Black Tap Burgers And Fireworks (30/7/23) - Poem

-
At Black Tap's Craft Burger, two old souls did sit,
Nearing starvation, not caring a bit.
Burgers, onion rings, fries, and churro shake,
A feast for their bellies, pure joy they would make.

No grand celebration, no anniversary to cheer,
Just two old folks, seeking dinner so dear.
But fate had a plan, a surprise in the air,
As they ventured outside, oh, what a scare!

The sound of explosions, bright lights filled the sky,
Fireworks erupted, catching them by surprise.
The NDP rehearsal, a spectacle so grand,
Turned their after meal into something unplanned.

Burgers all devoured as they gazed at the sight,
Holding hands and  hearts dancing with delight.
The churro shake shook in the belly, as they watched with glee,
What a night at Marina Bay Sands turned out to be.

Burgers for seniors and a toast to the old,
Embracing life's unexpected & untold.
Cos out of the blues, surprises await,
Such amazing Burgers & fireworks that memories create.

But as the spectacle began to fade,
Reality struck, like a painful charade.
A parking fee, so hefty and steep,
Our joyful spirits took a sudden leap.

$29 for parking on exit, what a blow!
For a simple spot to park and go.
My cash card groaned, our faces fell,
As we bid that parking lot farewell.

  ******* Video - Ah Mah's Baptism (07/10/18) ******* What a joyous day it is to be For my MIL to accept Christ at 90 Thot my ears were deceiving me Till my wife & I met her privately And she seems to declare proudly “I am now a Christian you know”, as she professes distinctly In Teochew, no less, I didn’t hear wrongly Loud & Clear, so joyous that I teared freely Once a pious pagan believer, she rejects Christ stubbornly From children to grandchildren, all tried witnessing to her faithfully But her heart was hardened and she rejects vehemently She never wanted to accept Christ personally. But when the Lord calls out to her candidly She cannot escape our Lord God Almighty. The Holy Spirit moves her heart to accept Christ readily. For a jolt came out of the blues suddenly. An old neighbour visited her to share the gospel with her only Sister Ah Noi even got her to say the sinner’s prayer readily. And peace descended upon her immediately. Hallelujah, a saint has return even at...

Handy Reference To Scripture Guide

-

I recently discovered an insightful article that provides guidance on how to reference scripture when we are facing difficulties, depression, or worries.  Often, in moments of sadness or despair, it can be challenging to find the right verses that offer comfort and hope. To make this process easier, I have added links of KJV verses to every situation u are in, ensuring you have immediate access to the scripture you need at your fingertips. This resource is especially valuable for those times when feelings of sadness, depression, challenges, worries, fear, or trauma can make it difficult to seek guidance from God at an instance.  Having a dedicated referral page can serve as a helpful tool for all GYFers, allowing you to easily find the verses that resonate with your situation and provide the support you need. There are verses and even entire chapter for you to look up to. By the grace of God  kindly feedback if you find any flaws in the compilation, becos I am as imperfec...
