为了今日之时

Oct 6, 2024

“谁知道你得了王后之位不是为了今日之时呢?”(以斯帖记4:14)

摩西八十岁才开始他的事工,而以斯帖在少女时就开始服侍。“谁知道你得了王后之位不是为了今日之时呢?”听到末底改的这番话,她本来可以轻易地反驳:“给我时间去成长、结婚、生子,等实现梦想之后,再冒生命危险去拯救犹太民族吧。”但她没有,反而说:“我要违例去见王,我若死就死吧。”(以斯帖记4:16)在你等候上帝成就某事期间,祂在你生命中所做的,通常比你所等待的更为重要。有时你觉得自己已经准备好了,但上帝知道并非如此,所以祂就把你放在“信心学校”里。你在那里学习倾听“老师”(也即圣灵)的声音,学习功课,考试合格并毕业,这样上帝才能使用你。“信心学校”不太舒适,但上帝更注重你的品行,而非你的惬意。传教士南希·柯克雷尔(Nancy Cockrell)写道:“一直以来,上帝的计划就是把你带到此处来事奉祂,也即借着使用你的恩赐去服侍他人,可谓“用兵一时”。祂已经给你恩典去将基督的爱和品行显示出来,在黑暗的世界里做光,正是派上用场。在上帝国度的事工里,你有个特别的位置,感触生命,只有你才能做到,就是为了今日之时。”因此,这里有个让你回答的问题:今天上帝是否告诉你说“你的时机已到”?
