The Choosing Of The Seven from Acts 6:1-7

The balance...
To find the balance in life - It's important to also find the balance in our family and ministry life.

On this chapter we will find that people will complain because they feel neglected as thier widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.

The disciples here were so busy that they are neglecting the word of God.
Acts 2:42
42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

We are called to serve but we must know our calling.

When he called you to be a student don't excuse that you need to absent because you need to do the ministry.

What are the requirements to serve God:
Full of the Spirit - be filled with Holy Spirit.
Full of wisdom - the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and to have relationship with Him, reading God's word.

When we are called in the ministry don't think its easy. Don't think you can do everything you want.

Colossians 4:17
New International Version (NIV)
17 Tell Archippus: “See to it that you complete the ministry you have received in the Lord.”

We should know that there's no such thing as perfect church but God will enable us to do his calling and God will use people who wants to serve.

Nice Christian Life Experiences ~~~

Mark 13:14-27 New International Version (NIV) 14 “When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation’[a] standing where it[b] does not belong—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let no one on the housetop go down or enter the house to take anything out. 16 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 17 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 18 Pray that this will not take place in winter, 19 because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again. 20 “If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. 21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it. 22 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even

Mark 13:32-37

Mark 13:32-37 New International Version (NIV) The Day and Hour Unknown 32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be alert[a]! You do not know when that time will come. 34 It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch. 35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
