Fun Time with Abby... Family Fun in the Evening...

This morning for our date, we first went to our old house... They needed a few things done... I had cut tennis balls for the chairs. They needed WD 40 for several places. We helped them with a few odd jobs and then went to breakfast! YIPPY!

Abby's internship ended at 12:30, so we met up at a Cantonese restaurant. What a feast... Then we walked around the area as there were so many shops. A newly opened shop had second hand goods... A bit expensive, but nice stuff. Abby got a Puma windbreaker for 30US$. Isaiah got a pair of Vans shoes for 30US$. He wasn't with us but I lined him pictures and there were several items that were perfect for him. We even saw two nice suits... So, he will have to go there and try those on. We had fun!

We came home just in time for Mom. I had packed up the leftover Cantonese fried noodles, which she loved! I think she could have eaten two portions!

I went for a run after Mom went to bed and later on in the evening, we played Mahjong and had Family Time!

Daily Lovely Insight:

Sometimes people don't appreciate what they have because they are too focused on what they don't have... And sometimes, people buy without even thinking of why they are buying... So, today, I was at the recycling area in our complex when I see a Nikon camera with a lens and the battery charger. It was a digital Nikon DX. I brought it up and charged the battery and the camera works perfectly well... That camera and the lens are like 500US$! Someone just threw it away... 

Perhaps we do the same in our walk with Jesus... we don't truly appreciate His love and His mercy... And when we don't appreciate the cost of being reconciled, it's easy to let the world invade our attitudes and thoughts and choices, instead of us influencing the world. We don't have the resolve to stand against temptations... May God be gracious to us... May His way be made known on earth! May our lives reflect the truth of His Word!

Seek Him First!
