Title: Golden Life
Golden Life
Text/ 3 John 1:2
1. Introduction
It's the first Sunday morning of the new year 2008. We will all read today's text with a slow and meditative heart. I consider these words to be “the golden charter of life.” In the name of the Lord, I earnestly pray that these words will be fulfilled in the concrete real life of all of us in 2008.
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper and be in good health as your soul prospers.
Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well (3 John 1:2)
I met a group of young people who came down singing “Aeo Raji” (Written by Byeong-Geol Kim - Composer by Hyo-Seong Kim - Song by Tae-Ho Lee), the 0-ranked karaoke bar these days, excited about having a drink while hiking Mt. Soyo on the first day of the new year. I don't know how to sing either, but I like Aoraji. However, it bothered me that young people sang Aoraji on New Years Day. Because the lyrics of the song somehow have a deep atmosphere like life's sorrow - futileness - passive sad fate - pathetic fate - self-help lamentation.
*I lived as much as I had, as much as I had without it, as much as I had. Shaking when the wind blows, wet when it rains, there is no such world where there are no partings and no tears, but I still love and want to live with a smile.
* When you are happy, you sow as much as you are happy and when you are sad, you live as much as you sow. As much as I have, as much as I know, as much as I have learned As much as I have heard, there is no such thing as a world without poverty and without shadows, but I still want to love and smile.
2. The starting point of the Golden Life is healthy self-esteem
Healthy self-esteem needs to be distinguished from self-esteem. Pride is a feeling of self-evaluation felt by comparing one's physical, economic, mental, and spiritual abilities (that is, possessions-appearance-achievements-education-positions-church positions, etc.) with the abilities of others. . Thus, pride is accompanied by feelings of superiority-confidence or inferiority-self-loathing.
Self-esteem (self-respect) is an ontological value that is different from self-esteem, which compares superiority and inferiority with others. Self-esteem is “awareness that I am unique and special throughout the universe of past-present-future” and feeling that I am a very important person (VIP) worthy of being so valuable-valuable-respectable-loving just by myself. It is an ontological self-affirming mind attitude.
3. Wisdom for healthy self-esteem
first. First of all, believe in yourself unconditionally. After overcoming fatal testicular and brain cancer, Lance Armstrong won the world-famous "Tour de France" for the fourth time in a row. (Mi) said, “One sure lesson I have learned from cancer is that I am a much greater person than I knew I was. In other words, when a person faces a crisis situation, the hidden ability within himself that he was not aware of is released.” The flame of the great-holy-divine God is constantly burning in all people. The Bible grandly declares that God created man in the image of God.
I'm not a trivial person to use for a frivolous-limited-looking thing. I am much greater than I think I am!. God's love surrounds me. The power of God is working within me. God's creative wisdom is springing up within me. The mystery of God's healing flows within me. God's cosmic energy - vitality - Elan Vital is flashing within me. So, first of all, believe in yourself unconditionally.
2. First of all, live with the great vision-plan-dream. It is not a vision of living with your nose in the ground, but a vision of looking up at the sky. Gestalt pschology has revealed that people who live the big picture rather than the small picture are more likely to succeed. In other words, I do not fall into the present pain because I know that my failures and faults, or the current pain that I am inevitably suffering, is only a small part of the picture of my life.
3. First of all, always think positively about yourself and life problems. The final conclusion of the psychologists who studied the personality traits of Nobel Laureates in each field was that “they were all positive thinkers, no matter how pessimistic and impossible they were. There were no exceptions!” is.
Kipling's poem <If> is engraved at the entrance to the Wimbledon Stadium in the English Tennis Hall.
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs can blaming it on you
If you can trust yourself when all man doubt you
But make allowance for their dougting too.
If you lose everything and everyone in the world criticizes you, if you can deal with them with your posture straight and your head upright, if everyone in the world doubts you, only you can trust yourself. If you can...
