不要試圖在時機未到之前解決問題,接受每天隻能活在當下的限製。當有事情引起你的注意時,問問自己它是否屬於今天的日程安排。如果不是,就把它交托給祂的管轄,然後繼續今天的職責。當你遵循這個做法時,你的生活將會變得美好而簡單:萬物皆有定時,萬物皆有其時。
與祂同在的生活不是複雜或混亂的。當你的注意力集中在祂的同在上時,許多曾經困擾你的事情就會失去對你的影響力。雖然你周圍的世界是混亂和困惑的,但請記住祂已經戰勝了世界,祂將這些事告訴你,要讓你在祂裏麵得到平安。
Stop trying to work things out before their times have come, accept the limitations of living one day at a time. When something comes to your attention, ask him whether or not it is part of today’s agenda. If it isn’t, release it into his care and go on about today’s duties. When you follow this practice, there will be a beautiful simplicity about your life: a time for everything, and everything in its time.
A life lived close to him is not complicated or cluttered. When your focus is on his presence, many things that once troubled you lose their power over you. Though the world around you is messy and confusing, remember that He has overcome the world, He has told you these things, so that in him you have peace.
