「你們出來必不至急忙，行走也不至奔逃。」－以賽亞書52:12
我們實在不明白在安息裡的能力。
我們總是不讓自己稍有喘息的機會，我們讓自己非疲於奔命，四處勞碌不可，以至於我們從來沒有給過神機會，讓祂在我們身上製作甄陶。
你必須相信，神若要在我們身上作工，我們需要有個能聽的耳朵，細細聽祂向我們說：「站住」（出14:13）、「安坐等候」（得3:18）、「要休息」（詩46:10）。
基督徒生活中一個大的難處就是：我們一心想努力成為一個好基督徒，卻沒有讓出空間讓神在我們身上作祂想做的事。就像你我在拍照時，也得靜待攝影者的指示。
神對於我們有一個永遠的旨意，那就是使我們有祂兒子的形像；為了使祂的旨意成就，我們需要順從等候。
我們聽了太多如何為神作工的事了，現在我們需要的，乃是學習如何安靜。－碎渣兒
"Ye shall not go out with haste" (Isa. 52:12).
I do not believe that we have begun to understand the marvelous power there is in stillness. We are in such a hurry--we must be doing--so that we are in danger of not giving God a chance to work. You may depend upon it, God never says to us, "Stand still," or "Sit still," or "Be still," unless He is going to do something.
This is our trouble in regard to our Christian life; we want to do something to be Christians when we need to let Him work in us. Do you know how still you have to be when your likeness is being taken?
Now God has one eternal purpose concerning us, and that is that we should be like His Son; and in order that this may be so, we must be passive. We hear so much about activity, may be we need to know what it is to be quiet. --Crumbs
