Great, great, great. Noli Manuel, missionary to the Middle east, talked about the reality of God's greatness as he gave the first talk of the 19th SFC ICON.
Featuring a ride in a “time machine” that took everyone back to the beehive 1960's, the groovy 70's up to the present and a trip around the world, Noli's asked the singles to do the following:
- Remember God's greatness. The path to holiness is to remember that HE is in control. Most of us remember an encounter with our Great God during our Christian Life Program.
Blessed to Bless
- Share in His greatness. Created in God's image and likeness, we are all destined for greatness.
Noli shared about overhearing an SFC say, “I want to have my moment with my GG in Bohol.” Noli instead encouraged everyone, “Do not look forward to moments like that. Look forward to moments with God!”
He went on to say, “Don't seek (out) your GG, seek God's greatness!” Seek His greatness first and He may give you your GG.
The Lord is asking us to give our entire being, we are not blessed for nothing. Noli went on to say, "If there is LOL, there is B2B or Blessed to Bless."
- Live great.
How do we live a great life? It does not mean having an easy life. It means being:
1.) Grateful in all things. We have to be grateful even more during the difficult times.
2.) Ready for the mission. There is an urgency in what we do. God also shows us His faithfulness when we go on mission.
3.) Excited for the future. If you believe in God's promise, claim it! To be excited for the future means to be “on the edge of our seats”.
Ending the session, Noli told all the SFCs present,”Do not settle but always aspire for God's best for you.”
