經文:「我為何...時常哀痛?」(詩42:9) 親愛的讀者,你能不能回答這個問題?是甚麼原因讓你時常哀痛毫無喜樂? 你為甚麼容許未知的憂鬱如此傷害你?又是誰告訴你黑夜永遠不會變為白晝? 是誰告訴你冬雪與冰雹永遠不會融化?又是誰告訴你風雨只會越下越猛烈? 是誰說失望一定會變成絕望?豈不知嚴冬一過就是春夏麼? 所以,你當仰望神!--司布眞 C. H. Spurgeon 新譯|荒漠甘泉讀書會

Scripture: "Why go I mourning?" (Psalm 42:9). Canst thou answer this, believer? Canst thou find any reason why thou art so often mourning instead of rejoicing? Why yield to gloomy anticipations? Who told thee that the night would never end in day? Who told thee that the winter of thy discontent would proceed from frost to frost, from snow and ice, and hail, to deeper snow, and yet more heavy tempest of despair? Knowest thou not that day follows night, that flood comes after ebb, that spring and summer succeed winter? Hope thou then! Hope thou ever! for God fails thee not. --C. H. Spurgeon | Mrs. Charles Cowman
