There has been no Internet connectivity since last Friday. Anyway, Jason Loh from the IT department came and within minutes fixed the problem for us. We thank God for our friends at the IT Department who are always ready to help us when we need them.
We were at Changi Corps last Sunday to conduct the meeting and Self Denial Altar Service. Our day began early. Charles and Helen Lim and their son Ian were here at Praisehaven to fetch us to Changi. We had a great time of fellowship. Good to meet up with our Changi comrades again and to hear their testimonies of the Lord's leadings in their lives.
After the meeting, Charles and Helen took us out for lunch at the SIA Club House. Both Charles and Helen work for SIA. I have known Charlie for many years. We were all part of Balestier Corps (church). I recall I was at the Corps many years ago when announcement was made that a new baby boy was born to the Lim family and they have named him Charles! I was a teen ager then.
We thank God for friends. They are God's gifts to us.
A British publication once offered a prize for the best definition of a friend. Among the thousands of answers received were the following:
"One who multiplies joys, divides grief, and whose honesty is inviolable."
"One who understands our silence."
"A volume of sympathy bound in cloth."
"A watch that beats true for all time and never runs down."
The winning definition read: "A friend is the one who comes in when the whole world has gone out."
