My wife and I were at Peacehaven this morning to do chapel services and visit the residents. Many are in wheelchairs, others unable to get out of their beds, many cannot do anything for themselves. Thank God for those who give of themselves to serve others. A wonderful ministry goes on at Peacehaven. Thanks be to God.
“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.”Philippians 4:8
Most if not all reading this blog have a pretty good life.
We have a roof over our heads.
We have sufficient food or water
We have good health care system. Our hospitals are very well equipped. We have efficient doctors, medical staff and social workers.
Most of our basic needs are met; in fact, most of us don’t even lack the things we want
We live in Singapore - pretty safe place. No typhoons, earthquakes and the kind of disasters that affect our neighbours.
We have friends who care.
We can worship in freedom and without fear.
The list can go on.
Charles Dickens said, “Reflect upon your present blessings, of which every man has many - not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.”
Thank you Lord!
