經文：「那靠著良人從曠野上來的，是誰呢？」（歌8:5） 某回我在一場祈禱會中，學到了一門有益的功課。有位弟兄起來禱告，求神賜下各種祝福給在場的我們，內容不外乎我們平時的禱告；然後他也為已經得著的獻上感謝，就像我們平時的感謝詞；但就在他結束禱告的時候，他加上一句奇妙的請求，說： 「主呀，撐住我們！是的，主呀，在我們所倚靠的每一側撐住我們！」 親愛的讀者，你有沒有可以倚靠的主呢？這位弟兄用了一個新的方法， 把我們的倚靠描述得很清楚；他對於我們所倚靠的主，有了新的看見，他也把這個看見，分享給了我們。 我們的主是時時在祂百姓身邊的主，祂隨時都張開仁慈的雙臂來撐住祂軟弱的孩子。--選 新譯｜荒漠甘泉讀書會

Scripture: "Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved?" (S. of Sol. 8:5). Some one gained a good lesson from a Southern prayer meeting. A brother asked the Lord for various blessings--as you and I do, and thanked the Lord for many already received--as you and I do; but he closed with this unusual petition: "And, O Lord, support us! Yes support us Lord on every leanin' side!" Have you any leaning sides? This humble man's prayer pictures them in a new way and shows the Great Supporter in a new light also. He is always walking by the Christian, ready to extend His mighty arm and steady the weak one on "every leanin' side." ｜ Mrs. Charles Cowman
