Magic Eye

입체그림
[God] is a rewarder of those who diligently
seek Him. —Hebrews 11:6
하나님께 나아가는 자는 그가 자기를 찾는
자들에게 상 주시는 이심을 믿어야
할지니라 —히브리서 11:6

Hymn 85

찬송가 85

One of my nephews brought a book of Magic Eye images to a family gathering. Magic Eye images look like ordinary two-dimensional patterns, but when viewed in a certain way, the flat surface appears three-dimensional. 조카들 중 하나가 가족들이 모인 자리에 입체그림들을 모은 책을 가지고 왔습니다. 입체그림들은 얼른 보기에는 보통그림처럼 보이지만, 보는 방식에 따라 평면이 입체로 보입니다.
We took turns trying to train our eyes to make the three-dimensional image pop out. one family member had trouble seeing the extra dimension. Several times I noticed he had the book open, looking at it from all different distances and directions. But even though he couldn’t see the hidden image, he believed it was there because others had seen it. 우리는 돌아가면서 보통그림이 입체그림으로 튀어 나와 보이도록 각자의 눈을 훈련했습니다. 그런데 가족들 가운데 한 사람에게는 그 일이 쉽지 않았습니다. 내가 알기에도 여러 번 그는 책을 펼쳐들고 눈 거리도 맞추어보고, 보는 방향도 바꾸어가며 시도해 보았습니다. 하지만 끝내 입체그림을 보지 못했음에도 불구하고 그는 다른 이들이 보았기 때문에 거기에 입체그림이 있다고 믿었습니다.
His persistence made me think about the importance of having the same tenacity in matters of faith. The danger for those who doubt is that they stop looking for God because they believe He can’t be found. Moses warned the Israelites that future generations would wander from God. He promised, however, that those who seek God with all their heart and soul will find Him (Deut. 4:29). The book of Hebrews confirms that God rewards those who diligently seek Him (11:6). 나는 그가 쉽게 포기하지 않고 계속 노력하는 모습을 보면서 믿음에 있어서도 그와 같은 집요함을 소유하는 것이 중요하다는 사실을 생각하게 되었습니다. 의심을 품고 신앙생활을 하는 사람들은 하나님을 만나는 일이 불가능하다고 생각하기 때문에 하나님을 추구하는 일을 중단하기 쉽습니다. 모세는 이스라엘 사람들에게 그들의 후손들이 하나님을 떠나 방황하리라고 경고하였습니다. 그러나 그는 만일 마음을 다하고 성품을 다하여 하나님을 구하면 그를 분명히 만날 수 있다고 말하였습니다(신명기 4:29). 하나님은 끊임없이 자기를 찾는 자들에게 상 주시는 분이시라는 것을 히브리서가 확인해주고 있습니다(11:6).
If you struggle to believe, remember: Just because you don’t see God doesn’t mean He doesn’t exist. He promises to be found by those who seek Him. 믿어지지 않아서 힘들어하는 사람들은 다음 구절을 명심하시기 바랍니다. 눈에 하나님이 안 보인다고 해서 하나님이 안 계신 것은 아닙니다. 하나님은 당신을 찾는 자들에게 나타내 주시겠다고 약속하셨습니다.

I searched with all my heart to know 
If God was really there; 
He graciously revealed Himself, 
His mercy, love, and care. —Cetas

하나님이 정말 계신지를 알기 위해 
내 온 마음을 다해 찾으니 
감사하게도 그는 자신과, 자비와 사랑 
그리고 돌보아 주심을 나에게 보여 주셨네

Because God is great, He will be sought;
because God is good, He will be found.
하나님은 위대하시기에 그를 찾게 되며,
그는 선하시기에 응답해 주신다.

 

Hebrews 11:1-10

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

 

Hebrews 11

The Triumphs of Faith
 1 Now faith is the [a](A)assurance of things [b](B)hoped for, the [c]conviction of (C)things not seen. 2For by it the (D)men of old [d](E)gained approval.

 3 By faith we understand that the [e](F)worlds were prepared (G)by the word of God, so that what is seen (H)was not made out of things which are visible. 4 By faith (I)Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain, through which he (J)obtained the testimony that he was righteous, God testifying [f]about his (K)gifts, and through [g]faith, though (L)he is dead, he still speaks. 5 By faith(M)Enoch was taken up so that he would not (N)see death; AND HE WAS NOT FOUND BECAUSE GOD TOOK HIM UP; for he obtained the witness that before his being taken up he was pleasing to God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who (O)comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. 7 By faith (P)Noah, being (Q)warnedby God about (R)things not yet seen, [h](S)in reverence (T)prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of (U)the righteousness which is according to faith.

 8 By faith (V)Abraham, when he was called, obeyed [i]by going out to a place which he was to(W)receive for an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was going. 9 By faith he lived as an alien in (X)the land of promise, as in a foreign land, (Y)dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, (Z)fellow heirs of the same promise; 10 for he was looking for (AA)the city which has(AB)foundations, (AC)whose architect and builder is God.
