okay... then caro- talked about last week's sermon and last last week's sermon... the gifts and the fruit of the holy spirit. they must work hand in hand, (like each and every CELL in our body). always remember that no one gift is more important than the other. gifts are used for the common good and never for our personal agendas, so when you ask for gifts, always ask for the motive to use it for the common good. then, you need to operate the gift in LOVE... for ppl and God. You can either excel or exit in your gifts, so always make your choice wisely! Next, the fruit of the holy spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. You need to excel in your spiritual gift but you need to grow and nurture your fruit carefully. Now we talk about applications.
-LOVE unconditionally
-have JOY for the JOY of God is thy strength
-have the PEACE that surpasses all understanding as it stands in the midst of tribulations
-understand that PATIENCE = long-suffering (hmm… good things come to those who wait)
-be KIND to everyone, do good to others
-your FAITHFULNESS is your reliability and trustworthiness
-be meek /GENTLE, a meek person does not allow its spirit to vent frustration (moribus modestus )
-exercise SELF-CONTROL
all this 9 virtues reveals your character… so do you bear these fruits?
hmm... this is the end liao... then we pray and pls continue to pray for the christmas musical and press on for the ppl u wanna bring... okay... cya in the next cell meeting and be early!!!oh ya, rmb to bring $4 for cell fund!!!
