Woah God is amazing to work through the 10 year old Tajik boy like that. Can't imagine that in a Muslim country. I think God has His great ways to touch the coldest hearts. Remember when this Swedish guy from Heart of God, I think his name was Christian. When he came to JYM and shared from
1 Cor 1:26-28 "Not many of you were wise by human standards, not many were influential, not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things - the things that are not - to nullify the things that are."
Then he said that God uses unexpected people, and that those people can be you and me. And I remember someone who said this, "No one can imagine what God can do through a person who is fully surrendered to Him." Makes me want to live a life fully surrendered to God, but there are many distractions. I think that's what a cell group is for, Elza :), to encourage each other to live totally for God. Cos if we are alone there's no one to remind us when we are distracted, or encourage us when things are tough. I feel that this cell is growing towards that. Becoming more open about our lives and our problems. This cell is not a place where we judge each other, but a place where we love each other enough to want to see each other grow. And a place where we're comfortable to share our lives with each other because we know that each of us have our own problems, and there's no perfect person, no 'better' Christian. Perfect people are people who hide their problems and struggles perfectly.
Wanna encourage those of us with school ministry. We're not just gonna sit and say that the Tajik boy did a great job. We're gonna say that God did a great job through a boy who was obedient, and He does the same through anyone who is obedient. Amen?

Thanks Junting, that you'll be posting online sermons. I like the Laminin one. Let's all make time to watch them k
Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." Matthew 4:4.
Our walk with God becomes dry when we neglect God's Word. Then we may end up even discussing the online sermon during prayer/cell time. Haha. I know God will speak to all of us in the cell if we are all tuned in to Him.
Lastly I wanna say I've been really blessed by you guys. You guys have been such a great cell group and
