0818 在我里面找到你的平衡
失望会临到，但你不可让它使你与我疏远；祝福也一定会倾倒下来，但当祝福临到时，不要把我忘记。虽然没有什么能够使你与我对你的爱隔绝，但分心的事会使你渐渐失去对这份爱的感知。悲伤和喜乐都可能使你更加靠近我，也可能使你远离我。在一切事上，你都必须保持对我的感知，持续寻求我，把我放在首位。
忙碌是正常的，但仇敌也试图用它来让你偏离正轨。牠想让你忙得不可开交，以至于你忽略了我。要以我为乐，就像我以你为乐一样；要让我成为你心灵的中心，我就会帮助你走过灵魂的每一个季节。我会教导你如何平衡家庭与友谊、工作与休息、梦想与目标。每天都要留出时间与我连接，与我多停留片刻，抽出身来，抛开一切，跟我一起走。一天中随时与我交谈，我会帮助你平衡生活中的每一个细节。
不要再效法你周围文化中的理念和观点，而是要借着圣灵，彻底改变你的思想方式，使你内在的生命得到更新。这能够使你明白神的旨意，活出神眼中美好、蒙神喜悦、完美无瑕的人生。——罗马书 12:2
0818 Find your balance in me
Disappointments will come, but you mustn’t allow them to distance you from me. Blessings will most certainly be poured out, but don’t forget me when they do. Though nothing can separate you from my love for you, distractions can dull your awareness of this love. Both sorrow and joy can either catapult you closer to me or cause you to drift away. In all things, you must maintain your constant awareness of me, seeking me above all else.
Busyness is normal, but it’s also something the enemy tries to use to get you off track. He wants to keep you so busy that you lose sight of me. Delight in me, the way I delight in you. Keep me as the center of your heart, and I will help you navigate through every season of the soul. I will teach you how to balance family and friendship, work and play, dreams and goals. Set aside time to connect with me each day. Linger with me. Separate yourself to come away with me. Talk to me throughout your day, and I will help you balance the details of your life.
Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes.–ROMANS 12:2
