0510 我必带来你需要的改变
你曾对我说：“拿走我的生命，使我成为你要我所是的人。” 要听我的话，它们就必是你里面的生命和力量。你生命中最大的喜乐，将在于认识我——认识我是何等恩慈、何等温柔地待我的孩子，并且对那些跌倒的人满有怜悯与赦免。正是在认识我的过程中，你才开始真正认识你是谁。
保持这种全心献上的姿态，我就要使你成为我爱之磨利、纯净的器皿。把你聆听的心带到我面前，我就将你所渴望的生命与改变带给你；这个改变的季节，将把你从消极推动到热情。我的爱之火，要激励你作出时间与财物上的牺牲，是你前所未有的。我正在你心中运行，使你降服于我，去我差遣你去的地方，作我呼召你去作的事。即使付上极大的个人代价，你也要来跟随我，你必将看见我是那位伟大的守约者。
让我对生命的热情被恢复，在每一次你带给我的突破中品尝喜乐。让我亲近你，并赐给我一个乐意顺从你的灵。——诗篇 51:12
0510 I will bring the change you need.
You have said to me, “Take my life and make me into the person you want me to be.” Listen to my words, and they will be life and power inside of you. The greatest joy of your life will be in knowing me—in knowing that I am kind and tender-hearted to my children, and full of compassion and forgiveness toward those who fall. It is in knowing me that you come to know exactly who you are.
Maintain this posture of wholehearted devotion, and I will make you a sharpened, pure instrument of my love. Bring me your listening heart, and I will bring you the life and change you long for. This season of change will move you from passivity into passion. The fire of my love will motivate you to make sacrifices of time and treasure such as you have never entered into before. I am moving upon your heart to yield to me, to go where I send you, and to do what I called you to do. Follow me even at great personal cost, and you will see me as the great Promise Keeper.
Let my passion for life be restored, tasting joy in every breakthrough you bring to me. Hold me close to you with a willing spirit that obeys whatever you say. –PSALM 51:12
