Toddler's Creed

Acts 20:32-38

32 "Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

33 I have not coveted anyone's silver or gold or clothing.

34 You yourselves know that these hands of mine have supplied my own needs and the needs of my companions.

35 In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"

Bee's Thoughts:

The Apostle Paul is my example for living. As he advocated, I like to live within my means and I don't like to owe anybody anything (especially money) except for big item such as loan for house or car. A few friends did ask me to take up a study loan since I am thinking of stopping my study as a result of not working full time to finance it. But I don't feel comfortable doing it... I rather stop studying instead of being in debt. Jesus has always supplied my needs. So even though things look a little bleak for me at the moment, I want to trust that God knows what's best for me and that He will always provide.

Yes, "it is more blessed to give than to receive". I give to others because Jesus has first given His life for me freely. So freely receive, freely give. Thank You Jesus!
