Hebrews 10:22-25 (The Message)

So let's do it—full of belief, confident that we're presentable inside and out. Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching.
Hebrews 10:22-25 (The Message)

Connect Groups.

Together" in the Bible: Hebrews 10:25 The Christian church is meant to be a community of believers. We are most effective when we're surrounded by fellow believers to correct and encourage us. The apostle Paul here instructs Christians not to neglect the act of meeting up periodically for worship and fellowship. Now we come together as Connect Groups.

What Connect Group(CG) is all about?
Connect groups are groups of friends based on age or location that meet on a regular basis. Together connect groups provide a great foundation to learn more about God and each other on a personal level.

Psalm 1:2-3 (New Living Translation)

Those who are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. Psalm 92:13 (New King James Version)
But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do. Psalm 1:1-3 (New Living Translation)

The Fabric of Humanity


We are the tapestry of His handiworks. We are threads to the fabric of humanity. Each thread is precious and important  both as an individual and as a whole. Each thread needs to be joined and broken at certain point in the fabric formation of humanity. The scarlet thread of redemption joined what has been broken to the wholeness of humanity and image of God. The magnificent beauty of humanity is embedded in the sanctuary of His grace at the Cross.

We are His workmanship & His masterpiece. He welcome us home. Jesus is the main cause for all existence. It is in Him, through Him, for Him that all things are made and now renewed to its original tapestry of His masterpiece.

Every thread will find it's own strength but it does not display beauty for its own sake but together they exhibit His magnificent love. Each thread can't find significant on it's own until woven in the fabric of redemptive grace and connected into God's tapestry.

Together we are a cloth for His divine cause. Jesus is the  woven truth & strength in each of our lives. He was broken for the tapestry of humanity.

He is the thread of reconciliation. He has woven us in the fabric of humanity  through His work of reconciliation. He has the bigger picture and we are part of it. We have been absorbed into His strength and woven into eternity.
Each thread has its significance & its purpose...
Bible says...

"I want you woven into a tapestry of love, in touch with everything there is to know of God. Then you will have minds confident and at rest, focused on Christ, God's great mystery. All the richest treasures of wisdom and knowledge are embedded in that mystery and nowhere else. And we've been shown the mystery!"
Colossians 2:2-3(MSG)

"For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!”For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ."
2 Corinthians 5:19-21(NLT)

" You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvellous—how well I know it.
You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.
How precious are your thoughts about me, O God.
They cannot be numbered!
I can’t even count them;
they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up, you are still with me! "
Psalm 139:13-18(NLT)

“For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].”
Ephesians 2:10(Amplified Bible)
