We Should Pray | 我们应当祈祷

English Original

As my five-year-old son and I were headed to McDonald's one day, we passed a car accident. Usually, when we see something terrible like that, we say a prayer for those who might be hurt. So I pointed and said to my son, "We should pray."

From the back seat, I heard his earnest request: "Please, God, don't let those cars block the entrance to McDonald's."


中文翻译

一天,我和我五岁的儿子正前往麦当劳,途中经过一起车祸。通常,当我们看到这样糟糕的事情时,我们会为可能受伤的人祈祷。于是,我指着车祸现场对儿子说:“我们应当祈祷。”

从后座传来了他诚挚的请求:“求求您,上帝,别让那些车堵住麦当劳的入口。”
