2day we have cg @ jeremy's hse in jurong east. Only 5 of us were present. The rest couldnt make cos of reasons like (a) mum's birthday (he almost forgotten abt it), etc. During the preaching session. Our care leader taught us The Secret of a Satisfying Life (How to enjoy the rest of ur life) from the verses Philippians 4:10-13.

There are 4 ways how to experience real contentment:
(a) Learn to Avoid Comparison
(b) Learn to Adjust With Change
(c) Learn to Draw On God Christ's Power
(d) Learn to Trust God To Meet My Needs

(a) Learn to Avoid Comparison

3 Misconceptions about happiness:
(1) I must have what others have to be happy which is myth and not true.
(2) I must be liked by everyone in order to be happy which is not necessary needed.
(3) Having more will make me more happily.

(b) Learn to Adjust With Change

Ups and downs are caused by physically, emotionally, mentally. There's nth certain, just accept changes in ur life. 3 types of circumstances:
(1) Those i can control and I do
(2) Those i can control and I dont
(3) Those i cannot control and there are many of them in life

Keys to adjust:
(1) have sense of humour*
*humour -> ability to laugh at ourselves
(2) learn to be able to have a stable life
(3) dun let problems affect u

(c) Learn to Draw On God Christ's Power (Dun look at our ownself)

If depend on power, a person will get frustrated & tired easily.

The whole thing ended 10pm. I reach home 1130pm. (From chi gdn to tamp took abt 50mins of journey time plus standing throughtout the journey).
