你有超乎想像的潛力—-忍耐不僅是一種美德, 也是一種能力, 讓你能夠勝過艱困的環境. 雅各書1:2-4”我的弟兄們, 你們落在百般試煉中, 都要以為大喜樂. 因為知道你們的信心, 經過試煉就生忍耐. 但忍耐也當成功, 使你們完全無備, 毫無缺欠.”這是說試煉是上帝用來成全信心的方法, 而經過試煉的信心, 就會生出忍耐. 忍耐不是咬牙切齒, 無可奈何的忍耐. 忍耐是在信心中的等候. 就像舊約中亞伯拉罕所經歷的. 上帝在亞伯拉罕75歲的時候, 告訴他將會有一個自己的兒子. 可是當亞伯拉罕第一個兒子生下來, 中間過了25年. 在漫長等候的日子, 亞伯拉罕沒有在等候中失去信心. 在25年忍耐等候中, 讓他孕育出信心等候的能力. 而最後終於有了自己的兒子. 他也成為信心之父
You have potential beyond imagination – Patience is not only a virtue, it is a power that enables you to overcome difficult circumstances. James 1:2-4 “My brethren, you are under many trials consider it great joy in all of you, for you know that your faith produces perseverance through trials. But let perseverance succeed, so that you will be completely unprepared and lacking.” This means that trials are used by God to perfect your faith. Patience is not gnashing of teeth, helpless patience. Patience is waiting in faith. Just like what Abraham experienced in the Old Testament. God told Abraham when he was 75 years old Will have a son of his own. But when Abraham’s first son was born, 25 years passed. In the long waiting days, Abraham did not lose faith in waiting. In 25 years of patient waiting, let him nurture faith The power to wait. And finally had his own son. He also became the father of faith
