Blessings of Giving: Join Our Clothing Donation Project

Proverbs 22: 9 says, “He that has a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he gives of his bread to the poor“. Acts 20: 35 goes on to say, “I have shown you all things, how that so labouring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, it is more blessed to give than to receive“.

Sometime towards the end of last year we embarked on a project of distributing clothes to the needy. It is indeed so touching to see how what you don’t need anymore can be a blessing to someone else. We will be doing the same somewhere in March. The exact date will be communicated in due course. We intend to give off some school shoes. The school shoes are strictly brand new, unlike the clothing items. Whoever is moved to give a helping hand can be in touch with us through our `contact us` link. Things going according to plan, we also intend to give out a few grocery parcels also. Let’s make a difference in society. God bless.

Learn and Adapt: Reflections for the New Year

A new year will always come at the end of every year. This is a point where we look at what worked in the past year. That which worked, we optimise. What did not work can be looked at in several different ways: 1 it did not take off the ground completely, 2 it did go off the ground, but failed, or 3, it worked, albeit not to expected results. Each case should be treated to its merits. That which did not go off the ground was either a poor plan, or it was poorly planned for. We either plan anew or we abandon it. That which got off the ground but failed could have been poorly executed. We could either abandon it or re-strategise a better execution. That which worked but did not reach expectations should just be reworked and optimised.

In a nutshell, we look at everything with a sober eye and get back to the grinding wheel. It helps to take experiential lessons as we go and continue going. Stopping and losing focus should not be an option. Galatians 6: 9; Hebrews 12: 1. Season’s greetings!
