Sunday, Scripture Reading. (Romans 12 : 9-21)
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
(Pastor) "Love comes with responsibilities!" which is soooo very true when you think about it.
To LOVE SINCERELY, is to love without hypocrisy.
To me, it means loving those who are lazy, because i myself am lazy. Or loving those whom criticise because yes, i do criticise. (ackk...GUILTYY)
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.
(Pastor) We should love others as the Lord loves us.
(Remembering that our love for Him cannot compare to the depth/height/width of His love for us)
Means i'd have to remember to be selfless, thinking of you first, instead of me and STILL love you through thick & thin.
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
(Pastor) Keep your fire burning, practise the fruits of the Holy Spirit and sharing is caringg
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
Rejoice with those who rejoice;
mourn with those who mourn.
Live in harmony with one another.
Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position.
Do not be conceited.
(Pastor) We are ONE in Christ, when one is happy, we'll share his/her happiness. When one is in sorrow, we'll share his/her sorrow.
Who am i to judge? I should be the one willing associate..VOLUNTARILY, to live in harmony.
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.
If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written:
" It is mine to avenge;
i will repay," says the Lord
(Pastor) Must always consider how your actions will look to others. And let God settle the scores, you just have to do your part, for he has promised.
(And God never EVER breaks His promises.)
uh oh...Cannot litter cannot litterr!! ><" ahhh!! cannot hao lian cannot hao liaannn!!
On the contrary:
" If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. "
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.
Do not be overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good.
(Pastor) We're called to LOVE, to act in a way that brings GLORY to God. It's not about what we want but about what God wants. Why? Because He created us, and He has a purpose for each one of us.
*breathes in breaths out*
my enemy..whoawhoa...kay kay.
Still love my enemy in other words..
jiaa youuuuuuuuu ><"""""
