Life Group

Tonight we had Life Group at Tim and Winifred Heron’s house. Besides them, only Sharon and yours truly were present. All the other members were either sick or busy. Eventhough there were only four of us, we had a good time together.

We watched a VCD by Joyce Meyer entitled ‘Where are you going in such a hurry?’

Among the notes I managed to jot down.

Do not let the world pressure you. We can be fruitful. We need to plan. We need to live with a purpose. Do not be vague.

Spend 80% of your time into developing top 2 or 3 of your strengths.

Many people are confused with what they are supposed to do.

Do not put up with vagueness. Are you living for a purpose? Are you making the most of your time? Do not let opportunities go by.

Vague – not clear, unsettle, wondering

The Israelites were wondering in the desert for 40 years. It only takes 11 days to go across the desert. They did not have real vision. They grumbled and complained.

Get a fire in your belly. Be passionate about something.

1 John 3 – Jesus knew His purpose. He was so focused.

Cut off sucker branches.

Have a direction. Live with purpose.

Psalm 100:2 Serve the Lord with gladness.

1 Thess. 5:18 Be thankful in everything.

Love God passionately. Love people. Be a blessing.

Happiness comes from the heart, not based on what we have.

Hurrying prevents us from being sensitive to the things around us.

Hurrying makes us rude.

After watching the VCD, we spent some time to share on what we had heard that was applicable to us individually. Then Sharon and Tim prayed together while I with Wini.

We continued to share our thoughts after prayers. Indeed we are extremely thankful for having Abba Father in our lives.

Matthew, Tim and Wini’s 19 months old son is so cute. At one stage when he said please to his dad, all of our hearts just melted. Hehe
