神从来不出差错
1月12日
“我的恩典够你用的，因为我的能力是在人的软弱上显得完全。”所以我更喜欢夸自己的软弱，好叫基督的能力覆庇我。（林后12:9）
当我们躺在病床上的时候神会特别地亲近我们，亲自使病床变得柔软清洁，并且悉心关怀我们。他使病床变得舒适并擦去我们的眼泪，在这艰难的时刻他会耐心照料我们，爱我们。如果你告诉我为什么园丁要修剪灌木，有时候会剪掉茂密的分支，那么我会告诉你为什么属神的人会经历苦难。神的手从来不会出现差错，当然他也不会犯错。他的每一个行为都是为我们的好处，必须不断毁坏里面的老我，重新塑造我们的形象，使我们从瑕疵变得完美。
今日祷告
主啊帮助我，当苦难来临的时候也能荣耀你的名。
God Never Makes Mistakes
January 12
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
—2 Corinthians 12:9
God is especially close to us when we are lying on a sickbed. God will make the bed soft and will freshen it with His presence and with His tender care. He makes the bed comfortable and wipes away our tears. He ministers to us with special tenderness at such a time and reveals His great love for us. Tell me why the gardener trims and prunes his rosebushes, sometimes cutting away productive branches, and I will tell you why God’s people are afflicted. God’s hand never slips. He never makes a mistake. His every move is for our own good and for our ultimate good. Oftentimes He must deform us and mutilate our own image. Deformity sometimes precedes conformity.
Prayer for the day
When times of tribulation come, help me, dear Lord, to glory in them for Your sake.
