3月5日 仆人的生活
于是以利亚照着耶和华的话、去住在约但河东的基立溪旁。——列王记上17:5
作为上帝的仆人,我们常常会感到孤单。保罗说“人们都离弃我”。传福音时的孤独是我们需付的代价。然而,我们并不是孤单的,因为有圣灵陪伴我们,正如以利亚在基立溪旁的时候。真正的神仆人的生活是沉重的。如果他是上帝所使用的器皿,他心内的这份重担只有志同道合的人才能理解。
今日祷告
全能的上帝,正如你的圣灵照顾以利亚那样,我知道侍奉你的路上我并不孤单。
March 5: The Life of a Servant
So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord . . .
—1 Kings 17:5
As messengers of God, we will often lead lonely lives. “All men forsook me,” said Paul. It is a price we have to pay; there is a loneliness in the Gospel. Yet you will not be alone, because you will be ministered to by the Spirit of God, as Elijah was ministered to at the brook Cherith. A true messenger lives a burdened life. If he is the Lord’s vessel, he carries in his heart a burden for souls none can share but those who know it firsthand.
Prayer for the day:
Just as Your Spirit took care of Elijah, I know I am not alone in Your service, almighty God.
