The presence of a compassionate God!
慈悲神的同在！
(Brooks, “A Word in Season to Suffering Saints”)
(布鲁克斯所著《给受苦圣徒的应时之言》)
“His compassions never fail!” Lamentations 3:22
“祂的慈悲永不止息！”耶利米哀歌 3:22
Each believer has the presence of . . .
a God of mercy,
a God of tenderness,
a God of compassion.
每个信徒都有…
慈悲之神的同在，
温柔之神的同在，
怜悯之神的同在。
Mercy is as essential to God — as light is to the sun, or as heat is to the fire. He delights in mercy. Patience, and mildness, and mercy, and compassion, and peace — are the fruits of His heart.
慈悲对神来说，就如光之于太阳，热之于火那样重要。祂喜悦怜悯。忍耐、温和、慈悲、怜悯和平安 — 都是祂心中的果实。
God’s compassions are . . .
fatherly compassions, Psalm 103:13;
motherly compassions, Isaiah 49:15;
brotherly compassions, Hebrews 2:12;
friendly compassions, Canticles 5:1-2.
神的怜悯是…
父亲般的怜悯，诗篇103:13；
母亲般的怜悯，以赛亚书49:15；
兄弟般的怜悯，希伯来书2:12；
朋友般的怜悯，雅歌5:1-2。
Oh, how sweet must the presence of a God of mercy, a God of compassion — be to the saints in a day of trouble! The presence of a compassionate friend in a day of distress is very desirable and comfortable; what then is the presence of a compassionate God!
啊，在患难之日，慈悲之神、怜悯之神的同在对圣徒来说该是何等甘甜！在困苦之日，一位富有同情心的朋友的同在是多么令人向往和安慰；那么，一位满有怜悯的神的同在又该是何等美好！
