Proverbs 3

Today i read Proverbs 3, and verse 3 really spoke to me.

"Never let loyalty and kindness get away from you. Wear them like a necklace, write them deep into your heart"

- Friends
Its honestly hard sometimes when you're so passionate about an idea and your friends just pour cold water on it. Its tough when they don't encourage. And honestly, what i used to do was to go to other friends and share with them my passion and sometimes even dishonouring my old friend by telling my new friends about him/her.

---> It reminds me that loyalty the faithfulness or a devotion to a person or cause. (according to wiki) is truly devotion! meaning you devote time and effort no matter how much you think this friendship is a lost cause.

-Family
Pastor Vic sharing about honouring my parents was very strange for me, because i seemed to have learnt that lesson 2 weeks ago the hard way. But it is true that sometimes i think God gave me the wrong family to be in. How can it be that things are always so tough? But God says He knows. And whenever i think of other families being more "perfect" than mine, though i can't do anything about it my thoughts are always "i wish i had that family" andit reminds me to be loyal.

-Beggars
Whenever they come i always used to question, are they really telling the truth about their supposed husbands in hospital etc. But i realized, kindness does not care. And thats why i always spend the one dollar to buy the tissue though the lady might lie/cheat me. Its only a dollar, if i am not kind in singapore, how am i supposed to be kind elsewhere (that isn't my homeland)

It is really an encouragement to see everyone post :) i hope that more will do so. :D
