Turn “Need to” Into “Want to”
“Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope: and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” (Romans 5:3-5 WEB)
In life, many things happen to us, and how events affect us is how we view and attach meaning to them.
The apostle Paul had this revelation, and he taught the church to view suffering in a new light—to rejoice in suffering because it produces perseverance, proven character, and hope.
He knew how to reframe the undesirable things in life to become something that he wanted.
Suffering produces pain, but Paul reframed it to mean the training of his perseverance, character, and hope. Something bad became something precious and valuable.
We can apply this mindset to anything in life so that our trust is always in God and not in our self-efforts.
For example, if you see yourself putting on weight, your flesh may cause you to think, “I must go on a diet and exercise more so that I can lose weight.” This way of viewing the situation makes you reactive—on the defensive posture instead of wholeheartedly choosing to do something because you love it. When something is viewed as a burdensome chore, you will struggle with it.
Instead, why not detach your goal from the activity and just focus on the enjoyment of the beneficial action? You are not trying to exercise to lose weight—you are already young, healthy, slim, fit, and strong. Jesus paid for you to freely receive health and healing by faith.
When you exercise, there doesn’t have to be a goal. You can reframe your mindset and exercise just because you find it fun and enjoyable. “I like to run and feel my body challenging its limits. At the same time, I get time to enjoy the beautiful scenery that God has made, and listen to the Holy Spirit speaking to me.”
Wow, just like that, exercise without needing to gain anything from it becomes something desirable, just like the enjoyable activity of playing games for fun. Guess what, you will still reap the fitness benefits of exercise when you do it.
This method of refraining things is important because we don’t want to fall into the deception of getting things done by self-effort. Whatever is done by the flesh apart from God’s blessing has to be tiresomely maintained by the flesh.
If you’re struggling financially, and you’re always thinking, “I need to work so that I can earn money,” you’ll be perpetually stressed out, your performance at work will de-prove, and the self-reliance hinders God’s gracious provision and favor that must be received by faith.
No, you’re not working to earn money. You are a child of the wealthiest King of Heaven and earth—money is not something worth worrying about. You are always well-supplied and never lacking. God’s blessing makes you truly wealthy in all ways and He adds no sorrow nor trouble to it.
“Yahweh’s blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it.” (Proverbs 10:22 WEB)
Instead of feeling forced to work, work because you enjoy it, and because the people you deal with at work will benefit greatly from having Jesus as Lord. You would love to show them His glory through your words and deeds. When you think this way, you detach the goal of earning money from the action of working, and it just becomes an activity that you enjoy and look forward to—it becomes something very meaningful that you can be passionate about.
When you do your best at work to shine brightly for God, to showcase Christ in you, you will still be paid, and very likely, your job performance will improve. The state of mind will change from one that’s dragging your feet to work, to one that runs in, excited to embark on the next task for Jesus’ sake so that more may glorify our Father in Heaven.
Many times, God’s word says “repent”, and I agree that we can change our mind about all the ways we think negatively. Reacting by the flesh, we will always try to compensate for some lacking area by doing hard work, choosing man’s way instead of God’s way. To see a positive transformation, all it takes is a little reframing according to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We don’t have to act like homeless orphans fending for themselves on the streets. We have a Father, and we are His beloved children. When your flesh tells you that you “need to” do something, reframe the whole thing by seeing it through Jesus’ finished work at the cross and what that sacrifice has accomplished for you. See how you can proactively “want to” do the task. Rest from fleshly self-efforts, and actively receive the supply of grace for every need!

跟Kuan賣純素墨西哥塔克的日子❤️ #為何我選擇不吃動物 #理想與責任🔥⠀
昨天第一次跟 @wufumade 出去擺攤檔一日店長,心得就是⋯ 「愛」!⠀
從之前第一次自己買來吃,跟老闆聊聊後,我就知道,這個人跟我的頻率一樣! ⠀
⠀
工作與夢想,生活與理想,雖然過程中都有一些現實得面對,但當你做你認為是對的事,目標不是利益而是意義!🔥 你就算累還是開心!⠀
⠀
我們兩個都吃植物性飲食(純素Vegan )沒有特別複雜的原因,也從來不強迫別人一定要同意或做到。但我們想透過行動分享一個生活理念:「我們所做的一切不是為了自己,而是為了比我們更大的原因:愛,意義」🌍❤️ ⠀
⠀
你知道嗎?人不用吃動物,一樣可以活很健康很快樂啊!👻🤗⠀
當然要看你嘴巴裡塞的是垃圾還是原始健康食物⋯
但我只能強調:我!非常!不!缺營養!(醫生最近測試我的血液說是他這幾年看過最猛的數字!果然,不用他說我自己知道我的活力用不完!🤣
⠀
我從開始不吃動物的產品後常被別人說「妳好可憐,好不方便,好多限制」🙈⠀
但我聽到都會笑:其實是相反的,我超自由,因為這個是我的「選擇」🦋
⠀
而我有自律去執行我最深的理念:愛環境,不傷害別人 🐥💕
而能透過吃素或其他行為做到,這個很給力啊!💪🏽⠀
選擇⋯⠀⠀
👉🏽 意識自己與大環境的連結⠀
👉🏽 對自己的行為與後果負責 ⠀
👉🏽 戒掉藉口,給自己能力去執行 ⠀
👉🏽 改變自己!再來激勵別人嘗試改變!⠀
⠀
⠀
Anyway 講那麼多⋯ 鼓勵你們從小的改變開始。一切是過程,我們不追求完美,但追求學習,追求開放,嘗試,進步!⠀
⠀
🥁 10月24-25日我應該還會再次跟 @wufumade 出去擺攤 (高雄衛武營)
🌮️ 歡迎大家追蹤 Kuan @wufumade 他平常在高雄各種市集擺攤(愛河,Ikea,碼頭等等) ⠀
⠀
有機會我們再用最健康美味的食物分享我們的愛給你們啦!🤗🥰⠀
⠀
Happy Monday! ⠀
Love you! 我愛你們!⠀
🌱😘 ⠀

Vegan tacos with Kuan ❤️
#WhyIamHappyWithoutEatingAnimals #idealsAndResponsabilities 🔥
Yesterday, I went out with Kuan @wufumade to help sell vegan tacos, it was FUN!
The first time I bought Kuan’s food and talked to him, I knew straight away we click, we have the same frequency!
...Work, dream, life and ideals. 🦋
Both passionate and grateful for life, and while we face challenges in life like everyone, we still have so much energy and love to give.
Both of us eat a plant-based diet (vegan) for no fancy reasons, and we never force others to agree on our view or push others to become vegan. We simply believe that we can live well without animal products. 💕😊
We don’t want to cause more harm than we need to. It’s that simple. Whether it’s the animals, the environment, ourselves, or the future generation. We are all connected.
Simply put: for me eating plant based is not really about myself, it’s about something bigger. 🌍❤️🐶🐬🐛
Anyway... Everything is a process, I do not pursue perfection - BUT I strive for love, meaning and progress!
Ps: October 24-25th I’ll probably be helping out Kuan @wufumade again, at Weiwuyin kaohsiung. 😋 follow @wufumade to see his weekly location and street market updates!
Hope to see you soon!
One LOVE! 🦋❤️

【巴西頭 | New Video Out】
⠀⠀
這麼晚才cover這首,它還是洗腦神曲!⠀
完整版在Youtube,連結在首頁!!
⠀
大家還記得這首洗腦神曲嗎?
2017年時Despacito坐穩冠軍寶座長達8周,熱潮延燒全美及歐洲,並且持續在串流平台和Youtube締造驚人點閱記錄。⠀
拉丁奔放的雷鬼節奏,熱情、簡潔、重複、感染力強,旋律洗腦又好記,發行沒多久就在西語系國家大受好評,也登上多國冠軍,即使聽不懂歌詞的含義,依舊被洗腦,使人中毒!
⠀
我這麼晚才cover這首歌,真的不是個蹭流量的人,就是不想跟風那些最近火紅的什麼迫降什麼class的什麼歌(立刻打臉自己)
⠀
喜歡我的音樂的話,請訂閱我的Youtube頻道(林子安 AnViolin)!
如果喜歡我的cover,記得在Youtube按讚留言分享給家人朋友看,也可以在那邊留言跟我說想要聽我cover什麼作品。
歡迎大家在沒有下雨的週末到信義區香堤大道,聽cover歌曲的live版喔!詳細演出相關資訊,都會更新在限時動態! ⠀

Here comes my updated cover. Full video on Youtube, link in bio !
⠀
Do you guys remember this brainwashing song?
In 2017, Despacito swept major music charts worldwide for 8 weeks and created amazing records on streaming platforms and Youtube.
⠀
The melody is such typical Latin song, enthusiastic and passionate and so hooked that even people who don't understand the meaning of the lyrics, the song is literally brainwashing.
⠀
Feel free to come to Taipei Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Xinyi Plaza to enjoy more my live cover songs. Check it out on my Instagram stories! ⠀⠀
