主,讓我舉目, 不再注視我自己, 以及那些微不足道的損失, 讓我看見那仍有待彰顯的榮耀。 教導我體會: 若非先嘗軟弱,我就不會變剛強, 若非受苦,我就不能得榮耀, 若非失去,我就不能有領受。 ──埃利奧特(Elizabeth Elliot),A Lamp for My Feet, 24
Away from Myself
Lord, lift up my eyes, away from myself and my small losses, up to that glory yet to be revealed. Teach me that it is only out of weakness that I am made strong, only as we suffer that I may reign, only as we lose that I may gain. -Elizabeth Elliot, A Lamp for My Feet, 24.
