Do everything in dependence on Me. The desire to act independently--apart from Me--springs from the root of pride. Self-sufficiency is subtle, insinuating its way into your thoughts and actions without your realizing it. But apart from Me, you can do nothing; that is, nothing of eternal value. My deepest desire for you is that you learn to depend on Me in every situation. I move heaven and earth to accomplish this purpose, but you must collaborate with Me in this training. Teaching you would be simple if I negated your free will or overwhelmed you with My Power. However, I love you too much to withdraw the godlike privilege I bestowed on you as My image-bearer. Use your freedom wisely, by relying on Me constantly. Thus you enjoy My Presence and My Peace. INSPIRATION - Jesus Calling by Sarah Young (September 6th)
在你所作的一切事上要認定我。想要離開我做事的渴望其實是來源於你的驕傲。自我滿足是以一種微妙迂回的途徑進入你的心的——有時你都沒有意識到。但是離開我,你什麽也做不了。那是因為,沒事事情是有永恒價值的。我所渴望的是你學會在任何處境下都會依靠我。我使用天地來完成這個目的,但在這訓練過程中你必須要合作。訓練你其實可以很簡單——如果我取消你的自由意誌或是用我的大能使你屈服。然而,我太愛你以至於我不願從你收回我所賜予你我的形像。智慧地運用你的自由,一直倚靠我,這樣你就能享受我的同在和平安。
