April 4

　　Where are you on the ladder of life? Have you reached rock-bottom and are on the upward climb? Have you been willing to give up everything in your life to put Me first, not because you are afraid, but because of your deep love for Me and your longing to do My will and walk in My ways? Can you say, ‘Let Thy will be done,’ and mean it,and be willing to do whatever I ask you to do, no matter how strange or foolish it may appear to be in the eyes of others? It takes courage and such deep inner knowing and certainty that nothing will be able to throw you off balance. Only those souls who are strong will be able to follow this spiritual path. It is not for those souls who choose to go their own way and refuse to listen to My word. There are no short-cuts in this spiritual life. You have to seek and find your own salvation.

　　我在人生之梯的哪個階段呢？我已經到達最底層，正在向上攀爬嗎？我一直都願意放棄生活中的一切，將上天放在第一位嗎，不是因為我很害怕，而是因為我對上天的深愛，以及我對踐行上天的意願、行在上天的道上的渴望。我能夠說，「讓我去完成吧」並真是如此打算，並且無論上天讓我去做什麼我都願意，無論它可能在別人眼中多麼的奇怪與愚蠢？

　　它需要勇氣和非常深入的內在意識，以及對於沒有任何事可以讓我失去平衡的確信。只有那些堅強的靈魂能夠追隨這條精神之路。它不是為了那些選擇自己的道路並拒絕聽上天的言語的靈魂而有的。在這靈性生活中是沒有捷徑的。我需要去尋找且覓得我自己的救贖。
