Romance, spice and oil

Recalling what Pastor shared with us during 2006 Chinese New Year Reunion dinner... They prepared a hand-out with their thoughts on life and its titled the same as this blog post. But pastors words will always carry a heavier weight and convict on a Godlier power.

Romance
It is love...
Life is a journey.
We all want to be successful.
But what is life when you have success but have noone to celebrate with?
Life sure has its ups and downs. But what is life when you have noone to lean on, and overcome difficulties together? What would friends for? Why would God create family.
You need love in life...
You can't say you have love when you are alone. You have love someone. Family? Friends? Mates? People?
No man is a lone island.
We all need people. we all need love.
It is called Romance.

Spice
Food taste awful when it is raw.
They need flavoring. Salt enhances the taste of MOST foods. So do sauces.
They are the spices of gourmet. Without them, food taste bad. No one would look forward to eating.
Spices are the emotions in life. Without emotions, life is bad.
Spices are the colors around. Without colors, life is black and white. Dull.
Spices makes life fun.
Spices makes life colorful.
Spices makes life enjoyable.
Have emotions.

Oil
Oil lubricates. It is very important for machinery.
It makes things smooth.
Smooth is so important.
When something is not smooth, people get fed-up.
Imagine your family car breaks down every 5 minutes while your family is going out for dinner. Atmosphere turns sour, mood flies away.
What is oil?
Oil is like the chemistry that people can have with each other. Whenever you interact, have chemistry.
let people like you... don't offend people.
let people enjoy you... don't be self-absorb/ self-centered/ self-fish.
Oil is liken to the Holy Spirit... When the Holy Spirit is in your life, you become a nice person to hang out with.
It seems as though you have chemistry. It is true.
When you are a true born-again Christian, God is in you... your character change.
People like you.
You have chemistry
There is oil in your inter-relations.
You enjoy company.
company enjoy you.
Life is great.
You will love life.

You have 1 life... live it to the fullest. Don't waste it...
I live my life with my family... with my spiritual family too.
My Ang family.
My Heart of God Church family.
We love our lives.
We help each other enjoy lives.

You can do the same too.
Let Jesus help you.
