出去的时候,还不知往哪里去。(来11:8)
你曾否这样出去?若有,那么当有人问你在干什么时,你简直没有合逻辑的话可以回答。作神的工其中一个难题就是--[你期望做些什么?]你根本不知道该做什么,你唯一知道的,是神知道祂在做什么。
要经常审查自己对神的态度,看看是否竭尽所能,完全信靠神。这种态度使你不住的稀奇,因你不知道神下一步会怎样做。每天清晨醒来,就是新的[出去],建立对神的靠赖。[不要为生活谋算……也不要为身体担忧。]你[出去]之前,这些东西都不要再理会了。
你是否不住的在追问神,祂将做些什么,神决不会告诉你。神不会告诉你祂怎样行事,祂只会向你显明他是谁。你相信神是行神迹的神吗?你肯不肯顺命出去,对祂所作的一切,一点也不诧异?
假若神真是你亲近他时所认识的神,忧虑是何等不当哩!让我们的生命不断地靠着神[出去],那么生命会奇妙得难以形容,且叫耶稣心满意足。你一定要好好学习从信念、教条、经验中出来,直至你与神之间,已全无隔膜。

Will You Go Out Without Knowing?
He went out, not knowing where he was going. —Hebrews 11:8
Have you ever “gone out” in this way? If so, there is no logical answer possible when anyone asks you what you are doing. One of the most difficult questions to answer in Christian work is, “What do you expect to do?” You don’t know what you are going to do. The only thing you know is that God knows what He is doing. Continually examine your attitude toward God to see if you are willing to “go out” in every area of your life, trusting in God entirely. It is this attitude that keeps you in constant wonder, because you don’t know what God is going to do next. Each morning as you wake, there is a new opportunity to “go out,” building your confidence in God. “…do not worry about your life…nor about the body…” (Luke 12:22). In other words, don’t worry about the things that concerned you before you did “go out.”
Have you been asking God what He is going to do? He will never tell you. God does not tell you what He is going to do— He reveals to you who He is. Do you believe in a miracle-working God, and will you “go out” in complete surrender to Him until you are not surprised one iota by anything He does?
Believe God is always the God you know Him to be when you are nearest to Him. Then think how unnecessary and disrespectful worry is! Let the attitude of your life be a continual willingness to “go out” in dependence upon God, and your life will have a sacred and inexpressible charm about it that is very satisfying to Jesus. You must learn to “go out” through your convictions, creeds, or experiences until you come to the point in your faith where there is nothing between yourself and God.
