尋求神的心意是人一輩子的功課
以利戶對約伯說出了這樣的話來
是期待約伯能回轉自己去明白神去尋找神
如同過去的日子一般
今日你我也是時常要明白神尋求神
看看神對你我的計畫
了解自己該何去何從
不論神將你帶到哪裡,那裏就是你要在的地方。
服事神並不需要知道在哪個地方
而是需要知道哪個地方是神的乎召
神的乎召十分奇妙
往往超過你所能想像的
或許此刻你我正面對生命中的難題
或許是家庭、工作、教會或是身體上的困境
但相信神
他會帶領你我走在祂的道路
也會讓你知道
何處是祂的位置與安排
昨日一位牧師(陳惠世)的短詩
讓我深深的覺得受用無窮
與大家一起分享
===============================
我潺潺的生命河,
絕不為這些石頭逗留....
潺潺生命河...
有些人存心傷害你
有些人故意激怒你
無論存心或故意
他們都傷透了你的心
傷心欲絕時,
所需要的是,
堅定支持你的人,
給你可靠的肩膀,
給你撫慰的雙手,
不需要話多,
只要聆聽泣訴...
倚著那可靠的肩膀,
在汨汨淚水中,
心 會逐漸清明,
清明 而後安定...
然後看見前面該走的路,
毫不猶疑,
信步向前,
不再逗留....
生命不該浪費在不知珍惜的人身上....
毫不猶疑...
信步向前...
我潺潺的生命河,
絕不為這些石頭逗留...
==============================
有人回應了他的詩說:
石頭激起美麗的浪花,饒恕帶來生命的祝福,都是美麗。
我想這正是跟隨神的人最需要的生命圖畫
送給每一位在生命中想要明白神與尋求神的弟兄姊妹
因為神的美麗總在石頭激起的浪花之中
約伯記
33:14 神說一次、兩次,世人卻不理會。
For God speaks in one way, and in two, though man does not perceive it.
33:15 人躺在床上沉睡的時候, 神就用夢和夜間的異象,
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, while they slumber on their beds,
33:16 開通他們的耳朵,將當受的教訓印在他們心上,
then he opens the ears of men, and terrifies them with warnings,
33:17 好叫人不從自己的謀算,不行驕傲的事(原文是將驕傲向人隱藏),
that he may turn man aside from his deed, and cut off pride from man;
33:18 攔阻人不陷於坑裡,不死在刀下。
he keeps back his soul from the Pit, his life from perishing by the sword.
33:19 人在床上被懲治,骨頭中不住地疼痛,
"Man is also chastened with pain upon his bed, and with continual strife in his bones;
33:20 以致他的口厭棄食物,心厭惡美味。
so that his life loathes bread, and his appetite dainty food.
33:21 他的肉消瘦,不得再見;先前不見的骨頭都凸出來。
His flesh is so wasted away that it cannot be seen; and his bones which were not seen stick out.
33:22 他的靈魂臨近深坑;他的生命近於滅命的。
His soul draws near the Pit, and his life to those who bring death.
33:23 一千天使中,若有一個作傳話的與 神同在,指示人所當行的事,
If there be for him an angel, a mediator, one of the thousand, to declare to man what is right for him;
33:24 神就給他開恩,說:救贖他免得下坑;我已經得了贖價。
and he is gracious to him, and says, `Deliver him from going down into the Pit, I have found a ransom;
33:25 他的肉要比孩童的肉更嫩;他就返老還童。
let his flesh become fresh with youth; let him return to the days of his youthful vigor';
33:26 他禱告 神, 神就喜悅他,使他歡呼朝見 神的面; 神又看他為義。
then man prays to God, and he accepts him, he comes into his presence with joy. He recounts to men his salvation,
33:27 他在人前歌唱說:我犯了罪,顛倒是非,這竟與我無益。
and he sings before men, and says: `I sinned and perverted what was right, and it was not requited to me.
33:28 神救贖我的靈魂免入深坑;我的生命也必見光。
He has redeemed my soul from going down into the Pit, and my life shall see the light.'
33:29 神兩次、三次向人行這一切的事,
"Behold, God does all these things, twice, three times, with a man,
33:30 為要從深坑救回人的靈魂,使他被光照耀,與活人一樣。
to bring back his soul from the Pit, that he may see the light of life.
33:31 約伯啊,你當側耳聽我的話,不要作聲,等我講說。
Give heed, O Job, listen to me; be silent, and I will speak.
33:32 你若有話說,就可以回答我;你只管說,因我願以你為是。
If you have anything to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify you.
33:33 若不然,你就聽我說;你不要作聲,我便將智慧教訓你。
If not, listen to me; be silent, and I will teach you wisdom."
