背起你的十字架(之二)

Dec 27, 2023

“……天天背起他的十字架跟从我。”(路加福音9:23)

以下三个问题,能帮助你识别你的十字架:一、上帝带领我朝哪个方向走?如果你觉得自己的背景不足轻重,再想想吧。也许它是通向你未来的路线图。回顾一下你的经历和生活方式。在埃及长大的经历,预备摩西站在法老面前。大卫多年牧羊,训练了他带领整个民族。保罗作为享有盛誉的希伯来学者和罗马公民,有独特的资历同时服侍信徒和非信徒。二、上帝把什么负担放在我心里?保罗说:“我心里切望并向上帝祈求的,就是以色列人能够得救。”(罗马书10:1)保罗激情涌动,渴望看到他的同胞得救。是什么在驱使和激励你?为无家可归的人建造收容所?反对虐待和歧视?尽量去疗养院探望老人,在离开时看看你是否感到振奋;或者看望一群特殊儿童,他们教给你的东西会多于你教他们的!充实的感受源于你心里的渴望,而不仅仅是你脑中的主意。三、我能在哪些方面使用我的恩赐?《圣经》说“我们各人都是按照基督所赐的分量领受恩典。”(以弗所书4:7)尽管“工作各有不同,但上帝是同一位,祂在众人当中成就万事。圣灵给各人不同的恩赐为要使众人得益处。”(哥林多前书12:6-7)你怎么区别是自发的想法还是上帝赋予的创意呢?所罗门说:“人心中有许多计划,唯耶和华的旨意成就。”(箴言19:21)人为的思想“保质期很短”,但上帝的方向却不变;并且会恒久不衰。
