BTLN UPDATE - SERGEANT INDUCTION NIGHT


 
 

Congrats to Ben Nicolson, the 28th Sergeant of Btln 3739! Ben officially became Sergeant this Wednesday night at Btln! Ben Jepsen, Jason Hayashi and Devin Chursinoff were there to present Ben his Jersey! (Three awesome examples for Ben to follow!)

Congrats also to Jakob! Jake won the Helmet for the first time this year! It was Ben, Noah and Jake at the end, with Jake outlasting Ben and Noah. I think we are going to be hearing a lot from these guys this year!

We played Handball for the first time this year. Ben's team jumped out to a 9-2 lead, but my team battled back to take a 15-14 lead! In the end though, Ben's team was too strong, beating us 23-19!

This week in Bible study we looked at the story of Job. (Job 1:6-22) Our title was "God is in charge!"

It important for us to notice that Satan still answers to God. Even though Satan hates God he must still answer to him, God is still in control!

Job 1:6-7   One day the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came with them. The Lord said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.”

After God brags about Job, he allows Satan to test Job. God puts limitations on what Satan can do to Job.

Job 1:12   The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.”

Satan is allowed to take everything from Job other than his wife and his own life! Job's response is amazing!

Job 1:20-22   At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship and said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.” In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.

Job worships God!

Why would God allow this to happen to Job? It is not easy for us to understand. We know that God is watching out for us, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

1 Corinthians 10:13   No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.


God will help us endure the storms of life!

Hebrews 13:5b-6   God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”
