A pastor (张小华牧师) together with a team of church elders including his wife visited us from Johore today. He delivered a very encouraging sermon in the Sunday service based on Matthew 6:25-34.
25 "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?26 "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
27 "Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
28 "So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;
29 "and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 "Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 "Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
32 "For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
33 "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
34 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
We went for lunch at Cheong Wah Seafood Restaurant, Pusat Bandar Puchong after the service. We expected to have two tables initially but many more church members turned up for lunch and we ended up having 5 tables. This means almost half of the church member who came for the service came for lunch as well :-)
Again, the dishes served were delicious and the portion was huge. I believe most of us enjoyed the lunch very much :-)
5 tables in a row - giving the restaurant a big income unexpectedly
Fried egg with oyster - a very nice dish
The oysters are big!
Fish head curry
Luffa and bean curd
Roasted duck with chicken
Braised spare rib (浙江排骨) - very nice. Only serve on certain day.
Vegetables
