Some updates!
LCS retreat was great! Even though I was quite skeptical of a combined retreat, I was pleasantly surprised by the warmness of seeing so many Lutherans together!
Also, this sunday is back to 10things! 8 blessings to claim.
Aunty Seok Hoon is leading the session. So look forward to something fun yet an good session of learning God's word.
Well, I personally have something to share. I've started a new online ministry called "God knows you" ministries. It's still under construction. Only the basic skeleton is up. The whole website should be up prayerfully by september 06.
But but but... I wrote an article under my inspirationals section already. It's actually regarding this painful world we live in. About how we still can see God working and doing His "thing" in such a world. =] It was inspired by last sunday's sermon preached by Aunty Seok Hoon.
It's a little lengthy but hey, I wanted some substance. haha.
Please check it out HERE.

I WILL NEVER WASTE MY FOOD AGAIN =/
This photo is the "Pulitzer prize" winning photo taken in 1994 during the Sudan famine. The picture depicts a famine stricken child crawling towards an United Nations food camp, located a kilometer away.
The vulture is waiting for the child to die so that it can eat it. =[ This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place as soon as the photograph was taken.
Three months later he committed suicide due to depression.
This was found in his diary,
"Dear God, I promise I will never waste my food no matter how bad it can taste and how full I may be. I pray that He will protect this little boy, guide and deliver him away from his misery. I pray that we will be more sensitive towards the world around us and not be blinded by our own selfish nature and interests.
I hope this picture will always serve as a reminder to us that how fortunate we are and that we must never ever take things for granted. "

Not sure if you guys had received this email. But this story really struck me. I think we often forgot how fortunate we are in Singapore. I'm not about to become some Civics and Moral Ed teacher but really, we take so many things for granted !!! =/
