Study the Principle of Learning: Exercise Faith in Jesus Christ

Muab Siab rau Ntseeg Yexus Khetos

Jesus Christ can help me do all things as I exercise faith in Him.

Yexus Khetos pab tau kuv ua txhua yam thaum kuv muab siab rau ntseeg Nws.

Yexus Khetos cov thwj tim caij nkoj. Cua hlob heev, thiab cov nthwv dej siab heev. Thaum zoo li no, ces lawv pom Yexus mus ko taw saum nplaim dej los rau lawv. Nws ib tug thwj tim, Petus, thov Yexus seb puas cia nws mus ko taw saum nplaim dej thiab. Yexus caw Petus los ua ib yam uas ntshe tsis muaj neeg ua taus.

Ces phau Npaivnpaum qhia peb tias tom qab ntawd tau muaj li cas: “Petus txawm tawm hauv lub nkoj mus ko taw saum nplaim dej mus cuag Yexus.

“Tiam sis thaum Petus pom cua ntsawj hlob hlob nws ntshai kawg li, ces nws txawm tog zog rau hauv dej, nws hu nrov nrov hais tias, Tus Tswv, thov koj pab kuv.

“Tam sim ntawd Yexus txawm cev loo tes mus tuav nkaus Petus thiab hais tias, Ua li cas koj kev ntseeg yuav tsawg ua luaj li! Ua li cas koj tsis cia siab?” (Mathais 14:29–31).

Thaum xub thawj, Petus muaj kev ntseeg, thiab nws txawj mus ko taw saum nplaim dej. Tiam sis thaum nws nres saib Yexus thiab pom cua daj cua dub, nws pib tog hauv cov dej. Ib yam li Petus, yog koj tsom ntsoov rau tej yam koj ntshai, tej zaum koj yuav xav tso tseg. Tiam sis, koj muaj peev xwm tsom ntsoov rau Yexus. Kev kawm ib yam lus tshiab ntshe ua rau koj xav tias koj ua tsis taus hlo li. Cia li tso siab rau Yexus Khetos hais tias Nws pab tau koj ua tej yam uas koj xav tias koj ua tsis taus.
