#GYC12 So Far...
After having a refreshing 12-14 hours sleep on Thursday night, we were excited for GYC to begin! It's been heaps of fun catching up with friends and meeting some new ones as well.
But the thing we've been enjoying the most are the messages. There have been so many great points about the character of God that it's honestly getting a little hard to distinguish where they all came from.
But here are a few points that impacted us:
Friday night
"God does not call the qualified. He qualifies those He calls." - Israel Ramos
Sabbath "We love the world less by loving Jesus more." - Wes Peppers
"Jesus Himself never purchased peace through compromise." - Desire of Ages, E G White - Sabbath School Panel
The character of God needs to be reflected in us. The portrait needs to be completed. Not just a pencil outline, but one that is filled in with paint. - Adam Ramdin (not quoted, just summarised)
"The principle of worldiness is to get, get" (PH 149) Vs "Godliness is diffusive and communicative" (3T 543) - David Asscherick & Jeffrey Rosario
Life is short. In the end, the two most important things that matter are God and people. Use your time focusing on what matters. A relationship with God. Telling and showing people who God is. - David Shin (not quoted, just summarised)In conclusion we ate crapes!
