Our Corps Officer (pastor) and a number of ladies were away for the Women's camp, so we did the meeting at William Booth Corps.I chose for my text: "Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit" says the Lord Almighty. Zechariah 4: 6. We focused our thoughts on Zechariah's vision and the challenge to Zerubbabel and his small team of followers who were feeling very discouraged, to carry on building the Temple.
We all get discouraged at times. The mountains of difficulty seem insurmountable, but with the Lord, the most impossible mountains can be flattened. So let us heed the words of the Song writer, "Let us press on then, never despair, Live above feeling, Victory's there." It's a long time since we sang this beautiful song (No 773)
We have been much encouraged by the many messages from friends, both local and overseas who remember our wedding anniversary. Last year was our Golden, so we had big celebration - once in a life time! But not this year. However a number of our friends invited us to lunch and dinner. In the evening, our daughter Gladys and family gave us a special treat - steamboat dinner at The Seventh Story Restaurant at the Barrage, Marina Bay.
We thank God for 51 years of very happy and blessed married life. The Lord has been very good to us.
