Tauren Wells: 我认为教会应该致力于下一代的培养,通过投入时间、资源和平台来支持他们。真正的喜乐不是来自外在的环境,而是来自耶稣。上帝并没有对你隐瞒喜乐,他邀请你在你所在的地方找到它。幸福不是在某件事的另一边等着我们,它正在我们内心发生。我们必须通过耶稣的门才能得到它。我发现,当我们把目光从每个人都必须关注我身上移开,而把目光放在别人身上时,我在生活的其他领域会感到非常满足。当我们接受上帝的爱时,他会将他的喜乐倾注到我们的心中,并且它是由他的灵在我们里面产生的。因此,我们应该更多地关注与上帝的关系,而不是仅仅追求外在的幸福。 Tauren Wells: 我认为理解上帝的话语非常重要,因为你如何看待圣经决定了你如何看待上帝,而你如何看待上帝决定了你如何解释你生活中的事件。我个人认为,上帝希望我们快乐,因为耶稣所说的第一句话就是“蒙福的”,这意味着“快乐”。我们不应该把幸福推到未来,而应该享受当下的生活。我们应该更多地关注与上帝的关系,而不是仅仅追求外在的幸福。我们应该学会喜乐地与主同在,因为上帝就在我们身边,就在简单之中。我们应该允许上帝的同在、上帝的方式、上帝的旨意来封印我们的心,它会放大我们从其他每个类别中获得的喜乐和幸福。
