As you all know, New year is coming soon. Really take this time to spend quality time with your family members. It's a once a year thing, and it's only for, say, 5days?
Do make full use of it. All of us will want to have a happy family that stays with you through thick and thin right?
So do treasure this time and use it fully.
God bless and Happy Chinese New Year in advanced.

My prayer to Nissi Salt One
I am sure saturday's cell group was a breakthrough for a lot of us and I can say that, ALL of us went out of the room victoriously.
Even as right now, let's continue to even spur each other on, as we said, do our BEST in everything. Continue to pray for each other, pray for yourself.
" Father I just want to hand up this whole cell group into your hands, for You said that, we are MORE than conquerors. And even as we go on, guide us with Your word. We ask for more Father, more of You. Even as this week passes, do not let the cry of our hearts quieten down, but let our hearts cry out even more for You. We shall set our eyes on You, this path will be hard, but let us hold on to You, for You are our guide to daily life. I thank You for such a wonderful saturday You gave us, let the following saturdays be even more You-oriented, in Jesus' name I ask and pray, Amen. "

Let us continue to grow as a cell, and be the light for God.

Bible Reading Plan -- Week 2

Hey people, we're entering into the 2nd week of the bible reading plan, let's all put in the effort to study the bible together as a cell and come prepared this coming saturday alright!

I re-emphasize, that this bible reading plan is good because
1) We can actually finish reading the bible in one year
2) We can be able to come prepared for cell group as an individual and not depend on others to prepare
3) We can feed ourselves with the word of God on a daily basis

So, start taking responsibility of your own personal life with God and study the word of God! We no longer just want to read the bible, but let it be active in our lives, for "the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." (Heb 4:12)

So let's encourage each other on to stay consistent on this plan -- if you have trouble doing it regularly it's time to pray for determination and start calling the people you are accountable to and receive encouragement from each other!

Let's make this work alright ;)

With all the love in the world,
MK

Attitude determines your altitude: Ps Daniel - 10/1/09
> What our attitude is, determines how far we can go.
> We can only control reaction.
> Attitude is very important.
> Our mind is a battlefield everyday.
> Sometimes we just focus too much on our past, that we forget our future.
> Attitude is the single string that make or break you.
> What are you doing to the last string?
> If your attitude is right, nothing can stop you.
> Sometimes we are too focused on what's cannot be undone.
> Face the facts, it will still happen even if you moan and groan.

What can good attitude do?
1) It can turn obstacles into opportunities.
- Philippians 1:12
> Turning the situation around.
- Philippians 14:22
> Do we focus too much on obstacles?
What's the difference between obstacles and opportunities?
Ans: It's all about the attitude.
> It's all up to us.

2) It can be contagious.
> You are the walking answer for the world.

3) It makes the whole point be focused not on the situation, but instead it determines my reaction.
- Philippians 2:14
> Life is not a bed of roses.
> Attitude can change your life.
> Life is 10% what happens to us, 90% how we respond to it.
> Ability is how you do it but attitude is how well you can do it.

4) It causes me to trust in all situations.
- Philippians 3:1
- Philippians 4:4-7
> The mind is the one that determines our attitude.

Blame & Self-pity

> Blame backfires you.
> Self-pity bashes yourself out.
> My mess, My responsibility.
- Acts 16:25
- Philippians 4:8-9

New beginning (title given by myself) : Ps Daniel - 3/1/09
> The world needs a fresh start, do you?
- Philippians 3:12-16
> Help us through eternity

How to start afresh?
1) We gotta forget the past.
> God has given us the ability to remember.
> If you allow the past failures, you will be unable to live productively.
> God can make it for the good.
> God is already there.
i) "..... straining forward to what lies ahead''
ii) "..... rising up everytime we fall"
> You fail, I fail.
> Failure can be your friend.
> Failure will be failure if you don't learn anything from it.
> Get on with life.
> According to your life, it will be done.
> We need to learn from our mistake.
> We have to make our adjustments.

2) Focusing on our call.
> Different challenges equals to different approaches.
> New pressures equals to new convictions.
> What are the things that are preventing you from getting to God.

3) Function in the present.
> What you have today, is today.
> You only have today.
> Diligence.
> Do not put off anything you can do today until tomorrow.
> Recticular activating system.
