6月11日 竭诚为主

611 到主那里去

到我这里来。(太十一28

我想到那里去吗?现在就可以去了。人生真正重大的问题本来是极少的,而这些问题都在“到我这里来”这句话里得了答案。不是做这个,不做那个;而是“到我这里来”。只要来到耶稣跟前,生活就会按照我真正的渴望度过;我会真的脱离罪,真正找到主所赐的乐歌。

你曾否到耶稣这里来?当心你心中的顽梗,叫你宁愿做许多别的事,也不甘愿像个天真的孩子般“到我这里来”。你若真想断绝罪,就必须来就耶稣。耶稣基督拿自己做试金石。请留意他如何用“来”这个字。在人最意想不到的时刻,主微声说“到我这里来”,你立即就被他吸引过去。

与基督的接触,会改变人的一切。你要绝圣去智,成为愚拙,来亲就耶稣,照他所说的去行。“来”的态度就是肯完全放弃一切,立志将所有的交付他。

“我就使你们得安息”,就是说“我会扶持你”。不是“我会把你送上床,执著你的手,哼著眠歌,把你送入梦乡”。而是“我要叫你从床上起来,从颓废疲惫中出来,从半生不死得状况下出来;我要以生命的灵充满你,你便有完全的生命。”我们有时会可怜兮兮地说:“为神的旨意而受苦!”这种态度,哪能彰显儿子无上的生命力与大能呢?

祈祷◆“如甘霖滋润田地”;“如露水降在以色列”--噢,主啊,今天早上这些话来到我的脑海中,是带着甜蜜的迫切感。愿你今天好像甘霖、露水般临到我们当中,滋润、塑造和赐福我们。我怀着极大和欢欣的期望来到你的面前。


June 11 Getting There

Come unto Me.” Matthew 11:28

Do I want to get there? I can now. The questions that matter in life are
remarkably few, and they are all answered by the words – “Come unto Me.” Not –
Do this, or don’t do that; but – “Come unto Me.” If I will come to Jesus my
actual life will be brought into accordance with my real desires; I will
actually cease from sin, and actually find the song of the Lord begin.

Have you ever come to Jesus? Watch the stubbornness of your heart, you
will do anything rather than the one simple childlike thing – “Come unto Me.”
If you want the actual experience of ceasing from sin, you must come to Jesus.

Jesus Christ makes Himself the touchstone. Watch how He used the word
“Come.” At the most unexpected moments there is the whisper of the Lord – “Come
unto Me,” and you are drawn immediately. Personal contact with Jesus alters
everything. Be stupid enough to come and commit yourself to what He says. The
attitude of coming is that the will resolutely lets go of everything and
deliberately commits all to Him.

. . . and I will give you rest,” i.e., I will stay you. Not – I will put
you to bed and hold your hand and sing you to sleep; but – I will get you out
of bed, out of the languor and exhaustion, out of the state of being half dead
while you are alive; I will imbue you with the spirit of life, and you will be
stayed by the perfection of vital activity. We get pathetic and talk about
“suffering the will of the Lord!” Where is the majestic vitality and might of
the Son of God about that?
