OMG. this guy is damn free PLEASE.

Reflection of the Day

through thick & thin

Individualism indeed does exalts self and exiles God. That also undermines relationships and community.

We live in an age of broken relationships. In Singapore, about 6000 marriages ended in divorce in the year 2004. It has increased three-fold in the last decade.

The outlook for relationships appears grim. Advances in I.T. have made it easier to communicate. However, these modern forms of communication are highly impersonal. Who would want to meet over a cup of coffee with the invention of sms and email?

Globlalisation has also quickened the erosion of relationships. In order to seize job oppotunities overseas, mobility and independence are necessary. Today, everyone falsely believes that truly liberated people are not tied down by traditon or family. The lone ranger is portrayed as HIP and HAPPENING. To depend on others is seen as a sign of weakness. But does this stae of affairs please God?

Relationships are important, because that's the only way we can grow into Christlikeness. To know the true meaning of Love, you have to be able to give and receive love from someone else.

We learn the Meaning of sacrifice when we see it modeled in the lives of those who care for us. We unlearn selfishenss when we are able to put others first. All these invaluable lessons can only take place in the context of relationships.

Singles: Have you isolated yourself from meaningful relationships with members of both genders?

Parents: How in touch re you with YOUR CHILDREN?
