Our desire is that the Holy Spirit, who is the Divine Revealer and Interpreter of Christ and His truth, may impart to your hearts a sober, spiritual and sanctifying receptivity of His Word—abasing self, and exalting Christ!
我们的愿望是圣灵，这位基督及其真理的神圣启示者和解释者，能将对祂话语的庄重、属灵和使人成圣的领受力赐给你们的心——使自我降卑，基督被高举！

Our intention is to unfold and illustrate the Lord Jesus Christ in the relation in which He stands to His people—to unveil His glory, beauty, and fullness—to define the close bond of union that unites all His people to Him—and to bring you into a more personal realization of what Christ is to you, and of what you are to Christ.” (Octavius Winslow)
我们的目的是展开并阐明主耶稣基督与祂子民之间的关系——揭示祂的荣耀、美丽和丰盛——定义将祂所有子民与祂联合的紧密纽带——并带领你更加个人化地认识基督对你的意义，以及你对基督的意义。”（奥克塔维尔斯·温斯洛）

Our objective is to set before the Christian pilgrim some reflections which may prove challenging, consolatory and encouraging—as he journeys up from this bleak, arid, wilderness world, leaning on his Beloved.
我们的目标是在基督徒朝圣者面前呈现一些具有挑战性、安慰性和鼓励性的默想——当他从这荒凉、干旱的旷野世界向上攀登时，倚靠着他的良人。

May God’s blessing attend our humble effort to minister comfort to the downcast, strength to the weak, and courage to those who have set their faces towards their glorious eternal home.
愿神的祝福伴随我们卑微的努力，将安慰带给沮丧者，将力量赐给软弱者，将勇气给予那些已经面向荣耀永恒家乡的人们。
