Basket Ball!!

Hey, for most of you out there who weren't able to make it yesterday, but we did have a lot of fun playing basketball.

After planning for 2 weeks in a row and the rain that kept preventing us from playing basketball, after much prayer... IT DIDNT RAIN YESTERDAY!! so...what does that bring us to, we got to play basketball.

Well, the game was kinda funny coz itz like the people who were there were mostly people i don't really know, and i'm glab i got to know this guy, Bo, from Korea. Well, his basketball skills is like mine, something like no skill, so we both ended up being like the no-shot-in-the-basket guys. Lol, besides him, Terence, Panu and Weilen, were the only people i knew.

And i was there thinking, hey, this people are really free on fridays, what can we do to invite them to join us, what can we do to attract them, is there something that we are missing out that is actually attracting the people from coming?

Boys, i need some feed back really, how is the cell group so far? Is the cell group something thata you all look forward to? Or is it something that you do out of a duty, like, oh ok, i'll come because chi wern asked me to come. Also, i alwayz though that i am young! Ahahahaha, i know i'm not, well, at least now i think i'm not, coz sometimes, i find it difficult to think of things that will interest you guys, and believe me, i really do find it very hard to think of thigns that will attract you all.

After going round and round, we have only been playing board game, soccer, basketball, LAN gaming. Is there anything else that can attract poeple to come? I need feedback from you all, because if you want to win castlegreen for God, we need to start coming up with events that can draw people.

Also, other than events, i think we also need to start praying more fervently for the people. So, i really hope that we can actually pray constantly for our cell group. And to keep each other in prayer.

A new book!

Hey boys, i've just got a new book called 'The Young Men At The Mirror', and i think this will be the book that i am going to use for our bible studies. Looked through briefly at the content of the book, and i am glad to be able to tell you that, i really believe God will use this book to touch and change your life!

Well, next it, can you guys drop me a msg or something about which days you are available to meet up for maybe 1 hour like that. We won't have to be meeting only at Castle Green, i will try my best to go to your area, maybe we can go McD or somewhere nearby and do an hour of bible study. Wanna feed you guys with some chunky meat from the bible!!

Sudden urge to share more!

Well, i'm sitting infront of my computer, and i felt, hey, since i'm already at it, i might as well go all the way. Wanted to share a few things with you all.


Well, why did i put up this picture? Well, if you look carefully at the pic, at the brown color area, is where you can see the cloud and the sun while the rest of the area is completely blank. What is the reason to putting this picture, is really to remind all of us, to focus. See, the brown area is is where the focus point of the picture is, and when we focus, we will be able to to press through because we know where we want to head, what we want to achieve.

Like, Jesus for example, He is a very good example of someone beign very focused. When Jesus was praying at the mountain, He asked God the Father, God, if it is possible, please take this cup away from me, but not my will but yours be done. Well, at the end, Jesus knew that He has to go to the cross, and die and horrible death. Well, Jesus was focus, all the way until the cross, until the very end where He says, 'It is finished'.

What can we learn from Jesus, we can learn that Jesus is so focused that He endured all hardship, all pain, all shame, and became obedient even to death, for our sake. And Jesus didnt give up. He went all the way.

So, boys, let's learn to be like Jesus, let's be very focus in the things that we want to do. Let us endure, to pray until somehting happens, to pursue until, live love, and to praise, rejoice,endure, coz salvation is sure!

Well, a penny for my though!

Hey!

Hi guys, it's been a while seen any of us logged in, and looking at the way things are going, probably would be a long time from now that we are going to log in again. But anyway, it doesnt really matter.

Wanted to share my heart with you guys, and hope you all can catch the vision together with me.

Was just praying this morning before attending my post-encounter classes, and i asked God, God, please give me a goal, a vision for this cell. And i really seek and seek God, and guess what, as the bible promised, when we seek God with all our hearts,He will be found by us. So, lets go!

Well, i really felt that the vision of our cell would be,
" To Build A Generation Of God Fearing Youths To Impact Our Generation"

And our mission,
1. To be a role model for our generation to glorify God in our family, school and neighbourhood.

2. To grow close to God in every aspect of our life by having an intimate relationship throught praying, reading the bible and quiet time.

3. To stand up for our faith and not giving in to peer pressure but doing what is right in God's eyes.

And with this, i think the verse for this year for us would be, Acts 2:46-47 'Everyday they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their numbers daily those who were being saved.

Well boys, i really believe with all my heart, that indeed this year, as we meet and continue to grow with God, He will add to our numbers, not only in quantity, but more importantly, in quality. Guys, you all have been a great blessings to me, and i am really thankful that God gave me this opportunity to be able to serve with you all. My one prayer is that you all grow in the Lord!

I'll try to constantly add my quiet time article and my personal feelings everyday, and i hope that this blog is not only a one way thing for me to talk to you all, but this blog will serve as a tool for us to constantly keep each other in prayer and to update each other on what is happening to our life.

So, love you guys, and i have to say, it's an honour for me to serve along side with all of you!

Daryl God, Daryl Xie, Russell, May the Lord keep watch over you! And lets pray together that the lord will add to our numbers!

Love,
Chi Wern
