brothers appreciation nite 2004

i wanna begin by giving thanks & glory to God for this evening's "brothers appreciation nite". i really thank God for His grace and for giving me strength throughout the planning of this event.

i had almost given up on this whole thing earlier this week. but i really really thank God i didn't becos i'd have missed out on something really meaningful. indeed, God has blessed me with so many wonderful brothers (and of cos sisters)-in-Christ : ) it was especially meaningful when all the sisters shared with the brothers why we appreciate them. dinner on the roof garden was great too. it was really exhausting after all the preparation of food at my home, and den finally serving the brothers during dinner. however, i honestly enjoyed myself even thru serving becos i was reminded of how blessed it feels to be giving, and not just recieving.

indeed, this is what being part of God's family is about. exhorting, edifying & encouraging one anor in the Lord...
