不要沮喪,因為也許最後一把鑰匙才開得了鎖-5月23日

「他們的智慧無法可施。於是他們在患難中哀求耶和華,祂就領他們從禍患中出來。」-詩篇107:27-28
宇深鎖的基督徒啊,你是否在重重的憂患中無計可施?
前面茫茫的未知,生活重重的擔子,世界咄咄的催逼,是否使你孤單,在戰場上旁若無援?
別忘了,當人的智慧被帶到盡頭,神的能力才能彰顯展露。

當疲憊痛苦使你視線昏暗,當重重憂患令你無計可施;
當沒有終點的苦難令你全身傷痕累累;
當暈眩、麻木、茫然是你生活的全部;
別忘了,當人的智慧被帶到盡頭,耶穌的愛才能圍繞守候。

你是否真的無計可施,似乎準備迎接終點?
那麼你如今面臨之境,正是基督得以顯現之地。
你的腳步正邁向光明路程,不曾失誤的神正一步一步前頭引領。
別忘了,當人的智慧被帶到盡頭,祂的「神能」才能得以起頭。
-威爾遜

不要沮喪,因為也許最後一把鑰匙才開得了鎖。

"At their wit's end, they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out" (Ps. 107:27, 28).
Are you standing at "Wit's End Corner,"
Christian, with troubled brow?
Are you thinking of what is before you,
And all you are bearing now?
Does all the world seem against you,
And you in the battle alone?
Remember--at "Wit's End Corner"
Is just where God's power is shown.

Are you standing at "Wit's End Corner,"
Blinded with wearying pain,
Feeling you cannot endure it,
You cannot bear the strain,
Bruised through the constant suffering,
Dizzy, and dazed, and numb?
Remember--at "Wit's End Corner"
Is where Jesus loves to come.

Are you standing at "Wit's End Corner"?
Your work before you spread,
All lying begun, unfinished,
And pressing on heart and head,
Longing for strength to do it,
Stretching out trembling hands?
Remember--at. "Wit's End Corner"
The Burden-bearer stands.

Are you standing at "Wit's End Corner"?
Then you're just in the very spot
To learn the wondrous resources
Of Him who faileth not:
No doubt to a brighter pathway
Your footsteps will soon be moved,
But only at "Wit's End Corner"
Is the "God who is able" proved.
--Antoinette Wilson
