喜乐 -- 吴老牧师

内在生活短篇
我们绝不会喜乐到像神所要求于我们的那样喜乐,直等到我们悔改了我们的一切忧郁和阴暗。

我以耶和华为乐,这就是真正的钉死老我之道。

喜乐是信心的要素,是一种得胜的表现,胜过了撒但和牠一切的魔军。

出于信心的祷告,乃是一无挂虑且充满喜乐的祷告。

有了信心,你就不能不喜乐而赞美了。

当你闷闷不乐时,你就是闩上门,不让神进来。

『你们要将一切的忧虑卸给神。』──有时候我们必须努力的来达到这个要求;我有时候一连两三天都在说:『我拒绝这些乌烟瘴气,我要有主的喜乐。』

任何有泉源(主自己)在里头的人,不能不喜乐。

世上最快乐的人,乃是背起十字架的人。

没有甚么能够像靠主而得的喜乐,那样使人华美的了。

─吴老牧师

「你们要靠主常常喜乐,我再说,你们要喜乐。」(腓立比书四章四节)

Rejoice

We will never rejoice as God wants us to rejoice until we repent of our dumping and shadows

To delight myself in the Lord is a way of real crucifixion.

Joy is an element of faith. It is a victory over Satan and all his hordes.

The prayer of faith is to be anxious for nothing and to be full of joy.

Faith will compel you to rejoice and praise.

When you are in a dump, you are barring the door for God to come.

"Casting all your care upon Him" -- sometimes we have to labor over it. Sometimes for two or three days I say, "I refuse this fog and I will have the joy of the Lord."

Anyone who has the Fountain within cannot help but rejoice.

The happiest people in the world are the cross- bearers.

Nothing is so beautifying as the joy of the Lord.

- Hans R. Waldvogel

"Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice." Phil.4:4 (A.V.)
