Hey, welcome back to fireBRANDS blog again. Want to know what happened in youth service last week? If yes, don't stop. All you just need to do is to scroll down. Easy.
Back to the topic.Service was different last Saturday. There was no pre-service prayer.We started at 7:30, everyone was eager for what was installed from Sarah Khoo for ice-breakers!
The game is to find people. HOW?
Well, each person is required to take a piece of paper and a pencil.We need to find people based on the questions.
For example: Who never sleeps in class?
: Isaac Huang
We need the person to write his/her name on our paper.
(you get it ,do you?)
We had a few winners. Don't worry,no forfeit for losers.
After ice breaker,we had worship led by Leroy and his team.We sing praises to God and allow His fire to burn our hearts.
After worship,we had a very special speaker for the night.Who can it be? *jeng jeng jeng* Our speaker of the night is: Gabriel Ch'ng ! A.K.A. "Eulene's brother in-law" |
What was his message about?
Boy.. Girl.. Relationship...
Eulene: Oh,I get it now!
Could you be in a relationship?(No/Yes/Maybe?)
Consider This
1. Get your act right with God.
- What is our No.1 priority?
- Colossians(3:1-4)
- Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.
2. Seek God first
2nd Timothy (2:22)
- Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love
- and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
- Call upon the lord and pray to Him
How?
- Serve God with whole hearted devotion and with a willing mind.
- Keep your tongue from evil.
- Forsake evil ways
- Have clean hands and pure hearts
- Doing what's right
- Humble
3. Enjoy your youth
- Ecclesiastes(11:9-10)
- You who are young, be happy while you are young,
and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth.
Follow the ways of your heart
and whatever your eyes see,
but know that for all these things
So then, banish anxiety from your heart
and cast off the troubles of your body
for youth and vigor are meaningless.
4. Allow yourself to grow in maturity
- !st Corinthians(13:4-8)
- Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
5. Responsibilities/ Priorities
- What are your priorities?
- God,church,family school social,personal goals
6. Avoid Temptations
- Hebrews (13:4)
- Marriage should be honored by all,
and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.
7. Equally Yoked
- 2nd Corinthians(6:14)
- Do not be yoked together
with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?
What if I'm in a relationship right now?
- It doesnt have to be a secret!
- Tell your parents,friends,pastor.
What if I'm not in a relationship right now?
- Seek God,don't be envious,don't rush to it,take this time to know more about yourself.
- Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues,they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
After Gabriel shared, Leroy added a few more things and concluded youth service.
Leroy : " Well, I think this wraps up our youth service.There's youth next week,same time ,same place.Be here next week."
This ends the blog for the 26/05.See you soon in the next post. Bye!
