Amanda’s post on the funnier aspects of cell tonight were classic. Oh, those boys humour me with all their antics.
Cell has multiplied, with Justin and Amanda being the other cell leaders, with Joe still being the main one. This way, we separate into 2 groups to have discussions and then the guys and girls separate to pray. So far I haven’t been to cell in 2 weeks so this is the first time I’m seen this happening. It’s a bit better this way, easy to share and have discussions.
I’ve decided, instead of just leaving my notes in my notebook, I thought I’d write it down here just so people can learn from it to. Or just be motivated in some way to seek God even more and not lose the fire for God.
On a heavier note, we were discussing about how to grow and mature as a Christian. Someone brought up a good point, growing up doesn’t necessarily mean you mature. I believe this applies in everyone’s life, whichever aspect of life. Justin was sharing about ways to grow and mature as a Christian, 10 to be specific:
1. Fasting
2. Sacrifice
3. Service
4. Silence
5. Solitude
6. Celebration and worship
7. Prayer
8. Reading God’s Word
9. Secrecy
10. Fellowship
Justin assigned us ‘homework’ to help us learn how to grow as a Christian. He told us to pick 1 or 2 from the list and practice it this week and share during cell. I’ve picked prayer and reading God’s word. So to be accountable to everybody, I’m posting it here as well 
And there was the mnemonics to remember how to grow:
G – Go to God and pray daily (John 15:7)
R – Read God’s Word daily (Acts 17:11)
O – Obey God’s every command (John 14:21)
W – Witness for Christ by your life and words (Matthew 4:19 & John 15:8)
T – Trust God in everything (1 Peter 5:7 & Proverbs 3:4)
H – Allow Holy Spirit to control and empower you (Galatians 5:16-17 & Acts 1:8)
Quite a good cell tonight.
I’ve gotten my brother to blog here as well, so expect entries by him So far dad and David are reading this (Hi to everyone back in Malaysia!) and David is learning how to write and blog, so keep an eye out for him
It certainly has been a long night. I should rest my shoulder and get to bed
Maturity = responsibilty and it is measure throughout your whole path of life……
Our Spirit is our inner guide. And our Spirit never,never,gives us wrong directions.Because we’re human,it’s all too easy to deny the voice from within. Some call it conscience. And our behavior ,maybe frequently,maybe occasionally,belies what our conscience knows is right. We suffer from it.
We are trying to be healthy-emotionally,spiritually,physically. Each day we can make progress.With each action we take,we have a choice. Our spirit,our conscience, should be consulted. Right choices make for the right actions that will emotionally and spiritually benefit us and the other persons close to us. Its comforting to rely on the inner voice. It assures us we’re never alone. No decision has to be made alone.No wrong action need ever be taken. A sense of security accompanies the partnership between each of us and our spirit.
