A revival

Would appear as if my blog has revived. =P

Had lunch with a friend from my NUS days yesterday. Hadn't seen him in 2 years although we would chat online occasionally. Made me realise that I really should discipline myself to keep in touch with my friends on a regular basis.

Yesterday, someone commented that some ppl get so involved with their bf/gf that they don't really bother with their friends anymore. I hope I'm not like that, although I wonder if I would arrange to meet these friends more frequently if I wasn't attached.

Yesterday's sermon was about doing community work. The pastor quoted several verses from the Bible about how we should help the poor and stand up for them:

Psalm 103:8
Isaiah 41:17
Deuteronomy 15:7-11, 14-15, 17-22
Proverbs 14:31, 19:17, 21:13, 31:8-9
Acts 2:44, 4:34, 11:28

If you don't have a Bible, you can read the verses off the internet.

The pastor also read testimonials of the "poor" - defined as those who were in pain, in need or under-privileged... The experience was quite stirring. The pastor ended with a call to ask those who wanted to commit at that instance to help the poor when the opportunity arises. I was tempted to stand but held back by thoughts of how busy I was and would be. Although the pastor had said that busyness should not be an excuse, I couldn't help but let it pull me back. But the sermon definitely made me realise that I could do more to help others.

1 John 3:18
"Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth."

Chihuahua
No bones about it, you're an energetic, devoted Chihuahua. For your breed, size definitely doesn't matter. After all, sometimes the best things (diamonds, car keys, Godiva truffles) come in small packages. Honest and straightforward, you're never afraid to speak up for what you believe in, especially if it's a cause near and dear to your heart. Having such a passionate personality can come with a few drawbacks, though. You can be moody at times, and people often find it hard to live up to your high standards. But once you make a friend, it's for life. Saucy and intense, your energy and unfailing loyalty make you a great companion. Woof!
