You know, every Sunday I'll vow to write about what I've learnt at the sermon and share it with whoever reads my blog. Somehow, every Sunday after church, the issue will disappear from my mind (erm...) In any case, here's my first attempt at summarising the morning's sermon (which was easy because there were only two key messages):
Key message #1: Step out of your comfort zone in faith.
Key message #2: Be a blessing to others.
Thought that #2 is particularly relevant because a lot of us are blessed in many ways already. I especially think that I have more than what I could ever ask for. Despite the constant work frustrations, it's amazing how God's grace kept me going. And I've also come to realise that for every 2 meannies I meet, there are like 20 others who are really friendly and helpful. Hence, in the same way, I also want to be part of that group which helps people maintain the belief that yes, there are still a lot of nice people around! Like.... 人间有希望. :)
On a related note, have to learn to pray for others also, even for those people we do not like. And pray not for them to be punished, but for a change of heart. It's actually not easy at all, but I suppose once you start to put down the sense of pride and defensiveness, it could work. Have tried that before, and actually it felt.... weirdly good.
So yep, here's summarising the key messages for today + my own thoughts. Hopefully, I will keep up this habit for the Sundays to come... ^ ^
