President Chow and President Yu
|
Commissioning |
President Chow’s address was titled “Serve
wholeheartedly.”Using John 12:26“whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be,”Dr Chow explained how serving God is not going wherever you want to go, but rather it means following in the steps of Jesus. What this means is further spelled out in Mark 8:34, “whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.” The result of submitting oneself to God is that “my Father will honor the one who serves me.” As a concrete example of this, Dr Chow cited Mark 14. In this passage, Jesus comments on the woman who anointed him at Bethany by saying, “she has done a beautiful thing to me.” We pray that each of our graduates will be both a dynamic witness to the Gospel and a living gift to the people they are called to serve.
