 336  中翻英 (76)              God is faithful.                        上帝是信實的.                3/25/2023

三月二十五日的曠野筵席要信徒默思他們的信心。我們不可以像法律賽人在人前誇張他們的信心。我們在屋內禱告，在暗中的天父，祂在暗中察看我們，必然獎賞。

「.... 禱告你在暗中的父，你父在暗中察看，必然報答你。」（太6:6）

我們無須圖謀設計，去吸引別人注意我們的工作。神在祂那最高主權的安排下，能負起這個責任。我們是在生活上信靠神的，但又何需自我宣傳呢？當我听見神的仆人們，強調他們如何憑信心生活這件事時，我就覺得厭煩。我們是否真的相信神的管理和祂的預備呢？如果是，那我們就能信靠主能將我們的需要指示給別的圣徒們知道，祂也會為我們備辦一切而用不著我們去宣告這些需要。甚至當別人從我們的生活方式，推論我們有了私人的收入，以至停止他們的奉獻，我們也無須介怀。我勸告我的年青弟兄們，要三緘其口，這不但對個人的所需是如此，甚至自己對神那點信靠也是這樣，好叫一切的需要，能更好的證實主的預備。信心越大的人，就越少講他的大信心。

".... Then your Father,  who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." (Matthew 6:6  NIV)

We need not to figure out what for attracting attention of others to look our work. God can take this under on His sovereign arrangement. We trust God in our lives.  Why do we need to proclaim it by ourselves? It makes me tiresome as I hear God's people stressing that they live by faith . Do we really believe in His sovereign and provision? If it is so, then we can trust the Lord to show our needs to the other saints, and He will do everything for us without us declaring them. We don't even have to worry when others stop giving as they infer from our lifestyle that we have a private income. I advise my young brothers to keep silent, not only for their personal needs, but also for their little trust in God, so that all their needs can better prove the Lord’s provision. A person with greater faith does not mention his great faith.
