Excellence in life is not just a dream 卓越的人生不是夢 Excellence in life is not just a dream Mindy 龔明娣 姐妹 生命河靈糧堂 ROLCC July 22, 2018

卓越的人生不是夢 / Excellence in life is not just a dream 「因為他的怒氣不過是轉眼之間．他的 恩典乃是一生之久．一宿雖然有哭泣、 早晨便必歡呼。」 ﹝詩篇 30: 5﹞   For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. (Psalm 30:5)

什麼是〝卓越〞? 都表現得很卓越。”- 金恩博士 What is “ Excellence” ? “如果我沒法做偉大的事, 我能把小事 都表現得很卓越。”- 金恩博士 “If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.” Martin Luther king Jr. 什麼是〝卓越〞?

哲學大師亞里士多德 哲學大師亞里士多德曾說，卓越 (excellence)不是一種行為，而是一種習惯。美好的生活是一點一滴累積起来的。(From good to excellence) Philosopher Aristotle once said, Excellence is not an action, but a habit. The good life is built up bit by bit – from good to excellent.

Because David holistic love, holistic experience God's love. 為什麼大衛被稱「合神心意的人」? Why David was called “Man is after God’s own Heart” ? (Act 13:22) 因為大衛全人愛神, 全人經歷神的愛。 Because David holistic love, holistic experience God's love.

默想/安靜時刻,明白神的心意 / Solitude time Daily 「我看萬事盡都有限．惟有你的命令、極其寬廣。我何等愛慕你的律法、終日不住地思想。你的命令常存在我心裡、使我比仇敵有智慧。」詩 119:96-98 “To all perfection I see a limit; but your commands are boundless. Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long. Your commands make me wiser than my enemies, for they are ever with me.” (Psalm 119:96-98)

「你們得救在乎歸回安息．你們得力在乎平靜安穩．」以賽亞書 30:15 “……..In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength.” (Isaiah 30:15) 尋求衪為我們生命 所定的方向和目標。

「他從一切的急難中、把我救出來．我的眼睛也看見了我仇敵遭報。」詩 54:7 “For he has delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes..” (Psalm 54:7) 我們要貫注於上帝 在我們以往生命中的所有成就。

聽神對我們的心說話, 是一個莊嚴的操練, 若一直不停的唱獨角戲, 我們將會錯失那得力的機會。

**大衛解決問題和創造不同/ How does David solve problems and create a difference? 「 對跟隨他的人說、我的主 、乃是耶和華的受膏者、我在耶和華面前萬不敢伸手害他、因他是耶和華的受膏者. 」﹝撒上 24: 6﹞ He said to his men, "The LORD forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the LORD'S anointed, or lift my hand against him; for he is the anointed of the LORD.“ (1 Samuel 24:6)

「我主、我王。 你為何聽信人的讒言、說、大衛想要害你呢」 ﹝撒上 24: 8-9﹞ "My lord the king!" "Why do you listen when men say, 'David is bent on harming you'? (1 Samuel 24:8-9) 「願耶和華在你我中間判斷是非、在你身上為我伸冤．我卻不親手加害於你。 」 ﹝撒上 24: 12﹞ “May the LORD judge between you and me. And may the LORD avenge the wrongs you have done to me, but my hand will not touch you.” (1 Samuel 24:12)

掃羅放聲大哭,對大衛說、 「 你比我公義．因為你以善待我、 我卻以惡待你。」 ﹝撒上 24: 17﹞ “You are more righteous than I,” he said. “You have treated me well, but I have treated you badly. (1 Samuel 24:17)

Willing heart, stepped on the break 願意的心, 踩在破口上 / Willing heart, stepped on the break 扶持有需要的人群, 在別人的弱點上, 看到自已的責任 。 「我靠著那加給我力量的，凡事都能做。」(腓四13) “ I can do everything through him who gives me strength.” (Philippians 4:13)

「我小子阿、我為你們再受生產之苦、直等到基督成形在你們心裡．」 影響團隊中的領袖去創造一群熱心的團隊 / Influence leaders to create a group of passionate team - 效法耶穌 - 效法保羅 「我小子阿、我為你們再受生產之苦、直等到基督成形在你們心裡．」 (加拉太書 4:19) My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you, (Galatians 4:19)

也要交託那忠心能教導別人的人」。 「你在許多見證人面前聽見我所教訓的、 保羅影響提摩太的生命進入更豐盛 去教托忠心的人。 (提後2:2) “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others.” (2 Timothy 2:2) 保羅影響提摩太的生命進入更豐盛 去教托忠心的人。

Equipping yourself, creating difference 三. 裝備自已, 創造不同/ Equipping yourself, creating difference 1) 改變你的思惟 / Change your thinking 在問題面前束手無策 心靈封閉, 觀念陳舊消極 只說不做 看結果做事 在機會中專注問題 在失敗面前找藉口 不可能 斤斤計較, 目光短淺 痛苦工作, 為賺錢而工作 我辦不到, 我沒有資金 想辦法解決問題 頭腦開放, 觀念嶄新積極 說完立刻有行動 看趨勢做事 在問題中專注機會 在失敗面前找原因 一切都可能 不計一時利益, 目光遠大 熱愛工作, 工作樂趣同享 我怎樣才能辦到, 我想辦 法分散資金或少資金

2) 時間管理 / 3) 健康的身體 / 4) 健全的財務計劃 / 5) 和諧的家庭關係 / 6) 不斷創新 追求卓越 / Time Management 3) 健康的身體 / Health Management 4) 健全的財務計劃 / Financial Management 5) 和諧的家庭關係 / Harmonious Family Relationship 6) 不斷創新 追求卓越 / Be innovative & excellent

四. 彼此相愛 / Love one Another 「我賜給你們一條新命令、乃是叫你們彼此相愛．我怎樣愛你們、你們也要怎樣相愛。"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” 你們若有彼此相愛的心、眾人因此就認出你們是我的門徒了。 」 (約翰福音 13:34-35) “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.“ (John 13:34-35)

“機會” 就是新的事, 因此90%的人不知道, 也看不見。 祗有具有獨立思考能力, 目光遠大和頭腦開放的人才會看見。

Excellence in life is not just a dream 「卓越的人生不是夢」 Excellence in life is not just a dream Vision + willingness + Actions = results
