0407 發現我造你的所是
永生神的兒女，十字架的僕人，尋求我心的人——起來！
愛的勇士，讚美的詩人，我真理的教師——起來！
將你的心降服，獻上自私與驕傲為祭，我就把我的榮耀賜給你。放下分心之事；拿起寶劍，斬殺那為自我打算的巨人。棄絕為你自己建立名聲的渴望；不要讓它壓過你被認識為基督徒的渴望。我賜給你健全的心智，使你能聽見並順服我所說的一切。專心於我，且預備你自己，因為最榮耀的日子還在前頭。我呼召你戰鬥，而非部分時間的委身。現在正是讓至高的讚美充滿你心的時候；唱出你虔誠的頌歌，讓你的敬拜升到我面前。不要懼怕完全的降服；讓我開啟你的靈魂，以至我的同在如洪水湧入。因為當你將一切都交出給我，我必向你顯明你真實的身份。通往我同在的道路已經恩准給你，以至你將會認識我，發現我造你的所是，並將我的榮耀帶到地極。
你們是神所揀選的珍貴祭司，也是君王，是被分別出來的屬靈“國度”，作為神摯愛的人。祂呼召你們出黑暗，並經歷祂奇妙的光明，如今祂宣告你們是完全屬祂的，祂這樣做，是為要你們把祂榮耀奇妙的作為傳揚到全世界。——彼得前書 2:9
0407 Discover who I have created you to be.
Child of the living God, servant of the cross, seeker of my heart—arise!
Warrior of love, poet of praise, teacher of my truth—arise!
Yield your heart. Sacrifice selfishness and pride, and I will give you my glory. Lay aside distractions. Take the sword and slay the giant of self-seeking. Forsake the yearning to build a name for yourself; don’t allow it to override your longing to be known by my name. I have given you a sound mind to hear and obey all that I say. Set your heart on me and prepare yourself, for the greatest days of glory are ahead. I call you to active duty, not part-time commitment. It is time for the highest praises to fill your heart. Sing your songs of devotion. Let your worship rise before me. Do not be afraid to completely surrender. Allow me to break open your soul so that my presence floods in. For when you yield your all to me, I will unveil your true identity. Access to my presence has been granted, so that you will know me, discover who I’ve created you to be, and carry my glory to the ends of the earth.
You are God’s chosen treasure-priests who are kings, a spiritual “nation” set apart as God’s devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to experience his marvelous light, and now he claims you as his very own. He did this so that you would broadcast his glorious wonders throughout the world. — 1 PETER 2:9
