“Let Us Like a Weaned Child Calm and Quieten Ourselves with Eternal Hope in Christ讓我們帶著在基督里永恆的盼望，像斷過奶的孩子內心有著平靜安穩“（Psalm 詩篇131）
My heart is not proud, Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me. But I have calmed and quietened myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content. Israel, put your hope in the Lord both now and for evermore.
耶和華啊！我的心不驕傲，我的眼不自高；重大和超過我能力的事，我都不敢作。我的心平靜安穩，像斷過奶的孩子躺在他母親的懷中，我的心在我裡面真像斷過奶的孩子。以色列啊！你要仰望耶和華，從現在直到永遠。
David came before God in conscious humility learning to reject pride, arrogance (pride looking down on other people) and selfish ambition. He determined to find satisfaction and serenity of soul, content with God and His works like a weaned child who embraces his mother out of a desire for love, closeness, and companionship, not of food and immediate satisfaction. When God allows things or circumstances in our life that wean us from things (even like self-sufficiency, self-will and self-seeking) we have relied on, we should never despise it. The decision to place one’s hope in God should be now and go forth and forever, never ending.
大衛在有意識的謙卑裡來到神面前，學習去拒絕驕傲、自負（看低別人的驕傲）和自私的野心。像一個斷過奶的孩子，出自對愛、親密和陪伴，而不是進食和即時之滿足的渴求去擁抱他的母親，大衛決心去找著靈魂的滿足和寧靜，滿足於神和祂的行事作為。當神在我們的人生里容許事物或境況，使我們從自己已依賴的東西（什至如自以為足夠、任性和只顧自己）斷離時，我們理應永不輕視它。要把一個人的盼望擺放在神裡的決定，理應是現在並前進至永遠，永不終止。
Prayer: Almighty Lord, thank you for reminding us that when we feel constantly driven to do and achieve more in our relationship with you, we should learn some of what David here learned. In pride, we could even demand to know aspects of your will or mind which are secret things that belong to you. May we learn what Lord Jesus taught us to accept a lower place and wait patiently for God to lift us up in His wisdom and timing knowing those things which are revealed belong to us forever that we may obey all your words. Amen.
禱告: 全能的主啊！感謝你提醒我們，當我們在與你的關係上，感到不斷地被驅使去操作和達成更多時，我們理應學習大衛在這裡所學習的某些功課。在驕傲裡，我們可以什至索求要知道你旨意或意念方面的事（那屬於你隠密的事）。願我們學習主耶穌所教導我們的，要接受卑微的位份，忍耐地等後神在祂的智慧和時間裡，把我們高升，曉得那些給了我們啟示，永遠屬於我們的東西，好使我們會聽從你一切的話語。阿們。
