10月27日 試煉有時




經文:「你的波浪洪濤漫過我身。」(詩42:7)

親愛的讀者,請讓我們在主為我們預備的地位上好好站住,盡已所能的去做。我們的神常常樂意給我們一些試煉,因為祂希望在經過激烈的奮鬥之後,我們可以成長得更加強壯。

生長在風雨下,又飽受風雨擊打的樹木,往往比生長在隱密的山谷內,
從未受過風雨摧殘的樹木,扎根更深。人生也是如此,凡是偉大的人物都是從艱苦中長成的。--選

His Billows

Scripture: "All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me" (Ps. 42:7).

Stand up in the place where the dear Lord has put you, and there do your best. God gives us trial tests. He puts life before us as an antagonist face to face. Out of the buffeting of a serious conflict we are expected to grow strong. The tree that grows where tempests toss its boughs and bend its trunk often almost to breaking, is often more firmly rooted than the tree which grows in the sequestered valley where no storm ever brings stress or strain. The same is true of life. The grandest character is grown in hardship. –Selected
