Time: 10:00 – 10:25 am
Passage: 1 Chronicles 16 & 17
What We Learned:
Since we had just had guitar practice right before this meeting, while reading the first passage, what stood out to me was how David appointed people for specific tasks for praise, he didn’t just have everyone do the same thing. This reminded me of how Masami-san suggested us to have some people play guitars and some people just praise for our camp songs. This made me realize that each person is different, some people are more suited for singing while others may be more suited for playing instruments. I realized that this is how you lead, by being able to see each person’s talent and using that so that they can bring out the best of themselves. I want the Holy Spirit to give me the wisdom to be able to discern these things.
From the second passage, I was reminded that God is the one who provides. Often times, while doing work for the church, I have had the mindset of thinking that I am helping God out. But, God does not need any help. Hoshi is something for our benefit. God is allowing (I don’t really like using that word) us to do it, so that he can bless not just us but all the other people that work may be serving.
Kanami learned about how praise is about thanking God. She was reminded that she should always have that heart to thank God while praising.
Our Week:
I shared about how I spent my day with Joshua, Timothy, and Seiyu last Friday.
