经文: 耶和华喜爱祂的百姓。（诗篇一四九：4）
耶稣的爱足以满足祂百姓一切的需要。对他们有好处的事，没有一件对祂是不重要的。祂以你为永恒的，但是祂也明白你是不免一死的。“就是你们的头发也都被数过了。”（太十：30）“义人的脚步被耶和华立定，他的道路耶和华也喜爱。”（诗三十七：23）祂爱的外袍遮盖我们所有的顾虑。信徒啊，耶稣的心关怀你日常的事务，你可以安心。祂温柔的爱极其丰盛，你尽可以将所有的事交托给祂。“父亲怎样怜恤他的儿女，耶和华也怎样怜恤敬畏他的人。”（诗一○三：13）所有圣徒的好处皆包含在上帝爱子的宽广胸怀中。祂的心怀容纳祂所有的百姓各种不同的、数不清的顾虑。你以为自己能量度基督的爱吗？请思想祂的爱所带给你的──称义、接纳、成圣和永生。祂的慈爱之丰盛是不可思议的。哦，基督的爱实在无可匹配！我岂能只以自己一半的心来接受如此浩大的爱？我们岂能以冷淡回报？我们岂能淡漠地回应，并耽延称颂耶稣奇妙的仁慈大爱和温柔关怀？调整你的心，欢唱感恩之歌！安心睡觉吧，因为你不是被弃的流浪者，而是蒙爱的孩子！主看顾你、关怀你、供应你、并且保守你。

Scripture: “The Lord taketh pleasure in his people.”(Psalm 149:4)
How comprehensive is the love of Jesus! There is no part of his people’s interests which he does not consider, and there is nothing which concerns their welfare which is not important to him. Not merely does he think of you, believer, as an immortal being, but as a mortal being too. Do not deny it or doubt it: “The very hairs of your head are all numbered.” “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.” It were a sad thing for us if this mantle of love did not cover all our concerns, for what mischief might be wrought to us in that part of our business which did not come under our gracious Lord’s inspection! Believer, rest assured that the heart of Jesus cares about your meaner affairs. The breadth of his tender love is such that you may resort to him in all matters; for in all your afflictions he is afflicted, and like as a father pitieth his children, so doth he pity you. The meanest interests of all his saints are all borne upon the broad bosom of the Son of God. Oh, what a heart is his, that doth not merely comprehend the persons of his people, but comprehends also the diverse and innumerable concerns of all those persons! Dost thou think, O Christian, that thou canst measure the love of Christ? Think of what his love has brought thee－justification, adoption, sanctification, eternal life! The riches of his goodness are unsearchable; thou shalt never be able to tell them out or even conceive them. Oh, the breadth of the love of Christ! Shall such a love as this have half our hearts? Shall it have a cold love in return? Shall Jesus’ marvellous lovingkindness and tender care meet with but faint response and tardy acknowledgment? O my soul, tune thy harp to a glad song of thanksgiving! Go to thy rest rejoicing, for thou art no desolate wanderer, but a beloved child, watched over, cared for, supplied, and defended by thy Lord.
