造就内在的生命(之三)

Jul 13, 2023

内在的生命却日日更新。(哥林多后书4:16)

为外在的你感恩,并与之和睦相处。为其特长欢欣,接纳其不足。当令其奋进,并为其得到擢升高兴。但要谨记,它在不断衰退。另一方面,内在的你,能够承载一种你永远都无法想象的荣耀。“我们现在是上帝的儿女,将来如何还未显明。但我们知道,当主显现的时候,我们必会像祂,因为我们必见到祂的本体。凡心存这种盼望的人都会自洁,因为主是圣洁的。”(约翰一书3:2-3)要在永恒的事情上做最大的投资。我们有体重计、镜子和量尺来衡量外在的变化。然而,如何才能衡量我们永恒的部分呢?每人也许不同,但以下是一些可以帮助你开始衡量的“体重计、镜子和量尺”:一、自我省察和认罪;二、那些真正爱你、对你说实话的朋友;三、独处、聆听上帝话语的时候;四、花在经文、更新自己思想的时间;五、检查你的日程表和支票簿;六、诸如此类的问题:这些天我很容易变得灰心吗?跟六个月前比较,我更容易烦躁吗?七、留心你的思想。你在想些什么?嫉妒、抱怨、论断或贪欲在什么地方剥夺了你的生活和喜乐。认真对待,造就你内在的生命。
