wealth of life
1 Corinthians 15:50-58
It is said that people grow old when they feel death, but there is a story that in order to become even a little more mature, sometimes you have to smell the scene or smell of death in order to not lose your humility and come to your senses.
A man is raising his only daughter late, and one day, the daughter was hit by a van and dragged 10 meters to death on the spot. Watching the girl holding her body and going through the hole, she realized how precious, precious, and grateful it is to be alive. As he testified, he confessed that his faith had become mature.
1. Right humanity
The happiest life in this world is a life of indecisiveness. Without a center, it cannot grow, and without determination, one cannot realize the truth.
In order to succeed, indecisiveness is the most hated and distance from indecision, and even if there is a loss and death later, if there is a good feeling, make a decision and go out.
I can't help but look at how petty and shy it is.
There is humor like this, because the scariest people in the world are firefighters, and they don't care about fire.
It is said that the person who is scarier than the fireman is blind, because he cannot see.
But there is a person who is really scary, and that is the person who does not see their own faults and only looks at the faults of others and cuts them.
Now, when you have an eye to see your own shortcomings, you can restore your true humanity. That eye is a kind of spiritual eye, and when you have such a spiritual eye, your humanity is also restored.
2. Right values
When people talk about success, people usually think that they are successful if they have the ability to satisfy their desires, and also think that they are successful if they get first place, gain fame and earn a lot of money.
Success that ignores the needs of others is never a success.
There are two types of believers, one is a 'servant saint' and the other is a 'served saint'.
In the end, giving is life.
Now, when we have to give up the worldly value of only receiving and have the biblical value of giving, our life can be changed and the changed values can become assets.
If you kill greed and live according to the biblical values, you hear something like, “I believed that man Jesus, and he has definitely changed! How can you be so humble? I believed in Jesus and became a really cool guy!” Anyone who hears such words is the most successful by any means.
3. Vision and Hope
The saints are those who are guaranteed the final victory.
Therefore, even if it is difficult, we must stand up from a sense of defeat and go forward with a vision and hope.
When the vision is clear, discouragement and complaints decrease and eventually wins, but when the vision is blurred, discouragement and complaints increase and ultimately losers.
When David had a brilliant vision, he even overcame a great Goliath, but when he lost his vision and became indolent, not even a woman could win, so he committed adultery and fell into great trouble.
There is a lost vision and we need to find it.
And if you find a vision, you have to pay a fair price to keep it, and sometimes you have to learn to give up a comfortable life because of the vision.
Great people are those who have given up their comforts for the sake of a vision.
No one in this world has achieved a vision without the experience of giving up, and no vision is achieved without a price.
In the mid-1800s, there was a man who abandoned his vision and followed the will of the Lord, a famous Swiss banker.
He met Napoleon the Great, who had the greatest power in the world at the time, and tried to lead economic cooperation between France and Switzerland to become a hero of great wealth.
He went to Paris with that vision, but when he heard that Napoleon had just left for battle, he went to the battlefield to meet him, and witnessed a fierce battle between France and Austria. When the battle was over, hell unfolded before his eyes.
He listened to the corpses of both armies and the moans of the wounded, and joined forces with the villagers to heal the wounded. After that, while praying to go to see Napoleon, he found a new vision in his heart, instead of the dream of negotiating with Napoleon to obtain great wealth, and that dream was peace for mankind.
Henri Dunant, the founder of the International Red Cross movement.
If we hold on to God's vision, not our own, from then on, life becomes a wonderful tool to achieve the Lord's vision.
Now, I pray that God's will will become my will and that God's vision will become my vision.
4. Excessive joy
There are many times in life when we get hurt in our hearts, but believers with good faith find it miraculously healed quickly.
It is because the Lord comforts the broken heart and the Holy Spirit touches it.
Even when a saint walks alone, in reality, the Lord walks with him, and when he realizes that fact, he gains strength, joy, and laughter. This is the most beautiful and polite face in the world.
I pray that everyone who gathers for worship today will become the most beautiful and polite face in the world.
conclusion
Now, I pray that the right humanity will be restored with an eye to see one's own shortcomings.
That eye is a kind of spiritual eye, and when you have such a spiritual eye, your humanity will be restored.
It is a life-enhancing asset.
Now, when we have to give up the worldly value of only receiving and have the biblical value of giving, our life can be changed and the changed values can become assets.
It is a life-enhancing asset.
I bless them to dream and practice a life that gives them a wonderful life.
If we hold on to God's vision, not our own, from then on, life becomes a wonderful tool to achieve the Lord's vision.
It is an asset that nourishes this life.
Even when a saint walks alone, in reality, the Lord walks with him, and when he realizes that fact, he gains strength, joy, and laughter. This is the most beautiful and polite face in the world.
I pray that everyone who gathers for worship today will become the most beautiful and polite face in the world.
It is a life-enhancing asset.
God bless you to dream of a life and to put it into practice.
There are so many people waiting for the touch of love around them like that.
When the saints have the assets that nourish their lives, the experience of grace to meet the Lord will be vivid, and on this earth, they will receive blessings and the rewards in heaven will increase.
I pray that you will become bright souls who always purify the world with these assets armed with faith.
