Took it for granted

Today for my Arabic class i had to bring photos of family or friends..only then did i realise i didn't actually bring much photos physically over....except for.....the wonderful photo-plaque You sweet ones made for me before i left for the US!

Praise God haha! SO yeah i kinda introduced you guys to my arabic classmates in arabic..and they were kinda ooh-aahing over such a nice and sweet gift that my friends made for me haha. Only then was i reminded that this was really a very nice gift and sweet thought of you guys, maybe cos it was sitting on my desk everyday...slowly took it for granted haha.

My brothers and sisters in Christ, i thank you for the gift and for your prayers for me. May we always be reminded to thank God for all that is around us and all that we have in our lives, never to take anything for granted, be it our family, our clothes, our friends, our chance to geta degree, or even our tummies.

Here's an intersting link you guys might want to have a look at:

IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
On a lonely stretch of highway just outside ofGroom, Texas (near Pampa) stands a 19 storytall cross that can be seen for miles from anydirection. The arm spans are 110 feet across.It is constructed of a welded steel frameworkcovered with steel sheeting.

May we in our own spheres of influence be the solid cross to show others what Jesus' love does in our lives, and hence be the walking/living 'Fifth Gospel', amen.
