OOOH AHHH NEW COM AHHH
hello from your crippled cell leader..first of all..thank you all for the super scrapbook thing with some of the most hilarious nonsense ive ever seen seriously man it was really encouraging to read it before i went for my op and after that when i was bored and drowsy in the hospital with some old man chanting incessantly at the bed beside mine haha..and thanks for visiting me at home and bringing er..entertainment to me and even more so for my brother hahaha..it really meant alot to see all of you guys man..trust me when ur leg is all swollen and practically useless you need all the encouragement you can get..so thanks :)
anyway! just a little summary about cell on fri..remember our cell vision for the year thats based on this memory verse: MATT 7:24-27 for those who weren't at cell on fri, we're gonna be aiming to
1) be wise men and build our houses upon the rock
i.e. build a firm foundation upon God's Word, such that his light will shine forth naturally from us at all times, through our speech, actions etc. The practical ways of achieving this, which coincidentally coincides with the what the church is doing now, is to read our bibles daily. how much you wanna read is up to you..but stick with the bare minimum of one chapter a day like what the youth's gonna be doing (but really, you and i know thats really measly haha)
2) to help each other build our houses
to put it simply, accountability and mutual encouragement with regards to the first point. to help build each other up spirtually, to help one another watch our words and actions, to keep each other in constant prayer, cos if we can't even do that within our cell, what about when we're around our pre-believer friends? as iron sharpens iron, one man sharpens another.
yup, so thats just a summary of our cell vision..for now..the youth will be starting a series called "back to basics" i think, which kinda parallels to what we're trying to do: get our christian basics back on track, so thats good! so keep praying for the cell, and ask god what he wants of you in cell or church, whether to serve as an intern, leader, whatsoever. thats all for now..keep the cell and the youth in prayer yea..and we'll see great things happen :)
