

他无屋子——临别晚餐借人房

他无遗产——临死托母于门徒

他无坟墓——财主石洞寄遗体

一无所有是基督

果真一无所有？

万物因祂而造——万有全属于祂

借——是因祂的舍弃

给——才是祂的一生

 

 

 

Borrow and Give

 

 

He did not have his own bed.

In a borrowed manger he laid his little head.

He did not have his own bank account.

The five loaves of bread and two fish were from a lad.

He did not have his own pulpit.

From the small boat, wilderness were His message heard.

He did not have his own car.

Jerusalem saw His entry on someone’s colt.

He did not have his own house.

In a friend’s house was where the last supper held.

He did not have any valuables left behind.

Before dying his beloved mother to his disciple gave.

He did not have his own tomb.

In a wealthy man’s tomb was His body laid to rest.

Alas! Jesus did not have anything on earth.

But was He truly broke?

Behold, All things were created by Him and belong to Him.

Borrowing-because he forsaking everything,

Giving-because this is his whole life.
