当你超负荷时(三)

Oct 14, 2023

不要为明天忧虑。(马太福音6:34)

一切可能出错的都出错了!你十几岁的儿子穿了鼻环,狗吐了满地脏物,马桶溢水,车子漏油。难怪你有压力!当生活让你感到束手无策时,请谨记:一、上帝仍在看顾你。当事情看起来很糟糕时,提醒自己,上帝比你的问题更大。“不要为明天忧虑,因为明天自有明天的忧虑,一天的难处一天担就够了。”(另一版本《圣经》此处说:“时候到了,上帝会帮助你处理所临到的难处。”——译者注)二、不要想着放弃!每次临界极限都是考验。在你的面前摆着多项选择,它们要么促使你放弃,要么给你力量坚持,直至得胜。保罗被鞭子抽打,被投进监狱,遭遇船只出事,被驱逐出城,但他却拒绝屈服于环境,最后他能够说:“那美好的仗,我打过了;当跑的路,我跑完了;所信的道,我持守住了。”(提摩太后书4:7)三、不属于你的事情,不要介入!当你事无巨细地监管别人,并且承担与你无关的责任时,压力就来了。制定健康的界限。如果你不确定什么是妥当的,求问上帝你可以在多大程度上介入家人和朋友的生活。四、你的忍耐极限可能是突破的开始。可曾听过“撞墙”这个说法?它是用来形容运动员精疲力竭,想要放弃时出现的状态。然而,身经百战的运动员明白到,如果他们忍受痛苦,就能够恢复元气,体验“跑步者高潮”,从而跑完赛程。因此,坚持下去,靠着上帝的恩典,你能够得胜。
