Title: God Who Always Does Good
Why do you believe in Jesus? If you ask me a question like that, I'll just say, 'I believe in living'. I will answer, ‘I believe in living well’. Isn't living and living well the salvation that the Bible speaks of?
The hardest thing in the world is living well. The opposite of living well is poor. Why can't people live? What makes us miserable? We can easily find the answer in the words we habitually say. It means 'I can't live because it's hard'.
We find the reason we can't live in hard work. But is it really ‘hard work’ to keep us from living? Can we really live well without hard work?
However, the Bible believes that living well or not living well depends on faith. The Bible believes that no matter how difficult or difficult things are, if you have faith, you will live well, and no matter how hard you seem, you will end up not living without faith.
If you really have faith, can you survive no matter how hard the world is? Yes that's right. It really is.
No matter how difficult and difficult the world is, if you can truly believe in God, and if you can truly believe and live the Word of God, you can live. You can live well.
President Kim Young-gil, the president of Handong Global University, suffered a lot in the early days because of the school. Today's Handong Global University was established through events that can only be explained as a miracle of God. Since you have walked on a path where there is no other way than the miracle of God, how many difficulties must the president in charge of that school have faced? It was dark and frustrating, but I had to suffer a lot of wounds like this and that.
These are the words I heard directly from President Kim Young-gil's wife. One day, the president came to my house after receiving a wound that was hard to overcome as a human being because of the school. It is said that it was such a wound that I wondered if I would return to stress if I received such a wound. But the president, who is the real party, doesn't care. He ate well as usual and slept very well at night. I was thankful, but it was so strange and I didn't understand well, so I asked my husband a question. 'Isn't it hard for you to go through something like that yesterday?' The president's answer to that was very simple.
But even if you think about it over and over, it was a good answer. The answer is 'I'm dead, but what? Have you ever seen a dead man hurt and angry?’ The apostle Paul said in Galatians 2:20, “I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. I live by faith in '. Paul's confession became the confession of President Kim Young-gil through faith, and that confession of faith became the strength and ability to overcome such difficulties and pains, and made him live that made it live.
There is a saying that there are no trash cans in the kingdom of God. Even those who have been saved by faith do not have a trash can. It is said that there is nothing to throw away. Even the things that you really want to throw away because they are garbage, when you look back later, they all work together for good. Without it, we realize that the salvation we have today would not exist.
The reason that all things work together for good, and even hardships are useful to us, is because God is omnipotent and God loves us. When Almighty God loves us, nothing can happen to us that God does not know or does not want to happen. It cannot happen by chance.
All things are inevitable, and there is God's will that we cannot understand, and all of God's will is useful to us. That's good.
Dear friends, I hope you can believe this. And I hope that you will be saved by this faith. Hope you win. Beloved, people do not live well because there are no hardships. It's not that I can't live because of hard work. Therefore, to say that I cannot live because of hardship is strictly incorrect. It is not that we cannot live because of hardship, it is that we cannot live because we do not have faith. Only the righteous live by faith, not by effortlessness.
With faith in God, I hope that you and I will all be able to live a life that is always well lived by faith, not a life that cannot be lived through hardship with faith in God who always does good even in the realities that are difficult for us to understand. Amen. *
