3-28
祂是一个给予、给予、再给予的上帝。当祂在十字架上为你而死时，祂毫不保留；祂像奠祭一样奉献了自己的生命。因为慷慨是祂本性的一部分。祂寻找那些能够全心全意接受祂的人。为了增进与祂的亲密关系，你最需要的两个特质是接受和专注。接受是打开你内心深处，让祂的丰富之源充满你。专注是将你的目光投向祂，在你的生活中寻找祂。就像先知以赛亚所写的，你可以专注于祂。通过这样的专注，你会得到一个荣耀的礼物：祂完美的平安。
He is a God who gives and gives and gives. When he died for you on the cross, he held back nothing; he poured out his life like a drink offering. Because giving is inherent in his nature. He search for people who are able to receive in full measure. To increase your intimacy with him, the two traits you need the most are receptivity and attentiveness. Receptivity is opening up your innermost being to be filled with his abundant riches. Attentiveness is directing your gaze to him, searching for him in all you moments. It is possible to stay your mind on him, as the prophet Isaiah wrote. Through such attentiveness you receive a glorious gift: his perfect peace.
