站在人生的岔路口 The Fork in the Road
佛罗伦萨·斯高伏尔·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.
我们每天都要面临不同的选择。“是该这样，还是该那样？我是要走还是留？”许多人都很茫然。于是他们跑去让别人替他们拿主意，然而又为听了他人的意见而后悔。
当然，也会有人为自己的前途进行考虑分析。他们就像经营杂货店一样经营着自己的未来。当有一天他们达到了自己的目标，往往会惊叹不已。
