I accidently found an old friend's blog and found this article posted last year.
The title itself makes me wanna read it further till the end.
And since our upcoming Testimonial Sharing on this Wednesday is about 'True Love', i'm thinking of posting this up just to share with you all...
This may sounds too Bible Class---INGTM (meminta kebenaran tuk pinjam kejap, Cikgu Horatio), but please bear with me for awhile. Before you continue reading, let us open up our Bible and turn to a famous verses of 1Corinthians 13: 1-8a. I bet some of you have already memorized it by heart don't you? Some may start singing the song that we sang on last Sunday Service---which was insprired by these verses. Never mind, continue doing what you are doing with a joyful heart knowing that Christ is with us. Meditate awhile on the Word of God before you proceed to the next paragraph ya~~~^*
What do Love means to a 4-8 year old...... Slow down for mere three minutes to read this. It is so worth it. Touching words from the mouth of babes. A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, 'What does love mean?' The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what would you think:
'When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint
her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love.'

Next> Now don't tell me you don't know what love is...
Say a simple sincere prayer that comes from your fragile little heart...
If what you are doing is out of love that is Christ centered, just do it no matter what others may think cuz what matter the most is what God would think.
It was touching. Especially when u get disappointed with what is happening on u. Images from the past kept appearing before me. I remembered the day my grandma passed away, the day I sat for my piano exam, the day when a 10-year-old girl suffers from leukemia laid on the hospital bed... Lets think like a child, this world is actually not that bad.
-Love, is in the air-
