你的态度可嘉吗?

Sep 8, 2023

耶和华却衡量人心。(箴言16:2)

所罗门说:“人看自己的行为都纯全,但是耶和华却衡量人心。”作家伊莎贝尔·沃尔斯利(Isabel Wolseley)说:“我是个温和、容易相处的人。但当我和朋友有分歧时,就不是那么回事了。我告诉她我是对的,以及对的原因,而且其他人都认可我一直是对的。问题是我并不为此感觉良好,反而高兴不起来。我祷告说:‘主啊,你知道我是对的,可为什么却觉得糟透了?’我琢磨了好几天,然后感到祂的回答:‘是的,你是对的。但你的态度错了。’在意见分歧中我赢得了一点小胜利,但在友谊方面却输了。我请求朋友原谅我。她答应了,我们的友谊得以恢复。这是几年前发生的事情。你知道吗?我甚至都不记得当时是为了什么而争辩,只觉得整个身心都投进去。但现在就不再如此了。” 不要因为你需要“总是对的”,就失去向他人表示恩慈并让上帝在他们身上工作的机会。对于我们当中顽固不化的人,雅各写道:“……要快快地听,慢慢地说……”(雅各书1:19)你必须要“赢得”对某人说话的权利,他才能听得进去。这需要时间。这也意味着你要尽力了解他们正在经历的,不然他们就会排斥你。问问你自己:“我的目标是什么?为了赢得争辩?显得有面子、聪明?”这无疑是破坏关系的做法。保罗写道:“洗心革面。”(以弗所书4:23)重要之事:当你留心圣灵所说的,祂就会在你需要调整态度的时候告诉你。
