Hi Guys,
I'm so glad to hear that it has been a wonderful journey for many of you as you serve for SGB. Lixuan, its always so encouraging to hear your share. You always find precious moments of thanksgiving to share in everythin you do. Keep going, one day you may become the next Auntie Lixuan Theresa of Singapore....:)
Just to share, I once read a story of a lady together with her 2 fellow sisters who took shelter the poor and unfortunate from the streets. One night, they found 3 homeless ladies and took them in. The leader of the group told the other 2, you take care of the other 2 ladies, let me take care of this woman (The lady in the worst condition). They wash and cleaned them. Changed them into new clothing and tug them into a nice bed and warm blankets. The lady she took care of died the next day.
But she would never forget that two words this dying woman said to her that nite. Looking at her eye to eye, she mouthed these words, "Thank you". How precious were these words from a woman who had nothing to offer, yet we know the words anyone offers in their deathbed would be the most precious. These two words burned into a movement that has since shook the world through this fine lady of the Millenium, Mother Theresa.
I hope that we will remember that in this Christmas season, coincidentally also the Season of Giving. That even through the tiring and tough times of this SGB as we all practice the spirit of giving will ultimately also receive the Spirit of Love just as Sister Theresa did that one nite. May we learn to treasure those around us, both the less fortunate as well as the friends around us.
THANK YOU !
Lots of Love,
Danny
