2肆 “有时我们想到自己的境况,也许会失望,觉得自己什么都没有。日光之下的一切,甚至属灵范围里的一切,对我们似乎都是虚空的虚空。我们也许觉得没有什么是真实的,甚至召会生活也是如此。当我们这样觉得的时候,我们该怎么办?我们该转向三一神。祂是我们真实的祝福,是我们的分。有祂作福分,是何等的祝福!有祂的面,祂的同在,并且天天享受祂作恩典,是何等的祝福!我们越受苦,就越享受祂作恩典。有祂的脸向我们微笑,向我们保证,向我们确认,这是何等的祝福!在祂里面、借着祂并同着祂有平安,又是何等的祝福!这是三一神来作我们的福分。哦,愿基督的恩,神的爱,圣灵的交通,与你们众人同在!”—民数记生命读经,九二页。
2Ⅳ "Sometimes when we consider our situation, we may be disappointed and feel that we do not have anything. It may seem to us that everything under the sun and even everything in the spiritual field is vanity of vanities. We may feel that nothing is real, not even in the church life. What should we do when we feel this way? We should turn to the Triune God. He is our real blessing and portion. What a blessing it is to have Him as the blessing! What a blessing it is to have His face, His presence, and to enjoy Him daily as grace! The more we suffer, the more we enjoy Him as grace. What a blessing it is to have His countenance smiling upon us, assuring us, and confirming us! And what a blessing it is to have peace in Him, by Him, and with Him! This is the Triune God as our blessing. Oh, may the grace of Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all!" (Life-study of Numbers, p. 83).
