Title: I have done nothing (1 Samuel 15:10)
nothing i did
1 Samuel 15:10-15
Think about it. Why is this? As well as our character, so is our faith. This kind of personality that does not know how to obey, lacks faith in the spirit, and thinks things impatiently, is irresistible. It's really hard to meet someone like this. People who know only themselves all the time, who try to stand up for themselves, are really tired people.
There are people who need to express themselves in some way to unlock their personality. For example, there are people who talk a lot because they want others to know how smart they are, and there are people who show off their expensive clothes because they want to know that they are rich, and others relatively ignore people who are not. I want you to get to know me somehow. Especially when I have left something, people have a strong desire for others to know it. I hope that my work will be recognized somehow and that I will be respected by many people.
Everyone, you must have been to the cemetery. There is a tombstone there. When I see the name of the tombstone written on the tombstone, I stop walking and there is a tombstone that I am always interested in. It is a tombstone that says Or, I don't know why my heart is so happy and at ease when I see tombstones with the words "Elder Nougat", "Kwonsa Nougae", "Deacon" and "Nougae" written on them. Because it has meaning. For some reason, this one tombstone is like seeing a person's entire life, and there are times when it's overwhelming. At least we are such people. Need something better to be remembered than this? No one would have liked it to be written like this.
Today we need to rethink our purpose in life. You will have to think about what your ultimate goal is. And we must not forget that every moment of each day in this world is an important step towards that destination.
Also, what was the most fatal mistake of Saul was that he did not repent when he had the opportunity to repent. Gentlemen, proud people do not know how to repent. I eat my heart, but I can't repent. Even if you repent, you cannot repent. I regret it, but I do not repent. So when the prophet Samuel rebuked Saul, he did not repent. You are making your own excuses before God in a silly way. If you read a book by a man called [Laura Schlesinger], he said that excuses ruin your life. The moment you make excuses, the truth leaves, grace leaves, and you leave the hallway. There is no repentance in making excuses.
What excuses are we good at? There is an excuse called “Because we are human.” But when things are going well, he, a human, puts himself out as if he did well. But the truth is, this excuse needs to be considered a little. Because it is blasphemy against God the Creator. Did God create sin from the beginning? God has asked man to rule over sin, not to sin. Only the first man sinned. Being human does not mean that we have no choice but to sin. If you think about it, there were ways to avoid it, and there might not be. God has given us abundant strength and has also given us wisdom to overcome. Therefore, it is our responsibility, not God's.
Dear saints!
What we are ashamed of before God is when we present ourselves as if we did even though we did nothing. We need to know that there is nothing we can do in our lives. That way you can be humble. We must not forget that we are human beings who were created so that we could not be proud before God. Look back on your life. Are there things that I think I did? Even that was done by God. If we are foolish in our lives, where we are putting ourselves up like Saul and building our own monuments with a heart to be proud of, I hope that you will quickly turn in your faith and come back to a place of wisdom.
