Harry

a Biblical thought...
A man of knowledge uses words with restraint, and a man of understanding is even-tempered. (Proverbs 17:27)

a Book thought...
Perhaps up to 20% of one’s work time should be invested in it: in advanced technology
industries the frontiers of knowledge are moving so fast that this is about the time people need to stay up-to-date and also to plan and structure their professional development. (p164)
a Dave thought...
I was reminded last night while watching an interview featured on the Foxtel show ‘On the Couch’ of the impressive qualities of Collingwood footballer Harry O’Brien. We were privileged back in January to have this Brazilian born Christian share with our 600 plus crowd at INSANE. On that occasion he spoke of his desire to serve others and the work he has done volunteering with Brendan Nottle on the 614 outreach vehicle. He also read from the scripture from Matthew 5:14-16 and how he believes we are called to be light in this dark world.

"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”
If you’d like to see the interview from INSANE 09 the video is online. To do so you can join the INSANE fan page on Facebook as we are already over 300 fans and as we head to Jan 11-15, 2010 it looks like it will be another amazing week together. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/video/video.php?v=109466370632

Just a thought.
