Happy Birthday

Yesterday I spent my most enjoyable day with the fellowship groups from St.Andrew's & Toowong Baptist church having lunch at the Singapura Restaurant. It was a nice surprise.

Thanks Anthony for buying me an easel three weeks before, Ruby and Oliver for organising lunch, the cake & the gift. Thanks Kathy, Julie & Mari for joining us. We had two big tables with delicious food like Nasi Lamak. Hainanese chicken , Laksa...........Yum!! :-)

After lunch, we attended a church seminar held by a guest speaker Pastor So. The topic was on family & marriage counselling. Pastor So is a very experienced counsellor who currently resides and works in Canada. He delivered a dynamic & down to earth talk, illustrated a precise picture of current problems in marriage and families. His serious humour & pin-pointed sermon added a special flavour to the talk. I was enlightened by his suggestions that our value on marriage is strongly influenced by postmodernisim. It's a totally different value to what God wants us to be and how we should live. I was reminded of the kind of world we are living in & how satan from time to time look for chances to attack us. I was wondering as we are opened to different cultures, new experiences and information, it increases the chance that we get distracted and confused. We need to pray to God that the Holy spirit & His words would always protect us from confusion, keep our hearts & mind clear. He is Good , prayers is the only way to keep us from straying.

Thank you very much, I was blessed on this birthday.
