Streams in the Desert荒漠甘泉58. 是否 禱告 等候

58. 是否 禱告 等候 Have you prayed and prayed and waited and waited?



是否 禱告 等候
依然 毫無 效果

不見果效 感覺 厭倦
你想放棄 或許 等錯了

若是 這麼 想
就會 離開 正路
沒能 遇見 神

忍耐 能挪去 一切飄搖無定
扶我 站起來（但八18）。

神的根基 是穩固的
祂的忍耐 是在裡面
在等候時 穩固我們

一切掛慮 卸給神
享受平安 和喜樂

管轄 腦中思想
繫念 神的話語

清楚 神的旨意
不用 嘆息
乃用 讚美 接受

我心裡 多憂多疑
神安慰 使我歡樂（詩九十四：19）

在人群中 我們會預期 受到試探
即使隱遁 也無可避免 受到試驗

每天有 不同遭遇
若選擇 求助於 人
我們就 得不到 神帶領

若棄絕 自我的私意
神時刻 一步步帶領
若願意 真正地委身
祂帶領 我一生一世

Have you prayed and prayed and waited and waited, and still there is no manifestation?
Are you tired of seeing nothing move?
Are you just at the point of giving it all up?
Perhaps you have not waited in the right way?
This would take you out of the right place the place where He can meet you.
Patience takes away all wobbling.
Make me stand upon my standing (Daniel 8:18, margin).
God's foundations are steady; and when His patience is within, we are steady while we wait.
It is possible to cast all our care upon Him daily and to enjoy deep peace in doing it.
It is possible to have the thoughts and imaginations of our hearts purified, in the deepest meaning of the word.
It is possible to see the will of God in everything, and to receive it, not with sighing, but with singing.
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
In the haunts of men we expect to be tempted, but even seclusion will not guard us from the same trial.
Every day brings its own perplexity.
If we choose our own way or consult with flesh and blood we cast away the LORD's guidance.
If we abstain from self-will, then He will direct every step of our road, every hour of the day, and every day of the year, and every year of our life.
