Life's simple pleasure

Do right when you are all alone... This statement has been a struggle for me alone at home. Yet doing right things is always right.

Been quite awhile since I last blogged. Somewhat reluctant I guess.
Last Friday was the release of the A level results. Thank God so letting me pass everything. Didnt do that well, which I had somewhat expected.
My dad was telling me before I went off to school that day that if I really do badly, he will not scold or anything, asking me to retake if can. What a loving father I have despite all the high expectations he had placed one me, being the oldest of the family. Thank God.
Anyway hard work sure pay off when you study for A level. (Something I am guilty of not having consistently). Seen it all in my classmates.

On to the idea of wrong and right, attended bro. yaohe and sis. yaling wedding on Saturday. It was one wedding where God takes center-stage, not the couple, Praise God. There is this simple message shared by a pastor, on a idea of wife never being wrong (may not be the exact words):
1. Your wife is never wrong
2. If you think she is wrong, you seen wrongly
3. Even if you really think she is wrong, and have not seen wrongly, then you must be wrong
4. If she is truly wrong, and she tempts you to do wrong, then you are wrong.

So does being wrong means not right? What is perceived by many as right is right? What is lacking is the moderator which is God. Life's simple pleasure- doing right and being right with God- to be in His will.
1 John 2:15-17
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
