12月15日 竭誠為主

1215
蒙神悅納

你當努力,在神面前得蒙喜悅,作無愧的工人,接著正意分解真理的道。(提後二15

要是你不能在任何題目上表達自己,就當好好努力,直至你能表達出來,否則,有些人會因此一生貧瘠。試把神某些真理對自己再三說出來,力求改進,神會藉你的話叫別人得益。要進入神的壓酒池,竭力用各種方式把道理表達,時候到了,那些話就成為別人得力的美酒。若你懶洋洋地說:我自己不必努力去表達,我可以借用別人的話。這樣,不但自己無用,對別人也無益。試把神的真理說出來,這樣你就給神機會,把資訊帶給人。

經常保持反謅的習慣,刺激腦袋再三思想那些理所當然的東西。經過苦練,崗位才真正成為我們的。一個作者叫你收益最大,不是因他把你從不知曉的東西告訴你,而是他把你不能表達的東西表達出來。

祈禱主啊,我願稱頌和讚美你,然而,當我身體軟弱,我感到讚美你是何其困難,但為何必然是這樣呢?這意味著惟有當我感到愉快,我才讚美你。但願我的心能持續不斷地讚美你!

15 Approved Unto God

“Study
to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

If you
cannot express yourself on any subject, struggle until you can. If you do not,
someone will be the poorer all the days of his life. Struggle to re-express
some truth of God to yourself, and God will use that expression to someone
else. Go through the winepress of God where the grapes are crushed. You must
struggle to get expression experimentally, then there will come a time when
that expression will become the very wine of strengthening to someone else; but
if you say lazily – “I am not going to struggle to express this thing for
myself, I will borrow what I say,” the expression will not only be of no use to
you, but of no use to anyone. Try to state to yourself what you feel implicitly
to be God’s truth, and you give God a chance to pass it on to someone else
through you.

Always make
a practice of provoking your own mind to think out what it accepts easily. Our
position is not ours until we make it ours by suffering. The author who
benefits you most is not the one who tells you something you did not know
before, but the one who gives expression to the truth that has been dumbly
struggling in you for utterance.
