1月18日 是主!

多马说:“我的主,我的神!”(约二十28)

“请你给我水喝。”我们许多人只期望耶稣解我们的渴,没想到我们该叫他得着满足!今天,我们早该倒空一切,竭尽所有服侍基督,而不再是要求主来满足我们。“你们要作我的见证”,不玷污、不妥协、不打折扣的对主尽忠;不论主放我们在什么岗位,都叫主的心满足。

当心那些与我们忠于基督的心争竞的事物。忠于基督最大的敌人是事奉主的工作。因为事奉主,比全然将生命倾倒给主容易。神呼召我们的唯一目的,是叫他心满意足,而不是呼召人去为他做点什么。神不是差派我们去为他打仗,而是在他的战场上被他所用。我们献身于事奉的热诚,是否过于我们爱主的热诚呢?

祈祷◆为着你的话——“父亲怎样怜恤他的儿女,耶和华也怎样怜恤敬畏他的人”——我赞美你。我何其认清我所领受的,绝不是你的严苛,却全然是你的慈爱。噢,愿你向我所施的慈爱、温柔与忍耐,能够透过我向其他人表达出来。

January 18 It Is The LORD!

“Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God.” John 20:28

“Give Me to drink.” How many of us are set upon Jesus Christ slaking our thirst when we ought to be satisfying Him? We should be pouring out now, spending to the last limit, not drawing on Him to satisfy us. “Ye shall be witnesses unto Me” – that means a life of unsullied, uncompromising and unbribed devotion to the Lord Jesus, a satisfaction to Him wherever He places us.

Beware of anything that competes with loyalty to Jesus Christ. The greatest competitor of devotion to Jesus is service for Him. It is easier to serve than to be drunk to the dregs. The one aim of the call of God is the satisfaction of God, not a call to do something for Him. We are not sent to battle for God, but to be used by God in His battlings. Are we being more devoted to service than to Jesus Christ?
