『神答覆禱告』“God Always Answers Prayer”

【 柑縣水晶教堂Rev. Robert H. Schuller  /重明譯】

^.^~~☆~^.^~~☆~^.^~~☆★★ ~^.^~

When the idea is not right, God says, “No.”

No-when the idea is not the best. 
No-when the idea is absolutely wrong. 
No-when though it may help you, 
it could create problems for someone else.

When the time is not right, God says, “Slow.”

What a catastrophe it would be if God answered every prayer at the snap of your fingers. Do you know what would happen? God would become your servant, not your master. Suddenly God would be working for you instead of you working for God.

When you are not right, God says, “Grow.”

The selfish person has to grow in unselfishness.
The cautious person must grow in courage. 
The timid person must grow in confidence. 
The dominating person must grow in sensitivity.
The critical person must grow in tolerance. 
The negative person must grow in positive attitudes. 
The pleasure-seeking person must grow in compassion for suffering people.

When everything is all right, God says, “Go.”

Then miracles happen: 
A hopeless alcoholic is set free!
A drug addict finds release! 
A doubter becomes as a child in his belief. 
Diseased tissue responds to treatment, and healing begins.
The door to your dream suddenly swings open and there 
stands God saying, “Go!”

Remember: God’s delays are not God’s denials. God’s timing is perfect.

Patience is what we need in prayer.

神會說，「不」

當你的主意不是最好，

當你的主義完全錯誤，

當你可能愛幫助，可是卻帶給他人難題。

神會說，「慢點」

當時候不對

如果神立刻答應每個人的祈禱，會帶來災害，

這樣神變成你的僕人，不是你的主人，

神變成為你工作，而不是你為主工作。

神會說，「成長」

使一位自私的人，成長為不自私，

謹慎的人，成長為有勇氣，

膽小的人，成長為有自信，

專制的人，成長為有感性，

喜歡批評的人，成長為有容忍，

悲觀的人，成為樂觀，

喜歡享樂的人，成長為對受苦難的人同情。

神會說，「走」

奇蹟出現了！

一個酒癮者，獲得逃脫，

一位藥毒者，釋放，

一位懷疑者，變成相信，

那病狀的組織，接受治療，獲得醫治，

你那夢想之門，忽然大開，神站在那裡說，「走吧」！

請記住：神的延遲，不一定是否定，

神的時間是恰好的，

我們禱告需要的是耐心。
