Be holy, just as God is holy. (1 Peter 1:15-16)
A simple statement, a profound message, and an impossible mission?
I mean... it's easy to be kind, it's easy to be loving... these are usually one off acts aren't they? I might never have been bothered with the plight of the poor, but all of a sudden one day I'm touched by this poor boy running down the streets...and I buy him a meal...and i'm 'kind'. So too is it with many positive attributes right? esp in the eyes of our society..
"It usually takes only an act of _______ (try it urself!) to be ______ ."
But can we say that for holiness? Let's see..."It usually takes only an act of holiness to be holy". Hmm...sounds wrong ya? But why? Why is it so hard to be "holy"? Why is the essence of holiness so different from that of other positive qualities?? Must we be 24/7 holy to be considered holy? and If so, how is that possible?! And just as you are being compounded with questions abt the mystery of holiness....our dear God whispers into your heart "Hey you know, i'm not just holy. I'm HOLY,HOLY,HOLY (Book of Revelations)." Well done! So much for being a God that i can cast my burdens on!!
But surely, blaming God for our failures to meet up to His standards can't be right can it? Perhaps we need to take a few steps back and look deeply into the word "holiness" afresh, discover once again frm God's Words what it means to us and together as a YF, realise that it is within our grasp. So come, take up the challenge, claim the Truth for yourself, join us for....

Hey people! So have you been practising the ACTS model of prayer taught to you 2 weeks ago? Or have you been too busy and happy after Vday and forgot all about it already?? Haha.
Anyway this Sunday we'll be having prayer meeting USING the ACTS model. Wow. Now if you're thinking 'Hmm... Isn't the ACTS model just a personal model of prayer? Can we do it corporately?' Well come and be enlightened. To experience the fullness of God's promises, to satisfy your curiosity about the corporate way of praying ACTS, and to practise this wonderful way of communicating with our Loving Father, we present to you...
THE PRAYER MEETING

A last minute reminder to all EXCO members who are staying up late and 'accidentally' come online tonight.... btw, this is open to ALL YFers as well. :) It is held monthly, either on the 1st Sat or Sun of the month. We plan to meet to ask God to lift all of us who are weary and stressful,
