我心灵,得安宁

Dec 1, 2023

我……把我的平安赐给你们……你们心里不要忧愁,也不要害怕。(约翰福音14:27)

我们确信,无论发生任何事情,都知道耶稣所赐的平安使“我心灵得安宁”(一首圣歌的歌名——译者注)。祂对我们说:“我……把我的平安赐给你们,我赐给你们的平安不像世人给的平安。你们心里不要忧愁,也不要害怕。”耶稣所赐的平安,不取决于条件和环境;而在于知道你是上帝的孩子,你的天父掌管宇宙,祂爱你,并且总是为你筹划最好的。这就是为什么经常有人告诉你,他们曾丧失所有,但不会拿从中所学到的做任何交易,即使这意味着能挽回所有的损失。琼妮·厄尔克森(Joni Eareckson Tada)在经历事故致使她困坐轮椅,却发现了超然的平安;彭柯丽(Corrie ten Boom,《密室》的作者——译者注)在纳粹党死囚营里找到了这种平安;传教士伊丽莎白·埃利奥特(Elisabeth Elliot)在服侍杀害她丈夫的印第安部落时邂逅了这种平安。她写道:“唯有接纳,才有平安;若是放弃,平安无存。”这两者之间有很大的不同。作者克里思·戴维斯(Creath Davis)指出这一点:“放弃是向命运投诚,而接纳却是降服于上帝。放弃是静卧于空旷的宇宙,而接纳是奋起迎接充满宇宙,赋予我们使命和目标的上帝。放弃说:‘我不能’,而接纳说:‘上帝能。’放弃使生活陷入瘫痪,而接纳释放最大的创造力。放弃说:‘一切都完了。’接纳说:‘主啊,我拭目以待,将会发生什么呢?’放弃说:‘这是多大的浪费。’接纳说:‘主啊,你将怎样收拾残局,变费为利呢?’放弃说:‘我一个人。’接纳说:‘主啊,我属于你。’”
