Today's preaching
Today's message was meaningful. Talked about faith vs fear. How fear prevents us from having faith in God.
I like this saying:
"The greatness of a person is in the measure of his surrender" William Booth, founder of Salvation Army.
I think this saying is so cool, so counter-culture. We tend to measure a person by what the person possess. Degree, wealth, woman etc. But it is how much a person surrender to God that is great. Someone who gives.
God, help me to be someone who surrender all to You. Amen

SYF Band
12 April - the day for our school band, after all the practices, man-hours, be it shine or rain, they were there in the field. It was magnificance. Our band did well, we are proud of them. The cheer was great. West Spring rocked the National Stadium (Shall write on another day about National Stadium). I think the band members were very disappointed to retain a silver. I think they have achieved. Maintaining a silver is no simple feat, for three time. I wish for the band, they will get a gold one day, to reward their hard work. They really worked very very hard. Their spirit was high. So was the rest of the population and the parents too!! They were there to support and cheer all the ways. I am proud to be part of the community.
I watched the rest, including those which got Gold with Honours. I have to admit that they are a league above, be it the concept, the uniformity, the one-ness. They could just much and change so fast.

In memory of my Grandfather
My grandfather was a capable man. He raised 12 children single-handedly. 6 boys and 6 girls. Some gone to uni, one even gone to UK to study and has a PhD. All made him proud by making a honest living. Like him, a honest man. He was a fish monger along Singapore River and managed to supply fish to a few restaurants then. He retired in his 50s when the government wanted to clean up Singapore River.
He did not really retired. He changed his role from one who was making money to one who manages the household, from marketing to cooking, to watching over his grandchildren.
What can i learn from him? Honesty, tenacity, pride.
