Lesson from Pres. Ha-- Meeting 19 Feb 2009

1. Boost up my cardios by exercising at least 3 times a week.
2. Priority takes place as follows: job search > health and capability development>functions as a family member and friend. For the job search, 1) redefine what I wish to accomplish in life 2) find my talentsIn mission statement, put down things that I would like to achieve within 5 years (organize my talents). Put down scalable goals.
3. Learn how to lead a group meeting (be sensitive the atmosphere of the group and be considerate of the participants mental situation)
4. Read mission statement every morning.

Seed, fruit, honesty, process

I am responsible for my actions.
12
If you say, "But we knew nothing about this,"
does not he who weighs the heart perceive it?
Does not he who guards your life know it?
Will he not repay each person according to what he has done?

He wants me to be an honest man.

26 An honest answer
is like a kiss on the lips.

Things in life takes process. Rome wasn't built a day.

27 Finish your outdoor work
and get your fields ready;
after that, build your house.

Listen to God and parents

God wants me to be righteous (wise, right, being instructed, getting knowledge, true, disciplined, understanding)
Also, He wants me to listen to my parents and do not look down on them.

Lord, thanks for Your Words. Let me live today with wisdom, righteousness, etc.

19
Listen, my son, and be wise,
and keep your heart on the right path.

15 My son, if your heart is wise,
then my heart will be glad;

16 my inmost being will rejoice
when your lips speak what is right.

12 Apply your heart to instruction
and your ears to words of knowledge.

23 Buy the truth and do not sell it;
get wisdom, discipline and understanding.

26 My son, give me your heart
and let your eyes keep to my ways,

27 for a prostitute is a deep pit
and a wayward wife is a narrow well.

28 Like a bandit she lies in wait,
and multiplies the unfaithful among men.



22 Listen to your father, who gave you life,
and do not despise your mother when she is old.

24 The father of a righteous man has great joy;
he who has a wise son delights in him.

25 May your father and mother be glad;
may she who gave you birth rejoice!

Believe and obey, priority, and a stat

God wants me to believe His words and obey.

What are the areas of my life that I put higher priority above God?
1. Playing games 2. Porn 3. Myself ?

Missionary Esther mentioned that 90% of American Christians are no different than non American Christians. I was shocked. Where are the areas that I do the same? Sex, etc?

Lord, forgive me for the things that I've done. Let me be like you.

Devotional: Pleasure seeker=poverty

1. "He who loves pleasure will become poor; whoever loves wine and oil will never be rich."
I realized that I have been heading toward a wrong direction in life. I have been seeking for earthly pleasure such as porn and game. God wants me to quit those two. He loves me and He wants me back.

2. Lord, please let me be "he who pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor." Righteousness is the key in life. What should I do to become righteous? I pursue rightesouness and love! I pursue righteousness and love! I pursue righteousness and love!

3. "The slugggard's crafving will be the death of him, because his hands refuse to work. " I love work! I love work! I love work!

4. The proud and arrogant man=="Mocker" is his name; he behaves with overweening pride." I'm a humble man! No pride and arrogance will remain in my life.
