PE class

    Firstly I want to thank Brother Casey and Sister Devina for teaching us. I have learned a lot about  Studying the three epistles and attending the lessons. I hope I am able to put them all into practice and be able to teach it to others too. I like how I need to fill in the blanks in the powerpoint as it makes me pay more attention and I am able to remember easier what is being taught. Thank you to sister Devina for once again teaching the structural diagramming. It is very useful as I am able to come up with a outline for preaching. However I need to practice more to be better at it.

    There are many things that I have learnt in the class. I am very blessed because the teachings were mostly about the correcting of what has always been taught about the word of God. Overall, the teaching that I can bring back is regarding self-control. I need to learn how to have self-control and not just act according to my emotions or mood. I must also not be shy or be afraid when I am sharing about the truth because God has not given me the spirit of fear but of love and self-control. I must always read the bible diligently and study the word so that I am able to teach it according to what the bible teaches so that I will not be a false teacher and lead people astray.

    As a challenge to myself, I want to aspire to be an overseer not because of power but because I want to serve God and desire a noble work for the Lord. I must be a kingdom culture generation. to be one who seeks God and not desires of this world. I must learn to be above approach and have the qualities that is written in 1 Timothy 3:1-7. By the grace and mercy of God, I pray I can be a good leader. Today I am leading a group of youth and children in my ministry. I will put into actions what I have learnt, thought they may be children or teenagers who seems not to understand about the world. I believe through my moral conduct and actions, speech and faith. I am supposed to be a light to them and direct them towards God.

    As a woman of the faith, I need to be careful with my actions and my attire as not to stumble the opposite sex. In my good service with the Lord, I want to  have a good reputation with others and God. I also want to have great confidence before God. I also understood that as a Christian, we should be faithful and loyal to God despite the hardship that we can face in life. God understands that we will have difficulties therefore He has given us the power of the Holy Spirit, love and to be self-discipline to help us in our walk with God when life is hard. We should be balance in this 3 aspects. Because of the power God has given to me. I must not be ashamed of the gospel. I want to preach to the whole world. He has given us a holy calling therefore through Christ I am able to accomplish the task God has for me.
