要耐心,上帝成事有时间

Oct 8, 2023

要在耶和华面前安静,耐心等候祂。(诗篇37:7)

“人生不如意十有八九”这句老话,并不见得是对的。当你“以耶和华为乐,祂必成全你的愿望。”(诗篇37:4)然而,上帝通常会让你等候。丹尼斯·霍利(Dennis Wholey)说:“等候是一门艺术。如果能等两年,你就能实现今天无论付出多大的努力,投入多少金钱,撞了多少次南墙都无法达到的目标。”有些东西是你今天得不到,将来才能拥有的。因此,搁置现有的生活,一味执拗地去完成某件事,逼疯自己,实在是没有意义。当时机成熟,自然会水到渠成。雅各说:“你们要坚忍到底,使你们纯全、完备、毫无缺欠。”(雅各书1:4)上帝容许某些事情发生,为了能够教导我们这些重要的原则:一、培养新的技能和思维方式;二、仁慈待人并克制自己的反应;三、在困境中持守信心。保罗说:“……心存怜悯、恩慈、谦虚、温柔和忍耐。”(歌罗西书3:12)扩充版《圣经》此节把“忍耐”解释为“以好的态度来忍受所临到的一切”。“盼望中要有喜乐,患难中要坚忍,祷告要恒切。”(罗马书12:12)当你花时间等候上帝的同时,祂在建造你的品格,这是通过别的方式无法做到的。当祂完工时,你会变得更刚强,更明智。你也会成熟到可以处理好祂为你所预备的。因此,你不要让仇敌搅扰你或策划你的环境,以致欲速不达。“要在耶和华面前安静,耐心等候祂。”
