使我认识祂-第324章
“在大户人家,不但有金器银器,也有木器瓦器,有作为贵重的,有作为卑贱的。人若自洁,脱离卑贱的事,就必作贵重的器皿,成为圣洁,合乎主用,预备行各样的善事”(提后2:20,21)。{TMK329.1}[1]
使我认识祂-第324章
But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.2 Timothy 2:20, 21.{TMK 329.1}[1]

主给了每一个人各自的工作。祂依照每一个人的能力分派了工作。祂的委托也与各人的能力相当。……{TMK329.2}[2]
使我认识祂-第324章
The Master has given to every man his work. He has given to every man according to his ability, and his trust is in proportion to his capacity....{TMK 329.2}[2]
使我认识祂-第324章
任何人都不要怨叹自己没有更大的才干可为主所用。……不拘别人做什么,你都要以坚忍的心尽自己所能。“我们各人必要将自己的事,在上帝面前说明”(罗14:12)。不要在心里或口里说:“但愿我从事更重要的工作!但愿我能在这个位置或那个位置上!”要在你所在之处尽自己的责任。要在最能为上帝发挥效益的地方,对托付给你的才干作最好的投资。……不可嫉妒别人的天赋,因为这不会增加你的才干,从事良好或伟大的工作。要在温柔上、在谦卑上、在信靠之心上运用自己的天赋,并要等到那算账的日子,这样,你就没有理由忧愁或羞愧了。……{TMK329.3}[3]
使我认识祂-第324章
Let none mourn that they have not larger talents to use for the Master.... Go to work with steady patience and do your very best, irrespective of what others are doing. “Every one of us shall give account of himself to God” (Romans 14:12). Let not your thought or your words be, “O that I had a larger work! O that I were in this or that position!” Do your duty where you are. Make the best investments possible with your entrusted gift in the very place where your work will count the most before God.... Be not envious of the talents of others, for that will not increase your ability to do a good or a great work. Use your gift in meekness, in humility, in trusting faith, and wait till the day of reckoning, and you will have no cause for grief or shame....{TMK 329.3}[3]
使我认识祂-第324章
今日的本分尚未忠心地完成,就不要渴求从事某项伟大的事工。要负起日常的责任,要将卑微的天赋交给兑换银子的人,严肃地意识到自己有责任正确使用上帝所赐给你的一切能力和思想。上帝向最卑微的人所要求的并不比最高贵的人少。每一个人都必须按照基督恩赐的大小,欢欣踊跃地从事所指定的工作。……上帝的教会是由不同才干的人组成的。我们犹如不同大小的器皿放在主的家里;不要指望小器皿能装大器皿的容量。所要求的是器皿要盛满,按自己的容量来装。你如果忠心地履行自己的义务,就是一个蒙悦纳的仆人,一件贵重的器皿。(《评论与通讯》1888年5月1日){TMK329.4}[4]
使我认识祂-第324章
Do not aspire to do some great service when the duty of today has not been done with fidelity. Take up the commonplace care, trade on the humble talent with a solemn sense of your responsibility for the right use of every power, every thought, that God has given you. God asks no less of the lowliest than of the most exalted; each must do his appointed work with cheerful alacrity, according to the measure of the gift of Christ.... The church of God is made up of persons of different abilities. Like vessels of various dimensions, we are placed in the house of the Lord; but it is not expected that the smaller vessels will contain all that the larger ones will hold. All that is required is that the vessel shall be full and hold according to its ability. If you perform faithfully the duties in your path you will be an acceptable servant, an honored vessel.24{TMK 329.4}[4]
