Whose?

It's sort of funny where everyone gave me an impression that the cell group is MINE. For a moment, I wonder what make them think that. After a good 3 weeks break (thank goodness I had some break), the cell group resumed last week (I was dragging myself for it) and it only had 4 of us. However, like I shared earlier, God blessed us indeed with a fruitful gathering. Some wonderfully asking for more and so although I have a very valid reason to cancel the cell meeting due to there is a evanglical meeting this Friday, I insist there's cell group gathering tonight. Some people asking for reason of why. My first reason is of course, cell group gathering and evanglical meeting are 2 different occasions and they are directed to different group of people. Evangelical meeting served 2 different functions to 2 different groups of people, i.e the christian, or a strong devoted christian and non-christian. It meant for non-christian to know the Christ and accept Jesus as their saviour and for christian to bring their loves one to know the Christ through this evangelical meeting.
Cell group however serves a totally different purpose. For our group which consist mostly what they themselves claimed christian, we are running cell group so to strengthen our relationship with all saints and with the Lord. It's NOT and NOT a TOOL for the cell leader to ENJOY his/her success. As a cell leader, I only know if I am successful when Jesus come again... whether I would be able to see you in heaven.
I know that people love to be weathy and powerful in this world. Being someone who is wealthy and powerful will means RESPECT from others. Let me tell you that's very wrong. I only see foolness in you if you do not know how to serve God with your wealth and your power given by the Lord because you are trying to store up treasures in the earth which will fade away once you die. To reminds you, you will die... and the most you can lives, I can give you up to maximum of 200 years. With your success, within 200 years, you can have whatever you want, do whatever you like, being wealthy, famours, powerful, even manage to sit next to the King, shake his hand, etc. etc. But still, you will die... and when you die.. if you have a Will, according to the Will, the moment you die, the Will will take effect, meaning to say, you won't have anything ANYMORE. When you entering into heaven (if you still eligible), it's ETERNITY... more than 200 years... it's FOREVER AND EVER.. and tell me... by then, you think you can TRY your very best to EARN somemore treasure in this evernity?
Church is no matter of yours because you can't EARN anything? Cell group is just a 'troublesome' committment and you rather join Rotary club or Lion club or JCI so that you can know more people and that they will give you more business? Giving to church to upgrade their sound system? Why so? they are not disco and they are not earning MORE if they have better sounds system. You have a wife to worry about, you have a cow to feed, you have so many commitments besides God and your everlasting world... because you WORRY.. worry about your future... but yet.. stupidly, you forgot... your life is NEVER in your hand. You cannot even control if you are born as a thin or fat body how can you, who doesn't know the future worry so much about your future?
Just to remind you, the cell group and the church is not MINE.. but it's my Father in heaven's. I have a very limited mind to judge you. May be you think God is happy about your decision today. Then go ahead. You are a mature christian and so ... be a real mature man and women, make your decision, bear with it yourselve. Don't blame me later on for not 'pursuading' you. I am always be reminded that, made your decision and bear with all sorts of consequences later due to your decision. May be you are too wealthy and that you can make your employee to bear with it...but there's no such thing in heaven.
I am still going to enjoy the cell group gathering tonight with a few others. I am sure we will have a good time tonight with the Lord. I always long for wonderful encounter and gathering with the Lord... As I speak on this, I am really sure that some of you only know God, but never encounter a relationship with Him and therefore, you really do not know what you are missing. I can't wait for tonight... hahahahaha....!!!

Indeed, thank God that you still move on to have cell group on Wednesday. To be frank, I am really looking forward to going to cell group. It has been quite some time we had not been meeting up.. Again, I am really encouraged by the Word of God and really amazed by God's wonders..

I know that you have been very busy throughout the whole days, perhaps weeks or perhaps months.. I really hope that I can help you out but I know it is impossible. However, I pray that you will be able to sustain your strength and also your faith in both your personal life and also as a servant of God.

It's hard to find you out now because of your tight schedule, so the only solution is to post something simple and sweet to encourage you..

Thank you for your encouragement and take good care of yourself..
