对今日诗句的想法
如果说有什么事情是我们不愿意去做的,那就是等候。也许这就是神如此看重我们学习等候的原因!遭遇逆境依然忠心,碰到困难依然坚定,在这个过程中某些东西就被炼净了。因此神让我们等候一些时日,察看我们是否在真正寻求他,抑或只是在寻求新奇的或舒适的日子。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
If there is anything we don't like to do, it's wait. Maybe that is why God is so interested in us learning to do it! There is something purifying about remaining strong in tough times and remaining faithful when ill winds blow. So God gives us times of waiting to see if our search is really for him or merely for something new or easy.
我的祷告
慈爱的天父啊,我深知你那么多次等候我——等候我表明信心,悔改我的罪,在圣洁上成长,在祷告中来到你面前,行为更加成熟,关爱那些无力偿还的人……在我等候你向我显明你的指引,等候你满足我的需求,等候你在我孤独时彰显你的同在时,求你帮助我。我全心寻求你。奉主耶稣之名求,阿们!
My Prayer...
Loving Father, I know you have waited for me so many times — for me to show my faith, repent of my sins, grow in holiness, come to you in prayer, act more mature, give to those who cannot return my care... Help me as I wait for you to show me the way with my decisions, to act to relieve my need, and to reveal your presence in my loneliness. I really do seek you with all my heart. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
