Today during my devotion I’m reminded of the BIG family that I have as I accepted Christ as my Savior. Since the aged of 4 I’ve always wanted a younger brother or sister and have asked for one from my parents…. BUT! Of course I never got one as I’m still the only child until today :-) I gave up asking at the aged of 14 as I realize that my parents are too old to have any more babies already.
So since the aged of 4 there was the missing link in my life – a bro or a sis. Always searching and actually had no more hope at the aged of 14. So was pretty sad during my teenage years and from there I turn to making friends. But friends are NOT bro or sis as they will not standby you or come when you need help…. I was hurt and betrayed by my friends many times. NO fulfillment!
However, when I accepted Christ as my Savior it came along with a huge family! And these bro and sis are here to stay! Really a family! Just a phone call and my bro and sis will come running to help/assist! Even at times don’t call also they will come! =-D 1 John 3:1 – said that we are called Children of God, so we are link to a family because of God. And not only that this family is the one that will build us to be whom God wants us to be! – 1 John 3:2.

I’m really blessed with an immediate Christ family as shown above! These are the people who are building me to be whom God wants me to be. Of course the photo is not the complete immediate family of mine – some are missing as were not able to make it to the trip.
Here I would like to thank each one of them for being part of my life and building me to be who I’m supposed to be. Without you my dream of having brothers and sisters will never be fulfilled! I’ve indeed been blessed by you in many many different ways! Thank you!!!

Hi Angela Liew.
Thanks for being our leader and friend. I do admit I learned so much from you and realigned, adjustment and change of mindset to be under your leadership. I know you care for everyone. Sometimes you have to be firm and tough in order to build and strengthen the bros and sis. For that i am grateful
Regards
Marc
