20-10ve Project

When God talks about love, it is very different from what the world tells us. It's not just that His standard is higher or that it is deeper than the world's. It is COMPLETELY different. And this is the standard that we should adopt because what the world tells us is fake so let's not waste our time pursuing it.

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strenght. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbour as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." Matthew 22:36-40

Remember....Love is not a feeling. Love is a decision to act in a certain manner.
From Romans 12 & 1 Cor 13, we find out what it means to "love one another"...love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud....
Now let's find out what it means to "love God"!

20-10ve Project. What is this?
Deuteronomy is full of explanations on what it means to "love God". In fact...we find in this book a COMMAND to love! So what better book for us to read as we learn what it means to love God!
Everyone of us will spend the next 20days reading 10chapters of Deuteronomy.

Chap 6-15: Audrey, Clare, Ian, Norman, Genevieve
Chap 13-22: Emily, Esther, Lydia, Hardy, Wilson
Chap 20-30: Daniel, Samuel L, Samuel S, Gabriel, Wei Ping

In these chapters, we will find all the details of what it means to love the Lord our God! Spend the next 20 days (half chapter a day) and jot down the "Do" and "Do Not" in loving God.
We'll compare notes on 13Sept in cell and discuss this topic in depth :)

All set for cell this week....? I AM!

Wow. What a quiet blog! Seems like God hasn't been doing much in our lives hey? Well....maybe after the exams we'll warm up and start sharing more! *hopeful smile*

Cell this week...1-3pm Saturday...is at Blk 128 Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 #09-1841.

For comprehensive directions on how to get to the cell venue, check your e-mails! If you are arranging to meet each other at the Ang Mo Kio stn, remember to meet early. I estimate that it'll take you about 15min to find your way to Blk 128. Snacks will be "served" at 12.50pm so come early!!

A few of us need to go down to church for worship practice at 4pm. 1 hour is just about enough time for us to get there. If we start cell late...it's likely that we will end cell late and it'll be hard for us to get down to church in time. Let's practice honouring others above ourselves (= love) by being ON TIME! If you cannot come for cell or you know you will be late this week, let me know beforehand okay?

Serving us this week:
Wei Ping - snacks
Samuel Soh - worship
