得享安息
你曾有过想要飞的愿望吗？你是否曾希望自己可以腾空而起，飞向远方，享受一些超越尘世的平静和安宁?
有时在生活中，我们所面临的麻烦会导致内心深处的波澜起伏。我们可能会纠结于某些事情：心理健康、身体残障或疾病、僵持的关系、艰难的事业、深深的失望或失落、经济贫困或其他一些事情。有很多事情会让我们感觉束手无策。
当大卫写这篇诗篇时，他因自己的处境而心烦意乱，被朋友出卖了，感到失望和困顿。他迫切地想要找到一条出路，梦想着自己能像鸽子一样，远走高飞，逃离所有的烦恼。
但当他在沮丧中挣扎时，他渐渐明白，虽然他没有翅膀可以飞走，但他可以发出声音向神呼求。从生活的重担中解脱出来的方法不是逃避，而是把它们交给神：“把你的重担卸给耶和华，他必抚养你。”
作为对这篇诗篇的呼应，耶稣说：“凡劳苦担重担的人可以到我这里来，我就使你们得安息……你们若如此学我的样式；那么你们心里就必得享安息”（太 11:28-29）。
主啊，神啊，感谢你，当我们被麻烦困住，宁愿逃避的时候，是你给了我们祷告的翅膀，并应许扶持我们。求你帮助我们学会天天把重担卸给你。阿们。
诗篇 55:1-8, 20-23
1神啊，求你留心听我的祷告，不要隐藏不听我的恳求。
2求你侧耳听我，应允我。我哀叹不安，发声唉哼，
3都因仇敌的声音，恶人的欺压。因为他们将罪孽加在我身上，发怒气逼迫我。
4我心在我里面甚是疼痛，死的惊惶临到我身。
5恐惧战兢归到我身，惊恐漫过了我。
6我说：“但愿我有翅膀像鸽子，我就飞去，得享安息。
7我必远游，宿在旷野。（细拉）
8我必速速逃到避所，脱离狂风暴雨。”
20他背了约，伸手攻击与他和好的人。
21他的口如奶油光滑，他的心却怀着争战；他的话比油柔和，其实是拔出来的刀。
22你要把你的重担卸给耶和华，他必抚养你，他永不叫义人动摇。
23神啊，你必使恶人下入灭亡的坑，流人血行诡诈的人必活不到半世，但我要倚靠你。
To Be At Rest
"I said, 'Oh, that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.'" - Psalm 55:6
Have you ever had the desire to fly? Do you ever wish you could just leap up and fly away for some peace and quiet?
Sometimes in life, the troubles we face can cause deep inner turmoil. We may struggle with our mental health, a physical disability or disease, a relationship that feels stuck, a difficult career, a deep disappointment or loss, a cycle of poverty, or something else. Many different things can make us feel trapped.
When David wrote this psalm, he was feeling disillusioned and stuck. He was distraught by the situation he was in, and he felt betrayed by a friend. He desperately wanted a way out and dreamed of being like a dove so he could fly far away from all his troubles.
But as he wrestled with his discouragement, he grew to understand that although he did not have wings to fly away, he did have a voice to call upon God. The solution to being released from life's burdens isn't to escape but to give them up to the Lord: "Cast your cares on the Lord, and he will sustain you."
Echoing the assurance of this psalm, Jesus says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. . . . Learn from me . . . and you will find rest for your souls" (Matthew 11:28-29).
Lord and God, thank you that even when we are surrounded by troubles that we would rather escape, you give us the wings of prayer and you promise to sustain us. Help us to cast our burdens on you. Amen.
