Hey E501! Here are the notes that i wrote when i am listening to the sermon :D

John 13:3
To live a succesful life:
1. You got to know your power ( power to lead, good in Math and Etc)
2. You got to know your position.
- Who you are in Christ?
- Where you come from?
3. Purpose.
-Where are you going?

John 13:4-5
God is not against Greatness.
God wants is the way we achieve greatness through servanthood, a servant of all.
Do not do it because you fear or feeling guilt.
Servanthood is how Jesus express His love.

John 13:1-3
He loves his servant to His very end.
Talents alone is not enough.
Humble yourself to serve God and His people for His purpose.


Servanthood is the key to . . . . . .
1. Promotion.
Philippians 2:5
- Have this mind and attitude of Jesus Christ.
Your attitude determines your altitude.
Philippians 2:6
-Born servant is someone who is willing to bound down to his master. (serve all times to everbody)
Philippians 2:9-15)
Be a servant to all. Have the attitude to serve.

2. Authority.
Luke 19:16
Be humble and have the attitude of servanthood.

3. Destination.
Gen 24:18,22,53
Servanthood will prosper you in life.
Serving God and doing great in your work and studies at the same time.
Be balance for both sides.

Sorry if i typed anything WRONG here!
SHERM:D

hey hey E501! received an email... and would like to share it with you!

I quit my job, my
relationship, my spirituality. .. I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.
"God", I asked, "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"
His answer surprised me...
"Look around", He said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?"
"Yes", I replied.
"When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.
I gave them light.
I gave them water.
The fern quickly grew from the earth.
Its brilliant green covered the floor.
Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo.
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.
And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. He said.
"In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.
But I would not quit.
In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would
not quit." He said.
"Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared
to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant. ..But just 6
months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.
I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."
He asked me. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots".
"I would not quit on the bamboo.
I will never quit on you."
"Don't compare yourself to others."
He said.
"The bamboo had a different Purpose than the fern.
Yet they both make the forest beautiful."
"Your time will come", God said to me.
"You will rise high"
"How high should I rise?"
I asked.
"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return.
"As high as it can?" I questioned.
"Yes." He said, "Give me glory
by rising as high as you can."
I left the forest and brought back this story.
I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.
Never, Never, Never Give up.

For the Christian Prayer is not an option but an opportunity. Don't tell the Lord how big the problem is, tell the problem how Great the Lord is!



just want to tell you, don't give up!
no matter what troubles or circumstances you are in...
DON'T ever give up!
be committed to the process!
and when you've conquered all of these,
you'll realise that this "mountain" is just so small.
and you'll also realise that you've grown to be a better person!

hope that this will bless you!

^^ byebye!
