All of us go through different moments in our lives
some moments of joy, some moments of sadness,
some moments of gain and some moments of loss.
They are all but a breeze;
for as quick as they come,
so it is as they depart without a sign.
Soon those moments become memories,
the basic essential of each unique individual.
How many times have you secretly hope in your heart,
"Come sweet memories" and "Go sour, heart-breaking memories"?
(Pause)
How many times have you desire gain than loss?
(Pause)
Yet those moments are not within our manoeuvre.
So how then do you consider joy, sadness, gain and loss?
Would you give up all for moments of joy or gain?
Sadly, some do, imprefectly.
Possessions above kinship;
Conditions before love;
Performance before praise ....
Remember that the children are watching and following our footsteps,
Be wary not to stumble them with our ways;
Not to cause hurts with our inadequencies;
Not to overpower them with our unheard needs.
Blood is still thicker than water and
Love is undaunting.
(Pause)
Reflect those moments again.
They cannot be undone but a lesson lies behind each moments.
Have you learnt it?
The Lord says this :
Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also (luke 12:24).
