經文: 「我父啊！倘若可行，求祢叫這杯離開我；然而不要照我的意思，只要照祢的意思。」— [聖經·馬太福音 26章39b節]
即使在天國的榮耀裡，耶穌的被釘十字架，同樣是神聖至極大愛的表現；也就是說祂所做的犧牲，給人最大的好處，就是聖靈可以動工在我們心中，讓我們可與耶穌相契合，過一個心中有主的內在生活。
我們必須深切地明白一項真理，就是上帝的愛子耶穌基督，若沒有先將自己交付死地，祂就無法升天得榮耀。若蒙聖靈光照，得以明白這真理的啟示，將有助於我們奔走這條屬靈天路，知道我們若不降服耶穌，每天背起自己的十字架，向罪死、向世界死，我們就無法有份於耶穌復活的新生命，也不能與祂保有不間斷的溝通與聯繫。
惟有從主耶穌那兒，我們才能明白何謂與耶穌同受苦：有份於祂的死且與祂聯合。那夜祂在客西馬尼園，想到要親嚐罪權勢下的咒詛：被上帝離棄，釘死十字架。不禁憂傷痛苦，汗如血滴流下，祂流淚禱告，求上帝將這苦杯挪去，但上帝掩面不願看祂，也沒有絲毫亮光透過這無盡的黑暗，耶穌得不著上帝任何的回應，於是明白上帝要祂嚐此苦杯，祂就謙卑伏服在上帝面前說：「願祢的意旨成全。」(馬太福音 26章42節)。
喔！親愛的弟兄姐妹們，要效法主的榜樣，向上帝說：「不要照我的意思，只要照祢的旨意成就。」上帝會使我們心中有力量，在各樣事上幫助我們捨棄所有，為要得著主的歡心，因為我們已定意與耶穌同釘十字架。
「照主的旨意成就！」願這句話成為我們的座右銘，成為我們生活的指標。靠著耶穌的力量及聖靈的幫助，我們可以天天學習在各樣的大事、小事上，先求問祂的旨意，並照祂的意思去做；也讓這樣的思想信念，成為我們服膺的準則，相信這將使我們生活充滿喜樂與能力。

『 THY Will Be Done 』
Scripture: “0 my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass away from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou wilt.” — [Matthew 26:39b]
The death of Christ on the cross is the highest and the holiest that can be known of Him even in the glory of heaven. And the highest and the holiest that the Holy Spirit can work in us, is to take us up and to keep us in the fellowship of the cross of Christ. We need to enter deeply into the truth that Christ the beloved Son of the Father could not return to the glory of heaven until He had first given Himself over unto death. As this great truth opens up to us, it will help us to understand how in our life, and in our fellowship with Christ, it is impossible for us to share His life until we have first in very deed surrendered ourselves every day to die to sin and the world, and so to abide in the unbroken fellowship with our crucified Lord.
And it is from Christ alone that we can learn what it means to have fellowship with His sufferings, and to be made conformable unto His death. When in the agony of Gethsemane He looked forward to what a death on the cross would be, He got such a vision of what it meant to die the accursed death under the power of sin, with God’s countenance so turned from Him that not a single ray of its light could penetrate the darkness, He prayed that the cup might pass from Him. But when no answer came, and He understood that the Father could not allow the cup to pass by, He yielded up His whole will and life in the word : “Thy will be done.” O Christian, in this word of thy Lord in His agony, thou canst enter into fellowship with Him, and in His strength thy heart will be made strong to believe most confidently that God in His omnipotence will enable thee in very deed with Christ to yield up everything, because thou hast in very deed been crucified with Him.
“Thy will be done” ; let this be the deepest and the highest word in thy life. In the power of Christ with Whom thou hast been crucified, and in the power of His Spirit, the definite daily surrender to the ever-blessed will of God will become the joy and the strength of thy life.
