SERMON OF THE DAY:

THEME: PICHINNA ~IPet 1: 13-15

The Pastor took to the pulpit and made his sermon on ‘Maturity.’ He mentioned that he interacted with today’s graduates the other day. He also mentioned that it is the practice of EBCC to hold Graduation Ceremonies for those who attained the age of 18 as they are considered mature. However, one also needs to be baptized to become a full communicant member. Graduation does not mean that one attained freedom to do whatever one likes. Rather, one has reached a stage of life where one can achieve bigger things as one has been equipped with the courses he have taken from Beginner to Senior classes while in BCD. He stressed on the following points:

·         Christ-filled life

·         Life based on Christ

·         Preparing minds

·         The challenges of freedom

·         Life’s struggles

Shirt Rekindling Memory

Wearing a long-sleeved shirt at our office, UPSC, today (17th November 2014) which was bought way back in 2001 while i worked at a small private school (H.E.S.) as a part of staff's uniform still fits me perfectly. This automatically draws lots of thoughts in me. It reminds me of how time flies.

The Shirt stills fitting me perfectly takes me to think as to whether i have grown physically since then. But how can i measure the mental side of growth which i might have achieved? What would be the parameters to scale my maturity? I hope I know...

It's always the nobility, kindness, patience, perseverance, forgiveness and all that wishes one had for the good of others is a positive sign of growth. I though i acquire a bit more of those of late, though much more lies for improvement.

Then, i was a single. But now I am blessed with a loving wife and two lovely angels. My grandpa seems to be happy with us. Thank God!
