Giving our best

It's vital to give our best in whatever we do.
Be it in the smallest things in serving people.
An excerpt from Tevez's report.

"Tevez thanked United fans for showing him their support all season, and said: 'I think English people love me because I do my best every weekend. I have always done my best, as well as in West Ham, Corinthians or Boca shirts."

That is what made him successful. His talents are in the area of football and watching him play is such a joy. And it's no surprise that two of his goals in the premier league are contenders for goal of the season.

I had a lecture this morning on Cultural and Ethical values. It's a good subject! It is about philosophy and throughout the next 12 weeks or so, we're going to examine what the previous philosophers have said. People like Plato, Aristotle and John Locke...

Ha ha. Well, everyone of us is a philosopher in some ways.

Well. Something inspiring.
The Word of God saves the day.
Reading the word of God may sometimes be hard.
We might not even see the purpose of reading it everyday.
However, throughout history, the Word has delivered lives, won battles, restored marriages, made the worst of enemies to best of friends (A great example is WW2) -

"One of the most inspiring stories to come out of World War II is the story of how DeShazer, the Doolittle Raider who bombed Nagoya, met Captain Mitsuo Fuchida, who led the attack on Pearl Harbor, becoming close friends. Fuchida became a Christian in 1950 after reading a tract written about DeShazer titled, I Was a Prisoner of Japan, and spent the rest of his life as a missionary in Asia and the United States. On occasion, DeShazer and Fuchida preached together as Christian missionaries in Japan. In 1959, DeShazer moved to Nagoya to establish a Christian church in the city he had bombed."
-DeShazer died in his sleep exactly 2 months ago, 15 March 2008 at the age of 95.....

I am certainly one of those impacted by the then 92 year old Pauline Jacobi.
As of today, she is 93 years of age.
