1.死＝新しい世界への出発

2勝利の人生

坂村真民さん「冬が来たら」

冬が来たら冬のことだけを考えよう

冬を遠ざけようとしないで

むしろすすんで冬のたましいにふれ

冬のいのちにふれよう

冬がきたら冬だけがもつ

深さときびしさと静けさを知ろう

冬は孤独な私に与えられた宝の壺

1.Death: Departure to the next place

2Cor 12:4 how he was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

John14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

2 The life of victory

A.  Paul fought the good fight

B. Paul have finished the race,

Phil 3:13-14　Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,  I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

C.Paul have kept the faith.

A poem by Shinmin Sakamura “When Winter comes”

When winter comes, let’s only think about winter

Don’t try to keep winter away

I would rather go ahead and experience the spirit of winter.

Let’s experience winter life

When winter comes, only winter lasts

Let’s know the depth, harshness and stillness

Winter is a treasure pot given to me who is lonely.
