first cell meeting of the year!

i joined the CCK YA Cell today
and i realised how much i miss everyone's company.

we all adjourned to lePastor (aka my PrayerBuddy)'s place
for lunar new year celebrations
(FOOD!! thankyou auntypeggy
for the dee-licious homemade lowhay!)
somewhat on an impulse?

i have yet to complete my 2000word essay
but after the worship meeting at church
i (surprised myself and) decided to join them.

and i do not regret my decision.

i really miss the YA.
i just feel so comfortable,
at ease, myself
when i'm with them.

for cell group we discussed
DISCIPLE MAKING.
[Matthew 28:18-20]
"¹⁹Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
²⁰and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you.
And surely I am with you always,
to the very end of the age."
note to self: ask May for the material's name.

we should all be pregnant! [SPIRITUALLY.]
but individually, are we?

spiritual pregnancy
-goes beyond bringing others to Christ (child-like faith)
-mentoring one into a deeper walk with God (follow up)

reasons for sterility:
1) singlehood
- not yielding closely to God in marriage
(just like the church is the bride
and Jesus is the loving groom)
2) disease
- sin can be likened to a disease
(where it hinders us from fulfilling
what the GREAT COMMISSION says)
3) immaturity
- as a young child cannot be pregnant
(we are not ready or prepared
to carry out disciple-making)

satan's tool to hampering pregnancy
> gossip
> disunity
> busyness

after the sharing and discussion
(of which i greatly treasure)
i am inspired, determined
to do what i have been called to do.
i realise my life here on earth
is not without purpose.
and i am going to fulfil it.
