主啊，感谢你，我们越来越在你的话里得着激励，我们的心也越来越喜乐欢腾，从前我们作罪人的地位何等卑微，我们一直认罪，约束自己不犯罪，但我们已经在你里面，在你的恩典里，看见这个，让我们有何等的释放。主啊，因为你悦纳我，我愿意珍赏并重看自己。
以弗所书一 6下
这恩典是祂在那蒙爱者里面所恩赐我们的；
To the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He graced us in the Beloved;
亮光
在这里保罗不是说『在基督里』或『在祂里面』；他是说『在那蒙爱者里面』。那蒙爱者就是神的爱子，神所喜悦的（太三17，十七5）。我们已经看见，神恩赐我们，乃是使我们成为祂喜悦的对象。这全然是神所喜欢的。在基督里，神用各样的福分祝福了我们。在那蒙爱者里面，我们已蒙神恩赐，成为神所恩宠并喜欢的对象。我们既是这样的对象，就在神的恩典里，在祂所喜悦的爱子里享受神，也给神享受。在祂的爱子里，我们也成了祂所喜悦的。
神喜悦那蒙爱者，也喜悦我们。『在那蒙爱者里面』这句话，说出父神在我们身上有完全的喜悦、满足和享受，因为我们已成为祂恩典和喜悦的对象。就这一面的意义说，我们都该珍赏自己并重看自己，因为我们是神喜悦的对象。你应该说，『因为神喜悦我，所以我珍赏自己。我甚至重看自己，因为我已被摆在恩典的地位上，成为神恩典的对象。』我们对自己该有这样的眼光，不是照着我们天然的光景，乃是照着我们已蒙拣选、预定、重生并蒙恩赐的事实。神喜悦我们，不是因我们在自己里面，乃是因我们在祂的爱子里面。
Here Paul does not say “in Christ” or “in Him”; he says “in the Beloved.” The Beloved is God’s beloved Son in whom He delights (Matt. 3:17; 17:5). We have seen that for God to grace us is to make us an object in whom He delights. This is altogether a pleasure to God. In Christ we have been blessed by God with every blessing. In the Beloved we were graced, made the object of God’s favor and pleasure. As such an object we enjoy God, and God enjoys us in His grace in His Beloved, who is His delight. In His Beloved we also become His delight.
God delights in the Beloved, and He delights also in us. The phrase “in the Beloved” conveys the full delight, satisfaction, and enjoyment God the Father has in us because we have been made the object of His grace and delight. In this sense we should all appreciate ourselves and ever esteem ourselves highly because we are the object of God’s delight. You should say, “Because God delights in me, I appreciate myself. I even esteem myself highly because I have been positioned in grace and made the object of God’s grace.” We should have such a view about ourselves, not according to our natural state, but according to the fact that we have been chosen, predestinated, regenerated, and graced. God delights in us, not in ourselves, but in His Beloved.
