耶稣运用了群众们熟知的先知厄里亚(列上十七8-16)和厄里叟(列下五1-27)的故事,说明三重的事实:首先,祂将自己列于先知的行列之中;其次,耶稣揭露了群众们要求奇蹟,并非由于相信天主的能力在祂的身上出现,而只为满足自己的好奇心;最后,这些圣经例子也说明,外邦人比犹太人更先得到天主的救助。纳匝肋的群众了解,耶稣指责他们和祖先一样不尊敬先知,断定他们必将因此遭到和祖先们相同的命运,被拒于天国之外,同时眼睁睁地看见外邦人得到救恩(参阅:宗十三46;二八28)。

过自己最简单的生活。
不要别人说什么就做什么,只要倾听,但是做自己认为是好的事情。
不要追求名牌; 穿自己舒适自在的就好。
不要把钱浪费在不必要的东西上; 却要把钱花在真正需要钱的人身上。
毕竟,这是你自己的人生。那为什么要让别人来左右它?

Let me ask you something
Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prays for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?
