Treasures in heaven....

I attended the cell leaders' refresher course these 2 days even though I used to be a supervisor and cell leaders for the past 17 years and attended more than 10 times of this same course/training. Well, I was a bit reluctant at first, but as much as what it is suppose to be - refresher course, I am refreshed. hehehe...

Sadly, most of the people do not see the needs to attend the said training/course. I am not sure what is the reason. Most probably it's a short notice (less than a month's notice) and CCL leaders has this 'tradition' to go away from KK during long weekend and/or holiday. Oh well, this has somehow kept me thinking... of whether we put our treasures in heaven or on earth. Do we want to enjoy the 'holiday' on earth then putting the 'holiday' and fun in heaven for later? Do we sacrifies time for the Lord and for His kingdom then our own schedule or programmes and enjoyment? I really wonder...

I can say that, until today (after 4 years of starting of cell group in CCL), my cell is the ONLY cell that runs the 5W and we run it as it is suppose to be. Others do not see the needs of following the same 'methods' simply because first, they do not understand how effective it is and secondly, it's because they do not want to have a changes in their cell/fellowship/group meeting. I am seriously discouraged today after the refresher course, as only a handful of people attended, Oh.. i mean, a handful of LEADERS (which they always call themselves as) had attended.

I wonder, if they want to be leaders only or are they looking for expanding His kingdom. If it is the later, I do hope they do discover what it means by putting treasures in heaven in terms of their time, their dedication, their submission and so on. I am disappointed, but I am too, reminded... of the same point - putting treasures in heaven (His kingdom).
