神一直在试图教导你什么

神试图教你什么?

We go to college to be taught a specific course of study that we selected.  How do we know what God wants to teach us?  It’s not just the what, but also the how and why He wants to teach us.  How do we listen to Him for anything?

有时候,神的信息可能不是我们可以听到的声音。有时候,它是通过一场讲道。在过去的一年中,有没有一场特别触动我们的讲道或信息?有没有圣经中的一本书在我们阅读时,感觉像神在对我们说话?有时候,它可能只是通过与教会成员的一次对话。那位成员让你想起了神的原则和教导。或者有时候,它可能与灵性事物完全无关,但似乎神正在利用那些事情教你一些东西。不管是什么,我们需要思考和反思,“神在这一年里试图教导我们什么呢?”

I remember my first year in college. It was the first week of school. I remember that I was sitting on the school bus and I was thinking the question, “What am I doing here in this school?” Because I applied to six universities but I only got into one school. I think I had pretty good grades but only one accepted me. The first week I was there, I was thinking about “Well, God must have a purpose for me to be here in this school.” Particularly on that bus ride, I was thinking about that question. When I got off the bus, and as I was walking through the campus, it probably was a message from God, I don’t think it was just a coincidence, I ran into my high school friend in the courtyard. This high school friend was one of the first people I brought to church.  I tried to preach to him. After catching up with him, as I was walking, I was thinking “Oh, God just answered my question.” What am I doing here? God was reminding me that I need to preach the gospel here.

我们在这一年中可能有不同的经历,神试图以某种方式鼓励和警告我们。我希望我们不要忘记这些教训。那些时光过得如此之快,但让我们不要忘记这些教训。

一个月前,我和一位姐妹聊天。这位姐妹最近刚生了孩子。她在思考并祈祷这个问题:“我应该待在家里陪孩子们,还是我应该继续工作?”她不断地为此祈祷。她真的很犹豫。在一次祈祷中,她听到神对她说话。她听到主耶稣告诉她 “让他们看到我在你身上” ,这里的他们指的是孩子们。当她听到这个的时候,她意识到, “好吧,如果他们需要在我身上看到基督,那意味着我应该待在家里陪我的孩子。” 她将这个信息铭记在心,决定辞掉工作,全职做妈妈。

神并不一定要像这样清楚地向你说话,但神有很多种方式来说话。有时候是在小小的温柔声音中,有时候是通过其他人、经文、讲道。我们应该将这些信息记在心里,思考它们,永远不要忘记它们。

对我自己来说,几个月前有一段时间,我感到很沮丧。我认为这是信仰和生活的一部分。即使作为一个传道人,前方的道路也并非总是蔚蓝的天空。那时候,我也感到主耶稣在鼓励我。不是通过任何我听到的声音,而是有时候,是通过见证神在其他人身上的工作。我感觉神试图与我分享的信息是 “在行善中不要丧志” 。

“我们行善,若不灰心,到了时候就要收成。” 加拉太书 6:9

有时候我们可能觉得我们在做主的工作上付出了很多精力和努力。有时候,如果我们觉得成果不多,我们可能会感到沮丧。或者,即使相反的情况发生,那也可能让人感到沮丧。

圣经告诉我们,在行善中不要丧志。如果我们持续做我们知道应该做的事,神最终会显现自己。我们应该继续行善,不要丧志。

What was an encouragement or exhortation that God has given you in these past twelve months?  Come join us to listen to His words and to find out how to do more good.
