奋斗与勇敢-第208章
(王上19:1-8)
“(以利亚)就坐在那里求死,说:耶和华啊,罢了;求祢取我的性命,因为我不胜于我的列祖”(王上19:4)。{CC 213.1}[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
1 Kings 19:1-8[1]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
在以利亚表现那么不屈不挠的勇敢之后,在他那么完全地得胜了国王、祭司和众民之后,他似乎决不会再灰心丧志或因威吓而怯懦的。但那蒙上帝赐予那么多慈爱眷顾之凭据的人,竟不能摆脱血肉之体的脆弱,却在这黑暗的时刻失去信心和勇气了。……如果他仍然留在原处,如果他以上帝为避难所,为他的力量,为真理屹立而立,那么,上帝必要保护他不致受害了。耶和华必要降罚在耶洗别身上而给他另一次显著的胜利。……{CC 213.2}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
And he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. 1 Kings 19:4. {CC 213.1}[2]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
在每一个人的经验中,总不免有非常失望和极度灰心的日子,──在那些日子,人要受尽痛苦,饱经忧患,很难相信上帝仍是祂地上儿女的慈悲恩主;在那些日子,有种种困难折磨心灵,甚至觉得生不如死。许多人就是在这样的时候放松了他们握住上帝的手。……如果我们能在这种考验的时候以属灵的眼光看明上帝的美意,我们便可看见许多天使正在设法拯救我们脱离我们自己,并努力使我们的脚稳稳地踏在那比永久的山岭更为牢靠的根基上。这样,就有新的信心和新的生命从我们里面涌流出来了。……{CC 213.3}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
It would seem that after showing courage so undaunted, after triumphing so completely over king and priests and people, Elijah could never afterward have given way to despondency nor been awed into timidity. But he who had been blessed with so many evidences of God’s loving care was not above the frailties of mankind, and in this dark hour his faith and courage forsook him.... Had he remained where he was, had he made God his refuge and strength, standing steadfast for the truth, he would have been shielded from harm. The Lord would have given him another signal victory by sending His judgments on Jezebel.... {CC 213.2}[3]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
灰心的人有一个可靠的救治之方,──信靠,祈祷,工作。信心和工作所给予人的胆量和愉快是与日俱增的。……即使在最黑暗的日子,当一切现象似乎是最难堪的时候,不要惧怕。“当信服上帝”(可11:22)。祂知道你的需要。祂具有一切的权柄。祂那无限的慈爱和怜悯是没有止境的。……凡祂忠心仆人所需要效能,祂必赐给他们。……{CC 213.4}[4]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
Into the experience of all there come times of keen disappointment and utter discouragement—days when sorrow is the portion, and it is hard to believe that God is still the kind benefactor of His earthborn children; days when troubles harass the soul, till death seems preferable to life. It is then that many lose their hold on God.... Could we at such times discern with spiritual insight the meaning of God’s providences we should see angels seeking to save us from ourselves, striving to plant our feet upon a foundation more firm than the everlasting hills, and new faith, new life, would spring into being.... {CC 213.3}[4]

上帝是否在以利亚受试炼的时辰丢弃了他呢?断乎没有!无论是在以利亚觉得自己被上帝和世人遗弃的时候,还是他的祷告蒙应允,天上降火照亮全山的时候,上帝总是爱祂仆人的。(PK159-166){CC 213.5}[5]
奋斗与勇敢-第208章
For the disheartened there is a sure remedy—faith, prayer, work. Faith and activity will impart assurance and satisfaction that will increase day by day.... In the darkest days, when appearances seem most forbidding, fear not. Have faith in God. He knows your need. He has all power. His infinite love and compassion never weary.... And He will bestow upon His faithful servants the measure of efficiency that their need demands.... {CC 213.4}[5]
