are you DRUNK enough?

How can our spiritual lives be related with the life of a drunkard? Or rather, what can we learn from their lifestyle that can enhance our personal spiritual walk in Christ?

Well, this was the topic that our dear Sharon Marie shared last weekend. We started of with a time of fellowship and games followed by praise and worship. This is a few things I would like to share on this interesting topic that she shared last weekend.

Being “drunk” means to be under the influence of something, which most commonly is associated with alcohol. Similarly, our lives ought to always be led by the leading of the Holy Spirit.

Firstly, a drunkard is never alone. They’re always with their “kaki botol” buddies when they get drunk and are having a jolly good time. We ought to be just like that, always with our brothers and sisters in Christ, worshiping and fellowshipping together.

To a drunkard, everything is beautiful. Therefore, he looks at everything and he sees the beauty in it. We all should take off our sunglasses of criticism and look at everyone as being specially made by God. We’d also take pleasure in serving in the church.

A drunkard also experiences hangover. It is the after effects of the reducing alcohol in their system. Similarly, we have to constantly replenish ourselves as we tend to drift away from the His ways. That’s why we have to always read his word and have an on-going relationship with Him.

So let us all remember to be always spiritually inclined to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
God bless you and hope you all have a blessed week ahead :)


ps: Thank you dear sharon marie for sharing with us! Truly, we were blessed..

Saturday Review

Hello everyone,

Hope that you're all doing great! Here's a quick review of what happened the last week during our weekly youth gathering.

We started off with a time of testimony, to hear what are some of the good things God has done in our lives the past week. After that we went in to praise and worship session. It's always great to be able to do so for our God. :)

Joanna and Vanessa then went on to share with us about the importance of encouragement. We learnt about the importance of encouragement in our daily lives, and how as often as possible we need to exalt one another, as it is said in Hebrews 3:13. Also like how in Acts 9: 23-27, how Barnabas exalted Saul while no one believed that he was now a disciple.

So everyone, remember to always encourage and support your family and friends! :)


After the teaching, we had a surprise Birthday and Farewell party for Henndrie! We all had some delicious food prepared for everyone and it was a blast!

To Henndrie,
Have a safe trip back.
We pray that Jesus will guide you and
protect you always!
love, the SALT KL
