522


John Bunyan, the author of "Pilgrims Progress," said, "If my life is fruitless, it doesn't matter who praises me, and if my life is fruitful, it doesn't matter who criticizes me."


Laogong managed to drop by having breakfast with me then moving to his meeting. Sometime, little grab of the precious moment is treasurable.

Yesterday helped my boy to go back home and go to his music class by ordering Grab ride. The interesting part is you get to monitor the traffic and the ride by checking the app map. Told my colleague, nowadays, it is convenient to be parents, because we have Google, YouTube and Grab! What I am considering now is, shall I pay for the Grab ride from my end, or I get the boy to pay for the fee? So he can feel the burden of fee charge by not simply asking for convenience. Sometime, as a parent, I find myself is not easy to get the balance point of loving and being considerate to children, at the same time to set boundary to holding children hands tight.




Picking up new short course in the church and in the office. Today, am considering to enrol myself in Japanese language 20 hours lesson. The struggle is, the class is after the office hours, and am gonna reach home at 10pm+ however, if I am explore to this new language, maybe I can speak a little simple Nihongo, or sing a simple Japanese hymn, or serve in Japan missionary? :p

Today devotion message - keep developing your skills


Stretch yourself and learn all you can. Take advantage of every training opportunity to develop your shape and sharpen your serving skill.

In heaven, we are all going to serve God forever. Right now, we can prepare for that eternal service by practicing on earth. Like athletes preparing for the Olympics, e keep training for that big day.

"They do it for a gold medal that tarnishes and fades. You're after one that's gold eternally."
“凡较力争胜的,诸事都有节制,他们不过是要得能坏的冠冕;我们却是要得不能坏的冠冕。”
‭‭ 1 Corinthians哥林多前书‬ ‭9:25‬ ‭
