阿拉法和俄梅戛
我们的世界通常只限于我们眼前看得到的范围，不过，在启示录这卷书中，神希望我们能够容纳范围更广的世界；我们要学习去观看一个更广阔的世界，因为神的话语启示祂是“阿拉法、俄梅戛，是昔在、今在、以后永在的全能者。”站在全能的主面前，令人感到何等卑微；来到神面前时，我们学习认识真我，神是全能者，相比之下，我们是如此渺小。无论我们有甚么优点或软弱，我们仍然必须学习在神面前看清楚自己。
然而，当我们张开眼睛看到神是全能的神时，我们的世界便能成为一个广阔的地域了。我们看到的不单是眼前瞥见这一刻，我们学习怀着耶稣再来更新万有的渴望过生活，每一刻都在期望神在基督里再来的那一天，那时祂要把祂的救恩完完全全地带给祂创造的每一部份。
今天，我们蒙邀请在主全能神的面前过生活，因着祂再来的应许，我们每天也常常这样祷告说：“我们在天上的父，愿人都尊你的名为圣。愿你的国降临。愿你的旨意行在他上，如同行在天上”（马太福音 6:9-10）。
“主啊，求你开我心灵的眼晴，”好叫我能在你奇妙的同在带来的喜乐中生活。阿们。
启示录 1:7-8
7看哪，他驾云降临，众目要看见他，连刺他的人也要看见他，地上的万族都要因他哀哭。这话是真实的，阿们。
8主神说：“我是阿拉法，我是俄梅戛，是昔在、今在、以后永在的全能者。”
The Alpha And The Omega
“Look, he is coming with the clouds,” and “every eye will see him... “ - Revelation 1:7
In the book of Revelation, God wants us to embrace a world bigger than the one that ends at the tip of our nose. We learn to see a bigger world because God speaks and reveals that he is “the Alpha and the Omega... who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” It is a humbling experience to stand in the presence of the Lord Almighty. Before this God, we learn to know our true selves. God is the Almighty, and by comparison we are small. Regardless of our strengths or weaknesses, we must learn to see ourselves standing before the Lord.
Yet when our eyes are opened to God’s being God Almighty, our world becomes a big place. We gain more than a glimpse of the present moment. We learn to live in the expectation of Jesus’ coming again to make all things new. Every moment is filled with longing for the day when God, in Christ, will bring the fullness of his salvation to every part of his creation.
Today we are invited to live in the presence of the Lord God Almighty. His promise to come again fills our day with the prayer “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:9-10).
“Open the eyes of my heart, Lord,” that I may live in the joy of your awesome presence. Amen.
