[QT 묵상] 창세기 2장 18-25절 (Genesis)

  아담과 이브 (Adam and Eve)

18 그리고 여호와 하나님은 “사람이 혼자 사는 것이 좋지 못하니 내가 그를 도울 적합한 짝을 만들어 주겠다” 하고 말씀하셨다.
19 여호와 하나님이 흙으로 온갖 들짐승과 새를 만드시고, 아담이 어떻게 이름을 짓나 보시려고 그것들을 그에게 이끌고 가시니 아담이 각 생물들을 부르는 것이 바로 그 생물들의 이름이 되었다.
20 이와 같이 아담이 모든 가축과 공중의 새와 들짐승의 이름을 지어 주었지만 그를 도울 적합한 짝이 없었다.
21 그래서 여호와 하나님은 아담을 깊이 잠들게 하시고 그가 자고 있는 동안 그의 갈빗대 하나를 뽑아내고 그 자리를 대신 살로 채우셨다.
22 여호와 하나님이 아담에게서 뽑아낸 그 갈빗대로 여자를 만드시고 그녀를 아담에게 데려오시자
23 아담이 이렇게 외쳤다. “이는 내 뼈 중의 뼈요 살 중의 살이구나! 남자에게서 나왔으니 이를 여자라고 부르리라.”
24 그러므로 남자가 부모를 떠나 자기 아내와 합하여 두 사람이 한몸이 될 것이다.
25 아담과 그의 아내가 다 같이 벌거벗었으나 그들은 부끄러워하지 않았다.

18 And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.” 

19 Out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.

20 So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.
21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

22 Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.
23 And Adam said:
“This is now bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called Woman,
Because she was taken out of Man.”
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

  나의 묵상 (Quiet Time)

우리 부부가 결혼하고 하나된 것은 하나님의 부르심이 있다는 것을 기억하도록 하겠습니다. 
각각 자신들의 기쁨이 아닌 하나님께서 주신 소명과 사명을 다하는 가정을 만들어 갈 수 있도록 하겠습니다.
결혼한지 얼마 되지는 않았지만 저의 부족함과 저만의 기쁨을 찾으려 할때가 많습니다. 
마음은 그렇지 않지만 여러 상황으로 인해 자신이 떠밀려 빠지면서 
거기서 빠져 나오지 않으려고 하는 것 같습니다. 
하나님께서 부르신 소명 가운데서 회복될 수 있게 하나님과의 깊은 교제를 실천할 수 있도록 하겠습니다. 
하나님 나라로 갈 수 있는 기초가 되는 가정으로 서서 
참된 기쁨과 은혜를 누리는 그리스도인의 공동체가 되길 소망합니다.
