一根钢条
经文: 「我以使你成为有快齿打粮的新器具。」（赛四十一15）
一条值五块钱的钢铁，如果作成蹄铁，可以卖十块钱；如果作成细针，可以卖
三百五十块钱；如果作成小刀，可以卖三万二千块钱；如果作成钟表上的发条，可以卖
二十五万块钱。但愿一根钢条，要值到这许多钱，必须经过多少锻炼啊！钢铁越经锻炼
、锤打、琢磨、越是值钱，这是人所共知的。
但愿这个譬喻能帮住我们缄默、安静、坚忍。受苦受得最多的人，常是结果结
得最多的人，因为我们的苦难能叫上帝得到荣耀，叫人得到祝福。 ──选
生命是很神秘的，生命确实是难以说明的，除非我们相信上帝正在为我们准备
场所和事工，那里需要经过高度锻炼的心灵来从事特殊的事工。

A Bar of Steel
Scripture: "I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument" (Isa. 41:15).
A bar of steel worth five dollars, when wrought into horseshoes, is
worth ten dollars. If made into needles, it is worth three hundred and fifty
dollars; if into penknife blades, it is worth thirty-two thousand dollars;
if into springs for watches it is worth two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars. What a drilling the poor bar must undergo to be worth this! But the
more it is manipulated, the more it is hammered and passed through the fire
, and beaten and pounded and polished, the greater the value.
May this parable help us to be silent, still, and longsuffering.
Those who suffer most are capable of yielding most; and it is through pain
that God is getting the most out of us, for His glory and the blessing of
others. --Selected
Life is very mysterious. Indeed it would be inexplicable unless we
believed that God was preparing us for scenes and ministries that lie beyond
the veil of sense in the eternal world, where highly-tempered spirits will
be required for special service.
