站在人生的岔路口 The Fork in the Road
佛羅倫薩·斯高伏爾·西恩/Florence Scovel Shinn
Every day there is a necessity of choice (a fork in the road). “Shall I do this, or shall I do that? Shall I go, or shall I stay?”Many people do not know what to do. They rush about letting other people make decisions for them, then regret having taken their advice.
There are others who carefully reason things out. They weigh and measure the situation like dealing in groceries, and are surprised when they fail to obtain their goal.
There are still other people who follow the magic path of intuition and find themselves in their Promised Land in the twinkling of an eye.
Intuition is a spiritual faculty high above the reasoning mind, but on the path is all that you desire or require. So choose this day to follow the magic path of intuition.
In most people it is a faculty which has remained dormant. So we say, “Awake though that sleeps. Wake up to your leads and hunches!”
Now it is necessary for you to make a decision, you face a fork in the road. Ask for a definite unmistakable lead, and you will receive it.
So we find we have success through being strong and very courageous in following spiritual law.
A well-known man, who has become a great power in the financial World, said to a friend, “I always follow intuition and I am luck incarnate.”
Inspirations are the most important thing in life. People come to Truth meetings for inspiration. I find the right word will start divine activity operating in their affairs.
In every act prompted by fear lies the germ of its own defeat.
我們每天都要麵臨不同的選擇。“是該這樣，還是該那樣？我是要走還是留？”許多人都很茫然。於是他們跑去讓別人替他們拿主意，然而又為聽了他人的意見而後悔。
當然，也會有人為自己的前途進行考慮分析。他們就像經營雜貨店一樣經營著自己的未來。當有一天他們達到了自己的目標，往往會驚歎不已。
