Matthew 20:1-16 (parable of the workers in the vineyard)

This parable reminds me of how conceited we can be and how we completely forget the goodness of Christ when we first tasted it. In our everyday lives, especially during work, we complain. I for one, whine a lot. We compare ourselves with our peers and even our previous work circumstances. Times may be tough and things change, not for the better but for the worse. It brings out the worst in me becos I complain; losing sight that it was me who first prayed for open doors. God may give seemingly different rewards, which at times may seem unfair by society's standards, but in all if it, God knows what He's doing! We won't know but God is good! This is a reminder from today's Daily Bread reading.

Quote from Daily Bread: All you need to know to be contented us this - God is good.

What a nice start to the day knowing that God sent a nice lady to tell me not to take the MRT station's lift becos it is unstable. So often that city dwellers like us just move quickly without taking a moment to just be gracious and extend social grace to strangers around us. What that lady said wasn't a big gesture but it really remind me about what a Christian ought to be. :) Have a good day!

Life is precious. And nothing is so real as God's hand and might in the creation of life.

Heard that a dear colleague of mine was told by her gynae that they couldn't detect the heartbeat of her 7wk old fetus.. :( she was told to perform a procedure tomorrow but we are asking her to obtain a second opinion.

If God so decides that they should have a child, I'm sure a miracle can happen! Besides, the gynae could be wrong because there can be times where baby's heartbeat are less readily detected.

My prayers goes out to her and her hubby.. Pls let baby stay! They have been trying hard for it
