2024-09-06 1,140 Y135 Course - Conduct

To Get Things Done, with Results

Good day to all. Let us continue discussing some topics. As Christians, we must understand the power of the tongue. It is like this: when God created the heavens and the earth, He spoke, Let there be light, and there was light. Even now, many people do not fully grasp the profound meaning of this statement. Light came into being just like that? So, I tell you, learning to speak is crucial.

God speaks, and things come to pass, can you comprehend this? Many do not, but such is the reality. When things are accomplished, they appear excellent, hence you must cultivate a good tongue. The tongue wields significant influence. The outcomes one achieves in life stem entirely from matters of speech. If you are an online influencer, are you not sustained by your words? Is it not so? But whether your words, upon being heard, bring solace or distress, that is the crux of the matter.

Therefore, I must inform you that enjoying the fruits of your labor yields results. We are now in our sixth session on getting things done, titled Enjoying the Fruits of Labor. I have prefaced this with a caveat: enjoying the fruits of labor is greatly intertwined with the words you utter. So, why do many endeavors fail? Because of a foul mouth: Oh, it's impossible. It's over, it can't be done. Isn't it? How can things succeed then? Oh, it's such a drudgery. Drudgery? I reckon life itself becomes a bitter vegetable, does it not? If one toils in drudgery all day, won't they become a bitter vegetable?

Oh, looking at that face all day, it's a bitter gourd face. Do you all know what a bitter gourd face is? Have you seen a bitter gourd? Oh, look at how that bitter gourd grows, wrinkled and all. The skin is all wrinkled, isn't it? It's truly called a bitter gourd. If someone looks like a bitter gourd, can they enjoy life? Is it not so? A face so weary that it induces despair in others.

Then, they cannot get things done. To do things is to get them done. How is it accomplished? I tell you, you must know how to speak. See how I say this, Oh, this task is so arduous, so difficult. Look at that work, piled up like a mountain. Have you experienced this? Surely, you have. And what do you say? Oh, God, why did you let me encounter this? It's over, it's over, isn't it? Listen, if you utter it's over all day, won't you be finished? Surely, you will be finished. Therefore, you must know how to speak when you work.

Hey, little thing, I can't handle you? If you say it is a little thing today, and say it is a little thing again tomorrow, gradually you will become formidable. Hey, little thing, I can't handle you? Can't eliminate you? If I can't eliminate you today, I'll eliminate you tomorrow; if I can't eliminate you tomorrow, I'll eliminate you the day after tomorrow.

So later, I discovered that people whose endeavors end poorly all have foul mouths. Is it not so? Foul mouths. Then why do you enjoy listening to me ramble on? Actually, I am a little worried. Worried about what? Worried that I ramble on and on, and then you say, Oh, he talks about the same things, the same old stuff every day. But do not say that, I know that if I say you are talented, what do you think? Ah? I am talented? If I say you can get things done, what do you think? People listen, Oh, that's impossible. Look at those people! If I say you will achieve success, what do you think? Good, that's great. So, after saying this, I feel good, you feel good, and things get done. Is it not so?

If you are frowning and working all day, can it not be hard? When your husband comes home, he sees you as an enemy; you look in the mirror and see yourself as an enemy. Oh my goodness, how do I live this life? I say, Oh, I might as well die sooner. Is it not so? How can you live like this? I am saying this as a joke. But the issue is what? The issue is that the environment we initially face is very chaotic, and the problems we initially face seem like a mountain piled up before us. Is it not so? The question is, can I eliminate this mountain, this problem before me? I tell you, surely you can. Then you must ask, use what to say it? Use what to do it? Use the mouth to do it; your mouth must know how to say: I can definitely do it. I tell you, whether you are a student or a student's mother, never have a foul mouth; a foul mouth ruins everything.

So, the mouth is not just to speak sweetly like it's smeared with oil or sugar. No, it is to say that this thing can definitely be done, that is called character, that is called the character to get things done. To do things is to get them done with results.

Then, some people date a hundred times, how tiring is that? Oh my goodness, a reinforced company, a reinforced company has not succeeded in one. You meet a hundred customers, and you have not closed a single deal. What do you eat and drink? Is that not tiring? It is tiring. You have interviewed a hundred times and have not found a job. You have submitted ten thousand resumes, received a hundred interviews, and have not found a job, no results. What can you do with a person who has no results? They do not know how to get things done. Getting things done is a very important habit. It would be so good if I could just get it done with one try. Everyone, it would be so good if you could just get it done with one try. If you get it done, you will enjoy it; if you do not get it done, you will be upset. Is it not so? They are upset, why are they upset? The matter fell through, after all the fuss, it failed.

Then, some people are anxious to arrange a job for their children. They like that job, but that job does not like them. So, they ask people, ask around, and end up giving people three hundred thousand as a bribe. The job was not found, and three hundred thousand was gone. You could give that three hundred thousand to your child as a salary, ten thousand a month for thirty months, three years. Why did you give it to someone else? Don't you think it is upsetting? Who wouldn't be upset?

Oh, the words spoken are like a fart that still has a sound, is it not? This three hundred thousand didn't even make a sound. Even if you bought fireworks with that three hundred thousand, they would still make a sound, right? It is all caused by bad habits. Then why do bad habits occur? Because things cannot be done. Then is it acceptable if small things cannot be done? I often say this: I say, What is this? Those who can get things done do not want to do it, and those who cannot get things done must do it. What kind of brain is this? They are not down-to-earth, they cannot do what they look up to, then what can you do? High aspirations and low abilities. Many people are like this, they just do not want to get small things done.

If you get one small thing done, ten small things done, then combined, isn't that a big thing? Is it not so? They just do not want to do it, they always want to do something big. As a result, at the age of ten, they want to do something big, but they fail. At the age of twenty, they want to do something big, but they fail. At the age of thirty, they want to do something big, but they fail. In the blink of an eye, they are fifty, a person who has achieved nothing, what can you do with them in this life? Nothing achieved! So, it is hard work to pastor people who have achieved nothing in the church.

Someone typed, Teacher, you have spoken about me again. It is very painful. But you have closed a few deals, right? You are doing okay in sales, right? Whether it is with a bit of coaxing or deception, anyway, the customer has signed the order, so it is still okay. So, I think it is very important to have the quality of getting things done with results. Some people might say, Teacher, look, I have even been made unemployed. At this time, although you have nothing, you have time, do not let this time be wasted. In the past, you were busy and tired with work, and you would just scroll through your phone and watch Douyin. As you shook, you became a dou, and now you have lost your job.

What to do if you lose your job? Develop the habit of doing things, and rethink how you should do things, that is being human, so being human and doing things are two aspects of the same thing. Being human and doing things are two aspects of a person. You must make yourself valuable, if you are there, things can be done, if you are not there, others cannot get things done, then you are talented, right?

Those of us who are lazy and stupid have hope. Why? Because from now on, I am going to declare: You can get things done, you are talented. After listening, do you feel something? You do feel something.

What is the Result of What You Do?

It sounds like I am preaching, but I am actually giving a lesson, called Enjoying the Fruits of Labor. The first point is to have results. The second point is what? What is the result of what you do? The first point, to get things done, you must start from small things.

The second point is to get things organized. Oh, why am I sounding like someone from Hubei? People from Hubei say gao yi gao, use gao yi gao for everything, gao a little of this and gao a little of that. People from Northeast China say zheng yi zheng, zheng a little of this and zheng a little of that. Now, gao yi gao, organize things in an orderly way, is it not so? You know whether a person enjoys doing things, this is a very magical thing. Where is it magical? I tell you, it is because no one likes chaos. Because when you complete something, it begins to become orderly, this is called a thing. What is the result of doing things? It is to get things done in an orderly way.

The heavens and the earth were empty and chaotic, what you saw was a tangled mess. People live, the whole thing is living in emptiness and chaos. Finances are a mess, physical condition is also a mess. Until death, they have never seen or understood what it is like to get things organized in an orderly way, they do not know. I want to tell you, you must know, orderly, not the orderly of regulating the body, but of regulating matters into an orderly state. You know, when people see such a good environment, they will feel it is really good.

A few days ago, we had a friend who went to his aunt's house. He lives in his son's house, and his son's house is organized in an orderly way, everything looks very clean. His son was trained by me, he organizes things in an orderly way. The same is government rental housing, called public housing, seventy or eighty percent of Singapore lives in public housing, it is cheap. But, his house is organized in an orderly way, designed, renovated, redesigned, renovated again. As a result, the place where they live has already undergone four versions of renovation. They were not satisfied with the first version, so they tore it down. They were not very satisfied with the second version either, so they tore it down. The third version, hey, pretty good. The fourth version, wow, very good.

As a result, his mother went to see his aunt, don't ask whose aunt, oh my, that house was so dirty, oh my goodness, there was only one path to walk on, it was all piled up with things, it was upsetting to look at. Then I ask you, living in such a living environment, can they be well? They cannot be well. We all must know that if you see that the environment is a chaotic environment, your brain will not work well, and your physical strength will not be good either. Is it not so? Because you made the environment that way, you have to start adjusting. If you cannot even organize this, if you cannot even organize the little place where you sleep, what can you organize? Then you have lived in vain. So, I have to advise everyone, shouldn't you first organize your living environment well?

People like me, our tenants, rent my places, so of course, I collect rent, is it not good to collect rent? The tenants cannot even tolerate the chaos of that place. Is it not so? Then the house is dirty and messy. Then someone calls and says I want to see the house, then you go see it. Do I want it? No. The next day, I want to come see the house, oh my, I don't want it, it's too dirty.

Hey, after showing it to a hundred people, not one rented it. I have to tell you, then I am exhausted. Then I will tell you, this thing is no longer chaotic, it is all in order, very neat. The washing machine in our rental house is cleaner than the washing machine you use yourself. Do you believe it? You may not believe it.

Neat and tidy, that is the word. How was it done? I did it by working. I tell you, after living in our rental house, it is difficult to find another house to rent. Why is it difficult? It looks clean, and they cannot stand looking at other places. So, our tenants stay for many years, and they do not change much. I raised the rent, but they did not change. Do you think my work has increased or decreased? My work has decreased, is it not so?

That thing is called each according to its kind. In good order, clean. Then I have to say a phrase to you, you must know it, write it down, trash attracts trash. Do you understand? You pile up a small pile of trash there. Hey, in a few days, you will find that it is a big pile of trash. The government is also like this, they pile up a small pile of trash in one place, and in a few days, it becomes a big pile, it is unbearable, it is really strange that trash attracts trash.

My junky rental apartment attracts junky tenants – isn't that uncanny? Therefore, I cannot tolerate even a speck of trash. A speck attracts a small pile, which in turn attracts a big pile. That's how it works. Why? Because it stays clean always. Isn't it? Environmental cleanliness reflects mental cleanliness.

Why is that? Because if your mind is in such a mess, you can't stand it. I certainly can't. You see, a new environment, clean, orderly, and squared away. Understand? This starts generating activity in your mind. Isn't it? Is there work to do? Yes, there's always work to do in our family. When my father was alive, he would tell my brother-in-law, When the holiday comes, get this done. When May Day comes, get this done. And then, going out for fun would be off the cards. May Day would pass, then the holiday; the holiday would pass, then May Day. My brother-in-law would say, How come you have so much work? You never finish it. Why? Because my father loved cleanliness.

You have to say, both my father and mother were industrious. They kept things at least clean, even though we were poor when I was young. So, I inherited my parents' strengths. I inherited my father’s trait of always having unfinished work, always fixing what's not right. Things no longer stayed chaotic. When things are no longer chaotic, you feel pleased to live there. It feels good, very comfortable. Where does the comfort come from? Enjoying the fruits of labor.

After working, you look and think, Ah, that's great. Ah, this is too good. That’s why I enjoy working. You tell me, where can you argue this point? I just enjoy working. So, if you want to be with me, there will be endless work. After it's done, you think, Ah, that's so comfortable. Later I discovered that people like me attract people like me. Many people around me are like this; they feel uncomfortable if they're not working.

Working is a perfect combination of mental and physical labor. We want to rent out this house. Of course, you have a house to rent out – that's because of the hard work over the past few years, right? It created a lot of value. So, you fix up the house. That's why the things I fix up are pretty good. Later, I developed many skills, the most important being renovating rental apartments, no more chaos. I ask you, how can you not enjoy it?

Cultivate a Positive Outlook

The most important thing about being a person is getting things done. If you want to get things done effectively, you must categorize them orderly. What result does that bring? Things don’t become more chaotic, but more organized. Now I'm talking about Genesis again, Genesis Chapter 1. If anyone can understand it thoroughly, they will be extraordinary. If what your eyes see is not good, what will happen? Teacher, my eyes are swollen. Teacher, my eyes hurt. Teacher, my eyes are red. Actually, I tell you, the eye is a very spiritual thing. So, you get what you see. See bad, get bad.

You say, I see such chaos; chaos means there's work to do. Ah, I haven't worked for days; my muscles are uncomfortable. Ah, finally I have work to stretch out. I can't tolerate chaos. I don't get upset when I see chaos; I see an opportunity for creation. Everyone must know that working is an anointing, and must know the joy of creation. The feeling before creation, when everything is upsetting, is completely different.

You might eat a Manchu Han Imperial Feast. It tastes good when you eat it, but after you lie down on the bed, it’s actually meaningless. It's just over. What happens the next day? Everyone knows that the feast ends up in the toilet. That’s roughly the process, isn't it? But when you see chaos and eliminate it, what happens? Oh, that comfortable feeling can stay with you for a long, long time. Many people don't know what that feeling is like yet. Maybe after listening to me and trying it a few times, you will understand.

When I see chaos, I change it, fix it up. When I see something wrong, I fix it up. I have a lot of work. You know all those server network cables, those power cords, network cables, USB cables, all tangled up like spider webs. Then you touch them, and something goes wrong, often something goes wrong. I arrange those network cables as neatly as a handsome man's hair. Isn’t it? Organize them, fix 'em up.

Did you see the chaos? Yes, I did. Did you see the opportunity? Yes, I did. Heaven has endowed me with talents for a purpose, isn't it? Not to squander life by indulging in wine, but heaven has endowed me with talents for a purpose and seeing a mess of chaos. Not solving problems by having a little drink. Put out your hand, and when you touch it, it crashes. Oh, all that effort, brain and hands working together, drawing diagrams, doing this, doing that migration, migrating here, migrating there, just doing it like that. After nearly a month of work, it's clean.

Then that day, I said to the small group of pastors I mentor, Look, let me take a picture; this is what I did. Oh, the feeling of happiness in my heart, and then when they praised me a few times, oh, I felt so comfortable, wasn't it? Ah, happy. Why? Because I saw the problem. I saw the problem, and I solved it. After the problem was solved, things were no longer chaotic. That is the result of my creation, much more comfortable than eating a Manchu Han Imperial Feast and then pooping it out, isn't it?

That's lasting comfort. I said, Come with me, come with me. He said, What are we doing? I said, Come and see. Ah, I don't have time. I dragged him to my place, and he looked and said, Ah, it's really good. He probably didn't see the chaos before it was resolved. He only saw the result – it was pretty good anyway. Isn’t it? That’s the vision.

When I saw that the church was spiritually desolate, I couldn't tolerate it. I wanted to build a church filled with God's glory. What was the result? Now, everything looks good. It looks good to me. Some pastors can't stand my success. When they see what I've done, they wonder why they can't do the same. They get angry, but that's not my problem.

Creation brings a feeling of enjoyment; that is enjoying the fruits of labor. This time, understand, not based on feeling. When we see extreme chaos, emptiness, darkness over the surface of the deep, that feeling is bad. But if you don't create, you don't do anything, it continues to be empty, chaotic, and feeling bad. So, I tell you, the feeling is created. This feeling of mine is all created by me. I make things right.

So, do you all know? Someone comes to you with depression, insomnia, feeling uncomfortable. Oh, their home is so dirty. They've been spitting phlegm for more than a week. Depression is just laziness. I heard his pastor tell me, Teacher, how do we release, mentor, and deal with things like this? I said, Simple, let him clean up his environment. Don't just keep releasing him and praying with him. He must be too lazy.

Then I said, Take a picture. He took a picture, and oh my goodness, after he cleaned up, I had to say with faith that it was much better than before, but according to my standards, oh dear, it was a pile of garbage, full of packages. It's tiring, isn't it? So, how do I train the pastors? By pushing you to work. If you are an industrious person, a person who loves to work, and keep things clean, it's hard to get depression. How is it possible to get depression? How is it possible to feel uncomfortable? You're too busy enjoying!

Is everyone doing well? Believe what I say, and you will become a person who enjoys life. This is my declaration. I declare with faith that what I say, God will accomplish. You must believe this. Let's talk about what you did last week. What did you do last month? Besides making things chaotic, is that right? The food you eat is quite proper, right? But the final result is all mushy, lumpy, and a little smelly.

So, what kind of people are we? Although I eat and poop, I am a normal person. However, I have other things in my heart. I can organize my living environment in an orderly manner. You say, I don't have time. I say, Where did the time go? I use my time to write notes, but it’s all in vain. Isn't it? If you write notes but your environment is still so dirty, that won't do. I'm not asking you to write notes. The notes are for you to clean up your mind, sort out what's in your head. It's very uncomfortable in your head when it's full of smog, isn't it?

So, how do we look at problems? When I see a person with depression, based on what I know, it's a very serious mental illness. People with depression feel very uncomfortable. They are habitually uncomfortable for no reason, uncomfortable every day. They suffer terribly. You have to know how painful depression is. It's just discomfort. You say, I have food and drink, but I still feel uncomfortable. Now, remove the garbage from your mind and the garbage from your environment. When you see these things, your outlook is good. This is an opportunity for creation, an opportunity for organizing, an opportunity for working. Working is a grace. You say, Teacher, I can't do it. But aren't I teaching you? I am teaching you.

So, the pastor among us takes his colleagues and trains them how to organize and store things. If the environment is so dirty, how dirty is the mind? Can the notes go into the mind? They can't. Clean up the garbage in your mind, clean up the garbage in your environment. The feeling of enjoyment you get from living is the result of your creation, the result of your labor and creation. The logic I'm speaking is very straightforward, isn't it? Who can do well living in emptiness and chaos? No one can do well.

Cultivate the Habit of Planning

Cultivate the habit of planning. How do you enjoy? Getting things done must have results. How can you have results? You must have a plan. Your eyes see the current situation and the situation after you finish. You see the beginning and the end. Looking in your mind, you see how things should be stored. Looking in your mind, you see how things should be. What to do? From the chaos you see now to the result you want to see, there must be a plan. What to do on the first day, what to do on the second day, what to do on the third day, what to do on the fourth day, what to do on the fifth day, what to do on the sixth day. And after it's done, God says, Ah, it is very good, isn't it?

Isn’t this it? If you read the Bible, and if you read it in English, you will see that this is good, good, and at the end, it is very good. Do you understand? In the end, it is very good. Wow, it’s done successfully. Ah, very good. Isn't it? God's plan is completed.

So, cultivate the habit of planning. Don't try to get fat with one bite, or swallow a fish whole and get the bone stuck in your throat. I tell you, how does a fish bite a hook? It sees the food is good and swallows it in one gulp. Trying to get fat with one bite, getting caught on the hook, and being on the dining table the next night. Isn't it? The next day, the fish ends up in the toilet.

Cultivate the good habit of planning. You only need to observe the problem and how it should be done, then what to plan? What am I going to do? Let's say I'm going to clean up my home, I am doing a project to get a result, called intelligent factory intelligent manufacturing. When the project is completed, the whole factory is a smart factory. Isn't it? All this depends on planning.

Cultivate the habit of planning before acting; do not expect to succeed all at once, for that is certainly not possible. Therefore, the word all at once is quite negative. So, cultivate the habit of planning. There is much to say, so we must have a plan. How to plan? Step one, step two, it is built up layer by layer. If the foundation is not well laid, the superstructure cannot be built. Let me tell you, whether you are poor—poverty can be clean—or wealthy—wealth can also be clean, having much or little, it all depends on the creativity in your mind. This creation must be planned, step by step.

You want to renovate, right? You must get the house in order. Do you think it's that easy? It involves a lot of planning; any part not done right will cause distress. Water, electricity, flooring, ceiling, walls, kitchen, bed—everything must be planned. Plan what to do, then plan how to do it. Just looking at the result is useless if you cannot do anything; in the end, it falls apart and you cannot enjoy it. Actually, enjoyment is in the process of planning and implementation.

Planning reveals oversights, which leads to problems. After a problem occurs, we learn a lesson, right? The next time we do the same thing, it won't happen again. So, I ask you, is that a good thing or a bad thing? It is a good thing. Many of us only want the result and do not want to be grounded in reality, which is fatal. So, not being grounded in reality, not planning, and only wanting the result will ruin everything.

Think about raising a child from birth. Fortunately, children are cute when they are born. If they weren't cute, raising them would be painful. Children are tender and fun to play with, right? But raising a child is a significant task. What kind of person will they become? If they become lazy, without plans or order, only wanting results without effort, it becomes a thorn in your side, not a joy. The child's job search is distressing, their marriage is distressing—a constant worry. They turn from a treasure to a thorn in your heart.

Why? Because of their upbringing. Is it not the result of your training? That's why I dislike the habit of not planning. Without a plan, thinking only of making money, you forget what to do if you lose money. You need to calculate and consider what to do in different scenarios lacking a plan. In the end, it becomes a mess which needs cleaning up. Then you say, Teacher, I am suffering. Who else would suffer? You are walking into suffering; how can you enjoy life?

Some people study hard for civil service exams, doing nothing else, for up to five years. After passing, they get a low-paying job in some remote county. It's distressing; how can they live? It's pathetic. How to survive for so little money? It's a source of worry. You didn't think about what you are doing.

If you want to pass an exam, staying at home just to study is not the best way. If you pass after a year, staying home for a year is OK. But what if it takes ten years? Staying home from your twenties to your thirties? The thought of it is upsetting, right? What should we do? If it takes four years, should you keep studying for four years? I know people spend four or five years after graduation just to study for civil service exams, which is foolish.

What will I do? I wouldn't do that. You can't know for sure when you will pass, right? You don't know. Do I know? I don't know either. You may have confidence, but I don't have that much confidence. I may be confident about passing next year, but what if I don't?

Train your character, your abilities, and find a means of livelihood, right? You need to make a living. What if you don't? I tell you, cleaning toilets can earn a good income, cleaning toilets is good.

I think that people make not planning into a habit. So you find talking to me and I am tired because we often end up going in different directions. Why? Because I am thinking about what to do if this happens or if that happens. But you are only thinking about succeeding, right?

Studying five years for postgraduate exams, five years for job exams, five years for civil service exams; aren't those five years wasted? We should plan what we do, what actions to take. Plan how to do things in different scenarios. The result is obvious.

Cultivate Good Learning Habits

You were not born knowing how to succeed. Who wasn't born a naked, chubby little boy or girl, without clothes, unable to dress themselves? No child is born knowing how to read. If you give them a word, what do they recognize? Nothing. Even with prenatal education, they still don't recognize it. You, the mother, may know the word, but the child doesn't. We are all born that way.

What is not learned after birth? What can you do from birth? Everything must be learned. Therefore, cultivate the habit of learning. If learning is painful, why? Because you don't know what to learn for and the point of learning. But if you want to solve problems, you must learn something. Whether it's finding a Prince Charming or a Prince Not-So-Charming, it involves something you don't know. So you must learn, right? So cultivate learning, enjoy learning, because you are learning to solve a problem. From not knowing to knowing, once you learn, it's easy to do, easy to succeed. How can you not enjoy it?

So sometimes I boast a little. I tell you, I am good at living. When I was a student, I enjoyed being a student; when I was a teacher, I enjoyed being a teacher; when I became a pastor, I enjoyed being a pastor; doing programming, I enjoyed programming; doing management, I also enjoyed management. My whole life has been about enjoying everything. Learning, right? That is my own learning is everything that I have not done before is something you don’t you know how to do it. Enjoy learning.

Cultivate Good Habits of Confidence

If you cannot enjoy learning, what should you do? Some people don't enjoy it. Why not? I have researched this in detail. I concluded that learning, planning, and problem-solving can be summarized as confidence. So, point six: cultivate good habits of confidence. This confidence is the basis of everything.

You think I can't handle you? I'll handle you today, or tomorrow, or the day after. If not this year, then next year, or by future generations. I don't have children yet, but even to my future descendants, I refuse to believe I can't handle you. I will be a person of confidence. No matter how big the obstacle is, it becomes a small stone. No matter how big the problem is, it will be removed by my faith, because God is working with you. How is the mountain moved? It is your faith that moves the hand of God.

God will move this mountain, and in the end, your success will not be due to your own ability, because human ability is always smaller than the obstacle we face. But because we have faith, God's ability is in us. If God's ability is in us, how can we not have a good life? In my faith, everyone will have great breakthroughs financially, because you become someone who enjoys working and enjoys the fruits of labor. The fruits of labor include financial reward, which will definitely improve.

So, my brothers and sisters cultivate good habits of confidence. Everything before you is a small matter. Therefore, patience and perseverance are called confidence.

I once watched a short film called Death Crawl. A person crawling on the ground, carrying another person on their back. I cried as I watched it, because I am that kind of person: persevering to the end. My God is like a coach beside me, encouraging me: Keep up, don't give up. Constant training. Reaching the end, he discovered he had crawled one hundred and ten yards, thinking he was carrying someone weighing one hundred and twenty pounds, but the person on his back told the coach, Teacher, I weigh one hundred and sixty pounds. The teacher was stunned.

Even more impressive! There is nothing you cannot overcome in your faith. You can give up today, fail tomorrow, but you must persevere in faith. It is the best enjoyment because without perseverance, there is no victory. It is already difficult, but perseverance brings victory, and the joy of victory fills us; God becomes your strength.

So, on the road to building God's glorious church, success brings the joy of victory, and then a deeper, greater desire for victory. It's all good, right? Life is already painful, so let us use that same pain on perseverance, not lying down and getting up repeatedly, give up, repeatedly we are just a repeated cycle and getting no fulfillment and satisfaction.

Get up, take responsibility, do things well. Learning is difficult, but remember the church is there to help, God will make you to be my grace, trained me too. That is what I want to tell everyone: enjoy the fruits of labor. To have no result is painful, but start becoming a person that obtains a result.

Many years ago, those who left the church, when I meet them, they give me a assessment. They said, Teacher, you will get what you want; you will not give up until you get it. You are that kind of person. I say, You are right. Go and do the same, and you will enjoy your whole life.

This is us, this is the character of the Chinese Mingding Doctrine, this is called faith. From today on, constantly train yourself, get up after falling, persevere after failing again. You can definitely live out the image of God, especially with the church supporting you.

Until today, I must tell you that I want to develop more courseware, more training, practical training, but my ability is limited. Although I am anxious, I still plan to push forward step by step. Those who don't know how to learn must become those who know how to learn; those who don't know how to do things must become those who know how to do things. This is a place for training people until I see God's face and receive his praise. Amen!

May God bless everyone.

大家好,我们接着跟大家讨论一些话题。作为基督徒,要知道嘴巴这个东西其实很厉害。这事儿是这样的,当时神创造天地开口说话,祂说要有光,就有了光。这事直到现在,很多人还是读不太懂这句话的深意。就有了光?事情就这样成了?所以我跟你讲,学会说话是非常重要的。 神说了事情就会成了,你能理解吗?很多人不理解,但事实就是这样。事情一成了,看着真好,所以你得练就一副好嘴巴。嘴巴对人的影响是很大的。你看,一个人活出来的结果,全因为嘴巴的事儿。如果你是个网红,你不也是靠嘴巴生活吗?是不是?但你嘴巴说出来的东西,人家听了以后闹心不闹心,就是这么个事儿。

所以,我得告诉大家,享受劳碌的果实,这是有结果的。现在讲的是做事篇的第六讲,叫做享受劳碌的果实。我这一开头就加了一个帽:享受劳碌的果实,跟你嘴巴说出来的东西,关系非常大。所以,为什么很多事做不成呢?因为嘴巴太臭:“哎呀,不可能的了。完了,不可能了”。是吧?事儿怎么可能成呢?哎呀,真是个苦差。苦差?我看活着就成了苦菜了,是不是?他整天做苦差,他不成苦菜了吗? 哎呦,整天一看那张脸,这脸就是个苦瓜脸。大家知道苦瓜脸吗?见过苦瓜没有?哎呦,你看那苦瓜长的,哎呦,那苦瓜长得真好,皱巴的。那皮都是皱巴的,是不是?真是叫苦瓜啊。你说这人长得像个苦瓜,他能享受吗?是不是?满脸的样子太辛苦,看着都让人家绝望啊。 那他不可能把事做成。做事就把事做成。怎么就做成了呢?我告诉你,嘴巴里头得会说。你看我说这话,哎哟,这事干的这个费劲的,这个难啊,你看那工作,像山一样的堆在那块儿,有没有?大家肯定有这种感觉。然后嘴巴怎么说,哎呀,神啊,你怎么让我碰到这件事儿。完了完了,有没有。大家听听,你整天完了完了你不完蛋了吗?是不是,你肯定完蛋了,所以做工你得会说。

哎,小样的,我整不了你了。今天你说它是小样的,明天你再说它是小样的,慢慢你就厉害了。哎,小样的,我整不了你了,干不掉你?今天干不掉我明天干掉,明天干不掉我后天干掉。 所以后来我就发现,做事烂尾的人都是嘴臭。是不是?嘴巴臭。那为什么你们喜欢听我嘚啵嘚?其实我还是有点小担心。担心什么呢?担心我整天嘚啵嘚、嘚啵嘚,然后你们说,哎呀,每天讲的就那点东西、就那玩意儿。但你可别说,我可知道,我说你是个人才,你觉得怎么样?“啊?我是个人才啊?”我说你可以把事做成,你觉得怎么样?大家听:“哎呀,那不可能。”你看这些人!我说你会成就,你觉得怎么样?“好,太好了。”所以说这事儿这嘴巴说完了以后,我也感觉好了,你也感觉好了,事就这样成了。是不是? 你想整天拧着鼻子干活,你说那能不辛苦吗?老公回来看你像冤家,你自己照照镜子一看像冤家。哎哟天哪,这辈子都咋活啊。我说哎呀,早点死算了。是不是,就这样咋活?我这是开玩笑的话。但是问题是啥呢?问题是,我们一开始面对的环境都是很混乱,我们一开始面对问题都很像一座山堆在咱们眼前。是不是?那问题是,这座山,摆在我面前的这个问题,到底能不能把它干掉?我可告诉你啊,肯定能。那你得问,用啥说?用啥干?用嘴巴干,你嘴巴得会说:我肯定能做到。我告诉你,你做一个学生,或者你做一个学生的妈妈,千万不要嘴臭,嘴臭的人就把事给干烂尾了。

所以说这嘴巴不是说话像抹了油似的,不是像抹了糖似的说甜的。不是,是说啥呢?是说这事儿一定可以做成,这叫做性格,这叫做把事做成的性格。要做事就把事做成有结果。 那有的人谈一百个恋爱,多累啊。哎呦我的天,一个加强连,一个加强连没谈成一个。你见了一百个顾客,没谈成一个项目。那你吃啥喝啥啊,那不累吗?累啊。面试了一百次,一个工作都没找到。投了一万封简历,得到一百个面试,一个工作都没找到,没结果。那人没有结果你说怎么整啊,就不知道把事儿做成。做成,是很重要的习惯。我做一个就成了,那多好啊。诸位,一个就成了多好啊。做成,人就会享受,做不成,闹心。是不是?他们闹心,为啥闹心?事儿烂尾了,折腾了半天,黄了。 那有的人,要给他孩子安排工作,着急啊。他喜欢那份工作,那份工作不喜欢他呀。就托人,托来托去,就给了人三十万送礼。工作没找着,三十万没了。你拿那三十万给你孩子发薪水﹐能发三十个月,一个月发一万,三年啊。你给人干啥呀?你说是不是闹心了,让谁谁不闹心呢?

哎呀,这说的话就是放个屁还有响呢,是不是啊?这三十万啥响都没有,哪怕这三十万买了礼花还带响呢,是吧。全都是坏习惯导致的。那为什么会导致坏习惯呢?就是事儿做不成。那小事儿做不成,你说能接受吗?我常常说这话:我说这是什么事呢?能把事做成的不想干,那干不成的非得去干,你说这什么脑子?他不是脚踏实地,看得上的干不来,那你看得上干啥呀?眼高手低呀。很多人都是这样,就是不想把小事做成。 你把一个小事做成了,十个小事做成,加起来不就一个大事了吗?是不是?他就不想干,老想干一票大的。结果到十岁时候干一票大的,没干成。二十岁想干一票大的,没干成。三十岁想干一票大的,没干成。转眼五十了,一事无成的人,这辈子你说怎么整?一事无成啊!所以在教会里头牧养一事无成的人,辛苦啊。 有人打字说老师你又说到我了,很心痛。你还做了几单吧?你做销售还行吧?是吧?不管是连忽悠带蒙的,反正是顾客签单了,也还行啊。所以说我想把事儿做成,有结果这是很重要的素质。有些人可能会说:“老师啊,你看我都做到失业了。”这个时候,虽然啥都没有,但就是有时间,不要让这段时间白白浪费了。以前工作忙、累,有点时间就刷手机、看抖音,抖着抖着自己就成斗了,然后现在没工作了。 没工作怎么办?养成做事的习惯,重新反思应该怎么做,这就是做人,所以做人和做事是一个事物的两个方面。做人做事是一个人的两个方面。你得让自己有价值,你在那儿那事就能做成,你不在那儿,别人做就做不成,那你就是人才,对不对? 我们当中那些懒的、笨的人有希望了。为什么呢?因为从现在开始我要宣告:“你可以把事情做成,你是个人才。”听完了以后是不是有点感觉了?就有感觉了。

我讲的好像是在讲道,但实际上是在讲一个课,叫做享受劳碌的果实。第一点就是要有结果,第二点是什么呢?你做的结果是什么?第一点,做事要把事做成,有结果,一定要从小事开始。 第二点做事就是把东西搞到有条理。哎呀,我怎么像湖北人似的,湖北人说话就是“搞一搞”,什么都“搞一搞”,搞点这个搞点那个。东北人说话则是“整一整”,整一点这个整一点那个。现在搞一搞,把东西整理得有条理,是不是?你知道这个人做事享受不享受,这是个很神奇的事情。神奇在哪里呢?我告诉你,是因为没有人喜欢混乱。因为,当你完成了一件事,它就开始变得有条理,这就叫做事儿。做事的结果是什么呢?就是做到事情有条理。 天地空虚混沌,看到的就是一团乱麻。人活着,整个就是活在空虚混沌里。财务一团糟,身体状况也一团糟。一直到死,也没见过,也没搞明白,把事整到有条理是什么样的,他不知道啊。我要告诉你,你得知道,有条理,不是调理身体的调理,而是把事调理到有条理。你知道,当人一看到环境这么好,就会觉得真好。

前几天,我们有一个朋友去他姨家。他住在他儿子家,他儿子家里整的井井有条,东西看着可干净了。他儿子是我训练的,把东西整理得井井有条。同样是政府租屋,就叫做公屋,新加坡的百分之七八十都住公屋,便宜。但是,人家的屋子里整得井井有条,设计、改造,再设计、再改造。结果,他们现在住的地方,已经经过了四个版本的改造。第一个版本不满意,拆了。第二个版本也不太满意,拆了。第三个版本,哎,挺好。第四个版本,哇,老好。 结果他妈去他姨那儿去看去了,别问是谁的姨,哎哟,那屋子里头那个脏啊,哎哟我的天哪,就剩下一条能走路的道了,都是东西堆的,看着就闹心啊。那我问你,活在这样的生活环境里头,他能好啊,是不是?好不了。咱们大家都要知道,一看那环境是个混乱的环境。你啊,脑袋不太好使,体力也不太行。是不是?因为这环境都是你整的嘛,你得开始调整。你如果说是这个都整不好,就睡觉那么点地方都整不好,你整啥呀?是吧?这人就白活了啊。所以我得劝大家,是不是先把生活环境整好啊? 您像我这种人,我们家的租客,租的都是我的地方,那当然了收房租,收房租不挺好吗。租客都忍受不了那个地方的混乱。是不是啊?然后这屋子脏不拉几的。然后有人打电话我要看房子,那你就去看。要不要?不要。第二天我要来看房子,哎呀,我不要啊,太脏了。

哎,看了一百个没有一个人租,我得跟你讲,那我就累死了。那我告诉你,这个东西是不再混乱,是条条有理,整得非常的整洁。我们家那个出租屋的洗衣机比你自己用的洗衣机都干净。你信不信?可能你不信啊。 板板正正,就是这个词儿。那咋整的?是我干活干出来的。我告诉你,我们家那出租屋住过的,再找别人的房子去租,费劲。为啥费劲?它看着就是干净啊,再看别的看不上了。所以我们家出租客一住住好多年,也不怎么换。我起房租了,他也不换。你说我活儿是多了还是少了?我活儿少了呀,是不是? 那东西叫各从其类。井井有条,干干净净。那我得给你说一句词儿﹐你得知道,记下来,垃圾吸引垃圾。听明白了吗?你在那堆一小堆垃圾。哎,过几天你就发现是一大堆垃圾。就是政府也是这样,在那一个地方堆一小堆垃圾,过几天就变一大堆,受不了,真的垃圾吸引垃圾,那才奇怪。 我整一个垃圾般的出租房,就吸引垃圾般的租客,那才邪门呢。是不是?那我就不能够容忍一丁点儿的垃圾,因为一丁点儿的垃圾,就吸一小堆的垃圾,一小堆垃圾就吸成一大堆的垃圾,那才有意思。为啥?它老保持干净。是不是?那这就是环境整洁代表着人头脑里的整洁。

为什么呢?因为人头脑里头这么乱,这都受不了啊,我真的受不了了。怎么着,看着了没有,看着了一个新的环境,一个干干净净、井井有条、板板正正的环境。听明白了吗?这就是在脑子里都开始产生了活儿了。是不是?有活儿了没有?有活儿,反正我们家的活儿是干不完的。我爸活着的时候就跟我姐夫讲,十一到了啊,把这活干了啊。五一要到了啊,把这活干了啊。完了,出去玩儿,又泡汤了。五一过完了十一,十一过完了五一,我姐夫就说了,你们家的活儿怎么这么多?你们家的活儿干不完呐。为啥呢?我爸爸爱干净。 你别说我爸爸我妈妈都很勤劳,就把这种东西整得至少干净,虽然是小时候穷,但是干净,所以我就继承了我爸我妈的优点。继承我爸的优点就是,老有干不完的活儿,老是看着这块不对给干了,那块不对给干了,东西就不再混乱了。那东西不再混乱了,住的都感觉赏心悦目。看着就爽啊,看着就很舒爽的感觉。怎么来的舒爽?享受劳碌的果实。 干活干完了以后一看,哎呀,真好啊。哎呀,这个太好了啊。所以我就喜欢干活。你说这事儿,你说上哪说理,我就喜欢干活。所以你要跟我在一起的话,那是有干不完的活儿。干完了以后,哎呀,看着就可舒服了。后来我发现,这个像我这样的人就吸引我这样的人。我这样的人,我周围的好多都是,他不干活他就难受。 干活这事儿是脑力和体力的完美结合。咱们把这个房子要出租,当然了,你有房子可以出租。那还是过去这些年,干活干出来的嘛,是吧?创造了很多的价值。那你就把这房子整好,这就是为什么我整的东西,我整得还是挺好。后来就练了很多的本事,最重要的本事就是出租屋装修,不再混乱。我问你怎么可能不享受呢?

这个做人啊,做人最重要的功能就是做事。你要想做事做到有结果,你就得把事做到各从其类,井井有条,有什么结果?东西不是变得更加混乱了,是东西变得更加整洁了。我又在讲《创世记》了啊,又讲《创世记》第一章,如果有人能学得透,你了不得了。那眼睛看到的东西都不是好的。你会怎么样?老师,我眼睛肿了,老师我眼睛疼。老师我眼睛红了,其实我跟你讲,眼睛是一个很属灵的东西。所以你看到什么,就得着什么,看到不好的,就得着不好的。 你说,我一看这么乱啊,这么乱有活儿了。哎呀,好几天没干活儿,身上的筋骨都不太舒服。哎呀,终于有活儿可以舒展舒展了。我容忍不了混乱,我不是看到混乱我就闹心,我看到混乱,我就看到了创造的机会。大家一定要知道,干活是恩膏,一定要知道创造完了那种喜乐,和创造之前看着就闹心,那是完全不同的两回事。 你可能吃了一个满汉全席,吃完了,吃的时候好吃,吃完了以后往床上一躺,其实没啥意思。吃完了就完了。那第二天发生了啥事儿?大家都知道,那满汉全席就都进到马桶里去了。大概就这么个过程,是不是?但是你一看到混乱,你把它干掉。然后怎么着?哎哟,那舒服的感觉,可以随着你很久很久啊。就是咱们大家,很多人还不知道这种感觉是啥感觉啊。可能你听我讲完了以后,你练几把你就知道了。

我一看这混乱啊,改掉,给它搞一搞,整一整。一看到这地方不对,给它搞一搞。我这活儿多啊。你知道咱们这些服务器网线滴嘞嘟噜的,那个电源线、网线,USB的线,又滴嘞嘟噜的,看着就跟蜘蛛网似的。然后你一下手一碰,这个不行了,那儿不行了,就经常不行。我就把那网线给它连的跟那个帅哥的头发丝儿似的。是不是啊?整整它,搞一搞。 看到混乱了吗?看到了。看到机会了吗?看到机会了。天生我才必有用,是不是?不是今生把酒须尽欢,天生我才必有用。是看到了一堆的混乱,不是喝杯小酒就解决问题。把你的手伸出来,一碰不行,这东西一碰都死机啊。哎哟,这一顿折腾啊,连脑袋带手啊,这就画图,这么干,这么做迁移,迁移到这儿,迁移到那儿,就这么干。结果一折腾,折腾了快一个月,干净了。 然后那天就给我所牧养的几个小牧者,我就说你看,来给你拍张照,这是我做的。哎哟,那个心里头美滋滋的感觉,然后再夸我几句,哎哟,我觉得心里头那个舒服啊,是不是?哎呀,开心,为啥呢?因为我看到了问题。我看到了问题我就去解决问题,解决了问题有了结果,东西就不再混乱,那就是我创造的结果,比吃满汉全席然后拉一泡满汉全席的屎那是舒服多了,是不是?

那可是持续舒服。我说你跟我一起来来来,他说干啥去,我说你一起来,来看看。哎呀我没时间,我生拉硬拽,给带到我那地方一看,哎呀真的挺好。他可能也没看见混乱,被解决之前的混乱。他只看到了一个结果,反正挺好。是不是?这就是眼光。 当我看到那教会,属灵光景很荒凉,不行,不能够容忍,要建就建造一个充满神荣耀的教会。结果怎么着?现在怎么看怎么好。我看着好。有一些牧师他就看不得我好,他一看,你干成这样我怎么就干不成?生气了,那跟我没关系。 创造会带来享受的感觉,这就是享受劳碌的果实。这回明白了,不是凭着感觉,我们看到极其混乱,空虚混沌,渊面黑暗,那个感觉是不好的。但是如果你没有创造,你没有做事儿,它就继续空虚混沌,继续感觉不好。所以我告诉你,感觉是创造出来的。我这个感觉都是我创造出来的,我把东西整对的。

所以大家知道吗?来了一个人找你,有忧郁症、失眠、心里难受,哎呦,他家那个脏啊。然后前几天吐痰吐了一个多礼拜,忧郁症就是懒啊。我听他的牧者跟我讲,老师像这样的事怎么释放,怎么牧养,怎么弄?我说简单,让他把环境整好,别整天在哪里光释放,光带着他祷告,是吧?那得懒得啥样啊。 然后我说你拍张照,一拍,哎呦我的天哪,他整理完了,我得凭着信心说比以前好多了,但是照着我的标准,哎呦我天哪,那家伙垃圾堆的,全是包裹。累啊,是不是?所以说,我训练的牧者怎么释放你?推着你干活啊。你如果是个勤劳的人,爱干活的人,把东西整理干净,很难得忧郁症的,怎么可能得忧郁症呢?怎么可能难受呢?享受还来不及呢? 大家好不好,相信我说的话,你会成为一个享受生活的人。这是我的宣告,我凭着信心宣告,我怎么说,神会怎么成就,你要相信这个。咱们就说过去这一个礼拜你干啥了?过去这一个月你干啥了?除了把东西整混乱,是不是这样?吃的东西都挺板正的,是吗?最后出来的结果都是烂糊糊的,一坨一坨的,还有点臭味儿。

所以咱们是啥人?虽然我也吃东西,我也拉,是个正常人。但是,我心里都有别的事儿,我可以把我所生活的环境整理得井井有条。你说那我没有时间呢。我说那时间哪儿去了?我时间都用来写笔记了,白写了。是不是?写完了环境还那么脏,那能行吗?不是让你写笔记啊,那笔记是让你把你脑袋里头整干净,把你脑袋里的东西梳理整洁,你脑袋里装的乌烟瘴气的,它很难受啊,是不是? 所以看问题怎么看,我一看这人,哎哟,据我所知,忧郁症那是一个很严重的心理疾病。得忧郁症的人心里很难受,没有事儿就习惯性的难受,天天难受。痛苦的不得了,你得知道忧郁症是何等痛苦的疾病,就是难受。你说有吃有喝也难受。现在把脑子里的垃圾除掉,把你环境里的垃圾除掉,你看到这些东西,你眼光是好的,这是创造的机会,这是整理的机会,这是干活的机会,干活就是个恩典。你说老师我没有办法,那我不教你吗?我教你。 所以我们当中那个牧者就带着他下面的那些同工,就训练他怎么整理收纳。环境这么脏,脑袋里的多脏啊,那笔记能进到脑袋里去吗?进不去。把脑袋里的垃圾整干净,把环境里的垃圾整干净,你活着的感觉,这种享受的感觉是你创造的结果,是你劳动和创造的结果。我说的道理是很直白的,是不是啊?你想活在空虚混沌中谁好得了啊?谁都好不了。

养成做事儿有计划的习惯。你怎么享受啊?这做事儿得有结果,怎么才能有结果?得有计划,你眼睛看到了现在的光景和你整完的光景。看到了头,也看到了尾,结果脑袋里一看,东西是这么收纳的,脑袋里一看,东西应该是这样的。怎么办?从你现在看到的混乱,和想看到的结果,这个过程得有一段计划。第一天干啥,第二天干啥,第三天干啥,第四天干啥,第五天干啥,第六天干啥,然后干完了神说:啊,看着甚好,是不是? 这不是吗?你读《圣经》,如果读英文的,你就会看到这个是好的,good,到最后是very good,听明白了吗?到了最后是甚好。哇,做成了。哎呀,甚好,是不是?那神的计划完成了。 所以养成做事情有计划的习惯,别一口想吃个胖子,一口把鱼吞进去,刺儿留在嗓子里了。那鱼啊,我告诉你,鱼咬钩怎么咬的,一看这食物是好的,咔一口吞进去了。一口吃个胖子,一口被人吊上去了,第二天当天晚上就上到餐桌了。是不是?第二天,那鱼就进到马桶里去了。

养成做事有计划的好习惯,这事儿只需观察,他的问题是啥,它应该怎么做,然后计划啥呢,计划我要做什么。咱们就说我要做什么啊?我要把我的家整干净,我要把这个项目做成一个结果,叫做智能工厂智能制造。项目做成,整个工厂都是智慧工厂。是不是?这全得靠计划啊。 养成做事有计划的习惯,别想一下子就做成,一下子肯定做不成。所以一下子这个词是个很负面的词,所以养成做事有计划的习惯。那要讲太多,所以要有计划。怎么计划?第一步、第二步,它是一层一层垒上去的。如果底下的根基没有做好,上面的没法干。我得告诉你啊,不管你是穷,穷可以干净,你还是富有,富有也可以干净。你东西多可以干净,东西少也可以干净,全是在你脑袋里的创造。这个创造一定是有计划,一步一步一步。 你想装修,是不是?装修你不得把这个屋子整好它。你以为那么容易啊?那么容易,那些老多计划,哪一个地方没整对它都闹心。水,电,地板,天花板,墙,厨,床,这些东西哪一样东西都得在计划当中。计划做什么,然后第二个计划怎么做。光看着那结果了,光看结果有啥用啊,啥也不会做,最后一做就泡汤,一做就烂尾,不可能享受的。其实享受就是享受整个做计划实施的过程。

做计划一看这个地方没计划到,它肯定出事,出事了以后就学功课了,是不是?下次再做同样的事,它不就不出事了吗?那我问你,是个好事,是个坏事?是个好事。我们很多人光想要那个结果,就不想脚踏实地,那才要命呢。所以这个不想脚踏实地,做事没有计划,光想要那结果,你说这他不是把事儿都做烂尾了吗? 你想想看,养孩子从出生,哎哟,幸亏小孩出生以后长得可爱。如果不可爱,哎哟,我跟你讲,那把孩子养大多痛苦啊。小孩,哎呀,那肉嫩嫩的,看着挺好玩,光整天玩孩子了,是不是? 那把孩子养大,养大这是不是一个事儿?这是一个事儿。那把他养成一个什么样?把他养成一个好吃懒做,做事儿没有计划,没有条理,光想要结果不想下功夫。哎呀,我的天哪,这孩子大了就成了你的心头那块肉刺,不是心头肉。哎呀这个闹心啊,孩子找工作闹心,孩子嫁人也闹心,娶媳妇也闹心,哎呀,我的天哪,从心头肉变成心头的肉刺,闹心。 为啥?那他不是你训练的吗?是不是你训练的?所以我就不太喜欢,我真的受不了人们没有计划的习惯。没有计划,因为一拍脑袋就光想着赚钱了的,就忘了赔钱怎么办。光想着赚钱了,没有计划。你计划你还不得算计算计,这东西如果这样如果那样,怎么办呢?最后干烂尾了,还得收拾烂摊子。然后你说老师我很痛苦,那你不痛苦谁痛苦啊?你这么往痛苦里头走,那你怎么可能享受呢?

有的人考公务员,使劲考,啥也不干,就只考,考公务员一考考五年。考到了公务员,一个月两千,然后又分配到外县。哎呀,这个闹心,我问你怎么活?一个月两三千块钱。哎呀,我天,想想都可悲。那咋活?我是不知道咋活。两三千块钱怎么活?闹心呐。那你干啥来的?没想。 你比如说一直想考编制,那你就在家待着考编制。那是路吗?那如果你考一年考上了,在家待一年OK了。那如果考十年,在家待十年怎么着?从二十几待到三十几啊?想着不就闹心了吗?是不是?那怎么办?咱就说如果我考四年,那我在家待四年啊?就不知道考研考四年,考研考五年的大把,傻不拉几的,受不了。 你要问我,我怎么办?那我不这么干。我一算,因为哪年能考上不知道。你知道吗?你不知道吧?你问我,我知道吗?我也不知道。那你有信心,我还没那个信心呢?明年,我有信心明年肯定考得上,明年考不上怎么办? 一边训练自己的性格,一边训练自己做事的能力,一边知道自己可以谋生,是不是?自己可以谋生啊。你不谋生咋整啊,我给你讲洗厕所,怎么的?洗厕所赚钱挺多的,挺好。 我就在想,这人没有计划都成习惯了。所以你会发现,你跟我讲话,你也挺累我也挺累啊,咱俩老一整就岔劈了啊。那为啥呢?就是,我想的那是啥呢?他如果是这样该怎么办?如果是那样该怎么办?然后,你呢就光想着能干成了。是不是? 一考研考五年,一考编考五年,一考公考五年,那五年都不成废物了吗?做事要有计划,做什么都要有计划。计划啥?计划这事应该怎么整,这样怎么整,那样怎么整。是不是?一看就知道结果嘛。

你把事情做成,你肯定不会嘛。谁生下来不是个光着屁股的小胖小子小胖姑娘,生下来肯定没穿衣服,不会自己穿衣服,生下来一个字都不认识,没有一个小孩生下来就认识字的。是不是?你给他一个字,他认识啥?啥也不认识。你说我胎教,胎教教完了他也不认识。你可能认识那个字,妈妈认识,孩子不一定认识。生来都那样。 哪一个东西不是你后天学的?我问你,哪一个东西是你生来就会的?哪一个东西不是你后来学的?都是后来学的。所以说养成学习的习惯,这个学习如果很痛苦,为什么?因为学习不知道要干啥。但是你要想解决问题,要想把一个事情解决了,不管那个事情是找一个白马王子,还是找一个黑驴王子,它是一件事儿。 不管是砌一堵墙,还是做个橱,还是把家里整干净,都是一件事儿,这件事儿就牵扯到你不会的。那你不会的,你不得学吗?你不会的你就得学啊。所以养成学习,享受学习的好习惯,为什么?因为我学这个我要解决这个问题。从不会到会,会了以后,哎呀一做就好,一做就成,怎么可能不享受呢? 所以有的时候我就凡尔赛一把,哎呀,我跟你讲,我是一个非常会生活的人。做学生时,我享受做学生;后来做老师,我享受做老师;再后来成为牧师,我享受做牧师;做编程时,我享受做编程;做管理,也享受做管理。哎呀,我这一生真是都是享受,老好了。学习嘛,是不是?我说,这就是我自己的学习。养成学习的习惯,没干过的都是不会的。好不好?享受学习。

那你享受学习,我不享受咋办?坏了,有的人就不享受。那为啥不享受,我做过详细的研究。我研究这事儿,研究到什么程度呢?这个学习和做事,有计划还是看问题,这些东西给它归纳起来叫做信心。所以第六点:养成有信心的好习惯。你看我这一篇课讲的啊,一开头就讲了,其实就是信心。 小样的,我整不了你了,是不是?我今天整不了你,明天整;明天整不了你,后天整;今年不行我就明年,明年不行我就子子孙孙整下去。到现在还没子孙呢,还要子子孙孙整下去,我就不信整不了你,就开始又做一个有信心的人。不管摆在你面前有多大的山,在你面前,就变成一个小石头。不管摆在你面前的问题有多大,你的问题,在你信心的里面都要被移去,因为神要与你同工。那山是怎么挪走的?是用你的信心推动了神的手。 神要把这座山挪走,最后你的事情做成,不是因为你自己的能力,因为我们的能力永远比我们的山小。但是因为我们有信心,所以神的能力在我们身上。如果神的能力在我们身上,怎么可能活得不好?在我的信心里面,大家在财务上都要有极大的突破。为什么?你们成为一个做事享受,享受劳碌果实的人。劳碌的果实其中有一个回报就是财务,财务一定会好起来!这回明白了吧? 所以我们弟兄姐妹,养成有信心的好习惯,那就是什么东西在你面前,都是小事儿,都是小样的。所以忍耐和坚持叫做信心。

我曾经看过一个短片叫《死亡爬行》,大家看过了没有?电影里,有一个人后背背着一个人,在地上爬,我看着看着看哭了。因为我就是一个这样的人,坚持到底。我的神就好像一个教练一样在我旁边,不断地给我加油打气。Keep up,don't give up。不断地训练,后来爬到终点的时候,发现自己爬了一百一十码,本来以为背着的是一个一百二十斤的人,然后被背着的那个人,告诉他的老师教练,老师我一百六十斤,老师傻眼儿了。 厉害!我告诉你,在你的信心里面没有胜不过去的。你今天可以放弃一把,明天可以失败一把,但是你要在信心里面坚持忍耐,那是最好的享受。因为不坚持,不忍耐,不得胜,很难受,已经难受得够了,很难受,坚持忍耐也难受,但是在得胜的时候,得胜的喜乐会充满我们,神就会成为你的力量。 所以在建造神荣耀教会的路上,都是做成了以后,得胜的喜乐充满我,那继续渴望更深、更大的得胜,好啊,是不是?反正人活着已经这么痛苦了,我把这同样的痛苦用在坚持和忍耐上,我不在那仰卧起坐,一会儿躺平一会儿又起来了,一会儿躺平了一会儿又起来了。 爬起来,担起自己的责任。把事情做好,学习很难没关系,要记住教会是你背后的资源,神要让你成为我的恩典,最后整来整去把我给训练了。这就是我要告诉大家的,享受劳碌的果实。没有结果很痛苦,没有结果的日子已经很多年了,但是开始做一个有结果的人,结出你做事的果子。激励你了没有?如果你被激励了,就跟那《死亡爬行》里的。Keep up,don't give up。刚强起来,不在懒惰。不再做一个宗教人士,做一个有神形像、把事儿做成、有信心的人!了不得啊。

好多年前那些离开教会的人,他们虽然走了,有的时候我碰到他们,他们给我一个评价,我觉得这个评价,是一个非常好的评价。他说,老师,你想要的,你就一定会要得到,你不得着就不罢休,你是这样的人。我说,你说的是对的。去照着这个做吧,你也会享受一辈子的。 这就是我们,这就是华人命定神学的性格,这就叫做信心。从今天开始,不断地训练自己,跌倒了再爬起来,做不成再坚持一段时间。你一定可以活出神的形像,尤其是教会在你后面,在支持你。 直到今天我得告诉大家,我多么想再多开发一点课件,开发一些训练,脚踏实地的训练,但是能力有限,虽然着急,也还是有计划的一点一点的推进。不会学习的要变成会学习的,不会做事的要变成会做事的。这里就是一个训练人的地方。直到我见神的面,得到神的夸奖。阿们! 愿神祝福大家。
