自有永有的神
神想要引起你的注意。那个被风浪淹没的你。那个感受到炙热火焰的人。那个身体日渐消瘦的你。那个在抑郁的重压下挣扎的你。
这是你的阿爸父在说话！祂是自有永有的那一位，在历史上一次又一次地证明祂自己。祂是那位自从你在母腹中形成，到来到世上长大，再到现在鹤发鸡皮都一直保守你的神。神一直在这里，祂也将永远在这里。神看见了你的挣扎，接住你的眼泪，感受到你的痛苦，听见了你的祈祷，祂藉着先知以赛亚说，“我必怀抱，我必拯救。”“我是神，再没有能比我的。”
你觉得什么问题对神来说太大了？把问题带到祂面前，看创造天地、自有永有的神怎样接手。神凡事都能做。神能阻止我的癌症，把你的孩子领进救恩，医治你破碎的心，赐给我们出人意外的平安。
有一天，神会使万物更新，到那时，“不再有死亡，也不再有悲哀，哭号，疼痛”（启21:4）。坚持住！
主啊，当生活把我们抛来抛去，请帮助我们紧抓住你。我们知道你——自有永有的神——掌管一切，你必怀搋，也必保抱。
以赛亚书 46:3-5; 9-10
3“雅各家，以色列家一切余剩的，要听我言！你们自从生下，就蒙我保抱；自从出胎，便蒙我怀揣。
4直到你们年老，我仍这样；直到你们发白，我仍怀揣。我已造做，也必保抱；我必怀抱，也必拯救。
5“你们将谁与我相比，与我同等，可以与我比较，使我们相同呢？
9你们要追念上古的事，因为我是神，并无别神。我是神，再没有能比我的。
10我从起初指明末后的事，从古时言明未成的事，说：‘我的筹算必立定，凡我所喜悦的，我必成就。’
The Great I AM
"I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you. . . . " — Isaiah 46:4
God wants to get your attention. You, who are overwhelmed by the waves. You, who are feeling the heat of fire. You, whose body is wasting away. You, who are struggling under the weight of depression.
This is your Father speaking! This is the great I AM, who has proven himself again and again throughout history. This is the one who has been protecting you since you were swimming in the womb, growing up in the world, and even now as your hair turns gray and your skin wrinkles. God has always been here, and he always will be.
God sees your struggles, catches your tears, feels your pain, hears your prayers, and says, through the prophet Isaiah, “I will sustain you and I will rescue you,” and “I am God, and there is none like me.”
What is the problem that you think is too big for God? Place it before him and watch the great I AM, the maker of heaven and earth, take it over. God can do anything. God can stop my cancer, lead your child to salvation, heal your broken heart, and give us the peace that is beyond understanding.
One day, God will make all things new, and “there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain” (Revelation 21:4). Keep holding on!
Lord, help us to hold on to you when life tosses us to and fro. We know that you—the great I AM—are in charge and will sustain us and carry us through. Amen.
