What Goes Around Comes Around

Ecclesiastes 11:1

Do good things everywhere you go. After a while the good you do will return to help you.

Indeed, nobody knows their future. 

Thirty years ago, who knew the Internet would become as worldwide as it is?

Who would have imagined the way we celebrated Christmas in 2020 would be totally different from the previous years?

At the beginning of 2020, who would have thought Covid19 would spread widely to all the nations worldwide and affect the world badly?

You will never know, maybe one of your classmates is going to be the president of Singapore!

This Bible verse tells us to do good wherever you go and wherever you are because the good things you have done in the past, will come back to you and help you when you are in need. 

What goes around comes around. Childhood and youth are such a wonderful phase that will only be around for a limited period of time. Cherish your childhood and youth with good deeds and don't waste it with bad deeds. God gives the gift of childhood and youth, so rejoice and be glad in it. With God holding your future, in addition to all the good deeds you do, surely a bright future awaits you. 

Prayer

Dear God, let me live my childhood and youth by doing what You want me to do. Let me use this opportunity to spread kindness to others. Amen.
