6月3日 主的秘密
耶和華與敬畏他的人親密，他必將自己的約指示他們。（詩二十五14）
朋友的標記是什麼？是他把隱藏的愁苦告訴你？不是的，是他把隱藏的喜樂告訴你。許多人會把心底的愁苦向人傾訴，但是傾吐心底的喜樂才是親密的最高表現。我們是讓神向我們吐露他的喜樂，還是不斷地把自己的心事向他傾吐，不容他有機會向我們說話？初信主的時候，對神有一大堆的請求；後來就發現神希望我們與他建立關係，摸著他的心意。耶穌對禱告的觀念－－照你的旨意而行－－我們有沒有緊緊遵守，以致獲得神的奧秘？我們覺得寶貴的往往不是神所賜的大福，而是一些細微的事物。因為這些表示他與我們奇妙無比的親密，深知我們生命的任何細節。
“……耶和華必指示他當選擇的道路。”起初我們所要的，知道神愛引導；後來既然知道日益活在神裡面，就不需要追問他的旨意是什麼，因為根本沒有想過還有其他可選擇的旨意。我們得救成聖了，神就依我們一般的選擇來引導我們；若我們選了神不喜悅的，他就會阻止，我們就要聽從。一有疑惑，要立刻止步。切勿諸多辯駁說：“為什麼不可以？”神借我們的選擇教導我們，也就是說，他引導我們依常理來選擇，我們不必經常問：“主啊，你的旨意怎樣？”這樣反阻礙了聖靈的工作。
祈禱◆啊，主啊，願意跟從你是何等有益和重要的事。我願意和極之渴望你的旨意得以成就。當我預期沒有東西比你的旨意那樣滿有榮耀，我整個人都深深地感到喜樂。
June 3 The Secret Of The Lord
“The secret （friendship R.V.） of the Lord is with them that fear Him.” Psalm
25:14
What is the sign of a friend? That he tells you secret sorrows? No, that
he tells you secret joys. Many will confide to you their secret sorrows, but
the last mark of intimacy is to confide secret joys. Have we ever let God tell
us any of His joys, or are we telling God our secrets so continually that we
leave no room for Him to talk to us? At the beginning of our Christian life we
are full of requests to God, then we find that God wants to get us into relationship
with Himself, to get us in touch with His purposes. Are we so wedded to Jesus
Christ’s idea of prayer – “Thy will be done” – that we catch the secrets of
God? The things that make God dear to us are not so much His great big
blessings as the tiny things, because they show His amazing intimacy with us;
He knows every detail of our individual lives.
“. . . him shall He teach in the way that He shall choose.” At first we
want the consciousness of being guided by God, then as we go on we live so much
in the consciousness of God that we do not need to ask what His will is,
because the thought of choosing any other will never occur to us. If we are
saved and sanctified God guides us by our ordinary choices, and if we are going
to choose what He does not want, He will check, and we must heed. Whenever
there is doubt, stop at once. Never reason it out and say – “I wonder why I
shouldn’t?” God instructs us in what we choose, that is, He guides our common
sense, and we no longer hinder His Spirit by continually saying – “Now, Lord,
what is Thy will?”
