Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee.” ... {CC 237.3}[3]

耶利米在青年时期以及工作的晚年所得的经验,教训他“人的道路不由自己,行路的人也不能定自己的脚步。”他也学会祷告说:“耶和华啊,求祢从宽惩治我,不要在祢的怒中惩治我,恐怕使我归于无有”(耶10:23-24)。{CC 237.6}[6]
奋斗与勇敢-第232章
The experiences through which Jeremiah passed in the days of his youth and also in the later years of his ministry, taught him the lesson that “the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.” He learned to pray, “O Lord, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing” (Jeremiah 10:23, 24). {CC 237.6}[6]

The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.” 28 {CC 237.7}[7]
