Study the Principle of Learning: Press Forward

Mus Lawm Tom Hauv Ntej

With God’s help, I can press forward even when I face obstacles.

Nrog Vajtswv txoj kev pab, kuv thiaj li muaj cuab kav mus lawm tom hauv ntej thaum kuv raug tej kev cov nyom.

Nyob hauv cov vaj lug kub peb nyeem txog ib tug poj niam hu ua Luv uas muaj teeb meem ntau. Nws tus txiv tuag lawm, thiab nws tsis tau muaj me nyuam. Nws niam tais, Na-aumis, tau npaj rov qab mus rau nws lub teb chaws thiab qhia Luv kom nws nyob xwb, tiam sis Luv hais tias,

“Koj mus qhov twg, kuv yeej yuav nrog koj mus qhov ntawd; koj nyob qhov twg, kuv yuav nrog koj nyob qhov ntawd. Koj haiv neeg yuav yog kuv haiv neeg thiab koj tus Vajtswv yuav yog kuv tus Vajtswv. … Na-aumis pom hais tias, Luv muaj pluaj siab nrog nws mus tiag” (Luv 1:16, 18).

Luv rau siab ntseeg. Luv xaiv kom nrog Na-aumis nyob hauv pej kum teb chaws, nyob deb ntawm nws tsev neeg thiab kab lig kev cai. Nws xaiv kom rau siab ntseeg ua raws li nws txoj kev teev ntuj tshiab. Yeej nyuaj rau Luv thiab Na-aumis. Nkawd pluag heev thiab nyuaj rau nkawd tau noj tau haus. Luv tseem tso siab rau Vajtswv, thiab nws tu Na-aumis. Vajtswv pom nws khwv heev thiab tau foom koob hmoov rau nws. Tom qab ntawd, Luv rov qab yuav txiv, muaj me nyuam, thiab muaj txaus noj rau nws tsev neeg. Koj ntseeg tau Vajtswv ib yam li Luv. Koj muaj peev xwm sib zog mus lawm tom hauv ntej nrog kev ntseeg txawm yog koj raug tej yam nyuaj los.
