    最近买了一本Tim Keller写的书,名字为Prayer。
    感受很深。分享一些关于对关系的理解:爱是一种关系,一个人不能爱,一定要有对象,所以神不是单一的一个,而是以圣父、圣子,圣灵三位一体存在的关系。

    当我读到下面的这段话时感触很深:

    The  Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are adoring one another, giving glorifying love to one another, and delighting in one another. We know of no joy higher than being loved and loving in return, but a triune God would know that love and joy in unimaginable, infinite dimensions. God is, therefore, infinitely, profoundly happy, filled with joy---not some abstract tranquility but the fierce happiness of dynamic loving relationships. Knowing this God is not to get beyond emotions or thoughts, but to be filled with glorious love and joy.

    If God did not need to create other beings in order to know love and happiness, then why did he do so?

    The only reason God would have had for creating us was not to get the cosmic love and joy of relationship(because he already had that) but to Share it. This is consistent with the nature of God, who is other-oriented in his core, who seeks glory only to give it to others---to communicate happiness and delight in his own divine perfections and beauty to others.

    Our ability to love other persons is just an image of the internal Trinitarian love that we were created to reflect.

    We can see why a triune God would call us to converse with him, to know and relate to him. It is because he wants to share the joy he has. Prayer is our way of entering into the happiness of God himself.
