因为主曾说：“我总不撇下你，也不丢弃你。”（来十三5）
我思想的路向如何？是转向神的话，还是转向自己的恐惧？我有没有学习不去讲述神说什么，而是先听他说些什么，然后才开口？“主曾说：‘我总不撇下你，也不丢弃你。’所以我们可以放胆说：‘主是帮助我的，我必不惧怕，人能把我怎么样呢？’”
“我总不失信。”（中文圣经作“我总不撇下你”）－－不管我是罪污、自私、固执、背逆，神总不撇下我。我真有让神对我说：“我总不失信”？若我曾听过神如此说，让我如今听他再说吧。
“我总不丢弃你。”有时并非是困难叫我觉得神丢弃我，而是枯燥乏味的生活。没有困难的高山可以攀登，也没有异象赐下，更没有什么兴奋美丽的东西，只是日复一日的平凡生活－－在这景况下，我有听见神如此说呢？
在我们的意念中，总以为神会行奇事，装备我们将来要成就伟大的工作。可是，我们若在神的恩中生活，便会发现神就在此时此地荣耀他自己。我们若有“神如此说”作后盾，就有最奇异莫名的能力临到，使我们在平凡的生活中欢呼歌唱。
祈祷◆噢，主啊，求你荣耀的复活，进入我们的生命、路程和行动中。求你今天的医治、盼望、恩典和美善，强而有力地临到。
June 4 The Never-Failing God
“For He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Hebrews 13:5
What line does my thought take? Does it turn to what God says or to what I fear? Am I learning to say not what God says, but to say something after I have heard what He says? “He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.”
“I will in no wise fail thee” – not for all my sin and selfishness and stubbornness and waywardness. Have I really let God say to me that He will never fail me? If I have listened to this say-so of God's, then let me listen again.
“Neither will I in any wise forsake thee.” Sometimes it is not difficulty that makes me think God will forsake me, but drudgery. There is no Hill Difficulty to climb, no vision given, nothing wonderful or beautiful, just the commonplace day in and day out – can I hear God's say-so in these things?
We have the idea that God is going to do some exceptional thing, that He is preparing and fitting us for some extraordinary thing by and bye, but as we go on in grace we find that God is glorifying Himself here and now, in the present minute. If we have God's say-so behind us, the most amazing strength comes, and we learn to sing in the ordinary days and ways.
