Turn: a closed garden, a closed well and a closed spring (Bible)
Christ wants us to be single-minded and pure to him, just like the woman in the Book of Songs: "My sister!" " My bride! It is a closed garden, a closed well and a closed spring. "(Song 4 12)
But we are often like prodigals, dissolute at will, open our hearts to the world, and sometimes God disciplines us through illness; Disease is like a wall, which surrounds us and prevents our activities in the world. Your status is transferred to others because you are sick; Your name is forgotten because of illness, and your strength is deprived of all light because of illness; Your beauty disappears because of your illness; Your relatives and friends came to see you when you were ill just now. You've been ill for a long time, people forget you, and you think it's all over.
Don't lose heart at this moment. God's grace begins with you. God lost you. He will appear in front of you, wipe away your tears and comfort your broken heart. At this time, the world abandoned you and you lost it. You have a simple heart for God, and you grow rapidly in Christ. Although your body is depressed by illness, your mind is not bound by it.
When your mind is strong and your body is healthy, you should see that you stand higher than all your companions. You are like a backward nation, you went to an advanced country to study, and before you know it, you became different from the public.
At this time, you should praise the wonderful work of God, see the special favor you have received, and know that everything works together to benefit you. You should realize that God's thoughts are different from yours. God's way, your way, how the sky is higher than the earth, how his way is higher than you, and how his thoughts are higher than you. Really, you have become a locked garden, a closed well and a closed spring.
