荒漠甘泉 Streams in the Desert

上帝對你的調養

經文: 「你當走的路甚遠。」（王上十九7）

上帝怎樣對待祂疲乏的僕人？給他好東西喫，給他甜蜜睡眠。以利亞曾行了奇妙的神蹟，曾奔在亞哈的車子前頭，所以他的身體非常疲憊；疲憊的反應就是受壓。在這裡我們看見：身體的保重是必需的。今天許多上帝的僕人所缺乏的都是睡眠和調養。有許多屬靈的偉人都像以利亞一般－－在羅騰樹下求死！啊，聽哪，這聲調何等甘甜：「你當走的路甚遠，起來喫罷！」

God's Refreshment

Scripture: "The journey is too great for thee" (1 King 19:7).

And what did God do with His tired servant? Gave him something good to eat, and put him to sleep. Elijah had done splendid work, and had run alongside of the chariot in his excitement, and it had been too much for his physical strength, and the reaction had come on, and he was depressed. The physical needed to be cared for. What many people want is sleep, and the physical ailment attended to. There are grand men and women who get where Elijah was--under the juniper tree! and it comes very soothingly to such to hear the words of the Master: "The journey is too great for thee, and I am going to refresh you." Let us not confound physical weariness with spiritual weakness.
