Fellowship with friends

Wonderful to meet old friends again! Our friends have brought much blessing into our lives.

We were invited by Mr. and Mrs. Lim Tee Houw to lunch at Turf City. We have known this couple for many years. Mrs. Lim Soo Noi was my wife's Sunday school teacher some sixty plus years ago. Mr. Lim is quite frail now and wheel chair bound.

There were salvationists of Central Corps many years ago - he the Corps Secretary and she the Corps pianist. Later they transferred their membership to Wesley Methodist Church and have remained Methodists to this day.

We have remained good friends all these years. When we were stationed Malaysia and overseas, every time we visited Singapore they would have us for a meal. They have been very hospitable and kind to us.

"True friends are the finest of all God's gifts,
They are precious and very rare.
They come with a love that laughs and lifts
When the burdens are hard to bear.
They are true when the sun is ablaze in the skies,
When life is bright and fair.
When sorrow and pain has dimmed your eyes,
Their compassion and tenderness there. (Lorie C Gooding)
