N272.

a new name, a new beginning and new members.

offically multiplied earlier with E324.

tears were shed, they had their last time together as E324, praying, fellowshipping and enjoying each other companies. loads of pictures were taken and there were loads of food on the tables too.

E324 is quite a special cellgroup, to me. most of their members come from st hilda, where every year, there's a mighty revival among the students. i found out that their school give away bibles too all students~

even though not all students are Christians, it really makes reaching out so much easier~

imagine going through a hard time in school, yet you do not know the promises of God. when someone reaches out to you in faith and with the promises of God thats written in the bible, the battle is already halfway won=)

thank God for such a school! imagine if ngee ann poly does that too~ won't that be really cool? and make bible studies a CORE IS MODULE! wOoHoO!! r-e-v-i-v-a-l~!!

well, back to the topic. though i may not know that members from E324, we still had to fellowship with them because some of their members may become my cellgroup members. so, chatted around with some of the brothers there and found out pretty interesting stuffs~

God directed me to the people that i spoke to.

i spoke to 2 unknown guys from E326, and they became my cellgroup members after brother roy sorted everyone out. so, i believe that the "ice" has broken between me and the other 2 brothers and the next time we meet, it wouldn't be so awkward.

seen most of my new cellgroup members and they are people on fire for God! most of them are Ministry Members, serving God in their ministrys and even cellgroup helpers~ i'm sure that with their presence, many things would be happening in our lives, as well as their lives~

on the way home, i was thinking to myself.

with a cellgroup that boosts so many MMs and cellgroup leaders, where do i stand? my dreams and visions of being a cellgroup leader, pastor still lingers in my mind.

in the beginning, i thought of taking a backstep and just follow the crowd, but when i came back to my "senses" i realised that thats not what God wants me to be. certainly not a wallpaper, but a painter that paint walls!

there are quite a number of younger brothers and sisters in the cellgroup and its really a chance for me to lead them and to disciple them, if possible. but, with the overwhelming number of MMs and cellgroup members in the cellgroup, its going to be tough.

but, we're all formed together in the body of Christ, so there would be needs that i can meet and there would be needs that others can meet=)

so with this multiplication, its really a great time for me to grow in the Lord and rise up to take ownership of the cellgroup. even though i'm a not a PCGL, nothing can stop me from learning and growing in the Lord~!!

today's sermon spoke directly into my circumstances.

its not the first time i've been feeling empty and definately not the first time that i've been tempted by the devil. brother roy said that Jesus have faith in us when the devil tries to tempt us.

Jesus's faith in us is so strong that He allows the devil to tempt us, so as to test our faith in Him. yet, time and time again, we failed the tests. some people pass the test with flying colors, yet some barely made it.

i've no idea how many "marks" i got for my test, but i really do hope that i'll be stronger in the Lord~

more tests coming up! spiritual tests and "earthly" tests~ loLz=P
