Presidential Election 2023 (Aug 2023)-Poem

 *Presidential Election 2023

A Personal Christian Perspective, in poem.
********
Here comes Singapore's 5th presidential race.
With candidates vying for the highest place.

All their credentials, connections, strengths and weakness.
3 potential leaders each with their uniqueness.

One with white hair, wisdom etched in time.
Knowledge and experience, a wealth so prime.
Herein the nagging question... is change in his sight?
Will he bring changes, or uphold the status quo tight?

Then there's one with thinning black hair ready for a fight,
Old but bold with promises shining bright.
Wonder if he is too earnest & too driven?
Will he be able to handle the pressure once he has risen?

Lastly, the candidate with no hair to show.
Well connected politically we all know,
He has strong history but is there a chance for a fresh start.
Can he distance himself & presides with an independent heart?

But the common men hold the power,
To vote or not vote, or spoil the ballot hour,
Voting preferences may differ but let us not be divided.
Our friendship and kinship should never be neglected.

The daily life we lead, the constitutions we abide.
Is not easily changed regardless of who presides.
After the election fever subsides.

So treasure relationships more & love your kins.
Let not differences in votes cause a rift within.

For above all else is our ultimate guide,
Our Lord Jesus Christ, always by our side,
He impacts our lives now and forever,
Far greater than any President's endeavor.

In this presidential race, let's keep in mind,
That unity and love are what we should find,
White, black or no hair matters not, it's the heart that counts.
And in our relationships, let harmony mount.
After all we are all Kaki lang, that really count.

So after the votes are cast, and the results are read,
Remember the only ONE that truly gives our daily bread.

He is our ultimate "President", the Lord above.
Our hope & peace who gives us unconditional love.

Whoever u may desire as President in your thoughts
But here's a biblical reminder less we forgot
...for there is no power but of God,
the powers that be are ordained of God.
(Rom 13:1)

  ******* 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...
