標  題:回到你的失敗處

經  節:西門說:「夫子,我們整夜勞力,並沒有打著甚麼。但依從你的話,我就下網。」(路加福音五章5節)

沒有人像耶穌一樣,知道怎樣在你失敗的時刻幫助你!祂不會忽略你的缺點,或是僅僅鼓勵你下一回做好一點。在你失敗的當中,祂仍會賜下勝利。

彼得整夜捕魚卻一無所獲。他不是只捕撈到一些魚,而是連一條魚也沒捕到,雖然他是個熟練的漁夫。耶穌可以說:「彼得,別擔心你的空網!反正,你很快就要換個行業。」耶穌反而要他把船開到水深之處,撒網捕魚。彼得是何等地謙卑!這裡有個木匠告訴這個坦率的漁夫如何捕魚呢!

當你失敗時,耶穌通常要你完全專注於祂。祂有時要把你帶到失敗之處,好能夠在你的生命中創建美善的特質。你可能以為祂一定不要你再繼續下去,因為你是如此慘敗。你的問題也許就在靠自己的力量,而不是靠主的力量。你的失敗之處也許是人際關係,祂會幫助你由錯誤中體驗到祂的指引,使你的人際關係大大不同。當你倚靠神作工時,可能發現成功就在你的掌握之中。如果最近遭遇失敗,你可能正處於得到神深奧啟示的邊緣!


Returning to Your Failure

But Simon answered and said to Him, "Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net." (Luke 5:5)

No one knows how to help you in your times of failure as Jesus does! He will not overlook your shortcoming or simply encourage you to do better the next time. He will give you victory in the midst of your failure.

Peter had fished all night without success. His was not just a meager catch; he had caught nothing, even though he was a skilled fisherman. Jesus could have said, “Peter, don’t worry about your empty net. You’ll soon be in a different business anyway.” Instead, Jesus told him to launch out into the deep and to cast out his nets for a catch. How humbling it must have been for Peter! Here was a carpenter telling this outspoken fisherman how to fish!

Jesus often gets your undivided attention when you fail. He sometimes takes you back to your place of defeat in order to build something good into your life. You may assume He must not want you to continue because you failed so miserably in your attempt. Perhaps your problem was that you relied on your own strength instead of the Master’s. Maybe you failed in a relationship. Jesus will not allow you to abandon it; He will help you learn from your failure and experience the difference He can make when He guides your relationships. When you try in God’s strength you may discover that success is indeed within your grasp. If you have recently experienced failure, you may be on the brink of receiving a profound revelation from God!
