There's a fire on the Penang Bridge!

Don't worry it was just a small incident considering the bridge is the only piece of land connecting us to the mainland. xP

Anyways, despite that youth service carried on as usual that night.

Prayer.

Worship was lead by our very veteran fireBrand Nehemiah.

Ok here's a question.

Whats the first thing that comes to mind when you see this face?

..... ..... ......

Yes you've guessed it. BIRTHDAYS

This time its for all the people born in September.

Blessed birthday! To all of you.

So who was the speaker that night?

Actually it was supposed to be Eunice Lee but she got caught in the jam on the brigde. Which meant that, she could not make it. Down.

So she asked someone to share the message she had prepared.

The fortunate Tania Loke.

She enligtened us about the thing that most of us take for granted, that book we carry around all the time.


What makes the bible so different?

1. It is our spiritual food.

²Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, ³now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.

1 Peter 2 : 2

2. It is powerfull.

You cannot love Jesus without loving the bible.

God will always teach us and guide us but we ourselves must be ready to receive.



How should we read the bible?

Some things not to do :

1. Don't start at the beginning
2. Don't read it like a novel.
3. Don't treat it like a dictionary. Which means like only when you need something from it you go and read.

Some things to do :

1. Pray before you read. Expectation is powerful.
2. Learn something from the background of what you are reading.
3. Meditate on the bits that strike you.
4. Use a good modern translation.
5. Make notes.

¹ My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,

² turning your ear to wisdom
and applying your heart to understanding,

³ and if you call out for insight
and cry aloud for understanding,

⁴ and if you look for it as for silver
and search for it as for hidden treasure,

⁵ then you will understand the fear of the LORD
and find the knowledge of God.

Proverbs 2 : 1-5

The more you read the bible the more you'll understand the author.
