Grace

Luke 15. The Parable of the Lost Son. This is perhaps the most touching parable in all of Jesus' parables. The prodical son returns home. It pictures how great the grace of God is that when we have strayed or sinned against him but repented, He is gracious to restore us from destitute to full sonship. However we must be careful not to be like the elder brother (Pharisees) who is self righteous and jealous. God welcomes sinners and PURSUES them. He goes through all means to retrieve a sheep that has chose to go its own way. A sheep that he has spent so much time grooming, taking care of, making sure it stays in the correct path. It is that important to God. This thought just blows me away. How many times have i strayed knowingly or unknowingly away from my Lord only to have him receive me with open arms again despite of my wilfulness and unfaithfulness. Thank You Lord. May I have a shepherd's heart like Jesus.

Just received a tuition assignment in Jurong East. Primary Six. My first meeting with her is on Monday 7 pm. 20 bucks an hour. That will be $240 per month. On top of $360 from mum, that will be $600 a month for me from July onwards. =) My tuition agent Rohana is quite nice and chirpy. Hopefully everything turns out fine. Pray that God uses me to touch the life of the tuition kid and her family.
