October T cube Time
Hi All,
Yes, its been a long time since anyone has submitted any encouragements for the body of Christ.
If you have learnt something recently, i encourage you to write something about it and give God the glory.
On the 6th Oct we had our T cube time, it was a time where the family are gathered in the presence of God, fellowshipping, worshipping and celebrating birthdays. I personally had a great time playing the games prepared by Aaron and Alan. Its not just the fun of the games that i enjoyed but just seeing the guys taking up responisibility in the tribe, that really warms my heart and i Thank God for His work in their lives.
I was especially glad to see Junwei joined us and enjoyed himself, praise God for it.
Here are some photos that we have taken during Tcube time. Enjoy!
Special thanks to Matthais and family for renting the function room.
During Worship i release a word that i sense its his message to us.
That We are friends of God.
What so special about being a friend of God?
The following passage explains to us.
To be a friend of God:
1. we need to obey his command Vs14
2. we changed our level of intimatcy with God from a servent to friend when we obey him. vs15a
3. We will learn the heart of God as we obey. vs15b
4. We will have lasting fruits in our lives, since its God that chose us and appointed us to be fruitful.vs16a
5. We will have favor with God. vs16b
6. Simply love each other in sacrificial love, just as the way Jesus loved us. vs12 & 17
The Holy Bible, New International Version. Pradis CD-ROM:Jn 15:12.
Jn 15:12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
Jn 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
Jn 15:14 You are my friends m if you do what I command.
Jn 15:15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
Jn 15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you p to go and bear fruit - fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
Jn 15:17 This is my command: Love each other.
I think its all so logical, If we want to follow Jesus command, we must first learn about Jesus love for us. So that we can love each other as he has loved us. If we don't know his perfect and sacrifical love, how can we love others as he loved us? We might end up trying to love people in our own ways which most of the time are flawed.
So my question is, have you learnt about the love of Jesus lately?
I am sure Jesus is always showing us he loves us in our daily lives, during our devotion time with him or perhas holy spirit might have spoken to us during the time of intimate worship.
Let this be an invitation and a challange to you.
Submit as many entry of God's love that you have experience lately.
The winner will be the best entry that Tim picked.
And I will bake my famous Blueberries Manhatten Cheese cake just for you.
The closing date of this challange will be one month from now. 20th Nov 07 at 1005 pm.
This is open to all believers young and old. If you need access to this blog, give me a call.
I am a friend of God. Are you?
