went for bible studies earlier, and it caused me to think about the future.

brother kim hock asked us to visualize going for cellgroup and service for 50 years, without any zest for God or not doing God's primary purpose for us. the thought of it alone freaked me out as the things we would be doing would become so mudane and we won't be able to enjoy life at all~!

one of the greatest joy is when our friends, family members receive Christ!

sharing the Gospel is exciting too~ sharing causes us to grow spiritually and our confidence too! but, many people fear doing that due to fear of rejection and being mocked at. but, there are people waiting for us to minister to them, to share with them the Good News!

everyone in Christ is called to make disciples and produce fruits. in actual fact, there is no reason why we're unable to bring in more friends. reasons are given just to cover up for ourselves so as to not feel bad. but, that shouldn't be the kind of attiude!

if you feel that your spiritual life is dry, that means that you haven been sharing the Gospel with someone! means that you haven been evanglisaling! because sharing the Gospel would cause you to grow Spiritually stronger!

thats like so easy to do and once you step out of your comfort zone, things would happen. life would become MUCH more exciting. you won't feel EMPTY because you're beginning to fill up your heart with lost souls and seeing them saved by Christ=)

you see, the first step always the step of Faith and its one of the hardest step to take. but after that step of Faith, its Jesus who finishes the work and we do not have to do anything except to follow up with the person!!

you may face many problems and stuffs, but the Bible said in Mt 5:11-12 - "Blessed are you when they revile and presecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you."

so, why fear? faith pleases God and we MUST have faith in Him.

Jn 4:35 - "Do you not say, "There are still four months and then comes the harvest?" Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!"

a very familar verse right? but, harvest is plenty, workers are few.

Mt 9:37 - "Then (Jesus) said to His disciples, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray for Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest."

the Bible is accurate and pin pointed so many things that will happen. since we know what would befall us if we do not obey, why disobey!?

STUPID RIGHT!?
