Counseling is a journey that we walk alongside someone – The Lord leads us to meet them in the wilderness of their life, and we listen to their heart’s cry of sadness and/or trouble; we ask them questions and listen to them intently and patiently with compassion, drawing out the human heart that is like deep waters; we walk this journey of hardship with them, we communicate openly and honestly, and we pray together, crying out to God seeking His mercy and help…

辅导就是一段与对方同行的旅程——在她们徘徊迷失于生命旷野之地时，神让我们与她们相遇，并倾听她们发自内心的悲伤哭喊或烦恼倾诉；我们满怀同情地耐心询问与聆听，汲引如深水般的人心；我们与她们同踏这段艰难的旅程，开诚布公地沟通，并同她们祷告，呼求神的怜悯与帮助……

It’s like walking them through a devotional, only that the words are not there right in front of you, but the Holy Spirit is with you, the Lord’s presence and Word with you, walking with you through the deep valley of life, and leading you to slowly raise your heads, fixing your eyes on Jesus Christ – our Lord and King who sits at the right hand of the Father, interceding for you.

这就好比陪伴她们走过一段虔诚的崇拜之旅，不同之处在于崇拜之词并不在我们眼前，但是圣灵却与我们同在，神与我们同在，祂的话语也与我们同在，陪伴和指引我们走过生命的深谷，带领我们能够慢慢地抬起头来，定睛在耶稣基督身上——我们的救主与君王，祂就坐在父的右边，为我们向神祈祷。

Then, together, we sing,

于是，我们共同歌唱：

My soul yearns, even faints,

for the courts of the LORD;

my heart and my flesh cry out

for the living God.

“我深愿进入耶和华的院宇，

我的身心向永活的上帝欢呼。

…

Blessed are those whose strength is in you,

who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.

靠你得力量、向往到锡安朝见你的人有福了！

…

For the LORD God is a sun and shield;

the LORD bestows favor and honor;

no good thing does he withhold

from those whose walk is blameless.

因为耶和华上帝是太阳，是盾牌；

祂赐下恩惠和尊荣，

不留下任何好处不赐给行为正直的人。

(Psalm 诗篇 84)
