6月18日 不必筹算了，上路吧！
彼得就……在水面上走，要到耶稣那里去。只因见风甚大，就害怕。（太十四29-30）
风虽然大，浪虽然高，但彼得却视若无睹。他并不怕波涛汹涌，因为他一心一意只知道主，而且因主在水面上走。过后，他发现到现实的环境，随即就下沉了。何以主不使他在水底行走，像在水面上一样呢？若不认识是主耶稣，两者都不能行。
在某些事上，我们会毅然信靠神，稍后就姑息自己，便往下沉了。所以只要认清是主，就不必问他怎样处理环境。现实本来就是如此，你一旦注目其上，就被它支配，看不见耶稣了。神就会责备你说：“为什么疑惑呢？”不管现实环境怎样，总要认识耶稣，保持对他完全的信赖。
神的话一发出，只要你有一刻的迟疑，就完了。切勿说：“唔，他到底有没有说过呢？”这时要立即孤注一掷，把一切投在他身上。你不知道他什么时候说话，但只要稍微认识他，就该不顾一切地投上。只有舍弃一切，你才会认出他来。只有当你不顾一切时，才更清楚认出他的声音。
祈祷◆主啊，求你在这天，让那使我们在你的事奉中软弱下来的自我意识永远消失，使我们所认知的就只有耶稣。
June 18 Don’t Think Now, Take The
Road
“And Peter . . . walked on the water to go to Jesus.
But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid.” Matthew 14:29-30
The wind was actually boisterous, the waves were actually high, but
Peter did not see them at first. He did not reckon with them, he simply
recognized his Lord and stepped out in recognition of Him, and walked on the
water. Then he began to reckon with the actual things, and down he went
instantly. Why could not our Lord have enabled him to walk at the bottom of the
waves as well as on the top of them? Neither could be done saving by
recognition of the Lord Jesus.
We step right out on God over some things, then self-consideration
enters in and down we go. If you are recognizing your Lord, you have no
business with where He engineers your circumstances. The actual things are, but
immediately you look at them you are overwhelmed, you cannot recognize Jesus,
and the rebuke comes: “Wherefore didst thou doubt?” Let actual circumstances be
what they may, keep recognizing Jesus, maintain complete reliance on Him.
If you debate for a second when God has spoken, it is all up. Never
begin to say – “Well, I wonder if He did speak?” Be reckless immediately, fling
it all out on Him. You do not know when His voice will come, but whenever the
realization of God comes in the faintest way imaginable, recklessly abandon. It
is only by abandon that you recognize Him. You will only realize His voice more
clearly by recklessness.
