单独与主亲近
经文: 「散了众人以后，他就独自上山去祷告。到了晚上，只有祂一人在那里。」（太
十四23）
主耶稣在世为人的时候，常喜欢独自与上帝亲近。我们都知道与人交接是一件
多么费力的事情！主耶稣也知道，所以祂需要机会去恢复祂的能力。祂在世上为人，所
以祂有人的疲乏。
主既如此，何况我们呢？我们岂不更需要单独与父上帝亲近么？如果有什么人
能例外──不需要与上帝单独亲近──的话，这人定规是主耶稣。如今主既不能一直工
作，毫不安息，那么，就没有人能了。
但愿每一个上帝的仆人看见这个功课的重要！但愿上帝的教会知道怎样训练信
徒夺取这无上的权利！但愿每一个信徒都有时间单独与上帝亲近！ ──慕安得烈（

栾莫丁（Lamertine）在一本书上告诉我们：在他花园里有一处极隐密的地方
，他的母亲每天必到那里去安静一小时；这地方是从来没有人会进去打扰的。亲爱的读
者！也许你要说：你没有这样安静的地方。不要紧，主耶稣说，进入你的内屋！在里我
们必会听见神秘的音乐。 ──选
信徒阿，你当学习单独与主亲近！经上记着说：「若不用比喻，就不对他们讲
。没有人的时侯，就把一切的道讲给门徒听。」（可四34）你不要希奇，你自己也可以
这样经历的。如果你要明白，你只消把众人散开，让他们一个一个出去，直等到只剩下
你和主….
这时候，你每一个思想会变成「上帝和我！上帝和我！」上帝和你会非常接近
──接近得好似在这无涯的宇宙中，除了祂的心和你的心在跳动以外，没有别的东西了
。哦，信徒阿，学习这个！学习退避群众！学习内心的安静！学习歌唱「上帝和我！上
帝和我！」不让一个人来插入你和天使的摔跤！ ──马德胜（Geo. Matheson）
An Hour In The Garden
Scripture: "He went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when evening was
come, he was there alone" (Matt. 14:23).
The man Christ Jesus felt the need of perfect solitude--Himself
alone, entirely by Himself, alone with Himself. We know how much intercourse
with men draws us away from ourselves and exhausts our powers. The man
Christ Jesus knew this, too, and felt the need of being by Himself again, of
gathering all His powers, of realizing fully His high destiny, His human
weakness, His entire dependence on the Father.
How much more does the child of God need this--himself alone with
spiritual realities, himself alone with God the Father. If ever there were
one who could dispense with special seasons for solitude and fellowship, it
was our Lord. But He could not do His work or maintain His fellowship in
full power, without His quiet time.
Would God that every servant of His understood and practiced this
blessed art, and that the Church knew how to train its children into some
sense of this high and holy privilege, that every believer may and must have
his time when he is indeed himself alone with God. Oh, the thought to have
God all alone to myself, and to know that God has me all alone to Himself! |
