The Right Source

“How was your Mandarin lesson going on?” A concern colleague asked me.
I sighed and said “Difficult! I had a basic Mandarin before I attended this course, but some words I pronounced them incorrectly. It is so hard to correct my pronounciation.” I continued “A friend of mine who didn’t have basic Mandarin, she can pronounce the words better than I as she is learning directly from the teacher for 1st time (the right source)”

I found it is very important for us to learn something right for the 1st time. Otherwise it will turn up like me. Having said that, it was always a chance to change if we are willing to do it.

In Proverbs 22:6 said: “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” Do take note of this if you have a child or when you are teaching someone. Point them to right source from the beginning. Our one & only right source for life is Jesus Christ!

Beauty is fleeting

In Emmy Awards celebration, all celebrities dressed so lovely and charming. Indeed they are beautiful people. When I looked at myself, "Ahh... getting older... tired... where is the physical charm?" *sigh* “Can I get younger & prettier which I desire? Of course it is impossible. Well… does it really matter for being beautiful?”

In Proverbs 31:30 said “Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” It is not wrong to be charmed & beauty but they will be worn out by time. However fearing God can last forever. It’s that encouraging? You don’t need to be rich, clever or beauty to come to God. If you have sincere heart to fear the Lord, you will be praised! Why don’t you come to Him today?
