Everyone we meet bears the image of God.

人人都有上帝的形象，都是祂所爱的。

She has done a beautiful thing to me. Mark 14:6

她在我身上做的是一件美事。-马可福音14章6节

Picture two teenage girls. The first girl is strong and healthy. The other girl has never known the freedom of getting around on her own. From her wheelchair she faces not only the emotional challenges common to life, but also a stream of physical pains and struggles.

想像有两位少女，其中一位活泼健康，另一位却从未尝过自由活动的滋味。这个女孩困坐在轮椅上，不仅要面对一般人都会碰到的生活压力，还必须对抗一连串身体的病痛和折磨。

But both girls are smiling cheerfully as they enjoy each other’s company. Two beautiful teenagers—each seeing in the other the treasure of friendship.

但这两位女孩都开心地笑着，因她们相互陪伴，将对方的友谊视为珍宝。

Jesus devoted much of His time and attention to people like the girl in the wheelchair. People with lifelong disabilities or physical deformities as well as those who were looked down on by others for various reasons. In fact, Jesus let one of “those people” anoint Him with oil, to the disdain of the religious leaders (Luke 7:39). On another occasion, when a woman demonstrated her love with a similar act, Jesus told her critics, “Leave her alone . . . . She has done a beautiful thing to me” (Mark 14:6).

耶稣曾付出许多时间关怀的人，有许多是像那位坐轮椅的女孩。当中有些人终生残疾，也有些因其他原因受到鄙视。事实上，耶稣还接受所谓“不洁净”的人用油膏祂，让宗教领袖感到不屑（路加福音7章39节） 。此外，有一个女人也用香膏来膏耶稣，以表达她对耶稣的爱，耶稣对那些批评她的人说：“由她吧……她在我身上做的是一件美事。”（马可福音14章6节）

God values everyone equally; there are no distinctions in His eyes. In reality, we are all in desperate need of Christ’s love and forgiveness. His love compelled Him to die on the cross for us.

上帝看重每一个人，在祂眼中每一个都是平等的。事实上，我们每个人都极度需要基督的爱与赦罪。耶稣基督因着爱我们，甘愿为我们死在十字架上。

May we see each person as Jesus did: made in God’s image and worthy of His love. Let’s treat everyone we meet with Christlike equality and learn to see beauty as He does.

但愿我们能以耶稣的眼光看待每一个人，因每个人都按上帝的形象受造，都蒙上帝所爱。让我们就像基督一样，平等地对待周遭每一个人，并能学习去看祂所看见的美善。

Dear Lord, help me to see people as You see them—

not important because of what they can do or how they look,

 but because they are made in God’s image and 

You loved them enough to die for them.

亲爱的主，求祢帮助我，以祢的眼光看待每一个人，
不是因为他们的能力或外貌，而是因他们按祢的形象受造。

因祢爱世人至深，甚至为世人舍命。
