Judging others

One fine day Roy complained about Don the gossiper.
The next day, Roy started gossiping about others.
When Liz learnt about it, Liz pointed it out loudly and made Roy furious and walked out banging the door.

It was so easy judging others.
Matthew 7: 1-5: "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye".

Later Liz realized herself was wrong she should have spoken to Roy nicely. Be careful what we say and what we do. Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. [Proverbs 12:18]

So Sweet 2 Trust in Jesus

After BSF class, this beautiful song was still in my mind burning like fire and reminded me to trust God.
Trully enough my simple prayer got answered immediately. :)

'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus
’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His Word;
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know, “Thus says the Lord!”

I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end.

Chorus
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!

Proverbs 3:5,6
"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

Thing happens for a reason

My Korea trip was wonderful and fruitful as I spent the journey with my parents, siblings and their family members which are 10 of us in total.

As reaching home to Singapore, at the airport we could not find a luggage belonged to my sister in law. It took us a couple of hours to know that someone took a wrong luggage by mistake.

I volunteered to company with my brother and sister in law at Changi airport (lost & found counter) whereas the rest of my family members heading home to rest.

Later we realised that my brother's prepaid SIM card no longer has value hence he used my mobile to call the party to exchange the luggage.

It was a tiring and unpleasant experience at that moment.

Then when queuing for taxi home, we met my brother’s lost friend whom he met during his honeymoon trip to Japan. My brother & sister in law were happy and quickly forgot about the previous unpleasant event.

Life is unpredictable. We may be unhappy on the current incident we are facing now but behind the scene there may be a good will. Live a life blissfully!

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." [Romans 8:28]

In deed it was a magnificent experience & blessing. God blessed the trip and complete it with a bowl of cherries. Isn’t that sweet?
