On the last day of 2011. I was invited by one of my member’s family to go over to have a dinner. I was feeling very drained by all that have happened.. Still, I went ahead of it to be there.
This whole dinner changed me and kind of like pick me up before the year ends.
I was fellowshipping with the parents and they were sharing with me about the culture of their family…
They designed the hall like a home in US. Everything seems so cozy and very home. They have family pictures all around… They will change the pictures every three years. They will invite professional photographer to take pictures for them…
One thing that touches me the most is that the dad was sharing abt how once a week they will meet to talk.
They talk about things like economy, prices, languages and more. By that, the dad was saying he wants to help the children understand the world better..
They will do activities together such as decorating the house for Christmas, shopping together for their photoshoot..
They will meet to even discuss what course the children want to embark for the new year.
I thought to myself, ” why is there so many failures in relationship in this world?”. The key to that is poor communication.. I would say, I’m not a gd 100% good communicator.. We are all imperfect people and I’m still learning how to be a good communicator. I have never come to a conclusion before that every failure in a rs is always one person’s fault. NO! It is always a both sided thing..
I remembered listening to this sermon by Pastor Kong “the matter of your heart”. This sermon really teaches us how to express and communicate our feelings..
We are all still in the learning process
On a more lighthearted note ” I’m gg to BKK!! Let’s shop till we drop!”
Have an awesome week ahead:)
