“在一切净光的高处必有他们的牧场。”（赛49：9直译）
小玩意儿很容易到手，但是贵重的东西却须要花费巨大的代价。成功的获得，往往要用血去换来的。假若你准备付出足够的鲜血，你就有希望达到胜利的顶点，若要登上神圣的高峰，也是如此。真正的英雄故事，都是描写流血牺牲的故事。生命和人格的最高价值，不会随风吹来。伟大的灵魂，必又重大的悲哀。
我们若被带到逼使我们锻炼信心的环境中，即能增高认识神的大能，因此，当我们遭遇困难的时候，愿我们感谢神和我们患难相共，紧紧地依靠他。
You who bring good tidings to Zion, go up on a high mountain (Isa. 40:9).
Toys and trinkets are easily won, but the greatest things are greatly bought. The top-most place of power is always bought with blood. You may have the pinnacles if you have enough blood to pay. That is the conquest condition of the holy heights everywhere. The story of real heroisms is the story of sacrificial blood. The chiefest values in life and character are not blown across our way by vagrant winds. Great souls have great sorrows.
Great truths are dearly bought, the common truths,
Such as men give and take front day to day,
Come in the common walk of easy life,
Blown by the careless wind across our way.
Great truths are greatly won, not found by chance,
Nor wafted on the breath of summer dream;
But grasped in the great struggle of the soul,
Hard buffeting with adverse wind and stream.
But in the day of conflict, fear and grief,
When the strong hand of God, put forth in might,
Plows up the subsoil of the stagnant heart,
And brings the imprisoned truth seed to the light.
Wrung from the troubled spirit, in hard hours
Of weakness, solitude, perchance of pain,
Truth springs like harvest from the well-plowed field,
And the soul feels it has not wept in vain.
The capacity for knowing God enlarges as we are brought by Him into circumstances which oblige us to exercise faith; so, when difficulties beset our path let us thank God that He is taking trouble with us, and lean hard upon Him.
