「詩與思」今天的經文是詩52,與城浸的讀經計劃相遇(52-54)
城浸靈修網最後一句「我們若試圖為神做大事,就可期望從神受重任。」與27APR及28APR 竭誠為主的文章像有些相關:

What Do You Want?
Do you seek great things for yourself? —Jeremiah 45:5
是關乎完全的降服。所以不要為自己圖謀什么,然而「若試圖為神做大事,就可期望從神受重任」便給了答案。

What You Will Get?
I will give your life to you as a prize in all places, wherever you go —Jeremiah 45:5
上年看這章文章與今年再看,重點像有點轉移。
上年「捨棄」今年是「放下自的想法與假設」,原來不同時候看事物都会有點不同。
這一點,又與星期六的講座中一個訊息同:
「邊緣上的沉思」
I think the concept of boundary might be the fitting symbol for the whole of my personal & intellectual development. At almost every point, I have had to stand between alternative possibilities of existence, to be completely at home in neither and to take no definitive stand against either ... This position is fruitful for thought, but it is dangerous in life ... This disposition & its tension have determined both my destiny & my work. (Paul Tillich, On the Boundary)
無旣定的某個設想,並不著重某處或倚靠某一個想法,開放自己的境界,可有完全不同的嶄新意念,可以是兩極的邊沿,像+分危險,這是尋求生命的方向與工作的一個大的突破。
請不為任何政治位場爭辯,這是倚靠神的一種態度,是捨棄自我,為尋求神的引導與方向,這是一个慨念,我們是讀同一本聖經,有同一的靈,如你習了聖經也知獻以撒的例子。
正如奥古斯丁所說:在信仰的根基上要合一,在可疑的問題上要彼此尊重,在一切的事上以愛心相待。
