GE: February Prayer Meeting Message Summary: by Mathews and family

2 Cor: 13:5-6 Paul is asking people to examine themselves to see if they pass the test of faith. Paul is asking people to always what is right.

What is Lent season ?
1. Lenten season is the time for preparation.
    We need to prepare ourselves such that we do not succub to the  problems of undue pride. We can feel proud of our good deeds; but shouldnt feel better than others or hurt others. The wrong kind of pride can destroy relationships. (Galatians 6:3-5)
2. Time for discipline
   Give something away regularly.
   Live more for others; less for yourselves
   Invest more in heaven than in worldly goods
   Make Sunday a day of worship and rest
3. Time for special prayers
    Lent is time to pray and understand GOD more.
4. Time for spiritual renewal and growth
    Fast
5. Time to share with others our relationship with Jesus.
    We need to share with others the thought that when there is Jesus in our lives, there is always something to look forward to.
