Trust me with every fiber of your being! What I can accomplish in and through you is proportional to how much you depend on me. One aspect of this is the degree to which you trust me in a crisis or major decision. Some people fail miserably here, while others are at their best in tough times. Another aspect is even more telling: the constancy of your trust in me. People who rely on me in the midst of adversity may forget about me when life is flowing smoothy. Difficult times can jolt you into awareness of your need for me, whereas smooth sailing can lull you into the stupor of self-sufficiency.
I care as much about your tiny trust-steps through daily life as about your dramatic leaps of faith. You may think that no one notices, but the one who is always beside you sees everything - and rejoices. Consistently trusting in me is vital to flourishing in my presence.
信任我,用你全人的每一根纖維!我能在你身上和通過你完成的事情,與你對我的依賴程度成正比。其中一個方麵是在危機或重大決策中你對我的信任程度。有些人在這裏慘敗,而另一些人在艱難時期表現得最好。另一個更能說明問題的方麵是:你對我的信任的恒定性。在逆境中依賴我的人,在生活順利時可能會忘記我。困境可以喚醒你對我需求的意識,而順風順水可能會讓你陷入自足的昏昏欲睡中。
我同樣關心你在日常生活中對我的微小信任步伐,就像關心你在信仰中的戲劇性飛躍一樣。你可能認為沒有人注意到,但一直在你身旁的那位看到了一切——並為之歡喜。持續地信任我對於在我麵前茁壯成長至關重要。
