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.
