平庸的人

Safely we may leave the crowded meeting, the inspiring mountain top, the helpful fellowship of "just men," and betake ourselves to our dim homely Emmaus, or to our dread public Colossae, or even to our far Macedonia in the mission field, quietly confident that just where He has placed us, in the usual round of life, He ordains that the borderland may be possessed, the victory won.

也许神要我们离去一个弟兄姊妹众多的聚会，一个最能给我们生气的山顶，一些有帮助的义人的交通，而回到平庸的以马忤斯去，或者到世俗的歌罗西去，或者竟到遥远的马其顿去，我们应当大着胆深信：神无论将我们放在甚么地方，祂早已命定那地方的胜利，会给我们获得。

Of course, everybody has a right to choose a lifestyle. I don't wish to swim with the tide just to get the seemingly rigorous style, and longing for the mediocre happiness is only my lifestyle, despite the saying "if you don't fight now, when will it be". My own interrogation has certainly gone sideways.

当然，每个人有权选择自己的生活方式，我不想随波逐流地得到一种表面的轰轰烈烈，我渴望平庸的幸福只是我生命的一种形式，即便是"此时不搏，更待何时"，对自己的拷问也一定应该是纵向的。
