6月14日 趕快行動！

你們要常在我裡面。（約十五4）

藉著救贖，耶穌的靈進到我裡面。此後，我就得完全按照主的心意耐心地被塑造。神不會使我像耶穌一樣去思想，我必須自己去做，我必須將所有的心意奪回，使之順服基督。“常在我裡面。”－－在知識上、金錢上，並在一切與人生有關的事上。我們不是活在一個匣子裡。

我有沒有阻撓神行事；認為這些事會妨礙我與他的交通？這是魯莽的態度。環境怎樣根本不重要，重要的是我是否確實的住在主裡，正如我在禱告中與主同住一樣。我無須自行改變或調整環境；對於主，這種內住的光景是分毫不受影響的。主無論置身何處，都與神同住。他從不挑選環境，只柔和謙卑的順服父神為他所作的一切安排。試想主的人生是何等的閒適！至於我們，卻把神置於緊張關頭，沒有與基督一同藏在神裡面的那種平穩。

想想那些妨礙你與主同住的東西：“主啊，是的，不過等一下，我要先做這個；是的，我完成了這個就與你同住；過了這個星期就沒事了，那時就可以與你同住。”趕快行動吧！現在就住在主裡！在起初的階段，要不斷的努力工作，直至成為生命的律，使你在不知不覺中便與他同住。所以，你無論置身何處，都要立志住在耶穌裡面。

祈禱◆噢，主啊，我懷著讚美和感恩來到你面前，但仍然渴求對你的良善自覺地有更深的欣賞。求你在今天賜福予我，讓我有更廣闊的胸懷和能力去讚美你。

June 14 Get A Move On

“Abide in Me.” John 15:4

The Spirit of Jesus is put into me by the Atonement, then I have to construct with patience the way of thinking that is exactly in accordance with my Lord. God will not make me think like Jesus, I have to do it myself; I have to bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. “Abide in Me” – in intellectual matters, in money matters, in every one of the matters that make human life what it is. It is not a bandbox life.

Am I preventing God from doing things in my circumstances because I say it will hinder my communion with Him? That is an impertinence. It does not matter what my circumstances are, I can be as sure of abiding in Jesus in them as in a prayer meeting. I have not to change and arrange my circumstances myself. With Our Lord the inner abiding was unsullied; He was at home with God wherever His body was placed. He never chose His own circumstances, but was meek towards His Father’s dispensations for Him. Think of the amazing leisure of Our Lord’s life! We keep God at excitement point, there is none of the serenity of the life hid with Christ in God about us.

Think of the things that take you out of abiding in Christ – Yes, Lord, just a minute, I have got this to do; Yes, I will abide when once this is finished; when this week is over, it will be all right, I will abide then. Get a move on; begin to abide now. In the initial stages it is a continual effort until it becomes so much the law of life that you abide in Him unconsciously. Determine to abide in Jesus wherever you are placed.
