0229 降服於靜默
有些時候，我需要你警醒勇敢；在那些時刻，你信心的宣告與代求的禱告會帶來極大的影響。但也有一些時候，我呼召你與我一同坐在平靜的水邊，所以我能蘇醒你的靈魂。千萬不要低估安靜的力量，因為正是在這些安靜時刻，我在你裡面作深刻的工作。
來，坐在我身旁，把一切憂慮交託給我。放下所有的計劃籌算，只單單尋求我無處不在的愛，浸泡在我的同在里。讓我作你的神——那位全知全能的主，那位在分秒之就還能為你解決問題，是你幾年來都無法解決的。我是和平的君，當你將自己交託於那超越人所能理解的平安時，你就會明白，即使在你毫無察覺之時，我一直都是大有能力地為你做工。不要為任何事勞苦掙扎，只要來到我這裡，得着安息。降服於我同在的安靜；經歷那因信靠我而來的安息。
“我們必須獻上我們的一切，並且渴慕去經歷這種信心的安息生活，免得有人因隨從同樣的疑惑和不信的模式而跌倒。”——希伯來書 4:11
0229 Surrender to the silence.
There are times I need you to be vigilant and courageous, times when your declarations of faith and prayers of intercession make all the difference. But then there are times I call you to sit with me beside the still waters, so I can refresh your soul. Never underestimate the importance of stillness, for it is in these quiet times that I am doing a deep work in you.
Come and sit with me. Place every worry in my care. Have no agenda other than to find my ever-present love, to soak in my presence. Let me be God for you—the One who is all-knowing and all-powerful, the One who can do more in one second to solve your problems than you can in years. I am the Prince of Peace, and as you give yourself to my peace that passes understanding, you will recognize how powerfully I have been working on your behalf, even when you weren’t aware. Do not strive for anything other than to come to me and find rest. Surrender to the silence of my presence. Experience the rest that comes by trusting me.
We must give our all and be eager to experience this faith-rest life, so that no one falls short by following the same pattern of doubt and unbelief. — HEBREWS 4:11
