克服压力(之二)

Jul 14, 2024

我不是按自己的旨意行,而是按差我来者的旨意行。(约翰福音5:30)

原则二:知道你自己要按谁的旨意行。耶稣并没有试图讨好每个人,你若试图去做上帝都没有做的事,不是很愚蠢吗?对耶稣来说,这是已经解决了的问题,祂的意思:“我按上帝的旨意行,没什么可说的!”上帝回应:“这是我的爱子,我甚喜悦祂。”(马太福音3:17)当忘记了你要尽力按谁的旨意行,你就会屈服于三件事:一、批评,因为你过分在意别人的看法;二、竞争,因为你害怕别人会超过你;三、冲突,因为你会觉得任何持异议的人都是威胁。耶稣说:“你们要先寻求上帝的国和祂的义,这一切都会赐给你们。”(马太福音6:33)专注于上帝的旨意会简化你的生活!不管别人怎么想,你总是做正确的事情,也即蒙上帝喜悦的事情。我们喜欢将压力归咎于他人或自己的责任:“你迫使我这么做……我必须……我只能……”事实上,除了工作,生活中几乎没有什么事情是我们非做不可的。因此,我们真正想说的是:“我选择(你自己填空吧)是因为我不想承担后果。”通常很少有人会强迫我们做任何事,所以我们不能因为自己的压力而抱怨别人。当感到压力时,是我们选择让别人置我们于压力之下。真相是,除非我们容许外界的要求施压,不然我们就不是受害者。
