Time to Harvest the Fruit in Our Lives

Many times during my training Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim has shared the story of the apple farmer with us.   After hearing the story, I always felt like I wanted to be a great apple farmer.  I wanted to work hard, and dedicate my life to produce a fruit that we can all be proud of.  Especially myself.  The same goes for cherries.


I didn't want to be the farmer that threw the seeds among rocks and expected cherries to grow.
I didn't want to be the farmer that planted seeds in dirt, but soon after got frustrated on how long it takes to grow a tree.
I didn't want to be the farmer, that sees the first cherry tree growing, but gets frustrated there is still no fruit.
I didn't want to be the farmer that finally gets a tree and sees cherries , but beats them down from the tree, and ruins them in the process.
I didn't want to be the farmer that lies under the cherry tree waiting for the cherries to fall into my mouth.
I want to be the patient cherry farmer that works hard, has a purpose and puts my heart and soul into accomplishing something very special in life, and can eventually see the fruits of my efforts.

Thank you Lord for giving us such a wonderful life.
Thank you Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim for striving to wake us up to the beauty around us.
Thank you for striving to give my appreciation and gratitude in my life.
I love this life and want to share it with others.


Please bless Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim with health, wisdom and strength to help many others in this world.  Thank you Lord and God Bless us all.

Snow White and the Huntsman

I love the way Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim helps us to analyze movies.  We recently saw the movie “Snow White and the Huntsman”.  I hadn’t heard much about it, and didn’t expect much.  But is was surprisingly good.


It started off  with the good king's wife dying, and he rescued a pretty woman from the evil enemy.  It looked like she was in dire need, but it was a setup, and they planted this lovely looking girl to capture the King's heart.  The plan worked and the King married her the next day and made her Queen.  That same evening, as the King was about to make love to her, she stabbed him with that big knife in the picture, and then she let her evil army in and they took over the empire.  Snow White, the king's little daughter was put into prison and held there for many years.  In the mean time the Evil Queen brought misery and death to the empire.

How often have you heard of someone being tempted by temptation, only to ruin their lives.  We as humans often succumb to the dark side:  power, sex and money.  Which one do you desire, and how far will you go for it?  That is the question that everyone in their life will face.

Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim helps us to find inner strength to fight temptation, and fight for what is good and right.  We need to train ourselves, and discipline ourselves, so we can control our emotions, and become the master of our lives.

Even though you have made bad decisions, and you may now be in a horrible situation, you need to know that God loves you and will forgive you.  Even in the most impossible situations, there is always hope.  Repent, and change your ways.  Generate love and help others.  Use your experiences as your fertilizer to make you a stronger person, and more dedicated to follow the light and do good in your life.  Never give up.  I love that energy.  I love when Snow White finally decided it was time to fight back against the evil queen and win.  No matter what, fight for what is right.  The movie ended in a very positively, and I like that.  Of course, I am an optimist.

With honor and respect.  :)

Are You Ready - Mind, Body, or Spirit?


Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim has some of the most incredible training programs.  She always emphasizes to be ready on all levels.  To do that, we have to discipline ourselves, and train hard everyday.  We have to adopt the warrior spirit and energy.  We have to learn to challenge ourselves and strive to be better everyday.  We have to learn to manage our energy and overcome tireness, laziness, fear, and temptation.  We have to be in control of our emotions, and not let anger and fear guide our decisions.  We have to meditate and become the master of our subconscious, to be able to kick Satan out, when he attacks us.  We have to be alert and ready anytime and anyplace, because we do not know when it comes.  Lets fight evil and be the warrior of our life and help and defend others.

Thank you Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim for your incredible teachingsWith honor and respect.  js!

An Incredible Rainbow Moon

I love the way Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim helps us to analyze movies.  We recently saw the movie “BattleShip”.  I hadn’t heard much about it, and didn’t expect much.  But is was surprisingly good.  It started off  about youth, arrogance, and ignorance, and quickly moved into an emergency situation of survival, death, and fear.  It showed that we are vulnerable, and that we can rise to the occasion.  It showed under extreme situations how we can grow, unify, and conquer.   How even in the most impossible situations, is it still possible.  I love that energy.  It also ended in a very positively, and I like that.  Of course, I am an optimist.  On the way home, the wind was blowing, the fog was moving in, and the temperature was dropping.  We looked up and there was a bright moon with a circular rainbow around it.  I had never seen that before.  I took a picture, but it really doesn’t capture how spectacular it was.



We were looking at the amazing moon, and all of a sudden Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim shouted out Ezekiel 1:28 from the Bible.  There was no bible around.  It was very dark.  Where did this come from?  This moon was very unexpected.  There was no planning.  Everything happened at the spur of the moment.  But what really happened?  I quickly  looked up the message in my bible app on my iPhone: “Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him.   This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. "



Thank you Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim, for all your incredible training, wisdom, and love.  I feel incredibly lucky that God brought me into your life.  May God bless you and protect you, and give us the courage, strength, and wisdom to be God’s soldiers through helping others, giving others hope, and doing positive deeds.
Jung Su!, Pilseng!
