跟主腳蹤行

經文: ��「若有人服事我，就當跟從我；我在哪裡，服事我的人也要在那裡；若有人服事我，我父必尊重他。」（約翰福音十二︰26）�'`�Z�

最深的服事就是效法耶穌。若是基督的僕人，就得跟隨祂的腳蹤，學習像耶穌，榮耀主名，讓我們每天都記得這件事。�

若你要效法耶穌，需要祂做你的師傅；若你要像祂，就需祂與你同在。在地上，我們若努力追隨效法主，到那日，祂就要帶領我們到天上與祂同住。耶穌經過十字架的苦楚後，復活升天，坐在父上帝的右邊；而我們在地上若謙卑地與上帝同行，經過至暫至輕的苦楚，將來也要與耶穌同在榮耀裡。耶穌一生佳美的腳蹤，就是我們的榜樣。來吧，信徒們，振作你的精神，抬起你發酸的腿，踏著主留下來血跡斑斑的足跡，努力往前行。�

別忘了主必尊重那服事耶穌的人，主若看到我對耶穌忠心，祂必為了祂兒子的緣故悅納我，尊重我。此乃無比的光榮；得到世上君王恩寵的光彩，與此榮耀相比，也要黯然失色，因為這榮耀是從天父那兒來的。所以，我的靈啊，更貼近主的心吧，一生跟定主的腳蹤行！�


Following Leads to Honor

Scripture: "If any man serve Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there shall also My servant be: if any man serve Me, him will My Father honor" (John 12:26).

The highest service is imitation. If I would be Christ's servant I must be His follower. To do as Jesus did is the surest way of bringing honor to His name. Let me mind this every day.

If I imitate Jesus I shall have His company: if I am like Him I shall be with Him. In due time He will take me up to dwell with Him above, if, meanwhile, I have striven to follow Him here below. After His suffering our LORD came to His throne, and even so, after we have suffered a while with Him here below, we also shall arrive in glory. The issue of our LORD's life shall be the issue of ours: if we are with Him in His humiliation we shall be with Him in His glory. Come, my soul, pluck up courage and put down thy feet in the blood-marked footprints which thy LORD has left thee.

Let me not fail to note that the Father will honor those who follow His Son. If He sees me true to Jesus, He will put marks of favor and honor upon me for His Son's sake. No honor can be like this. Princes and emperors bestow the mere shadows of honor; the substance of glory comes from the Father. Wherefore, my soul, cling thou to thy LORD Jesus more closely than ever.
