12月2日── 逐漸失去力量？ Losing the strength gradually
 
金句：「你們要靠著主，倚賴他的大能大力，作剛強的人。」（以弗所書6章10節）

A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.  (Ephesians 6:10)

　　 一雙雙小眼睛越過我的肩膀，緊盯著汽油表。奔馳在州際高速公路上，燃料即將用盡，這可不是件好玩的事。一路上曾經有不少地方可以停下來把油箱加滿，如果我們的油真用盡了，就只能怪我自己愚蠢，所以在下一個出口，趕緊衝進加油站。

Pairs of small eyes crossing my shoulder, fix on the gasoline gauge. Running quickly on the state highway, the fuel soon exhausting, this certainly not to be fun. On road where once having many places to be allowed to stop adds fully the fuel tank, if our gas has really exhausted, only could blame my stupid, therefore in the next exit, rushes to the gas station.
 
　　把油箱加滿並不能解決我們所有的問題。我們變得易怒且失去對彼此的耐心。沒多久，我們就發現我們的生命已不在聖靈的掌管下，在彼此道歉以及靜靜地向上帝作了順服的禱告之後，我們內心又增添了屬靈的力量，這種情形就好像必須停下來為心靈及意志加滿新的燃料一樣。

Adding fully the fuel tank certainly cannot solve our all problems. We become irritable and also lose patience to others. Not too long, we are finding our life already not under Holy Spirit's governing, After apologizing to each other and calmly making the prayer to God for obedience, our innermost feelings have increased the strength, this kind of situation looks like stopping for adding new fuel to the mind and will.
 
　　和汽車油箱將盡的經驗不同，我們身為基督徒，千萬不能耗盡力量。聖靈雖在我們心中，然而我們仍可能叫聖靈擔憂，並且阻絕上帝的力量在我們身上彰顯（以弗所書4章30節）。

 The experience will be different with the running out of automobile fuel tank, As be a Christian, surely not
completely consume your strength. Although Holy Spirit is in our heart, however we still possibly have the Holy Spirit worried, and separate God's strength from revealing on our body. (Ephesians 4:30)

　　當你走在人生的道上，是否曾面臨能源的危機？千萬不要逞強而不向聖靈求助。記住，上帝是心靈力量永不枯竭的源頭。他的靈充滿我飢渴的靈魂；上帝的大能掌管我的生命； 我心深處的祈禱，我最終的目標，都是更像我主耶穌。

When you walk on the life road, whether once faced the crisis of energy? Surely do not show off power but  seek help from the Holy Spirit. Remembers, God is the strength of mind whose source will never drain off. His spirit fills my thirsty soul; God's great power holds my life; My deep heart pray, my final goal, all that are more like Lord Jesus Christ.

那等候耶和華的，必重新得力。以賽亞書40章31節

But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. (Isaiah 40:31)
