I hate to admit it but I'm a worrier. I believe the people who are close to me can verify this. I worry about almost everything: even what clothes I should wear the next day. This is one habit and shortcoming that I need to overcome. Remember one of the blog entry on worrying? Here's another aspect we can look and perhaps learn to overcome worrying. Once again God brought me to this verse in Matthew 6 when He said:" Do not worry." Don't worry about the basic needs of life--- food, clothing, shelter--- and don't worry about tomorrow. Worry may be a symptom of a bigger problem. Sometimes it's a lack of gratitude for the way God has cared for us in the past. Or perhaps it's a lack of faith that God really is trustworthy. Or it may be the refusal to depend on God instead of ourselves. Or perhaps it's something we have done wrong and worrying that we don't deserve God's help anymore. Some people expand the worry circle to their families,friends,and churches. They're a lot like the 10 spies in Numbers 13 who spread their fear and doubt to everybody else. But those who put their trust in God alone can stand along side Joshua and Caleb, the only ones in the group of 12 who God allowed to enter the Promised Land. "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication,with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." Philippians 4:6 Don't let worries hold you back from what God may be trying to teach you. When you have sinned,confess to God immediately and not do it again. Do not let this affect you bringing your request to God. He invites you to bring your anxious thoughts directly to Him. Lets remind each other and be overcomers of worrying! Look forward to!: One-Bring-One service on 14 Sept! Let's unite our hearts as one as we join our vision for the church in being active in evangelism:) Yes, in every opportunity this period of time to invite your loved ones, dear friends and unsaved friends to come to know God!! We trust that it will be an awesome service with God moving so vividly through the entire theatre! amen:) This Week @ Detonate: Discipleship Group Session:):) we are into our 7th quality of learning the Fruit of the Spirit! Congrats for being so faithful in learning! We do hope you have been more developed and shaped by the Holy Spirit! Keep persevering as you allow God to strengthen the quality that He has given to everyone of you:):) Cya all at 4.30pm sharp for an hour's time of intense worship and prayer as we seek God as one ministry, as one unified Detonate standing back to back with one another in this spiritual battle:)) We believe He will be here. Prayers From the Body: Do keep Brother Darren and Sister Jia Ling in prayers as they continue to trust God for healing for their mother. God has kept them thus far, and we wanna thank God for His faithfulness. We know God is in overall control, and He is in full knowledge of each and everyone in the entire family. Let's stand together with them in this time of trying period and be such a support to them, that they may be filled with joy and courage. We also want to remember Sister Summer's grandmother who is also hospitalised last week. May God's healing spirit be upon the sickly and we pray in faith for full recovery. We thank God for bringing our poly students through the entire exam period! Wee:))) And now for your long-deserved break, I pray that you will use it to honour God just as He keeps you through the entire exam period! Not forgetting our O level students in prayers as they commit this preparatory time unto God. May they be faithful in keeping up with their revision. Persevere on people! It definitely will come to an end! Strive onwards for the goal! Do remember our NS brothers (Joshua, Yu Po, Matthew, Ziyao, Josiah) who are undergoing their basic training. May the presence of God oversee and protect them as they go through the various trainings. Pray also that they will stand strong on God's promises for them and be a living testimony that draws men to Jesus! Strive on brothers! Although we are geographically separated, but we are not in spirit and hearts. Do remember our brothers and sisters who are overseas as they press on in their trying times. We know it is not easy being away from their homes and comfort zones but for sure they are in good hands of God. So no matter the obstacles, we are proud of all you guys for giving your difficulties a shot:)) For your help comes from the Lord. Labels: relationships  |
