God who is faithful to carry out the good work He has begun in you - Phil1:6

If God has brought you to it, He will bring you through it- Cherrie

12 Seek God
Seeking God is not only a quest for the lost, but is also to characterise the life of the found. Seeking God means that in all you do, you keep His honor in your mind, His Word in your heart, and His glory as your goal- so you are seeking to actually know Him and make Him known.

23-25 Listen to others, speak to others, you can't make it alone! 3 title in a sentence

Hebrew 3.
" 12 See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. 13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. 14 We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end."

Just today I got a rebuke from being boastful by my sister in law. I didn't feel that way and tried to defend 'me'. Despite what really matters is what's the impact to others already! 
Then I read note to self: listen to others. Often I want God's wisdom privately ( Scripture or praying), but one of the main ways are through others. 
"... Answers to be found in the counsel of friends"- Proberb 24:6 
Additionally another benefit: I am protected from the hardening influences of sin too :3 

I've also been questioning about my too much KM community. Feeling like I should go out but I read these 3 parts that explain the importance of church as a community! Hence I decided to stay for now.

You are proud- strike through as I was facing it myself , let humility win over me :) 
Even Jesus is humble, I will follow His life principles

John 17:1-3
17 After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed:

“Father, the hour has come.Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. 2 For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. 3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
